IPCC Crushes Scientific Objectivity, 91-0. « Roy Spencer, Ph. D.
The IPCC is totally obsessed with external forcing, that is, energy imbalances imposed upon the climate system that are NOT the result of the natural, internal workings of the system. For instance, a search through Chapter 9 for the phrase “external forcing” yields a total of 91 uses of that term. A search for the phrase “internal forcing” yields…(wait for it)…zero uses. Can we really believe that the IPCC has ruled out natural sources of global warming when such a glaring blind spot exists?There’s a logic there somewhere | Herald Sun Andrew Bolt Blog
...So we’ll get a tax that won’’t work to stop a warming that’s halted and which won’t apply to those it’s aimed at most.The Greenroom » Forum Archive » Have You Stopped Beating Your Climate Science Yet?
Dang, how I wish a candidate would respond forcefully and unapologetically on this issue! There is a great, great argument for doing exactly nothing… nothing but pure research for another twenty, thirty years until we have a tremendously better understanding of the basic science than we have now. Who knows? Maybe by 2030 or 2040 there will actually be a real scientific “consensus.”Record Cold for Lakeland, More Coming Monday | Lakeland, FL
LAKELAND | Sunday morning’s low temperatures in Lakeland were one for the record books.

Dr. Spencer's 91-0 rhetoric falls into the "false arguments" category.
The 3rd paragraph of the relevant section of the IPCC report: "It is... very unlikely that [the global pattern of warming] is due to known natural external causes alone."
2 things:
1. The phrase "external forcing" is used in reference to natural as well as man-made forcing. Their are 8 matches for the mouthful of a phrase "natural external forcing". 72 for "natural forcing"
2. "Internal forcing" is an arbitrary term. "Internal variability", a term I chose to search for before digging much into the text, yielded 68 matches. The PDO is mentioned 5 times. 35 matches for "cloud".
And so forth.
