So Wise in the Ways of Science

Ah, science! That Climate Research Unit data dump doesn't put those climate change scientists in a very good light, now does it?

For more than a decade, we've been told that there is a scientific "consensus" that humans are causing global warming, that "the debate is over" and all "legitimate" scientists acknowledge the truth of global warming. Now we know what this "consensus" really means. What it means is: the fix is in.


Silly skeptics! Those who are wise in the ways of science won't question the scientists' methods.




"The planet is warming out of control! The models prove it! Kill the economy!"

But hasn't the planet stopped warming the last decade?

"Well, it got better."

They're "deniers!" Buuurn them!

The scientists ought to just end the pretense, take off their lab coats, and put on robes.

And then walk about slamming copies of Al Gore's latest book against their foreheads.

UPDATE: I only aspire to mildly clever. This is funny.

UPDATE: And a serious take on the politics of global warming "scientists." My God, those jokers really are (figuratively) suggesting that coconuts are migratory.
