Also note, from the article posted in post 3 above:
One government scientist who worked on the report, Katharine Hayhoe, a professor of political science at Texas Tech University, called the conclusions among the most comprehensive climate science reports to be published. Another scientist involved in the process, who spoke to The New York Times on the condition of anonymity, said he and others were concerned that it would be suppressed.
Clearly a political science scientist would be an expert on the weather... (/sarc)
You beat me to it.
