And then again, sometimes it IS what the media says

Did you catch the CBS Evening News last night, with that perky Katie Couric?

Did you hear the lies they told about all the "10 hottest years have been since 1990", echoing The Prophet himself, algore and his nonsense?

Well, surprise surprise!

The truth is slightly different.

(hat tip: Fred Gregory)

WAY different.

Excerpts:

"Well, it turns out, according to the NASA GISS database, that 1998 was not even the hottest year of the last century."


"Government scientists using taxpayer money to develop the GISS temperature data base at taxpayer expense refuse to publicly release their temperature adjustment algorithms or software (In much the same way Michael Mann refused to release the details for scrutiny of his methodology behind the hockey stick)."

"This weeks Newsweek article and statements by Al Gore are basically aimed at suppressing any scientific criticism or challenge to global warming research. That is why NASA can keep its temperature algorithms secret, with no outside complaint, something that would cause howls of protest in any other area of scientific inquiry."

"I cannot get over the irony that in the same week Newsweek makes the case that climate science is settled and there is no room for skepticism, skeptics discover a gaping hole and error in the global warming numbers."

There's no irony about intellectual dishonesty to further certain political, social, and economic religious agendas that the acolytes of the Church of the Global Warming True Believers want everyone to accept as gospel.
