How the world was bullied into silence (global warming coverup)
Canada Free Press ^ | January 19, 2009 | Dr. Tim Ball

Advocates of human caused global warming to take increasingly ridiculous positions to defend the indefensible

One of the most disturbing aspects of the global warming scam is the number of prominent people and entire segments of society bullied into silence. Consider the case of Dr. Joanne Simpson described as follows. “the first woman in the world to receive a PhD in meteorology, and formerly of NASA, who has authored more than 190 studies ... Then consider her statement. “Since I am no longer affiliated with any organization nor receiving any funding, I can speak quite frankly….As a scientist I remain skeptical...

The main basis of the claim that man’s release of greenhouse gases is the cause of the warming is based almost entirely upon climate models. We all know the frailty of models concerning the air-surface system.” No, we don’t all know the frailty of the models! Certainly most of the media and thereby the public and politicians don’t know, otherwise the latter would not be planning completely unnecessary, incredibly expensive and society altering policies. ...“Since I am no longer affiliated with any organization nor receive any funding, I can speak quite frankly.”

Undoubtedly, there are positions and times when people are muzzled; national security is a good example. ... But none of this should apply to science. It’s a measure of the degree to which climate change has become political. It’s also a measure of the degree of bullying that has occurred. Why would a scientist in an organization directly involved in climate science not feel free to speak out? But they are not the only ones who have kept quiet. Entire segments of society have either remained silent or taken evasive action. Few had the courage to even ask for a full and open debate. ...

I knew Global Warmism was a complete fraud when I noticed all the luxury private jets and chauffered limos at all the Al Gore conferences.

Ping for my hypothesis about the questionable ‘peer review’ process.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

If you have not seen the video of Al Gore ominously predicting the demise of the Polar Ice Cap, you have to watch this video on Youtube. Mark your calendars, Al has set a timetable for us!

The Polar Ice Cap Will Be Gone in 5 Years

~ Al Gore

Gore-Bull Warming
Al Gore says that the polar ice cap will be completely gone in 5 years!

If this stuff were true, there is no way the Al Gore would get in a corporate jet. If the leaders won’t adopt the plan, why should we consider them honest?

Without that small amount of CO2, the earth would be pretty much frozen solid.

Take a look at pictures from the Obama campaign and McCain's "campaign." I've added quotes around the word "campaign" when it comes to McCain because it was really a very successful Trojan Horse effort to elect Obama, not a genuine campaign. When traveling on the ground each traveled in a fleet of oversize (mostly Chevy Suburbans) SUVs. Now Obama is getting a new virtual tank from GM as his limo. Yep, they really do believe in AGW (sarc. off).

This whole scam is/was only possible with the full consent of the MSM.
These people, for years, have their credibility riding on global warming by jumping on this bandwagon for reasons of sensationalism driving profits.
Hard to get off and lose customers/viewers loyalty and trust.

When a bureaucrat convinces a politician of a scientific position, as Hansen has so forcefully done with Gore and Obama, and they make it a major part of their political positions he is on a treadmill.

He has to keep spinning the story and avoid the facts while increasing the threats.

Hansen is proving himself to be an ideologue and NOT a scientist.

A real scientist would not make ANY claim until he was sure based on real evidence (not models).

A real scientist would take evidence that does not line up with a previous hypothesis and carefully study it further.

Hansen needs to be fired for incompetence and jailed for attempted fraud on the free world.
