Ooooo, the liberal global warming Ox is getting, ahem . . . Gored!
If this keeps up, no one's going to trust any scientists.
The global-warming establishment took a body blow this week, as the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change received a stunning rebuke from a top-notch independent investigation.
But the prestigious InterAcademy Council, an independent association of "the best scientists and engineers worldwide" (as the group's own Web site puts it) formed in 2000 to give "high-quality advice to international bodies," has finished a thorough review of IPCC practices -- and found them badly wanting.
For example, the IPCC's much-vaunted Fourth Assessment Report claimed in 2007 that Himalayan glaciers were rapidly melting, and would possibly be gone by the year 2035. The claim was actually false -- yet the IPCC cited it as proof of man-made global warming.
Some IPCC practices can only be called shoddy. As The Wall Street Journal reported, "Some scientists invited by the IPCC to review the 2007 report before it was published questioned the Himalayan claim. But those challenges 'were not adequately considered,' the InterAcademy Council's investigation said, and the projection was included in the final report."
Yet the Himalayan claim wasn't based on peer-reviewed scientific data, or on any data -- but on spec ulation in a phone interview by a single scientist.
Now this is NO SURPRISE to conservatives. We have been waying for two decades that global warming was a hoax and based on shoddy science.
YET, liberals have insisted on "consensus" science as their "moral authority" for global warming.
But, since the emails were released showing the shoddy and somtimes FRADULENT efforts made to "prove" global warming, that "consensus" is falling apart.
Scientists are no longer afraid to be called a "global warming denier" (like some holocaust denier, so ridiculous) and are finding the voice to speak up.
Global warming is not about "saving the planet," but about far left radicals who want to take CONTROL of the planet and force their radical ideas on YOU and I.
Like Al Gore, they want us to practically live in grass huts to "reduce our carbon footprint" while THEY live the lives of jet setters.
Watching this lie, finally fall apart is wonderful to see.
Remember this when you vote in November. The Democrats are all for this and wanted to force CAP AND TRADE on you, BASED ON A COMPLETE LIE.
