No one here, or anywhere else, has ever put forward the idea that the high consensus regarding anthropogenic global warming (hereafter AGW) among climate scientists PROVES the theory is correct.
The consensus here - and every other consensus among scientists concerning the various theories and hypotheses about which their professional lives revolve - determines the LIKELIHOOD that a theory is correct. A theory with which 97% of the experts agree is far, far more LIKELY to be correct than is one with which only 1% (eg, that GW is not anthropogenic) agree.
Got it?
What a steaming pile of Bull Shit.. Consensus is a political term not a scientific one..
Yes.
No.
And, again, it is only deniers that bring up Al Gore. None of my arguments rely on anything he has said or done. They rely instead on the work of thousands of degreed climate scientists publishing in peer reviewed journals.

Just saying it doesn't mean squat. I don't believe I have used one single political argument in these consensus discussions. I'd say you were full of shit. But, perhaps you could give a more thorough explanation of what you mean. Or perhaps not.
