Heil Heidi said that any mneteorologist whoquestions the anthropogenic global warming theory should be decertified.

No, that is not what she said, at any time. I supplied the exact quote in post 33. What you said was from a different source. A nice illustration about the usefulness of consulting the original sources instead of secondhand.

Actually, she did, as you know.

Your sources:
the socialist former Vice President
some chick on TV who wants to decertify anyone who dares to disagree with her opinion
the left-wing, America-hating UN
Grist Magazine
several left-wing political orgnizations.

The article's sources:

Jonah Goldberg
the February 8 issue of the Los Angeles Times
Dr. Timothy Ball, a doctor of climatology and Chairman of the Natural Resources Stewardship Project
Canada Free Press
the Max Planck Institute
Jack Kelly of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette
physician-scientist-author Michael Crichton
Bjorn Lonborg, a former member of Greenpeace
Fred Singer and Dennis Avery, authors of Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years
Professor Bob Carter of the Marine Geophysical Laboratory at James Cook University in Australia
Professor Tim Patterson of Carleton University
Vladimir Shaidurov of the Russian Academy of Sciences

So which list do you think has a higher degree of reliability?

Well...

"Dr. Heidi Cullen, a 'Climate Expert' for cable TV's 'The Weather Channel' believes that the cause of global warming is man-made. If you are a meteorologist, you too should agree. So sayeth Dr. Cullen.

An item from EPW points to a Cullen blog entry from December, (she hosts the weekly global warming program "The Climate Code") and she is advocating that the American Meteorological Society (AMS) revoke their "Seal of Approval" for any television weatherman who expresses skepticism that human activity is creating a climate catastrophe.

It appears that she is serious. Does she really wish to try to silence critics and stifle dissent?"

The article goes on to quote Heil Heidi as saying, "maybe the AMS shouldn't give them a Seal of Approval."

So it looks like Heil Heidi did say it. But this kind of intolerance of discussion is what I hvae come to expect from the pro-anthropogenicist side. I've sadly come to expect them to try to stifle any speech that disagrees with tehir opinion, and sadly, they keep living up to that expectation.
