Global Warming Scientist Backpeddles
Feb 15, 2010 Political
Professor Phil Jones is at the center of the climategate scandal in which private emails were released casting doubt on the whole global warming debate. Al Gore refuses to honestly debate the issue and tells us that the science is settled. It would appear, once again, that it is not so settled after all:
Professor Jones told the BBC yesterday there was truth in the observations of colleagues that he lacked organisational skills, that his office was swamped with piles of paper and that his record keeping is ‘not as good as it should be’.
The data is crucial to the famous ‘hockey stick graph’ used by climate change advocates to support the theory.
Professor Jones also conceded the possibility that the world was warmer in medieval times than now – suggesting global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon.
And he said that for the past 15 years there has been no ‘statistically significant’ warming. [emphasis mine] Daily Mail
Well, that unsettles it. Jones admits that it might have been warmer in medieval times and that there has been no statistically significant warming in the last 15 years.
This slap has to hurt the global warming crowd and its blind adherence to a cult that is now more unsettled than ever.
Remember, this guy is one of the big boys in the movement. After he was caught with his pants down (not in a Bill Clinton way) he fessed up to the fact that the science is not so settled after all.
This entire hoax continues to unravel.
And if the governments of the world ever start paying scientists to prove there is NO global warming, that will be the new pursuit, and they will tell us it is settled.
Maybe Al Gore should give that Nobel Peace Prize back…

Global Warming Continues To Unravel
Feb 13, 2010 Political
Another admission that data used by the IPCC is flawed. As with most of the erroneous data discovered, the claim is made that the information is background and does not change the conclusions. They relied on all the data to arrive at the conclusion but the data is not important for that conclusion…
A background note by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said a 2007 report wrongly stated that 55 percent of the country was below sea level since the figure included areas above sea level, prone to flooding along rivers.
~snip
Skeptics say errors have exposed sloppiness and over-reliance on “grey literature” outside leading scientific journals. The panel’s reports are a main guide for governments seeking to work out costly policies to combat global warming. al-Reuters
How much more will be discovered as people dig deeper and deeper into this scandal?
Where has Al “the science is settled” Gore been lately?
Perhaps he is snowed in somewhere…
UPDATE: Ron Smith of WBAL wrote this:
Check these out this weekend whenever you get a break from digging out from under our record snowfall; speaking of which, aren’t we amused by the resolute attempts of the climate doomsayers to link these huge recent winter weather events to global warming? Just recently, the annoying Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was pointing to mild winters in Washington, D.C. as evidence of potentially calamitous warming due to man-made greenhouse gas emissions. In 2002, the venerable Senator Robert Byrd of West Virginia haltingly informed his fellow lawmakers that a winter with a mere three inches of snowfall was indeed a harbinger of AGW. How’s it looking now, fellas? Oh, that’s right. I forgot. To the climate change crowd, this harsh winter is simply more proof that global warming is taking place – even though it’s not – because this is their story and they’re sticking to it. Time Magazine believes it. The New York Times, though not as definitively, does report there is a scientific consensus that the warming could well be the reason for the record storms because the warmth causes more moisture to be collected into the atmosphere and eventually dumped on our heads. Check out Marc Morano’s invaluable climatedepot.com for a compendium of news stories and opinion pieces slanted toward refutation of climate change doom saying.
Very well stated Mr. Smith…

Global Warming Hoax Is Dying A Slow Death
Feb 8, 2010 Political
The lies, the misrepresentations, the Nobel Peace Prizes, and the billions of dollars spent will soon be reminders of a hoax perpetrated on the world by a bunch of snake oil salesmen who only wanted to make a buck.
Al Gore and his followers beat the drum for man-made global warming and often claimed that the science was settled but it is more unsettled than ever now that the movement has been exposed. It is a hoax. It is a lie. It is not true.
“The global warming movement as we have known it is dead,” the brilliant analyst Walter Russell Mead says in his blog on The American Interest. It was done in by a combination of bad science and bad politics.
~snip~
Meantime, the IPCC – the body widely regarded, until now, as the ultimate authority on climate science – is looking worse and worse. After it was forced to retract its claim about melting glaciers, Mr. Pachauri dismissed the error as a one-off. But other IPCC claims have turned out to be just as groundless. The Globe and Mail
The fabric had a loose thread and someone pulled at it. Suddenly the entire thing started coming apart.
Some day future generations will look at all of this and wonder why we never tarred and feathered these people…

