Global Warming With the Lid Off [WSJ on Climategate]
Wall St Journal | Editorial

Posted on 11/24/2009 1:41:31 AM PST by The Raven

...

Yet even a partial review of the emails is highly illuminating. In them, scientists appear to urge each other to present a "unified" view on the theory of man-made climate change while discussing the importance of the "common cause"; to advise each other on how to smooth over data so as not to compromise the favored hypothesis; to discuss ways to keep opposing views out of leading journals; and to give tips on how to "hide the decline" of temperature in certain inconvenient data.

Does this mean that Melissa Etheridge won't be performing her Grammy Award winning hit song “An Inconvenient Truth” anymore? The song is truly one of the greatest songs ever written. Everyone I know owns the single. The song has such a catchy melody and the lyrics are incredibly deep.

(sarc)

Remember, Carter disbanded the CIA assassination squads. IMO, these characters would have presented a target rich environment for them, or in their parlance, an environmental change greatly needed.

I wonder how (the snake oil salesman) Michael Mann feels about the Prestige Media today?

Petition the Law Makers to Stop this Scam

It’s time to put this rest
The IPCC did their best
But no one is buying their BS
CO2 Lags Temperature
The ice has shown
The Hot Spot in the Atmosphere ran off with the Heat in the Oceans
And can’t be found
Hockey Stick is Broken and the MWP is UP Side Down
The 60’s were warmer than 2009. The trend line is against us The Team thundered
Then they sliced and diced until it’s under.
They said the debate was closed.
And they control the “Journals” you know
They hid the data with a frown.
If found out, The Team goes down
The Team’s goose cooked like they cooked the Books.
They’re no better than the Eron Crooks.
They’ll say they did it for prestige and pride
And, of course, a big slice of the money pie

So, make your case CO2, that “Evil Gas”, Rules the Climate if you can
Or declare CO2 a non pollutant
And take it out of EPA’s Hand

Petition the Law Makers to Stop this Scam

I hope the e-mails will show that Global Warming is a scam....but so many have too much invested in the fraud

In modernesque terminology: It is a fraud that is too big to fail.

lol

Too many are still going to try to bleed as much money as they can out of gw. That includes businesses, institutions that depend on grants, scientists, politicians.

Gw has grown into a big business, just like ACORN has.

I jokenly said it was 'too big to fail', but that may turn out to not be a joke. Those businesses, institution, politicians will find ways to divert and rename funds. Maybe they can find a looming potential for disaster -- maybe a flu pandemic, for example. [ /s ]

Yep, that's been shown in this video documentary below... :-)


It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...

THEREFORE..., it’s also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply one video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the one...


The following is an excellent video documentary on the so-called “Global Warming” I would recommend it to all FReepers. It’s a very well-made documentary.

“The Great Global Warming Swindle”

If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link. Information about BitTorrent protocol and BitTorrent clients and their comparison at these three links (in this sentence). Some additional BitTorrent information here and here.

Download it here...
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3635222/The_Great_Global_Warming_Swindle
[This is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size. This link is the information about it, and you have to click the download link to get it on your BitTorrent client software. You'll also find users' comments here, too.]

It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.

Also, see it online here...
http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/great_global_warming_swindle.php
[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course..., and also, you can download flash video on a website either yourself or some software doing it.]

Buy it on DVD here...
[this would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...] At Amazon, it seems to be high-priced now and have only a few copies right now.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WLUXZE

At WAGtv (a UK shop), but don't know about shipping. The price is reasonable, though.

[And..., some information from WAGtv about this item.]

A failure of integrity led by Brits, imagine that.

Imagine what is going on with these people right now, the vision is thrilling!

I, and many others, said that the global warming political hacks did not have the data to support their conclusions. We said it for years. Now we are proven correct. I do not want satisfaction.

I want blood.

I endured every kind of insult imaginable for making my claim and standing by it. I can honestly say that those on my side would have endured less animosity if we had been outed as members of the Ku Klux Klan.

Let’s start with Penn State. The evidence that the university provided false information for political gain is clear. This science is settled. Michael Mann and his conspirators falsified data, lied about conclusions, suppressed dissent, slandered their opposition, and behaved like Nazis to prove their claims about the untermenschen. Stalinist Russia would be proud.

Peer review is supposed to make sure that this does not happen. The academic system is supposed to ensure that scientists who make false claims will not have the seeming approval of major universities and research departments to lend them credibility. Penn State failed in this regard, and it failed in the worst possible way.

Penn State’s academic committees ignored Mann’s refusal to release his data, as well as obvious signs that he had something to hide. I hold that entire institution responsible, as well as any other university system that was involved. They failed to see this for what it is. I submit that they failed because they wanted to fail, not because they were lazy or stupid. I submit that they sought power at the cost of accuracy and veracity, which means that any research completed by them must bear questionable conclusions.

Peer review at Penn State was a yay - hoo chorus whose theme was that they would sell any truth to whatever lie provided the most money and the most power. That institution, as a whole, must be discarded. Those responsible should find employment digging ditches.

They are not the only ones who whould suffer this fate.
