Meanwhile, in other news…
…this may be bluster. Or perhaps not.
The deficit marches on.
AGW and the IPCC absorb more body blows. But is anybody but the conservative echo chamber listening?

A blog about political change, among other things
“The Iranian president made the remarks as the 31st anniversary of the Islamic Revolution approaches.
Iranians are expected to pour into the streets on February 11 to celebrate the occasion in public rallies across the country, as they have done annually over the past three decades.”
…or the beatings will continue. I’ll bet they play Kool and the Gang’s “Celebration”. You just can’t NOT get out and celebrate when they play that.
If you head over to wattsupwiththat.com, you’ll find that the IPCC report has developed more holes than a piece of swiss cheese. The entire AGW has totally come undone in the last two months, but our Prez still wants his cap and trade.
I’m planning on being the fly in the ointment next week at my college’s sustainability teach-in (yeah they still think it’s the 60’s).
This spoof of climate science may be of interest:

But is anybody but the conservative echo chamber listening?
According to latest Pew Poll global warming is dead last for Americans.
ClimateGate and IPCCGate don’t get much coverage but it’s clear the information is leaking out and undermining the public’s interest.
Combined with some really nasty winter weather of course.
We may have to guess Ahmadinejad’s real name to end this foolishness. According to John Derbyshire it’s The Poison Dwarf.
but would push the red ink down to about $700 billion… by 2013, according to congressional aides.
Has anyone else noticed that with this outfit whenever the word by appears it is always followed with a number > 2012?
I once worked with an engineer who emigrated from the old USSR.
It was kind of comical listening to the stories of his and his wife’s reactions when they managed to get out of the old Soviet Union, and saw for themselves that yes, the grocery stores really were full of food – all of the time.
I’m wondering if *environmentally sensitive* Americans travelling abroad in the future are going to have the same level of culture shock when they get beyond what passes for news from the MSM on this issue and start listening to other news sources from around the world….
One thing I want to know is, is this Dr Rajendra Patchouli going to acknowledge the work of Kathy Plummer, Mark Kuluva, and “Kicki” Kolenkark for providing a lot of the data he used which they recorded out in their club house the afternoon they got hold of a rectal thermometer and decided to play ER using their 12 year old Basset hound as a patient?
Actually the London Telegraph has been pretty good at pulling the curtian back. Our Msm has way too much invested in the scam, they’ll hold out as long as possible. Rajun Patchouli may be the first one brought down.
Patchouli, I like that, thank’s Nolan.
Check out the comments below the Iran story at the link. Horrible Jew-hatred there — and obviously not all from Muslims, either.
Bob from Virginia nails it with this line:
in todays news:
Leaked climate change emails scientist ‘hid’ data flaws
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/feb/01/leaked-emails-climate-jones-chinese
A Guardian investigation of thousands of emails and documents apparently hacked from the University of East Anglia’s climatic research unit has found evidence that a series of measurements from Chinese weather stations were seriously flawed and that documents relating to them could not be produced.
you dont say…
Today the Guardian reveals how Jones withheld the information requested under freedom of information laws. Subsequently a senior colleague told him he feared that Jones’s collaborator, Wei-Chyung Wang of the University at Albany, had “screwed up”.
you dont say…
The Guardian has learned that of 105 freedom of information requests to the university concerning the climatic research unit (CRU), which Jones headed up to the end of December, only 10 had been released in full.
The temperature data from the Chinese weather stations measured the warming there over the past half century and appeared in a 1990 paper in the prestigious journal Nature, which was cited by the IPCC’s latest report in 2007.
you dont say…
In an interview with the Observer on Sunday Ed Miliband, the climate change secretary, warned of the danger of a public backlash against mainstream climate science over claims that scientists manipulated data. He declared a “battle” against the “siren voices” who denied global warming was real or caused by humans. “It’s right that there’s rigour applied to all the reports about climate change, but I think it would be wrong that when a mistake is made it’s somehow used to undermine the overwhelming picture that’s there,” he said.
did he really say that?
lets see… you find out ford fudged the data for the rear end collisions, which caused explosions of fire to engulf the passengers… and finding that out, this man would think that putting his family in such a vehicle, is just fine… (no? why not? oh, its his family, not yours… why is that different? he is progressive and more important than you, obviously).
i wondered what the future will really be
but they didnt say
🙂
Neo, please, if you write of the “Conservative Echo Chamber” quote it. It’s a myth; the problem isn’t that conservatives are in an echo chamber but that Lefties are wearing earplugs that constantly play their mantras. We must not help this
mythlie survive.As I write Obama speaking against irresponsible government spending. He finally figured out how to increase his popularity; running against himself.
njcommuter: when I use that term, I don’t actually mean anything negative by it. I just mean that we (and most groups) tend to do a lot of talking amongst ourselves. Much of what we say, and what we read, stays here and doesn’t get out to the public at large. I don’t mean that we don’t read and hear other opinions ourselves, necessarily.
