Grist- Odd "climate" advice for Obama.  Wasn't "doing nothing" supposed to be the policy of the Great Satan Bush?
The bold move is to do nothing.
New claim from fraudster Michael Mann: Antarctica Is Warming
"Antarctica is warming, and it's warming at the same rate as the rest of the planet," said study co-author Michael Mann of Penn State University.
...
"People were calculating with their heads instead of actually doing the math," said lead author of the study Eric Steig, of the University of Washington in Seattle. "What we did is interpolate carefully instead of just using the back of an envelope."
Are we pumping so little money into climate science that these guys couldn't finance a full sheet of blank paper?

Just couldn't love this:
'"What we did is interpolate carefully instead of just using the back of an envelope." '

By 'carefully', I guess what is meant is that on the temperature-time plot the earlier points are joined together with curved lines that are dipped, becoming less dipped with time until the latest points have a pronounced hump joining them together. That'd work!
