Press Gaggle by Press Secretary Robert Gibbs; Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economic Affairs Mike Froman; and Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Carol Browner
Press Secretary’s Office
EXCERPTED TODAY_____________________ PRESS CONFERENCE...##########
Q What’s your reaction to the British e-mails that have come out recently?
MS. BROWNER: I’ve read them. I don’t know that I have a reaction.
Q The Copenhagen talks are going from December 8th to the — or 7th to the 20th — 18th, something around that. And 65 heads of state will be attending at the end. Will the fact that Obama does not plan to be there make any agreement politically binding — or a political agreement at that point less legitimate?
MR. FROMAN: I think the President going to Copenhagen will give positive momentum to the negotiations, and we think will enhance the prospects for success.
Q Who will go then at the end?
MS. BROWNER: We’re releasing it today — we have a whole delegation of Cabinet members and other top officials who will be in attendance throughout the conference.
Q Will Al Gore go?
MS. BROWNER: I don’t know. You’d have to ask him.
Q Okay. But not as part of the delegation?
MR. GIBBS: I don’t know where he’s spending the night, either. (Laughter.)
MS. BROWNER: The U.S. delegation is made up of Cabinet members and senior White House officials, and we’re releasing that list today. Are we releasing when they’ll be there, the main —
MR. FROMAN: Yes.
MS. BROWNER: Yes, they’re coming at various different times throughout the two weeks, so you’ll see all of that. I think we have, what, six or seven Cabinet members going.
Q I hate to back you up on this, but those e-mails — I know they’re controversial, but they’re actually feeding the run-up to Copenhagen. You might have read them, but you know basically the gist of them, which is being used by opponents of this deal to say that the whole thing is made up. But you have to have more than just “I don’t have any reaction.”
MS. BROWNER: Well, first of all, we’ve all seen bits and pieces, we haven’t seen the full e-mails. But I think more importantly there has been for a very long time a very small group of people who continue to say this isn’t a real problem, that we don’t need to do anything. On the other hand, we have 2,500 of the world’s foremost scientists who are in absolute agreement that this is a real problem and that we need to do something and we need to do something as soon as possible.
What am I going to do, side with the couple of naysayers out there, or the 2,500 scientists? I’m sticking with the 2,500 scientists. I mean, these people have been studying this issue for a very, very long time, and agree that the problem is real.
Never on my watch said: “Boy, Ill bet Algore regrets inventing the internet now...”
LOL literally. I think i just woke up the entire family! Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you don’t mind if I use this one at the dinner table today. I wonder what my lib-algoreobama bot ‘intellectual’ relatives will say about this story.
From what I understand, programs were created to “fix” data to represent their findings. Amazing, the arrogance. “Scientists” who know better than the facts.
We need to write to our representatives about making laws based on this data.
Any suggestions from someone with more technical understanding of this info?
The only thing man made about global warming is the HOAX behind it-!
My new term is: Man made-up Global Warming.
??????????????????

how about some of you pocket protector....taped together glasses types convert it to plain American.
A bunch of lawyers just found some work lets says thousands
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Gore
Within one month of taking office President Obama secured $80 billion for renewable energy and green infrastructure and then just
two weeks ago the House of Representatives passed the Waxman-Markey Bill also known as the American Clean Energy and Security Act which for all of its flaws does put a price on carbon and is very much a step in the right direction.
Worse than the collusion shown in the emails.
When tha actual evidence doesn’t support your very important story, a story much too important to fail — just make it up. Dan Rather, the MSM, and the Democrats fully affirm this methodology.
LOL. First the AGW movement was a jobs program for thousands of useless “environmental studies” majors..... now it turns out to be a remarkable “jobs program” for the countless thousands of lawyers who will be retained on both sides of this unraveling mess!
Wouldn't you just love to see inside the Fed and Treasury Department's source code?
Spot on!
We have all been wronged in this.
We have all suffered negative financial effects from this.
We all will suffer future harm from this deliberate fraud.
These people need to be prosectuted, jailed, and lose their credentials for collusion to defraud nearly every person, company, and government in the civilized world.....
.....Then they need to pay damages.
Any company or government that was in-the-know with regard to the data manipulation and/or supression of opposing data and journal articles should face the same.
Perfect!
For those of us who are not tecchies - the best analogy to describe the chicken little climate clymers who are in full throttle denial....
think of them as having been cuckolded by a cheating spouse....ignoring the signs and always the last to know - so it will take time for the betrayal to sink in.
those of us, the skeptics, always knew who was skrooing whom and we must be patient and willing to treat the wounded with some whoopass!!!!
This makes the ponzie guys look like pikers. There is real money here
Even lowlife Bernie Madoff was “only” messing around with $50 billion or so.... these AGW frauds have been trying to control TRILLIONS of $$$.... I don’t know what the tab is that they’ve run up so far but I’m sure that it’s a big number and still growing.
I seem to recall a study that showed the computer model developed by Mann that produced the touchstone “hockey stick” graph would generate the same graph regardless of what data was inserted including purely random numbers.
