It appears that CNN is now going all in on its assertion that there is no climate change debate. Despite the absurdity of a news organization openly declaring that it is closed to any arguments to the contrary, the CNN Newsroom anchor Carol Costello has proudly declared her mind closed on this topic. In an opinion piece published at CNN.Com, Costello boldly took pride in her refusal to consider facts contrary to her belief in the very first sentence: "There is no debate."
Got that? Cased closed and so is her mind as she went on to prove:

Yes, they are.

True.
I happen to be a "real scientist". I'm not a climate expert, however I do seem to recall that for a phenomenon to be explained by anything more than an hypothesis, it requires rigorous testing.
"Global warming" and/or "climate change" to my mind appear to be inadequately tested hypotheses. As such, they/it would require much more rigorous testing (including funding the skeptics to do their best) and inviting the results to be presented in well-known scientific forums.
There is no such thing as "settled science"; and, if there were, it would only be after fair and thorough investigations and open debates, and would necessarily involve lengthy, fair deliberative process. (And even then, contrary opinions and evidence would STILL be welcomed and not ridiculed).
Unless someone can convince me differently (and I invite opposing views) global warming does not even describe an observable phenomenon, only some aggressively tweeked models.

That is the beauty of Global Climate Change.™ It is so much more flexible than Global Cooling or Global Warming ever were.
Is it warmer than usual today? That is proof of Global Climate Change.™
Is it colder than usual today? That is proof of Global Climate Change.™
Is it wetter than usual today? That is proof of Global Climate Change.™
Is it dryer than usual today? That is proof of Global Climate Change.™
Is it cloudier, less cloudy, windier, less windy? It doesn't matter! No matter what the weather happens to be, it is proof of Global Climate Change.™
Everything is proof of Global Climate Change.™ Nothing is evidence against it.
Of course, it is all Bush's fault. Bush and those damned SUVs. Womyn and minorities will be hardest hit.
Thank Algore that a solution has been found. All we need is more central government control. This time, communism will work!
I bet there are at least 5 copies of books written by Goebbels in every newsroom. The Leftists have to refer to them often.
Probably a lot of Soviet propaganda instructions too.

No matter how effing cold it gets.
LOL.

Well, it’s true that there isn’t much debate, but her beliefs are still moronic. Maybe if there was some debate, she might (very very long odds, I admit) learn something. But when debate is outlawed, only outlaws will have debates!
