Better look at the drudgereport there seems to be a lot of people that disagree and call for resignations and more giving in to the wackos...

No bias here. Yep. The author of the article spends much of it actually ridiculing "the skeptics". So much for a hard analysis.

Just one more instance of the narcissism and self- absorption of the Boomer generation.
Don't pay attention to the fact we were deadf wrong about the Ice Age we predicted back in the 70s, global warming is OUR IDEA so it MUST BE RIGHT.
And besides, Global Warming's our "religion" so you must not disagree with our matter of faith.

A couple of weeks back I heard a climatologist warn of the extremes of El Nino and La Nina then continued on and warned of the exremes that happen between the two weather patterns.
BEWARE THE EXTREME NORMAL

Climatology is the short bus of science. Sorry, it has to be said. We ain't talking particle physics here.

The ComPost actually printed something showing that there is an opposing view to the Liberal orthodoxy? I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you!

the entire Left, who is the main advocate of global warming,
is a hoax.
That there are climate changes and cycles is not doubted. The point is, as Dick Morris likes to say, that the Left uses the changes in climate to scare us into accepting their version of how we should all live.
What I would like to see is for the environmentalists to be forced to live the way they say the rest of us should live.

Unfortunately skeptics are in a no-win situation. If temperatures rise - blame it on global warming. If temperatures fall - still blame it on global warming.

"Hansen thinks we have less than 10 years to make drastic cuts in greenhouse emissions, lest we reach a "tipping point" at which the climate will be out of our control."
Earth-to-Hansen: The climate was never in our control.
