The dinosaur media is not the only repository of news nowadays and not even the most influential anymore.

They can ignore Climategate, but you can be sure Congresspersons and Senators won’t ignore it (their constituents better not let them!) and they will be loathe to approve spending for bills based on fraudulent science. Cap and Tax doesn’t have a prayer of passage now. It was on life support before this.

” and they will be loathe to approve spending for bills based on fraudulent science “

Unfortunately, our elected ‘representatives’ have shown that the only things they’re not going to factor in to their legislation are ‘common sense’, and the wishes of the people they ‘represent’.....

Unless this grows a lot bigger, and more embarrassing, it won’t even be a speed bump....

I pray you're correct. I fear that most don't really care if climate change exists or doesn't. I think they see the new 'green economy' as an equivalent to the dot com days except we'll all be forced by the government to buy new energy star appliances and light bulbs etc. etc. enriching their liberal allies like GE and Dr. Albert Gore.
