I am amazed that all these stupid Liberal Scientists keep trying to fleece the US by trying convince us that Climate Change is an issue. I mean, we already proved that it was bullshit with those emails last year but these guys are worse that the 419 Nigerian guys, they just never give up.

**GIGOBuster** , as our resident warmist/alarmist, just last week pointed out one of these liberal shysters who had the temerity to fleece our next President’s brothers. Richard Muller, a noted San Francisco Liberal Activist and Berkeley elite, published data saying that the warming was all real and **GIGO** swallowed it hook, line, and sinker. Luckily another scientist involved in the project, one with more integrity, pointed out his greed and dishonesty.

Well, I don’t want to go over that again, I mean there is only so long you can point and laugh at the gullible liberals. This is about yet another group of Socialist Traitors who issued a [report on Climate Chang last week (pdf)](http://www.fas.org/irp/agency/dod/dsb/climate.pdf). I am getting sick of this shit, we should investigate these “scientists” for unAmerican activities. :mad: How much money could we save the taxpayers if we made climate research illegal. I am going to keep looking into this group and if they took any taxpayer money to write this garbage, you had better believe my congress people will hear about it!

432 days and counting until we get our country back!!!11!

Please tell me this is Parody. Climategate was pretty much completely debunked, by the way.

I missed that in the whole crazy news-storm. Can you post a cite? I’d like to be able to point to a specific source when debating.

Here is a cite: [Climate Gate ignored by socialist](http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/7794-despite-climategate-romney-still-believes-in-manmade-global-warming).

I also vote for parody. Not a particularly good one, but parody nonetheless.

P.S. Accusing anyone in US politics of being a socialist is legitimately hilarious though.

[Let me google that for you](http://lmgtfy.com/?q=climategate+vindicated)

[First](http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/07/07/world/main6653464.shtml)  
[Three](http://www.treehugger.com/corporate-responsibility/3rd-major-climategate-investigation-vindicates-scientists-again.html)  
[Results](http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/intersection/2011/02/26/another-climategate-vindication-although-one-scientist-did-make-a-cartoon/)

With the notable exception of all the idiot deniers, pretty much everyone who’s looking into the leaked emails has come to the same conclusion: there never was any climategate. It was all a bunch of trumped up bullshit that deniers paraded around like they’d found the Holy Grail.

Edit: Don’t know if parody…

Oh please, [TreeHugger.com](http://TreeHugger.com)? CBS News (communist broadcasting service)? And last (and certainly least), Discover Magazine? Really, you expect me to believe Discover Magazine on this issue? These guys are on the climate change gravy train! Let me guess, next you will pull out _Science_ or _Nature_ and pretend like it is non-partisan on this issue.

Here is the only site I could find that I actually trust to be relatively non-partisan on this issue:
