Of course the author ends with this paragraph which in effect "favors" global warming advocates :

"It would be great if this were all a big misunderstanding. But we know carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, and we know the planet is hotter than it was a century ago. The skeptics might have convinced each other, but so far they haven't gotten through to the vanishing polar ice."

IT's ALWAYS ABOUT THE VANISHING POLAR ICE or THE VANISHING SNOW AT THE TOP OF MOUNT KILIMANJARO.

Follow the money, Global Warming is too good a vehicle for getting grants and applying total govt control.

The author:

"I can't hear you LA LA LA!"

[BenLurkin]

does not prove that global warming is a fraud. If I'm wrong, somebody ought to tell the polar ice caps that they're free to stop melting.

So....they're back to confusing climate change(a natural phenomena) with man-made climate change (a fraud).

Kinda how the Obama supporters keep trying to play the race card.

If I'm wrong, somebody ought to tell the polar ice caps that they're free to stop melting.

They've stopped melting (see diagram below). And even if they were melting, that would simply mean that the climate was getting warmer, just as it did in the Medieval Warm Period. The article writer needs to find out what the word "Anthropogenic" means.

Stop hyperventilating, all you climate change deniers. The purloined e-mail correspondence published by skeptics last week -- portraying some leading climate researchers as petty, vindictive and tremendously eager to make their data fit accepted theories -- does not prove that global warming is a fraud.

Try "fair and balanced" once and see how it works out for you Washington Post.

You may find that you like it.

If I'm wrong, somebody ought to tell the polar ice caps that they're free to stop melting.

Caught cooking data to shape the conclusion.....

.....they make this claim as if the climate has always been a constant.

The climate has never been constant. A real scientist should know this.

Beam me to Planet Gore !

Not wrong... just too stupid to understand the truth...

[Zeppo]

If I'm wrong, somebody ought to tell the polar ice caps that they're free to stop melting.

In fact, you are wrong, Mr. Don't Bother Me With Facts Robinson - a huge part of the climate change fraud is the unfounded claim that the planet is warmer now than any time during the last 2000 years. But people like you continue to use misdirection to confuse the issue and to gloss over the importance of these emails...

eugene robinson, who wrote this opinion article, is merely an apologist for his discredited, hokey religion of environmentalism.

[STONEWALLS]

....ahhh! the WaPo swings into predictably into action defending the Chicken Littles of global warming....get ready for a similar barrage from the NY Times and LA Times with CBS/NBC/PBS/ABC chiming in.

Uh, My name is Eugene.

Does sort of remind me of the various statements by Dan Rather when the "discovery of the letters regarding 'W's' National Guard were forged, something akin to, "they might be forged, but they're still true!"

If this type of thinking isn't mentally unbalanced, it's very close.

[dirtboy]

The purloined e-mail correspondence published by skeptics last week -- portraying some leading climate researchers as petty, vindictive and tremendously eager to make their data fit accepted theories -- does not prove that global warming is a fraud.

And Mary Mapes says we never proved the TANG memos were bogus. Typical liberal last line of defense - demand we prove a negative. Which means we're winning, because only the hardcores accept such a line of defense. The rest recognize such as pure BS and deflection.

[darkwing104]

He's is correct it isn't a fraud...It's a scam with a dash of conspiracy.

[TruthWillWin]

Condensed bottom line meaning of article =

Don't let facts get in the way of a good scam/fraud to aid creation of more government control.

[WOBBLY BOB]

wrong on so many levels:

***Poll finds nearly 2 in 3 Americans are Manmade Global Warming ‘Deniers’ ***

even if 90% of Americans believe in AGW...”consensus” is not “science”.
