Here’s Chris Horner from the other day on Fox News. I like him:
Fox News: Calls for Investigation of Climategate Grow

In his book “Red Hot Lies” Christopher Horner discusses the EXACT tack this guy Howard Gould would take on the Fox news video discussion you linked to. It is apparently old hat to Horner, and evident to anyone who has paid attention to the alarmist refutations of Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming skeptics such as Chris Horner.
Here is Gould’s argument:
1.) The science is settled. These skeptics don’t have any arguments. (This is the equivalent of “I’m right and you’re wrong...end of argument!”
2.) It is only a miniscule number of people who don’t buy into man-made catastrophic global warming. “And did I say the argument is settled?” (Gould says: “If you go to 100 doctors and they all say one thing, and one doctor says something else, who should you believe?”
3.) What they usually do is label people who don’t believe in catastrophic global warming to Holocaust Deniers, Flat Earth Society members and Heretics in general. The only thing missing was that we didn’t hear Gould call Horner a “poopyhead”. That’s it, folks.
