warmists are nearly all leftists

Bingo!

See especially the part about ideological bias and peer review. All the best—GGG

I would suggest that we leave the evolution debate out of this.

We should fight this battle on its own merits, and try to win this battle.

Then, after this fraud is exposed, we should compare other scientific frauds to this fraud.

I realize leftists don't grasp the truth, but the swiftboat crews were correct about Kerry...so to me swiftboating means exposing a liar. This more accurate definition of swiftboating would then be appropriate. Again, that's clearly not the intent of these leftists, but it's ironic that they assume a response based upon their own inaccurate definition.

"Swiftboating" is code language for telling the truth about liberals.

The peer review process, when it works, is a fine way of filtering out the meretricious and fraud. But that supposes an honest usage and like so much else it becomes a means of promoting an agenda of one side or the other.
“You pass my paper for review and I'll pass yours” kind of back scratching.

The global warming fraud stands as an important example more for how the matter is being treated by the scientific community than the act its self.

Are the studies and papers on purported human evolution any different?
