Browner says hacked e-mails don't change anything

Stephen Dinan

Obama administration climate czar Carol Browner on Wednesday rejected claims that e-mails stolen from a British university show climate scientists trumped up global warming numbers, saying she considers the science settled.

"I'm sticking with the 2,500 scientists. These people have been studying this issue for a very long time and agree this problem is real," said Ms. Browner, who President Obama has tapped as his chief of policy on global warming.

The e-mails were hacked from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia and have come to light over the last week. They appear to show scientists saying they've smoothed over data that doesn't back up their claims of warming, and pondering how to freeze out scientists who disagree with them.

Release of the e-mails has fueled skeptics ahead of next month's major global warming meeting in Copenhagen, which is supposed to set the framework for a new global treaty to restrict greenhouse gas emissions.

The White House said Wednesday that Mr. Obama will personally travel to Copenhagen to commit the U.S. to greenhouse gas reductions.

I am one of the 30,000+ and we are right.

In other words, from her role in govt she helps formulate environmental policies and regulations, and then “assists” (milks) companies to comply with or work around those policies.

If we don’t put them their...our kids and grandkids will be shedding blood to rid themselves of this nonsense....

She is a climate hoax denier!

Carol, guess where the 2500 got some of their info from? Hint: they’ve been in the news lately.

And the 32,000 are ALL verified expert scientists and engineers, the majority having advanced degrees in science and engineering, including many atmospheric scientists.

Love to see all Gore in front of a Republican run investigation committee. He could be brought up on racketeering charges.

Like all leftists, Browner doesn’t want the issue of global cooling, er warming, er temperature change to become muddled by the presentation of facts.

"Comparing everything for the last 11 years to one abnormal peak in 1998 is not very good data-analysis technique. If you pick either the preceding or following year, you don’t see a cooling trend."

A linear fit of all 11 years shows a cooling trend.

There is a quote by Upton Sinclair in the book that, to me, was the money quote: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it."

Brilliant, I am saving it to my Quotes file -- thank you for posting it.

So the verdict is in. Zero will obey his masters and sell out the USA big time in Europe by the looks of this article.

BUMP

The largest mass protest in the history of the US on 9/12 earned us nothing more than sneers from these fascists.

Keep planning that big 2010 election victory folks. It is as likely to occur as my wife letting me have a hot 30 year old move in with us.

The key thing here is that they are no longer even attempting to pretend that the will of the people is part of the equation. They are that confident that they are here to stay. Because they know they are NOT leaving via the ballot box. And they expect us to continue to peacefully and respectfully protest. IOW keep taking the shaft.

[Marine_Uncle]

I should have added to my comment, that if I am correct, the US Senate must ratify any such treaty that may be put on the table. If so, it could be at this point shot down.

[Tzimisce]

...so we have a “Climate Czar” that doesn’t care about information concerning the planet?

How much money is this person being paid?

Those who hide data are not scientists - they’re cheerleaders.

Nailed it. They're going all out now because they know they'll be too busy manning the barricades in 2010, and declaring Obama president for life by 2012. Global warming has been exposed as the fraud we always knew it to be. It's for all the marbles now, and they're not going to play by any rules. Is it any wonder Americans have been buying arms and ammunition like never before in our nation's history? Coup d'etat. You are living through one.
