Inhofe to call for hearing into CRU, U.N. climate change research (Gaining traction!!)
The Hill ^ | 11/23/2009 | Tony Romm

Posted on 11/23/2009 11:01:42 AM PST by milwguy

The publication of more than 1,000 private e-mails that climate change skeptics say proves the threat is exaggerated has prompted one key Republican senator to call for an investigation into their research.

In an interview with The Washington Times on Monday, Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) announced he would probe whether the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) "cooked the science to make this thing look as if the science was settled, when all the time of course we knew it was not."

However, it is not immediately clear what Inhofe hopes to accomplish with his proposed hearing. U.S. lawmakers and scientists routinely cite IPCC evidence when discussing climate change legislation, but Congress can hardly force the United Nations to halt spending on a program over which it has no jurisdiction.

Rather, Inhofe perhaps hopes to deal a symbolic blow to next month's climate change conference, at which IPCC is likely to play a major role.

Actually we have no jurisdiction over the UN IPCC, BUT WE DO HAVE jurisdiction over NOAA, NASA, and other government funded institutions AND universities which provided ANY data used in putting the IPPC reports together.

Any University Professor in the USA who teaches anywhere besides Hillsdale College (which take NO federal money), has no right to privacy from FOI requests or gvo't hearings. James Hansen, James Hathaway, Michael Mann, call your attorneys, you will soon be needing them.

“U.S. lawmakers and scientists routinely cite IPCC evidence when discussing climate change legislation, but Congress can hardly force the United Nations to halt spending on a program over which it has no jurisdiction”

That line really pisses me off the more I read it. The UN IPCC has taken studies funded by US TAXPAYERS as well as the Brits and others and used them to form the basis for the IPCC reports. As such US scientists do not just CITE IPCC evidene, they are in large part RESPONSIBLE for producing it. The Mann ‘hockey stick’ which was exposed as a fraud was created by a University Professor for the US. He doesn’t cite the IPCC, it is the other way around!!

Before we raise taxes and put these Global Warming guys in charge, shouldn’t we find out who they are and what their “work” entails?

Maybe the Inventor of the Internet (sarcasm intended), Al Gore the Magnificent has some explaining to do. If public money was taken and false statements made to the Government. Can criminal charges be filed? If Data was falsified is that not a crime? When public money is involved?

If they colluded to defraud the Government can they be charged with Conspiracy? Wire and mail fraud? It is time to turn up the heat (pun fully intended) on the Global Warming Con.

The tone is just to make Inhofe look like he’s off the rails.

This is good news and you are right, there is a great deal the US could do-- if the 'rats wouldn't block any rational action.

In any case, as real scientists unpack the "data" and re-do the analyses and correlate it all to arrogant incriminating emails, the story will emerge in all its squalid glory--the greatest scientific fraud in history.

If these people knew they cooked the data and then testified to Congress, could they be charged with perjury?

He's our Okie Senator..., great guy! Go Inhofe!


It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite another to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...

THEREFORE..., it’s also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply one video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the one...


The following is an excellent video documentary on the so-called “Global Warming” I would recommend it to all FReepers. It’s a very well-made documentary.

“The Great Global Warming Swindle”

If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link. Information about BitTorrent protocol and BitTorrent clients and their comparison at these three links (in this sentence). Some additional BitTorrent information here and here.

Download it here...
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3635222/The_Great_Global_Warming_Swindle
[This is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size. This link is the information about it, and you have to click the download link to get it on your BitTorrent client software. You'll also find users' comments here, too.]

It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.

Also, see it online here...
http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/great_global_warming_swindle.php
[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course..., and also, you can download flash video on a website either yourself or some software doing it.]

Buy it on DVD here...
[this would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...] At Amazon, it seems to be high-priced now and have only a few copies right now.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WLUXZE

At WAGtv (a UK shop), but don't know about shipping. The price is reasonable, though.

[And..., some information from WAGtv about this item.]

BRAVO!! Sen Inhofe has been in the forefront in the battle against AGW scams. He now has a quiver full of arrows. Please, Sen Inhofe, subpoena Albert Gore, Jr. That little commie twerp has never taken even one single question about his global warming lunacy. I'd love to see him sweat and squirm.

We have the power of shutting off funding. America funds the largest part of most if not all of these organizations. Especially the U.N.

Money talks. We should throw the U.N. out and refuse to support the crookedness any longer. The scandal of oil for food was gargantuan.

It is impossible to shame the shameless.

In fact, they will most likely spin this as an illegal attack by desparate zealots, which they need more donation to fight...and the morons will mail them the checks.
