Well, guess what? That UK climate scientist is temporaily stepping down.
"Britain's University of East Anglia says the director of its prestigious Climatic Research Unit is stepping down pending an investigation into allegations that he overstated the case for man-made climate change."
I guess "overstated" is the new word for "lied and hid." However, since a lot of people are making a fortune off of this thing, how many think it will just disappear? That is, disappear for those who have actually reported on it.
I have a question: What is your real motivation for denying climate change?
Is it an economic reason that you deny this is happening largely as a consequence of man made global pollutants, or is it a political reason, as the right has used Al Gore as their lightning rod to politicize a scientific argument, not a political one. If neither of those, how do you consistently deny that rising temperatures are not showing copious examples of potentially irreversible change?
I would estimate between 40 to 60% of deniers have no clue as to why they think man is not causing this but instead do so for a combination of reasons, mainly the radical rightwing attempts to deny this is happening (George W. Bush, Sen. Inhofe, Rush Limbaugh, FOX, etc., etc..) being the primary reason(s).
Really disgusting.
Why don't you ask me if I am still beating my wife?

Odanny,
Care to comment about this global warming hoax now? These libs a year from now will deny every having believed in this scam.
Another question- Now that we know the climate is cooling, should we INCREASE CO2 production and burning of fossil fuels? Sounds like a great idea! It is funny how academic disingenuousness rises up to bite one in the ass. Let's burn more carbon!

Are you kidding? It is now absolutely proven to be a hoax. Do you need any more evidence than these so-called "scientists" own emails to one anohter?
Give me a break. It is the lie that we always knew it was!
FYI - You're probably not old enough to know this, but the personal computer industry in this country was born and first thrived in Texas.
Ever hear of a little company called "Texas Instruments"?
Your smug elitism is so overwhelming that it can be hard to breathe after reading one of your posts. The only reason you're not on my ignore list is that you're just so darn entertaining! I don't take much of anything you say seriously, though. You're so totally blinded by ideology and party politics that you're completely useless when it comes to any form of debate.
But that's just how you are, and you're very entertaining when you post. Keep on truckin'!
