No surprize

I hesitated on posting about the hacked emails because it was Friday and it all sounded too good to be true.

Thankfully, it wasn’t.

Also thankfully, we had some very important things confirmed.

Astonishingly, what appears, at least at first blush, to have emerged is that (a) the scientists have been manipulating the raw temperature figures to show a relentlessly rising global warming trend; (b) they have consistently refused outsiders access to the raw data; (c) the scientists have been trying to avoid freedom of information requests; and (d) they have been discussing ways to prevent papers by dissenting scientists being published in learned journals.

In other words, these High Priests of the Global Warming Death Cult were doing exactly everything skeptics claimed they were.

For the most part, the leftosphere has ignored this story. Even with the NYT and WaPo writing full length articles about it, they have boycotted the issue even more thoroughly than they did the story about reducing breast cancer screenings.

It must hurt emotionally to have your fear-filled pseudo-religion fall to pieces around your head. This is on the scale of finding Robert Welch’s diary and reading where he wrote “Marx was a genius!”

Don’t go feeling sorry for them though. They deserve to have their noses rubbed in this manure and be mocked for their lack of inquisitve nature for the next decade or so.
