Massive Grants Causes Global Warming

Cruz is the modern reincarnation of Tailgunner Joe McCarthy, and eventually will suffer the same fate. A really stupid demagogue with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. That is what endears him to our "Conservatives".l

And the idiot speaks again....history, and the release of documents by the failed soviet union have proven beyond any doubt that McCarthy was absolutely correct....and history will eventually prove that the skeptics are right. McCarthy has been vindicated whether you and your socialist cronies ever accept the truth or not....truth...after all...isn't your best thing.

You should check on that a bit....governemnt and activist money outstrips money from energy companies by just about 1000 to 1....and do you think government money is as pure as the wind driven snow?

Here is a graph showing US government expenditures alone on climate science in 2009 approaching 2 billion per year...and the number has climbed since then.

Looks like climate science is getting plenty of money from those evil companies as well....more, in fact, than the skeptics....does this mean that climate science is demonstrably more corrupt than the skeptical side?

There is no AGW....and the point is that warmers are funded to the tune of about `1000 to 1 better than skeptics....and yet, they can't make the argument against AGW go away because the truth simply won't disappear no matter how much money you throw at it.

By the way...look at the post just above this one to see how many of your beloved causes are being funded by evil oil....guess that makes them evil themselves as they are accepting "tainted" money...you can point to a few million dollars being directed towards skeptics while tens and hundreds of billions are lining the pockets of warmist fraudsters....you want to find corruption...simply follow the money and whoever has the most is, without fail, going to be the most corrupt.

Let's recap the story so far.

You made an assertion. I asked for proof. You posted 8 random links from a google search. I took the time to read all of the linked articles. None of the linked articles backed your assertion. Did your read them? Any of them?

Of course you didn't. That would require effort. Why bother with learning or researching anything when you can just be told what to think and what to believe? Just like you were told which avatar to use....... You're a good little lamb!!

Anyway, Why not be a good C-*** and admit you made up the numbers and save us all a lot of time and soap?

It's not hard. You just admit you were wrong and we all move on. OK?

You'd lose quickly on that one. First of all, I've seen funding from the Oil companies for COMPLETELY SANE and reasonable environmental studies for DECADES... In Fact -- I love it when a warmer tosses some GW science at me and it's sponsored by Shell or Exxon. THEY can't tell the difference. So how could you?

Let me remind you.. The PATRONS of science don't want lies. They only want science with blinders on. On BOTH sides. The government doesn't give a shit about mini ocean mollusks. UNLESS -- you can make a case that they ARE or WILL be suffering from man-made Global Warming. Likewise, they don't CARE about the fundamentals of Climate science (learning how the thermo systems of the Earth actually work) -- They only fund studies that will catastrophes that COULD, MIGHT, POSSIBLY be caused by man..

So the Oil Companies fund BOATLOADS of straight up species studies and valuable eco-systems work. But on GW -- they ARE LIKELY to fund the folks that the GOVT is not funding. Those studying NATURAL cycles of climate change, the Sun, Ocean thermal transfers and all the other "uninteresting" basic Climate science.

I've yet to see a funded paper from EITHER patron that are Lies or misrepresentations. (NOTE1) But they do what I used to do -- Make the patron happy with a nod to their cause in my Abstract or Conclusion.... EVEN IF ---- the solid work in my paper doesn't support those observations or conclusions.

Because MOST folks on the Scientific American level -- are not gonna read beyond the Abstract. And Political whackjobs are just gonna consume 4th hand "interpretations" of the work...

Edit -- NOTE1 --- The exceptions being 3 or 4 ACTIVIST GW scientists who HAVE falsely publicized and misrepresented their work. Because the CAUSE is more important.

 

[flacaltenn]

Just because some energy company or the Koch bros fund Cato (for example) doesn't mean that Cato is producing pure science. It's political doctrine and analysis.. And it really doesn't count to determining the scientific truths of the matter.. Doesn't matter anyway. Because organizations don't outright LIE -- they spin.

And since the 90s -- MOST public perception has been "spun" one way or t'other..

Senator Cruz debunked global warming in six words “. . . scientists who are receiving massive grants . . .”.

​

“The problem with that particular statistic, which gets cited a lot,” Cruz said, “is it’s based on one bogus study, and indeed your response…is quite striking. I asked about the science and the evidence, the actual data—we have satellites, they’re measuring temperature, that should be relevant—and your answer was ‘pay no attention to your lying eyes and the numbers that the satellites show; instead listen to the scientists who are receiving massive grants who tell us do not debate the science,” Cruz added.

Ted Cruz Destroys Sierra Club President’s Global Warming Claims in Senate Hearing - Breitbart​

Parasites never debate anything except their self-defined Right to receive tax dollars. The most famous parasite clown of them all, Al Gore, refuses to debate his idiotic claims. I believe Gore is the guy who invented the phrase “settled science.” I have it on good authority that while Gore was standing in front of Front Knox he got the idea from Ali Baba’s password: Open Sesame:

https://cdn.andertoons.com/img/toons/cartoon4527.png

Instead of wasting time debating every freeloader who testifies before Congress on their terms, the parasites should have to prove their constitutional Right to tax dollars. In the case of environmental leeches, witnesses would also have to prove why the scientists they represent should be “granted” permission to feed at the public trough. (Have you noticed that designer-scientists never testify?)

And can you imagine every parasite group trying to justify their tax dollar incomes based on the First Amendment. Since the frauds are saving the planet based on their personal moral code they should at least explain why these sixteen words excludes them:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; . . .​

Just to be clear, environmental freakazoids are certainly free to practice their religion —— but not with tax dollars.

He's a dumbass. He should have said that they were receiving money over and over and over again. An extended extortion scam. They have been perpetrating this crime for many years.

To deny that is total ignorance.
