Beam me to Planet Gore !

[DannyTN]

Drudgereport is headlining three stories this morning

Climategate: 'Greatest scandal in modern science'...
Call for Congressional investigation...
Paper: Junk science exposed among climate-change believers...

This story has legs.

[Sacajaweau]

See Mr. Gore...Not all americans are stupid....

[Red Badger]

The “Hockey Stick” is BULL HOCKEY!.............

Maybe we should call it the HOKEY STICK!................

[Logic n' Reason]

I understand the Nobel Committee has been calling algore for the past two days. They want their $1,000,000 back.

algore won't answer the phone.

[P-Marlowe]

The "trick" consists of selectively mixing two different kinds of data—temperature "proxies" from tree rings and actual thermometer measurements—in a way designed to produce a graph of global temperatures that ends the way the global warming establishment wants it to: with an upward "hockey stick" slope.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, plants will grow faster so tree rings will be bigger. So even in declining temperature environments, tree rings will be greater than in periods where carbon dioxide is minimized.

I would think that evidence of larger tree rings regardless of the climate would be a good thing. IOW higher levels of Carbon Dioxide is GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

[Thrownatbirth]

Tracinski sums it up best:

The damage here goes far beyond the loss of a few billions of taxpayer dollars on bogus scientific research. The real cost of this scam is the trillions of dollars of wealth that will be destroyed if a fraudulent theory is used to justify legislation that starves the global economy of its cheapest and most abundant sources of energy.

This is the scandal of the century. It needs to be thoroughly investigated—and the culprits need to be brought to justice.

The carbon credit market will implode once this scandal takes off.

[Star Traveler]

The [CRU] e-mails show, among many other things, private admissions of doubt or scientific weakness in the global warming theory. In acknowledging that global temperatures have actually declined for the past decade, one scientist asks, "where the heck is global warming?... The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't." They still can't account for it; see a new article in Der Spiegel: "Climatologists Baffled by Global Warming Time-Out." I don't know where these people got their scientific education, but where I come from, if your theory can't predict or explain the observed facts, it's wrong.

If you saw the video documentary on "Anthropogenic Global Warming" below, you already knew that. Now make sure everyone around you knows that...

See the video below for documentation ... :-)

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.

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

"The GRL leak may have been plugged up now with new editorial leadership there."

This is simply Stalinism, not science.

[McKayopectate]

I’ve been really enjoying rubbing this in the face of my Global Warming (so-called) friends. Is that bad of me?

[The Great RJ]

Al Gore's “consensus of scientists” is exposed as simply a group of unscrupulous global warming believers manipulating data to produce the results they expect and using their authority to suppress the facts that do not support their model. Gore is a charlatan.

[Republic of Texas]

Global Warming is a religion, a cult which requires no facts, only faith.

[Joe 6-pack]

I hate to be the cynic, but sometimes cynicism and realism fall into alignment. I know this story has gotten a fair deal of traction in Europe, but apart from a few conservative sites and talk radio, there's been dead silence on this story in the U.S. I look at how the Rockefeller Memorandum played out a few years ago, when bald faced admissions were made that the Dems were going to use the Senate Intelligence committee data for outright political purposes. The media manipulated the story in such a way that the deliberate misuse of the data was a non-story, and the "scandal" became all about how the memorandum fell into the hands of GOP staffers. I suspect a similar course for this story. Our culture has been so saturated with the global warming myth that virtually every person has heard the phrase, and may give more or less credence to it. The truth is, most Americans have never, nor ever will hear about the "CRU emails" and will dismiss it as a sideline story in the ongoing debate...reading the details would just take too much work.

I wish it were not true, and certainly, I'll do my share in the Sisyphean task of trying to educate my acquaintances, but even as startling as these revelations should be to thinking people, I suspect they will be of little import when it comes to results. < /wet blanket>

[thirst4truth]

This is a collapse of the biggest cult to ever emerge. There must be many "believers" looking for a new god because mother earth, temporarily, has just been saved.

Now I can put my favorite bumber sticker on my car without it being keyed:

Stop Global Whining

[ArtDodger]

I notice these type of articles are carefully avoiding using Al Gore’s name, even though he must be at the heart of this matter.
You can bet there are major scrubbing operations going on in computers all over the globe...

[driftless2]

My local lib rag, The La Crosse (Wis) Tribune, has not yet printed anything about the scandal. Or barely anything at all about anything that contradicts the global warming hysteria. However it has printed today a very large article by Seth Borenstein (AP) about how the results of AGW have been much worse than feared. Big Lib Media is a quite willing accomplice in the scam.

[ChessExpert]

I invented the internet and I invented Global Warming.
