California Sen. Barbara Boxer has taken an odd position in regards to the latest developments in climate science. The publication of hundreds of e-mails between some of the world's leading climate researchers is proving to be an embarrassment to the proponents of man-made global warming.
In the emails, scientists appear to be encouraging each other to keep their stories straight about global warming while discussing strategies to discredit opposing views and deal with data points that inconveniently fail to support the correct conclusion: that human activity have caused a permanent increase in the world's temperatures.
You might think that the embarrassment accompanying the disclosure of these emails—even the liberal Jon Stewart is making fun of them on The Daily Show—would generate at least a pause in the adopt legislation that will cause billions of dollars to be sucked out of the American economy and kill thousands of jobs here at home. And you'd be wrong.
Boxer, who chairs the Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works and is a leading legislative proponent of anti-climate change legislation, has not even missed a step toward her eventual goal. Rather than deal with the allegation she intends, to paraphrase the old joke, to go after "the alligator."
According to published reports Boxer—rather than examine whether the e-mails are proof of a conspiracy within the scientific community to prove global warming exists despite the data, as some have alleged—wants her committee to go after the people who released the e-mails, calling it a criminal matter.
Describing the e-mails—taken from computers at the Climate Research Unit at England's University of East Anglia—as "stolen," Boxer said her committee might hold hearings designed to determine who stole them and how, despite claims that they are the product of whistleblowing.
"We may well have a hearing on this, we may not. We may have a briefing for senators, we may not," Boxer said. "Part of our looking at this will be looking at a criminal activity which could have well been coordinated," she said, announcing a diversionary tactic that could give the scientists who may have perpetrated a scientific fraud of greater significance than the "Piltdown Man" a free pass.
Someone has her priorities out of whack.
Global warming, uh, er, I mean “climate change”: Biggest. Scam. Ever.
Follow the money.
How much you want to bet that Babs and the global progressives had plans to become extra super rich off of the global warming scam?
My guess is that the leaked emails were the first drops that indicate an ocean of info is available. Indictable info.
......Indictable info.....
What a wonderful phrase. Roll it around. Get the feel of it on your tounge.
indictable info that is INDICTABLE INFO
It is going to be a great new year.
There is indictable info

Can’t let a little thing like TRUTH get in our way to ram socialism up the back-side of the American people can we???
&itch!
Despite Lack of Brain Boxer Undeterred In Jaw Flapping
Aren’t the emails and other information just a release of information that needed to be released for Freedom of Information Act requests already pending?
Goodbye Boxer. Be sure to check your pension and goodies at the door when you leave without them.
An example of why, although I grew up reading USN&WR, I never subscribed. I will neither weep nor cheer when they go under; they are not worthy of either: good riddance to trash.
Boxer might simply be stupid, with evil people using her. She certainly doesn’t come across as intelligent.
[[You might think that the embarrassment accompanying the disclosure of these emails]]
Au contraire. It’s impossible to embarrass the far left liberals- Shame is a foreign word to them
Inhofe made her put her neck on the chopping blockl by throwing this issue at her feet- and she’s proving once and for all that when a far left moves their lips- they are LYING- and showing that we can never again trust ANYTHING that either climatologists tell us, or what the far left say- Inhofe is lettign htem sink their own skiff, and sadly, they can’t even recognize that they are doign so
IF even liberal ‘comics’ like stewart make fun of her ignroance, and she doesn’t get the message that she is just diggign herself deeper and deeper, then I’m afraid there is no hope for any kind of sanity coming from her addled mind again

This is a well-written summary to pass around to those who are less familiar with the recent events and their ramifications. I did change “correct conclusion” to “their desired conclusion” to make it even clearer.
And yes, I grew-up in San Fran and the Bay Area.
These 3 goons have never and will never make a positive difference, politically. They only seek to ruin. And San Fran has been ruined by libs. The most beautiful City in the world has been ruined by libs. Newsome and the new clan are the garbage men and they are just as bad as any lib ever wanted to be.
Of course it’s not going to stop her, she’s sucked up her own ass.
She knows she has found a goldmine, how to screw the public and extract more taxes.
