'Poor Al Gore. Global warming completely debunked via the very Internet you invented. Oh, oh, the irony!"
This quip by comedian Jon Stewart on "The Daily Show" last week was a welcome break from the steady disclosures of science gone bad. So too was the instantly viral online video called "Hide the Decline," a mocking send-up of the scientists who tried to suppress data showing global cooling. It was viewed hundreds of thousands of times on YouTube.
Climategate began with the disclosure of emails and other documents showing how leading global-warming scientists had evaded peer review and refused to disclose data. Over the past week, there have been resignations and investigations of top scientists in England and the U.S.
The British government is recalculating its historic weather findings in light of the now-suspect data from the Climate Research Unit in East Anglia. Even the United Nations, which had claimed "unequivocal" evidence for man-made global warming, pledges that it will review the evidence.
More details will come out as the leaked documents get fully parsed, but already one certainty is the end of certainty. The one-sidedness of the views of the most influential scientists had led many to believe in the gospel of global warming.
Unlike Watergate, Climategate didn't come to light because investigative journalists ferreted out the truth. Instead, this story so far has played itself out largely on blogs, often run by the same scientists who had a hard time getting printed in the scientific journals. Climategate has provided a voice to the scientists who had been frozen out of the debate.
This may be how information-based scandals play out in the future: A leak from a whistleblower directly onto the Web. Expert bloggers then assess what the disclosures meana Web version of peer review.

My favorite google search is:
climategate al gore must go to jail
He will ignore the truth and continue with the damnable lie, and delivering that lie with his haughty, big eared countenance...head tilted back, looking down his nose on us mere mortals speaking in his halting, staccato voice.
I hope there are a lot of pictures...of the limos, private jets, the caviar dinners and the free hookers.
I hope that normal people everywhere in the world can see the hypocrisy that infests the "church of the man made climate change".....
A regular person would admit to being duped, reverse course and make amends.
A great person would stand against the wind and expose the truth.
A deceitful, deplorable person will go to Copenhagen and act like nothing happened.

This quote from the story is interestin.
Anthony Watts is a meteorologist who was surprised by how local conditions affect the reliability of the 1,200 U.S. weather stations. Along with more than 600 volunteers, he found that almost all the stations violate the government’s standards by being too close to heating vents or surrounded by asphalt.
Bravo to the guys who confronted Gore. Give the left a taste of their own medicine.
Ann Coulter once said that Democrats were like cats, in that each had a limited number of genetically pre-programmed behaviors and were incapable of learning significant new behaviors outside of the constraints of their genetic ones.
One of those genetic Democrat behaviors is: “Never having to say I’m wrong.” And part of never admitting you’ve never been wrong is to act as if you’ve never been wrong, namely continuing to pursue policies and ideas despite massive facts to contrary that such policies and ideas are doomed to failure because they were based on discredited information.
Add that to another genetic Democrat behavior of viewing the world the way they wish it was rather than the way it actually is, and you have a prescription for disastrous behaviors that form the foundation of self-destruction.
The Obamunists will therefore never under any circumstance ever admit to being wrong about anything. Thus, they will continue to pursue to their bitter end the completely discredited fraudulent AGW nonsense perpetuated by a very tiny number of pseudo-scientists.
Trying to assure that the Obamunists always come off as being correct is the main reason that ABCCBSNBC is desperately trying to prevent any objective examination of these phony AGW scientists, which the Climategate leaks essentially demand. Thus ABCCBSNBC is unable to cover Climategate.
We can only hope that the fallout of Climategate continues to grow into a tsunamic force, destroying the credibility of ABCCBSNBC and the Obamunist progressives by exposing their ethical bankruptcy, hollowness of purpose, and collusion in betraying the American people.
So, yes the Obamunists will go to Copenahagen. The Obamunists will continue to pretend that AGW is a fact, rather than a theory. They will continue to completely ignore voices of disagreement regarding AGW, and they will continue to ignore a massive amount of fact and data that totally contradicts the intellectually bankrupt theory that increased atmospheric CO2 is the cause of the current warming trend.
