Are you thinking what I’m thinking?

This is way they handled the ACORN scandal - a new video every few weeks to keep the affair in play. I wonder if BG is the real author of CLIMATEGATE?

We do know those people are patriots and very unconventional warriors.

Interesting parallels here with the ACORN scandal, heh?

We’ll see in the coming months who the real author(s) of CLIMATEGATE are, but I agree with you this was only the first volley.

[sodpoodle]

There will be more “suspected break-ins & thefts of sensitive data” from the offices of these scam artists posing as scientists.

The gig is up and they are in CYA mode.

We can only hope a few lower echelon insiders with integrity and conscience are girding their loins to come clean and save their reputations and our sanity.

People don’t like it, so they try to discredit it, and the way they try to discredit it is by attacking the individual responsible for it,” Mr. Weaver said.

Mr. Weaver has unknowingly just confirmed that Jones, Mann, et al. were doing the same thing in the emails they sent but it’s OK for them to do it since they are so much better and smarter than the rest of us. So the question must be asked, “Is this man smart enough to be a scientist or is it just that he is well indoctrinated?” Just another in a string of what I call educated, intellectual morons.

If the hacker/leaker/s knew what he/she/they were doing, more than the CRU would've been hacked.

And the hacker/s won't have released everything that was obtained...

Another awesome linkapalooza, backhoe! You da heavy equipment guy! :)

[School of Rational Thought]

Why not comply with the freedom of information requests in the first place? What are these so-called scientists hiding?

Science must be replicated to be valid. That does not seem to be the case.

Sell green companies short.

[gibtx2]

the green party is seeing itself implode

[CRBDeuce]

They dont need any help in that Department, their problem now is in making themselves credible again.

with all due apologies to Catholics everywhere, the 'destruction of traditions' couldn't be any better correographed if Alinsky had done so himself. /extremely nuanced reference to a few Catholic priests who shall remain nameless giving similar results to the nameless 'scientists' like Algore.

I believe there is one last push needed to trash the Ecology protocols, it is to protest in mass in front of the climate summit which Obama may attend too. If it is in large mass, it would be a good kick for a promo that even the dirty liberal media cannot ignore. We need protests at the climate summit.

One of our techs has pretty good success with just sticking the hard drive in a freezer for half an hour or so. Then it runs long enough to get the data off of it.

[SteamShovel]

it’s an exposure of deceit. Or maybe that doesn’t compute

It computes, they just have an agenda.

They would rather live in a world where the socialist-ends justify the
criminal-means.....

.....than live in a world where exposing inconvenient fraud and the
concepts of freedom and right over wrong prevail.

[Let's Roll]

“Alleged” shifting the focus, going for sympathy etc.

Pathetic.

Can you imagine building your entire professional career on a lie? What a waste of a life.

[DoctorBulldog]

TWAP = The Worst American President!!!!!!!

These lamers in the media don’t know that? What a bunch of idiots!

Cheers

"sticking the hard drive in a freezer for half an hour or so"

Depends. I tried that as part of rescuing a friend's HD. I my successful case, swapping the electronic board on the bottom with a similar model made the unit work long enough to suck the data off it.

[gargoyle]

...Good point, but, The sh!t is out. Even Gore has gone into hiding in Denmark. Obama has reeled on his heels. The silent, peaceful revolution is advancing, and the federal gov’t is scared...

...Feeling optomistic, for now...

[Enchante]

Typical propaganda from these fraud artists ---- now they are spinning, spinning, and deceiving....

Trying to pretend that the fuss is only about a few personal remarks in private emails "taken out of context" what B.S!!!!

First, the emails are clearly written in professional contexts, supposedly dealing scientific and public policy matters, yet there are so many comments which reveal those clowns to be petty, vindictive, and DISHONEST. While that does not settle any scientific issues, it certainly gives more reason to investigate what these guys have been doing (often with large sums of public tax money) when they keep saying "trust us, trust us".....

2nd, it is an obvious and outrageous point of disinformation for the clowns and media to focus solely upon the "release" of the material and a claim that email phrases were taknen "out of context" ---- it's rather hard to imagine what "context" is supposed to make some of those exchanges look benign.....
3rd, it is REALLY hard to imagine the "context" in which a lot of the programmer comments in READ_ME_HARRY will look benign...... the media and the CRU apologists ignore all the other materials entirely b/c they can't possibly explain away all the programmer comments which describe a horrendous mess of bad and inconsistent databases, horrible unscientific practices of no documentation and/or bad documentation, a grotesque travesty full of bad practices.

The main question with regard to the CRU data and programming would seem to be where does incompetence become dishonesty, fraud, and cover-up???

There seem to be ample cartloads of all of the above, from incompetence to fraud to cover-up........

[Enchante]

"Can you imagine building your entire professional career on a lie? What a waste of a life."

Can you imagine being a liberal hack in the MalStreamMedia?

Can you imagine being a DemocRAT politician?"

Can you imagine being Albore or Obama or Pelosi or Boxer....???

What wasted lives!

excuse me, I keep repeating myself!

Hey genius, make all the data public and this wouldn’t be happening. The hackers aren’t attempting to “discredit” your climate work, they are trying to expose the truth which is supposed to be what science is all about. But instead you guys want to apply your secret sauce to the data and them claim the result is proof that we all need to change our standard of living for the worse.

So in short, open up or shut up.
