Yes, I think you “scientists” need to continue to lobby for “hugh” grants while the country is going down the drain. Good luck with that.

The trouble with this is, they’ll be using American taxpayer dollars to “speak out” against Americans. We need some congressional hearings on this and maybe a few @$$es thrown in jail.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scientists_opposing_the_mainstream_scientific_assessment_of_global_warming

We have a list too;)

Love this guy!

Tad Murty, oceanographer; adjunct professor, Departments of Civil Engineering and Earth Sciences, University of Ottawa: global warming “is the biggest scientific hoax being perpetrated on humanity. There is no global warming due to human anthropogenic activities. The atmosphere hasn’t changed much in 280 million years, and there have always been cycles of warming and cooling. The Cretaceous period was the warmest on earth. You could have grown tomatoes at the North Pole”[29]

Hand me those Fed grants and I’ll “argue” that a dragon roams outer space, the moon is actually the sun and Santa Claus is real.

May we have another ass-biting winter with ice 6 inches thick all over DC and New York. And let it last a month...or more.

Wow - a professor from Suffolk County Community College in New York, taking a break from teaching remedial High School courses to target me and set me straight - I have to say I’m impressed !!

“This group feels strongly that science and politics can’t be divorced...”

Is there any need, at all, to read beyond that point?

Dean Yeager: “Doctor... Venkman. The purpose of science is to serve mankind. You seem to regard science as some kind of dodge... or hustle. Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist, Dr. Venkman!”

The spokesperson of world consensus scientific opinion is a community college professor?

"This group feels strongly that science and politics can't be divorced and that we need to take bold measures to not only communicate science but also to aggressively engage the denialists and politicians who attack climate science and its scientists,"

If science and politics can't be divorced, then it really isn't about the science, it's really about what you can force other people to do at government gunpoint.

C'mon, we're talking "sceintists" here. Egg-heads. Ivory-tower dwelling, video-game-playing, milque-toasts.

'Krystallnacht' to them might as well be a brand of bottled water.

Here’s the link to his homepage: you’ll get a flavor for what he teaches and who his heroes are (hint: Realclimate.org, Michael Mann et al)
