It’s too bad all the solstice celebrations here in the DFW area are all for pagans. Granted, those can be fun too… but the naked dancing is reserved for the summer solstice. I may hold out for that one instead.
So Dave, how long are you gonna continue to ignore the biggest scandal in the history of “science?”
jcc
Maybe Dave is aware of these:
http://climateprogress.org/2009/11/28/climategate-michael-mann-hockey-stick-copenhagen-diagnosis/
http://climateprogress.org/2009/11/12/hacked-emails-ncar-kevin-trenberth/
and other articles detailing how the out of context quote-mining was cherry-picked (Who’d'a thunk?) to skew the real meaning behind the hacked emails.
Oops. Did something wrong with my second link.
Try this:

Wait, all you could come up with was one tree-ring hugging, politically motivated, pseudo-scientist, desperately paddling to CYA in an ocean of damning evidence?…
MaybeClearly you (and Dave) are unaware of these:Penn State Will Investigate Climategate
UK University to Probe Integrity of Climate Data
NASA Hiding Climate Data
Climate Change Fraud
Climate scientist at center of e-mail controversy to step down
This is not a smoking gun, it’s a mushroom cloud
Climategate: It’s all unraveling now
not to mention:
U.N. Deletes Documents, Won’t Come Clean on Costs of Greening World Offices
Sorry karen. The damage has been done; the genie out of the bottle; the jig is up; the veil rended. No matter how hard you anti-capitalist ideologues who masquerade as pseudo-scientists try, you’ll never get the climate-change-sham toothpaste back in the tube.
My favorite nail-in-the-coffin email concerning your boy Mann:
…and this just in… I love it! First demonstrate to the world just how meaningless and idiotic the “Oscars” are and next, how liberal and moronic the whole Nobel “Peace” Prize operation is.
Oh, and karen, here’s how well young skulls full of mush who’ve been indoctrinated by the elite, liberal “intelligentsia” act when asked questions a fifth grader should be able to answer…

“Wait, all you could come up with was one tree-ring hugging, politically motivated, pseudo-scientist, desperately paddling to CYA in an ocean of damning evidence?… Maybe Clearly you (and Dave) are unaware of these:”
I provided 2 (T-W-O) links which I found on my first and only search. Those links lead to many more, and yes, I read some of the links you provided. I was not interested in trying to prove, disprove, endorse or condemn anyone in this matter when I posted before. I read the link in your first response and decided to see what was going on, as I hadn’t heard about this yet. What I found was, as usual, there is more than one side to a story. Why don’t we wait till the investigation is over and see what chips fall to the floor, and where?
My favorite nail-in-the-coffin email concerning your boy Mann:”
First, that was a remark from Phil Jones to Mann (who is not my boy). Are you responsible for what others say to you?
Second, in the link I provided about Mann, in which he explains the context of some of the mined quotes, you can find his (to me, reasonable) views on skeptical publications and the somewhat notorious incident involving a questionable publication in a peer-reviewed mag. He doesn’t address the specific quote by Jones in that link, but again, that is for Jones to explain, not Mann.
“and this just in…”
More breaking news…2+2=4.
“here’s how well young skulls full of mush blah, blah, blah…”
Wow. Conservative “comedy” is so lame. I doubt anyone disagrees that Americans are stupid, and growing more so. But one could easily go to a conservative campus and pull off a similar routine with similar results. Nice to see that your Christian Love is still shining through. Was this last bit of snark one of those acts you commit “in the Lord”?
Karen, you know little mouse is chock full of conspiracy theories. He’s been dying to engage someone on this 1.
So…
Liberals are engaged in a climate conspiracy…
Liberals are engaged in a conspiracy to kill babies…
Liberals are engaged in a conspiracy to strip xtianity from the culture…
Liberals are engaged in a conspiracy to…
Oh hell, anything liberals say is a conspiracy. No wonder he needs his religion. It balances out his paranoia.
KA
Has he brought the hijacked emails up before? I haven’t been reading here much lately-too busy- and when I have, it’s been skimming. Also have not been too aware of the news-again, too much else going on- so I didn’t know about the story. I was thinking I just offered another side of it in my first post, but after re-reading, I see that I did commit smartassery in response to the tone of jcc’s initial post and the fact that it was OT, which I neglected to mention.
Your post makes me aware that I have been seriously neglecting my duties toward the various liberal conspiracies lately. I must find a way to make amends! Although at the doctor the other day, the nurse took my temp by rubbing a wand across my forehead. I asked her if she was one o’ dem Reptilian aliens in disguise and reading the microchips they had planted in my head. (Hey- she actually got the joke and laughed! Or was that just a cover-up, cuz she really is a Reptillian?):)
karen:
Which makes my point: ABC, NBC & CBS only report what’s good for liberals/liberalism (which is, by definition, bad for America) and embargo anything that is poisonous to, or contradicts their ultra-leftest worldview.
Good, that puts you light-years ahead of the rest of your atheist buddies.
Which investigation?—the one into how the “scientific” community manipulated/distorted/ignored/destroyed the climate data, or the one into how that conspiricy was finally exposed?
I am if I’m involved up to my eyeballs in a deliberate misrepresentation of facts…
Whether they were “mined” or not is beside the point—when they’re considered as a whole (i.e. in context), they demonstrate irrefutable malfeasance.
Uh, cultural impact: the Marxist choke-hold liberalism has on my country is showing strain.
And why is that?—oh yeah, the Marxist choke-hold liberals have on our “educational” system.
How was pointing out the abject ignorance and stupidity of liberals a “lack of Christian love?”
“Snark?” Pointing out the folly of liberals is “snark?”
Enjoy it while you can. Come this time next year, being as old as you are, your priority and permission to see a doctor will be determined by your all-knowing, benevolent messiah, Uh-bama.
Yes – & he was subsequently ignored the last time.
Hey, when little mouse used to talk to me, I committed that minor offense myself many times. No worries.
Uh-oh, rat’s outta the bag!
See, I TOLD YOU dating David Icke was a bad idea.
Wow,
After, on so many occasions, reading JaCCoff’s psuedo scientific explanations of biblical events, such as the flood, suddenly, I find myself in total agreement. I have stated it here, and other freethinker blogs:
1) No scientific evidence exists to prove that carbon dioxide has any different insulating properties that any other naturally occurring gas in our atmosphere.
2) Science does exist that prove that any greenhouse effect is actually caused by water vapor.
3) Science proves that warm and cold cycles have always been part of earth’s climatic cycles, even in historic times.
4) Data proves that the Earth has been in a decade long cooling cycle.
5) The presence of petroleum oil and natural gas in the Arctic Circle prove it was once a tropical swamp.
6) Al Gore is an asshole, assuming that if two things are occurring at the same time, they must be connected. Bad science.
And I could go on, and I do not wish to claim that as a general trend, the earth is not getting warmer, but I would put the idea to anyone who is not a moron, that if it weren’t, we would still be living in the “Ice Age” when glaciers miles deep were carving out the Hudson River Basin and the New York harbors. If any idiot thinks they can manipulate the cycle by bankrupting the coal industry, all they are doing is shitstomping America’s last best chance at energy independance. This based on an unsubstantiated radical unproven theory about cause and result. INSANE!!!!!!!!
These psuedo scientists have an agenda of their own, to create a sythetic demand for their unique expertise. To pretend to become the saviors of the planet, when all they are is a bunch of lying turds trying to get famous. And now that their scheme has been exposed, they are practicing damage control, like any politician. But, as JaCCoff said, the genie is out of the bottle, the bell cannot be unrung.
