The Church of Anthropogenic Global Warming is still trying their damnedest to keep the global warming hype running, but Europe especially (where the press coverage isn’t stifled on the subject) and now the US isn’t buying their bullshit anymore.
Congress shot down the cap and trade legislation that Obama so dearly wanted, postponing the bill indefinitely in the Senate and until 2017 in the House.
Further issues being dug up in the Climategate emails have shown the “science” behind the entire global warming industry to be utterly false. In fact, it is fair at this point, with all the evidence at hand, to state that those involved at the core of the movement purposely lied about all of the proposed crisis and that most of the actual data and their models used for climate prediction are completely wrong. Furthermore, there is direct evidence of a corruption of the peer review process, black-balling any study or paper which conflicted with the desired global warming hype.
The most telling of the hard data released so far, is what is referred to as the “Readme Harry” document, which describes the painstaking attempt by a programmer to make sense of nonsensical data. There is so much in this 247 page document that it’s hard to take it all in at one sitting, but many have done just that and broke down the results.
Flopping Aces covers the Readme Harry document specifically, and Small Dead Animals has a slew of useful links on the document and related material.

I have long doubted the stupidity regurgitated ad nauseum from the Church of Anthropogenic Global Warming, as I’ve called them – but this finalizes my stance. Those pushing the global warming agenda are religionists, with the same asinine mentality of anyone following a faith. No logic, evidence or examination is allowed in their belief system and so I will discard it like any other superstitious nonsense.
My fear at this point, is that the damage is going to be so overwhelming to the scientific community in general, that it will undermine all branches of science – creating an unhealthy, over-reactive public rejection of science itself. Science as a discipline ends up crucified by the actions of a global warming cult.
As if we didn’t have enough religious stupidity trying to drag us back into the Dark Ages as it was.
On a humorous side note, Micheal Mann, creator of the infamously flawed and utterly debunked “hockey stick” graph, has threatened to sue Minnesotans for Global Warming (M4GW), over a parody video they made, called “Hide the Decline”, aired on Youtube.com. (I won’t post a link here, because it comes and goes. Just search for it on Youtube.)
No Cap and Trade, which came to M4GW’s defense, actually desires the lawsuit to come, because it would force Mann to release his data under full disclosure to the court.
