Unions have seen Obama's presidency secure BILLIONS for them thus far and I can't see that trend ending soon. It was a lottery win for them.

(through which I make the religious ties to The Church of Climatology in what appears to be all too clever tongue and cheek) Try a reread. Your "consensus" is NOT that CO2 is even "a" (singular: meaning one) driving force in global or local climate. There is however a consensus that humanity can and does affect local climates which in turn can then affect a greater portion of an area but that too has been shown to be other than by your idol CO2. There is currently more work showing CO2 as being a "result of" heating cooling than a "cause of" such. Faith has bugger all to do with anything save for this new CO2 religion. Point of fact those trying to make points on CO2 are even now shifting to "ocean acidification" specifically because the pews are emptying and the casual members of the congregation are no longer buying into "CO2 is the devil".

Seriously? Sat, 16 Jan 2010 20:36:06 +0000 http://biggovernment.com/mikeflynn/2010/01/14/hide-the-job-decline-stimulus-funds-to-climategate-professor/#IDComment52330616 http://biggovernment.com/mikeflynn/2010/01/14/hide-the-job-decline-stimulus-funds-to-climategate-professor/#IDComment52330152 Faith is the available option when woefully shy of fact. I myself would call anyone who believes we know the driving mechanisms of our planet as any sort of absolute "a denier". Any scientist unwilling to allow his "findings" to be checked by an unassociated or affiliated agent "a denier". Any person unwilling to read the literature/case against his or her chosen position "a denier". Anyone whose faith in the science as being settled allowing no room for new data or to put it bluntly, those who see science as being both finite and static "a denier". Every day the "consensus" is being challenged without rebuttal by those who are very much the peers of Jones, Mann and Schmitt. Every day methods are having their flaws exposed. Every day models are proving themselves flawed to the point of ELOC's the data industry would find not only unacceptable but unworthy of "alpha" release. Every day more of those who make up the "consensus" are being outed as not being themselves scientists but "staff members". Every day answers to questions of raw data and scientific method are answered with not fact but verbiage glutted with religious fervor by defenders of "the faith".

I'll surprise you with this, there is significant "climate change" being affected directly by humanity and it indeed is serious but its not as you believe it to be. Not even close. If all you are reading is Real Climate or watching NatGeo, then that's all you'll know. Try both sides as I have with an open mind and discount nothing based upon the media outlets on either side. The glass teat is food for the foolish and never more so than now.

Duck's Unlimited and the Canadian Wildlife Federation have done more for Canada's wetlands and migration routes than all the protesting enviro-celebrities this country of mine has ever birthed or had emigrate to. Some people talk with religious fervor about the environment and some actually do something about it with both their incomes and bare hands.

As someone having worked with those in the concrete industry, I can guarantee you there are so many points being missed by those commenting in regard to construction as to render the whole thing a waste of characters. Forget not what happened in the 1976 Tangshan earthquake and why the death toll was last confirmed as 242,419. Its always about the structures around you in an earthquake.

Maybe Jones, Mann, Briffa and the rest of that little club constitute I'd be interested in reading your reply.

Sorry.

When did that happen?

How interesting.

As for press, why count your own left who have a vested interest in hiding all wrong doings with regard to Global Warming... Climate Change... Weather Politics... The Church of Climatology. Roger Pielke Sr just finished shredding NASA and GISS's latest attempt to duck but as you continue laud yourself as climate learned, you already knew this.

A little wager on midnight health care anyone?

The odds of that still surfacing once one person has put it forward are pretty darned good if not a near certainty. His millions might have bought a few weeks or even months but that's about it. There's your truth behind the action for you. Sarah Palin must still be smiling over Dave's thing with younger women. I wonder how many were pages and if its just a club he and Bill Clinton belong to?

It a compulsory for being a Democrat? If so I've little wonder why those like Goldberg and Letterman use their bully pulpit to minimize and misdirect from this type behavior by their own. Dave's own response was damage control too so lets not give praise where none is due lefties. He only came clean before Sarah Palin hit the web commenting.
