My question is, if the yearly average global temperature dropped for 10 years in a row, would the Settled Science leaders report it?
Stalin said, it doesn’t matter who votes, only who counts the votes.
Likewise, it doesn’t matter what the thermometers display, only who does the thermometer reading.

To see that AGW is fraudulent you need only consider that the cranks concerned about it propose the same solution - world government and global taxes with them in charge - as they did back when global cooling was the big fright. If a problem and its opposite are both ‘solved’ by the same action then the ‘problem’ isn’t a ‘problem’.
There is a town in Alberta, Canada with the evocative name of Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump. It takes its name from a geologic feature that North American Indians used to hunt bison. The Indians would stealthily arrange themselves around a herd of bison and, at a signal, jump up and alarm the herd into a stampede. By their strategic positioning, the Indians would cause the herd to stampede over a cliff (the buffalo jump) thus killing or sufficiently injuring the animals so that they’d be short work for Indians waiting below the cliff.
The Obama administration has been using buffalo jump hunting on the Congress and the American people. It is at the root of Rahm Emmanuel’s now notorious comment that “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” The Cloward-Piven strategy of revolution prescribes a method for fomenting crises that can serve as predicates for buffalo jump hunts that advance the left. The “Stimulus” was one such stampede — Congress didn’t even take the time to read the bill before running [us] over the buffalo jump. Another one was the “Health Care Crisis”.
Everyone run in fear! Obama will show us the “escape route”; in our rush to “safety” we won’t heed the fatal drop in front of us. Next will come the “Carbon Crisis”. And then...well, save something for next time.
If the American people don’t stop stupidly rushing headlong from every phoney buffalo jump crisis their first awareness of impending doom will be on the ride down to disaster.
Taking out the trash is gonna be so awesome.
