Climategate – perpetrators, perpetuators, by-standers and victims
[The MSM isn't] saying much, if anything. Rush Limbaugh had an entire 3 hours on the Climate gate scam. Had he been calling out some Hollywood type, the media would have been all over this, but alas, not a peep. It is clear that they feel strongly about the subject so what gives? Clearly, they are in on the fraud. I will acknowledge that they may not have been aware of the exaggerations and other Tom-foolery (That is a highly qualified "may"), but it is now crystal clear that they want to perpetuate the story in light of evidence that it may, in fact, be a lie.

Jeffery Imelt (GE) is so heavily invested in the global warming hoax, its failure will bring him financial devastation. http://bit.ly/70aCYn

Did the Climatic Research Unit also “hide the decline” in Europe?
A climate of suspicion
Taxpayers in the developed countries have reason to worry that they will be taken to the cleaners at Copenhagen. If rich countries get tight targets for carbon emissions and poor ones get technology transfers and subsidies (through sellable carbon-offset credits) to "green their industrialisation", then it looks less like a cleanup and more like a redistribution of productive capacity. Many programmes that appear reasonable in academic or political conclaves will prove explosive when exposed to the oxygen of democracy.

Al Gore and his ilk would not be shaken in the least by contrary scientific findings because the climate change scam is not driven by science. It is a campaign driven by the end the believers seek – an agenda of political, economic and social control. The science is simply a convenient means to that end. In fact, climate change belief is the opposite of science. It is a faith, a pagan religion complete with infallible doctrines, ritual sacrifices and even heretics who must be burned at the (so far) figurative stake.

There is a reason the United Nations conference in Copenhagen is going to agree on nothing very definite and it is not the fault of governments. It comes down to you and me. We don't really believe in this, do we?

Whenever I hear the problem of global warming raised in ordinary conversation, it is a joke. The subject still feels false, academic, more than faintly ridiculous. Doubtless there are people who can discuss it seriously in casual conversation but I don't know them. Everyone I hear remains an open sceptic or takes an attitude of resigned acceptance.

The sceptics are keen to talk about it, scathingly, the resigned acceptors don't want to discuss it at all. In their hearts they still doubt it. Only their heads have surrendered to the scientific consensus.