Hockey Stick Graph Liar Gets Stimulus Money
Jan 15, 2010 Political
Penn State Professor Michael Mann, the guy who hid and manipulated data to get a hockey stick graph showing an abrupt increase in global temperature has received $541,184 from the stimulus funds for global warming work. This alarmist is one of the key players in the global warming fraud that was exposed when emails and other files were hacked into and released to the public.
This is on top of the $1.9 million of stimulus money that Penn State received to investigate the impact of global warming.
Money is what the global warming issue is all about. All people need to do is follow the money and it is easy to see that these folks are motivated by the dollar, not science.
If the government gives out billions of dollars to discover if unicorns existed then a lot of scientists will start finding evidence that they could have and would keep milking the system for more money. If they said that unicorns did not exist they would have to look for a new cash cow.
The entire global warming alarmist movement is based on manipulated data as clearly shown in the email exchanges and a review of the files. Scientists excluded data, manipulated data and manipulated methodology in order to get a result that they wanted. They had a result in mind and manipulated data to fit it.
Now we are sending them stimulus money.
Even if the global warming alarmists were correct this is not where stimulus money should be spent.
This is what happens when government doles out our money. It is used to pay for favors or to pay off supporters.
A 10% unemployment rate is a problem and it is not getting better. Obama has changed the way he lies about job creation so that he can claim things that are not true but that fit his new definition.
He did this after being caught lying about job numbers a few times. He just changed how they count so the lie will be obtained using his approved methods. He made formal how they have been lying all along.
Change you can deceive in.

From Global Warming To Ice Age
Jan 11, 2010 Political
Scientists are now predicting that we might suffer a mini ice age of 20 to 30 years. This prediction changes the assertions that we have to act now to keep the seas from rising and the Earth from melting or any of the other apocalyptic stuff spewed by the global warming drones.
According to scientists who believe in global warming and who are on board with all the Al Gore hokey stuff, we might be in for an ice age before we get back to serious global warming.
The bitter winter afflicting much of the Northern Hemisphere is only the start of a global trend towards cooler weather that is likely to last for 20 or 30 years, say some of the world’s most eminent climate scientists.
Their predictions – based on an analysis of natural cycles in water temperatures in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans – challenge some of the global warming orthodoxy’s most deeply cherished beliefs, such as the claim that the North Pole will be free of ice in
summer by 2013.According to the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre in Colorado, Arctic summer sea ice has increased by 409,000 square miles, or 26 per cent, since 2007 – and even the most committed global warming activists do not dispute this.
The scientists’ predictions also undermine the standard climate computer models, which assert that the warming of the Earth since 1900 has been driven solely by man-made greenhouse gas emissions and will continue as long as carbon dioxide levels rise.
This challenge to the widespread view that the planet is on the brink of an irreversible catastrophe is all the greater because the scientists could never be described as global warming ‘deniers’ or sceptics. Daily Mail UK
I guess if you can no longer hide the decline you need to embrace it. The world is very cold this month and was very cold last month. The last decade is reported to be the warmest on record (our records do not go back very far) but this new decade is starting off as a very cold one and if we get into an ice age of 20 or 30 years then we will have a climate and not just weather. We will have cold and not global warming.
Then the true deniers, those who deny the Earth warms and cools in cycles and that the warmer periods are generally the most productive in history, will be screeching about global cooling and the new ice age heading our way.
Al Gore will open a chain of SUV dealerships so we can all increase our carbon footprints and stop the world from freezing.
But wait. According to Al and his drones we have increased our carbon footprint. We have allegedly put more carbon in the atmosphere than there has been at any other time (not true) and the scientists could not hide the decline and are now predicting a mini ice age.
So does carbon cause warming or cooling? It is hard to keep track of because Al said we would get warmer because of it and these other fellows are saying that we will have an ice age despite it.
It is all so confusing and unpredictable.
Perhaps that is why we call it nature.
Either way humans will be here in the next decade and the decades after that and we will not be dying of the heat. No matter what happens it is not worth the money that it will cost to do cap and trade or to impose other rules regarding this issue.
In other words, let nature take its course.
I know liberals think they elected a messiah but how arrogant must they be to believe we have the ability to change the climate in any meaningful way?
Hmmm, Mars got warmer when the Earth did. That would tend to take away the man made aspect to all this. But what do the Earth and Mars have in common?
