another scientist weighs in.....whoa!
Who pays the "scientists" who say what you want to hear?
The PEA brain climate change deniers mantra...
THIS is WHO funds the experts we should trust ...
And...THESE are the experts we should listen to ...
Argumentum ad hominem (argument directed at the person). This is the error of attacking the character or motives of a person who has stated an idea, rather than the idea itself. The most obvious example of this fallacy is when one debater maligns the character of another debater (e.g, "The members of the opposition are a couple of fascists!"), but this is actually not that common. A more typical manifestation of argumentum ad hominem is attacking a source of information -- for example, responding to a quotation from Richard Nixon on the subject of free trade with China by saying, "We all know Nixon was a liar and a cheat, so why should we believe anything he says?" Argumentum ad hominem also occurs when someone's arguments are discounted merely because they stand to benefit from the policy they advocate -- such as Bill Gates arguing against antitrust, rich people arguing for lower taxes, white people arguing against affirmative action, minorities arguing for affirmative action, etc. In all of these cases, the relevant question is not who makes the argument, but whether the argument is valid.another scientist weighs in.....whoa!

You didn't answer my question. If you want to base credibility on who pays them ... who pays the scientists you agree with?
Right....Call him "meteorologist" and he can't tell me what the weather is going to be next week, but call him "atmospheric scientist" and he can tell me what the weather is going to be like 50 years from now.Atmospheric Scientists
Employment
Atmospheric scientists held about 8,800 jobs in 2006. Although several hundred people teach atmospheric science and related courses in college and university departments of meteorology or atmospheric science, physics, earth science, or geophysics, these individuals are classified as college or university faculty, rather than atmospheric scientists. (See the statement on postsecondary teachers elsewhere in the Handbook.)
The Federal Government was the largest single employer of civilian meteorologists, accounting for about 37 percent. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) employed most Federal meteorologists in National Weather Service stations throughout the Nation; the remainder of NOAAs meteorologists worked mainly in research and development or management. The U.S. Department of Defense employed several hundred civilian meteorologists. In addition to civilian meteorologists, hundreds of Armed Forces members are involved in forecasting and other meteorological work. (See the statement on job opportunities in the Armed Forces elsewhere in the Handbook.) Others worked for professional, scientific, and technical services firms, including private weather consulting services; radio and television broadcasting; air carriers; and State government.

Stagnating Temperatures: Climatologists Baffled by Global Warming Time-Out - SPIEGEL ONLINE - News - InternationalClimatologists Baffled by Global Warming Time-Out
At least the weather in Copenhagen is likely to be cooperating. The Danish Meteorological Institute predicts that temperatures in December, when the city will host the United Nations Climate Change Conference, will be one degree above the long-term average.
Otherwise, however, not much is happening with global warming at the moment. The Earth's average temperatures have stopped climbing since the beginning of the millennium, and it even looks as though global warming could come to a standstill this year.
Ironically, climate change appears to have stalled in the run-up to the upcoming world summit in the Danish capital, where thousands of politicians, bureaucrats, scientists, business leaders and environmental activists plan to negotiate a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Billions of euros are at stake in the negotiations.
Reached a Plateau
The planet's temperature curve rose sharply for almost 30 years, as global temperatures increased by an average of 0.7 degrees Celsius (1.25 degrees Fahrenheit) from the 1970s to the late 1990s. "At present, however, the warming is taking a break," confirms meteorologist Mojib Latif of the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in the northern German city of Kiel. Latif, one of Germany's best-known climatologists, says that the temperature curve has reached a plateau. "There can be no argument about that," he says. "We have to face that fact."
Yeah, they're "baffled" alright....Probably because they haven't been able to dazzle anyone but the most gullible.
Obviously YOU didn't even read your own link!!!Didn't read the linked piece in the OP that covered the research of a scientist, did you?
Didn't think so.
Call them what you want, Jethro....They're all using the WAG method to come to their conclusions, and only a neutron-brained hack with a political agenda, like you, can't see that.Climatology is the study of climate, scientifically defined as weather conditions averaged over a period of time, and is a branch of the atmospheric sciences.
Meteorology is the interdisciplinary scientific study of the atmosphere that focuses on weather processes and forecasting.
And then there's Denialology...pea brain faux scientists with no schooling who argue climate based on what they read on the right wing denialosphere
It's common knowledge that is a lie, it isn't really even a debatable point.It's common knowledge that the world has gotten cooler since 1998, it isn't really even a debatable point.
I read the link, asshelmet.Obviously YOU didn't even read your own link!!!
First your link makes this claim: "Global warming appears to have stalled. Climatologists are puzzled as to why average global temperatures have stopped rising over the last 10 years."
Later your link reports this: "According to the Hadley figures, the world grew warmer by 0.07 degrees Celsius from 1999 to 2008"
BAFFLEING!!!(sic)
To recap, global temperatures that STOPPED RISING the last ten years, ROSE .07 degrees Celsius the last ten years.
The people who brainwash you litterally MOCK you with obvious contradictions like that, knowing you are so mindless you will NEVER catch them.
Well Dupe, why don't you explain how the world grew warmer the last 10 years if global temperature stopped rising the last 10 years?????I read the link, asshelmet.Obviously YOU didn't even read your own link!!!

If the information contained therein proves anything, it's that even the so-called "experts" can't come to this vaunted "consensus" all of you envirowackaloons have such a woody over.
Therefore, all you have is your do-gooder authoritarian political agenda to fall back upon, which isn't at all cynical.
PS.....I'll lobby Gunny to change your handle to "edthelemming", if you think that'll help out.

hey my son did a report on Einstein the other day but unfortunately Einstein didn't write the report so everthing in the report is wrong including Einsteins own work.
( the above is an example of sarcasm)
