Climategate II And The Rise Of Climate McCarthyism

Global Warming: A noted researcher who questioned the climate's sensitivity to greenhouse gases says his paper is not being published for ideological reasons and because it might fuel doubt in the climate change story.

First the climate change zealots tried to manipulate the data. Now they are trying to control the debate they claim is over.

It's not over, though, and the science is not settled as true science never is. But those, such as Swedish climate scientist Lennart Bengtsson, who dare to challenge the climate change orthodoxy are being silenced in an organized campaign.

McCarthyism.? The lib/prog/socialist/commies have done a fine job of making "McCarthyism" look like it was a bad thing. Despite the failing in his own life, he was right on the money about the commies in this country. And it's only gotten worse. And getting "worser". Don't agree with their goals and ideals. You will pay the price. I'd be proud to be called a "McCarthy-ite".

This isn’t the time to try to rehabilitate McCarthy’s historical image.

For now it’s a good use of the liberal Icon of Evil to assign it to the witch-hunt against actual scientific investigation of “the settled science”.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

That’s why they are morphing the term Climate Change to Climate Disruption.

Because even the ignoramus graduates of NEA-controlled schools kind of sense the fact that CLIMATE HAS ALWAYS CHANGED.

McCarthy was right. Global warming nuts are not.

What it all boils down to, besides a burned pot, is God is absent, God is powerless, God’s creation is melting right before our eyes, and someone needs to step into the power vacuum. It seems the faithless, have assumed it must be them.

The correct term is Climate CONTROL. Climate is the excuse. CONTROL is the goal.

More like a Climate Change Inquisition is seeking to root out “deniers” (i.e. heretics).

Norway’s wheat production impacted by Climate Change Posted on October 5, 2013 by Guest Blogger

Guest essay by David Archibald

A correspondent in Oslo writes:

“The official view in Norway is in contrast to what the people experience because of cooling weather: Late spring gives flooding and avalanches when late snow-melting in the mountains.

Water pipes freeze because of early and deep frost in the winter. Insect populations down 40% in 5 years because of cool and wet summers. This of cause is bad for pollination of fruit and berries.

The grain harvest in Norway this summer is down 18% from average the last 5 years, despite increase in area and better seeds. But officially it is getting warmer.”

Some of those observations are anecdotal but some facts can be checked – Norwegian wheat production for example. The above figure shows Norwegian wheat production from 1960. Wheat production is off 48% from its peak:
