Climategate: A Defiance of Arrogant Political Power
Pajamas Media ^ | feb. 16 | Ian Plimer

Posted on 02/16/2010 8:21:57 AM PST by AJKauf

The people are speaking. We are seeing a defiance of bureaucrats, officials, government propaganda, and funded climate catastrophe researchers. A scary scientific paradigm of human-induced climate change is collapsing because the cake has been over iced. The average voter has had enough of being talked down to by arrogant scientists with vested interests who present scenarios that defy that rare commodity called common sense.

It was only a short time ago that climate rationalists were told they were factually wrong, that their skepticism was evil, their views were akin to Holocaust denial, and that they should be tried for crimes against humanity. However, Climategate emails show that the coterie of two dozen leading climate comrades shared this skepticism in private — yet denounced skeptics in public. Various cap-and-trade systems have been shown to be an extra tax, which may end up being distributed by the sticky fingers of the UN....

Yeah, now it’s climate change and not global warming.

So, where’s Al Gore? Why isn’t he defending his earlier assertions about this? Because it’s junk science, that’s why.

I swear, to these nut jobs, climate “whatever” is like a religion.

Putzes.

I usually don’t comment on the global warming hype but I am really sick to death of this continuing charade.

I never got over the idea that, with more and increasingly detailed scientific research going on than ever before, with new research demanding greater academic rigor and professional skill, with stupendous funds annually thrown at research, with just about unlimited public access to all and any research data ... that hysteria has been permitted to hijack and gratuitously politicize this issue.

I will tell you what has happened…. the MSM and the NEA have sold themselves to the political enemies of the United States (within and without)!

We won’t even discuss why or for what advantage it was done…. IT WAS DONE and it continues!!!!!! Furthermore, the same conceited and plain disregard for practical reason and widely demonstrable concrete fact is at work in all that the MSM and NEA do.

WHORES!

It IS a religion.
It’s the chosen way to significance for these people.
They’ve rejected true religion in order to “do it my way”,

and if you try to take this away from them, you’re basically ripping their psyche out.

They won’t allow it.

Global Warming a fraud. Climate change is a liberal talking point that means global warming. It is a fraud, too. Climates always change.

That aside, how can any sane person even consider putting money in the hands of the UN? They are corrupt, inept, radical leftist, America haters.
