So declares Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe, taking a few minutes away from a Thanksgiving retreat with his family. "Ninety-five percent of the nails were in the coffin prior to this week. Now they are all in."
If any politician might be qualified to offer last rites, it would be Mr. Inhofe. The top Republican on the Environment and Public Works Committee has spent the past decade in the thick of Washington's climate fight. He's seen the back of three cap-and-trade bills, rode herd on an overweening Environmental Protection Agency, and steadfastly insisted that global researchers were "cooking" the science behind man-made global warming.
This week he's looking prescient. The more than 3,000 emails and documents from the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit (CRU) that have found their way to the Internet have blown the lid off the "science" of manmade global warming. CRU is a nerve center for many of those researchers who have authored the United Nations' global warming reports and fueled the political movement to regulate carbon.
Their correspondence show a claque of scientists massaging data to make it fit their theories, squelching scientists who disagreed, punishing academic journals that didn't toe the apocalyptic line, and hiding their work from public view. "It's no use pretending that this isn't a major blow," glumly wrote George Monbiot, a U.K. writer who has been among the fiercest warming alarmists. The documents "could scarcely be more damaging." And that's from a believer.

This is encouraging!
Next up, DUMP THE U.N. and tell them to get the hell out my country!
Good, the story and the White House connection is starting to eat at the edges of the MSM.
Gawd! I HOPE and I PRAY! SLAVERY no MORE! Literally!
With this criminals in the majority...I wouldn’t stick my finger in it yet...it’s not done...let’s pray it is.
In light of the scandal, I have no idea why the conference in Copenhagen is still being held. At the very least, it should be postponed until the significance of the scientific fraud can be sorted out. Nonetheless, the lib politicians are pressing forward. Kind of makes you question their true motives.
halellujah!
God bless Inhofe...
You mean we came THIS CLOSE to enacting MASSIVE REGULATION of this magnitude and they are only now finding out these people are frauds????
Don’t they check before they spend our money this stupidly? Or did they know, and are complicit?
Either way... too stupid to risk letting them run health care
Excellent point....
Why is Obama still going to Copenhagen and stating that he will pledge the USA to a 17% decrease.....blah, blah,blah...?
The next step is for congress to investigate every idiot who tried to pass legislation or regulations based on this fraud.
Yea, just like the public option is dead.
Inhofe has done an outstanding job fighting the global warming fraud.
Truth is the last thing they are concerned with. Congressmen are always going on junkets. During this whole health care debate I constantly wondered why extensive fact-finding trips to other countries with government health car weren't scheduled. Why didn't they go see for themselves what worked and what didn't. I am sure that, for the most part, they would not have liked what they saw.
I am still quesy with these crooks running Washington...I hpe Inhofe is not flying his private plane...he had one close call a few years back....and we need this guy to keep the heat on the Obama Gang!
With stakes this high, I would be afraid to cross the street, let alone fly!
This is hilarious. Obama/Boxer will not admit that Sen Inhofe has been right all these years and they have been wrong.
Sen Inhofe has the last laugh on Gore and the liberals who have made millions and millions off of the junk science of global warming.
