Phelim McAleer is an investigative journalist who spends much of his time debunking the Global Warming hoax. It was McAleer who asked a question of Al Gore a few months ago that caused the former VP's head to start melting (video at end of this post). McAleer is also the director and producer of Not Evil Just Wrong documentary which looks at how environmental extremism is damaging the lives of the most economically vulnerable populations (see trailer below)
Today the "Global Warming Mafia" gave new credence to the charges raised by Climategate, that there has been a concerted effort to cover-up dissenting voices. Because that's exactly what they did to McAleer when he asked some inconvenient questions during a press briefing at the climate change conference in Copenhagen.

The disgusting overweight overbearing UN security guard needs to be named and asked questions as to WHO told him to be such a jerk and where he thought he got the authority to order a journalist to turn off his camera.
Here’s an author who won’t comment on emails that “might have been edited.” In this case he should shut up about his own book too, because it certainly was edited.

The Climate Control Consortium orders:

The fact that we don’t have about 8-10 million loyal Americans marching on Washington right now in the bitter cold does not bode well. Elections may not be enough at this point. We are running out of time before these lunatics dictate exactly how many calories you will eat each day as well as every other aspect of your life.
Oh,...this is a biggie...Video of this incident and also when he asked Gore THE question...at the website....
On the one hand, as scientists we are ethically bound to the scientific method, in effect promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but - which means that we must include all doubts, the caveats, the ifs, ands and buts. On the other hand, we are not just scientists but human beings as well. And like most people wed like to see the world a better place, which in this context translates into our working to reduce the risk of potentially disastrous climate change. To do that we need to get some broad based support, to capture the publics imagination. That, of course, means getting loads of media coverage. So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we might have. This double ethical bind we frequently find ourselves in cannot be solved by any formula. Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest. I hope that means being both.I think that frustration he mentions is exactly what fueled the Phil Jones Cabal's bunker mentality. But what he and they failed to separate is that that behavior is not science. It's activism.--Stephen H. Schneider, Ph.D.; interview for Discover, October 1989.
