Good news has been in short supply of late in the US. But today's op-ed in the WSJ by Kim Straassel is bound to bring a rare smile in today's "climate".
Despite the FA resident warmists, insisting this is much ado about nothing, even one of the most vocal alarmists and stiflers of debate by "climate criminals" - UK's George Monbiot - admits that the CRU absconded database becoming public is a "major blow" to advancing climate change legislation. Even going so far as to say the documents "... "could scarcely be more damaging."
Conversely, the big Zero's "climate czar", Carole Browner, is busy publicly plugging her ears to the scandal, hoping it will simply go away.
As is becoming more common for news reporting today, the internet is leading the charge, defining the talking head production segments of news. When the blogosphere is alive and active on an issue, invariably the talking heads are forced to follow. And between the CRU's database becoming public knowledge... meticulously combed thru by all types of interesting parties (including our own Patvann and family).... combined with New Zealand's NIWA also being accused of unexplanable fudging of raw temperature measurements... this is an issue that is not only *not* going away, but is destined to destroy any thread of hope that the December Copenhagen climate convention would culminate in anything but another toothless resolution of promises and intents. Their next best hope would be Mexico City in 2010... highly unlikely at the undeniable cost to American taxpayers in a mid term election year. And, as I pointed out late October, much of the success of Copenhagen depended upon Obama and the US Congress, implementing American emissions legislation.
The emergence of manipulated data from both CRU and NIWA into public domain has all but dashed the hopes of Congressional Dems and Obama for cap and trade legislation. The thin margin of victory for cap and trade in the House this year may have left the realms of bragging rights, and entered into a campaign issue that may have to be explained away.
But wait... there's more.

What did they expect. Inflate a balloon big enough and somebody’s eventually gonna stick a pin in it.
BUMP for excellence!
Still waiting for a response from ABC.CBS,NBC,CNN. What say yee?....{que the crickets}
Wow! Republican gut check! Love it.
Happy Holiday !!
Everytime the msm and FOX put one of these CRU apologist on.... All I can think of is LIAR.
Free the data... Free the data... Free the Birth Certificate... Free the data... Free the data... Free the data... Oh, and by the way, let’s...... Free Tibet ... Free the Birth Certificate ...
Black Friday/AGW Indepenance day, I like it!
The books that were cooked with Enron, those responsible were persecuted, those who cooked the books on the Global Warming Scam, “ WE KNOW NOTHING... WE DENY ANYTHING HAPPEN .. NEVER HAPPENED... IT’s STILL SETTLED SCEINCE ...”...
On the other hand, Dr Michael Mann of Penn State invented the famed "hockey Stick" graph used by Climate Alarmists.
Both centered their lives upon crime.
Not to put a damper on things but... (pessimistic view to be sure):
We may just get past this “big lie” unscathed but the truth is the Left will never quit with these pseudo science/populist scenarios. I have ask they own the educational institutions and people aren’t’ getting better and better educations... In fact the opposite is true. So what will be the next “big lie” and will we be able to stop it with an ever dumber middle class?
Your assignment, Mr. Phelps, should you choose to accept it, is to make sure that none of the AGW scandal appears on the SRM. Mr. Phelps, why are you shaking your head? Don’t walk away, come back, come back here and take the folder. Mr. Phelps?

This?
"Does this mean we can have our incandescent light bulbs back?"
...is going to become the rallying cry that helps drag this swindle into the light of day.
And yes, it is a swindle- a fraud and a cheat and a scam-- a deliberately designed construct intended to con you out of things you hold dear-- money, prosperity, freedom... and a few other things, as well.
I'm keeping a running file ( always updated ) on this fraud and scandal:
"Hadley CRU has apparently been hacked [epic fraud?]"

Why would I want to make crickets stand in a line??
