I don’t get what the big deal is in this idiot’s “smoking gun” that Heartland was working on science education to offset global warming propaganda! So what. There is no “scientific consensus.” School children should learn both sides of the story.
He really did this to expose the people involved in funding the heartland institute so his pals could harm them and to permit idenity theft of the employees at Heartland. He’s a radical communist and is raging furious that the watermelon plan of taking over the means of production (global oil use, taxation and price controls) for the whole world is exposed.
There is trillions in money for these climate change “scientists” and their alternative energy shake down pals and their global taxation and carbon market pals. He’s a Fascist power monger, greedy bastard.
My opinion on so-called “Global Warming” is the same as Newt Gingrich’s: I know that we don’t have nearly all the facts on this one. What really makes no sense to me is how liberals compare people who disagree with their concensus with those who once insisted the world was flat. Even in the time of Columbus it was possible to prove mathematically that the world was round. Thus far, the scientists who believe the world is getting warmer have been unble to prove their opinion, and so it must remain just that. Even the people I have respected most have turned out to be wrong a good part of the time.

Sara: take a look at post#11 and the posts it refers to for the reason it may turn out to be bigger. There is reason for speculation that NCSE, who had just hired Gleick for the purpose of propagandizing children, could have been involved in the fake memo. Or, at a minimum, NCSE and Desmogblog were apparently mulling over how to generate a “target” for their propaganda activities - a target similar to “Discovery Institute” served for their pro-evolution campaign - and again, a motive for a broader game being played by bigger players than simply Gleick himself. At a minimum, Gleick was not simply frustrated, etc., as he maintained - this was a concerted fraudulent effort to enhance reputation and field of play for both him and NCSE, and it is possible that it involved conspiracy.
