We're supposed to take these guys seriously, right????

Politicians? You may need to get your head examined Colpy...

Though I'm amused by your red herring post in a thread titled "Climate debate should stick to facts"

Kudos! :lol:

Indeed, quite so. What the two things have to do with each other, I don't know, but if it works for you, keep on with it.

I'm sorry, I'm too often guilty of assuming the reading public shares the same drug induced visions that afflict me. The snow shovel has clarified the thinking of the confused before. I used to be a strong supporter of global warming, I even did things to add to the carbon load and I did it fully expecting to reap the benefits of the promised heat wave. I can't forgive them.

So to review, more emails taken out of context with selective quote mining. All investigations have cleared the scientists of fraud and scientific misconduct. Much more ado about nothing.

+1 for denier propaganda, -10 for reason.
It is a case of what I said in the WWII thread - people cannot accept any info that does not fit in with their preconceived ideas of reality. "I'm right, you are wrong." A sure sign that the ego is in control.

Well they don't have many tricks left. Bad surface temperature stations have been ruled out. Urban heat island ruled out. A skeptic analyzes surface temperature data and confirms it is correct. They start cherry picking trend start dates to say no warming has occurred. It's fallacious stats.

Their arguments against observations are repeatedly shot down, which perversely enforces more faulty beliefs like Colpy's.
