American Thinker: The Planet Cools While Romm Burns
After dismissing American (non-)Thinker (mighty clever these green types) as not a "credible source worth wasting time on," The Climate (Alarmists Against) Progress (touché) editor nonetheless wasted more than 2300 words worth of time attempting to discredit us. The crux of his argument was that while he admits his phraseology was far from stellar, I was way out of line in my analysis that his words were "grossly exaggerating the already hyped predictions of his fellow climate hysterics." But his supporting statements followed the same strange pattern as his original assertions -- two inflated from cherry-picked data and the third completely unfathomable.Powering Past Coal in Michigan, Leaving No One Behind « It’s Getting Hot In Here
Before refuting my refutations, Romm attempted to drain some hysteria from his words by confessing them to be poorly chosen -- not a strong rebuke opener in anyone's book...
The wheels of the coal propaganda machine have been turning in Michigan! Duped community members display signs reading “Clean Coal = Michigan Jobs,” and hundreds of union workers from the electricians, the brick layers, the boiler makers, and the iron workers wore America’s Power’s clean coal t-shirts. The union leadership, understandably grasping for any jobs to be found, required them to be there.Skeptic's Corner: Gerhard Kramm- Professor University of Alaska Fairbanks, College of Natural Science and Mathematics
There was a tangible tension in the air. Again, understandably so. The coal propaganda machine has been working overtime, and old school environmentalism has left much of the working class with a deepset distrust of anyone resembling an environmentalist. We will need to overcome this to win the world we want.
By far, most of the IPCC members can be considered, indeed, as members of a Church of Global Warming. They are not qualified enough to understand the physics behind the greenhouse effect and to prove the accuracy of global climate models (see, for instance, the poor publication record of Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri, the current Chairman of the IPCC). However, in science it would be highly awkward to vote which results are correct and which are wrong..
