The American Spectator

So, per the WSJ’s Environmental Capital blog, it seems that someone at the grassroots lobbying firm Bonner & Associates forged some letters to Members asking them to vote against the Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade energy rationing legislation which is based on the claim that the earth is alarmingly warming and computer model projections that it will get warmer still.

Bill co-author and Special Global Warming Committee (really) chairman Ed Markey is shocked, shocked that someone would engage in subterfuge on this issue, and vows a congressional investigation.

Pause.

Surely you remember Markey’s outrage over those falsehoods, frauds and far, far worse underlying his legislation’s express premise. Like the “Hockey Stick” swindle? His fulmination over Gore’s phony claims which were outed by the UK High Court? The fraud at University of Albany relating to a key, apparently fabricated data set relied upon by the IPCC for its claims? NASA repeatedly being caught in funny business with data, only to have the gremlins get back into the system and re-monkey the numbers after they’ve been corrected? Over taxpayer-funded surface temperature stations being moved from fields to parking lots, over air conditioning units and even barbeque grilles (and the data being used by NASA for it’s sexed up claims)? About EPA claiming that CO2 poses an “endangerment” to human health and the environment, demurring on the idea that it would perform its own research of the matter saying it outsourced that function to the IPCC (seriously), which, uh, says right there on its website that it conducts no research? You shrieked to the heavens over Team Gore smearing Roger Revelle in his grave, chasing Will Happer and Sherwood Idso out of government jobs, and their Doppelgangers’ current assault on EPA whistleblower Alan Carlin, didn’t you? And about torturing children so that they report nightmares, refuse water and even get committed after melting down from being told they’re contributing to an ongoing ecological crisis? About physical attacks and death threats against skeptic scientists for the crime of speaking out about science?

Right? 

Yeah, nary a whimper because, you know, that’s all chump change. I suppose I could go on. Like, maybe, write a book titled “Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Fraud and Deception to Keep You Misinformed” (talk about ammo for a special committee).

Please, congressman. Spare us your dudgeon.
