The drive against dissenters from global warming extends much further. Patrick Michaels, a leading critic, reports that an editor told him skeptical papers must face much stricter scrutiny to win acceptance. The "newly elected Democratic Governor of Virginia, Tim Kaine, … soon after taking office ratcheted up the effort to get Michaels removed" from his post of state climatologist (p. 113). In one case, when a skeptical paper evaded the landmines and secured publication, the global-warming enthusiasts demanded that an immediate rebuttal appear.

The tip-off that "global warming" was a hoax was the quick appearance of totalitarians "lookin' for a horse to ride".

Well today, I did not need it. But, I must admit, the Cardinals are an X factor and The Eagles better not go in over confident . See the Cowboys!

I ran across this Colorado skeptic website, which incidentally is run by a Ph.D. in meteorology and a friend.

Thanks. Craig James, longtime meteorologist on local stations here, retired. His ‘blog on the station website was ripped down as soon as — taking his critiques of the global warming scam down with it.

Also, same as knowing Creationism is today. This has been going on for a very long time. That is why evolution to many appears as an almost undisputed fact. Many do not realize that they are victims of systematic promotion of false beliefs by an active and pervasive process that is carried on in universities, public schools and the media world wide. That is why one cannot trust what they are being sold by academia. Just because they claim their “facts” are undisputed certainly doesn't make it so. Buyer beware!

Professor Dennis Bray and Hans von Storch polled climate scientists to rate the statement, "To what extent do you agree or disagree that climate change is mostly the result of anthropogenic causes?" … They received responses from 530 climate scientists in 27 countries, of whom 44 percent were either neutral or disagreed with the statement… Science magazine helpfully refused to publish the findings.

As with most global warming stories, one hardly knows whether to laugh or cry.
