Isn’t there one sane government in the world to prosecute these global warming hucksters that took grants based on false data?
I like elitist’s theories because it gives Glenn Beck a reason to mock Joe Klein with a smoking jacket and pipe. Priceless.
It’s gorebull warming I tell you!
Don’t trust the evidence of your puny senses!
Listen to me! Meee! MEEEEE!
The grants are pennies compared to what the carbon traders stand to make off data they wanted the scientists to produce.

True that. I’m not sure false information intended to move markets would be as easy to prosecute as a grant though. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it prosecuted . . . and it’s done in financial markets often. Hard to prove. In the USA the prosecutors want a stock market case handed to them on a golden platter before they step into the chaos of that arena . . . otherwise they leave it up to the civil regulators who only really have power over people whose licenses to do business are in jeopardy.
The only people we have to blame is ourselves. We the people elected these evil scoundrels now the nation is paying the price. Sometimes the electorate is lazy and does stupid things. It will be alright if we recognize the folly of our way and change course accordingly.
I think I would be looking at grant money paid by corporations like GE who stands to make enormous sums of money off of climate change.
I do agree that squeezing the scientists is where we need to start.
Excellent piece, as usual.

“There is an unfocused but growing anger in the country — and it should come as no surprise. Nobody likes to be lectured by those claiming superior wisdom but often lacking common sense about everything from out-of-control spending and predicting the weather to dealing with enemies who are trying to kill us all.”
Bingo.
bump & a VDH ping
VDH once again succinctly skewers 0bama, Gore and all the elitist Libs.
And he has a great butt!
I’ll trust you on that aspect of his ahem, talents.
