Climate Charlatans & The Wizard of Oz

Peeking behind the CAGW alarmist 'True Lies'
Click here for a recent example of CAGW alarmist “true lies” (wherein a CAGW alarmist presents evidence of a linear warming trend apparent in the RSS satellite dataset).
True lies? Yep.
The “true” part relates to the citation of the RSS satellite dataset. Peer reviewed science has demonstrated the IPCC surface temperature data to be wildly unreliable. Therefore, it is encouraging to see the citation of the far more reliable RSS satellite data.
The “lies” (by omission) result from:
1) The failure to provide proper CONTEXT to the RSS data. You see, the RSS data spans January 1979 through today. And, the slight warming trend apparent in that data directly coincides with the 1979 to 1998 AMO warming cycle. That warming cycle plateaued in 1998. Coincidentally (or not) the alarmists at NOAA admit that:
(At least the alarmists at NOAA are honest enough to remove the El Niño induced noise from their presentation of the significance of the data.)
3) The bottom has recently dropped out of the Sea Surface Temperatures.
My prediction, substantiated in my AMO post, calls for a continuation of an essentially flat temperature trend through 2018 followed by about 30 years of substantial global cooling (at which point the climate charlatans will -- once again -- tell us we will all freeze to death unless big government steps in to save us).
So, the next time a purely political propagandist tries to present you with an Oz-like climate magic show, pull back the curtain and take a look at the charlatan hiding behind the curtain of “true lies”.

“The trend in the ENSO-related component for 1999–2008 is +0.08±0.07°C decade, fully accounting for the overall observed trend. The trend after removing ENSO (the "ENSO-adjusted" trend) is 0.00°±0.05°C decade.”2) The failure to note that the 2010 El Niño induced warming is OVER and global temperatures are now back to the statistically flat trend of the last 15 years.

Eight Botched Environmental Forecasts
(from 12/30/2010):
“A new year is around the corner, and some climate scientists and environmental activists say that means we're one step closer to a climate Armageddon. But are we really?
Predicting the weather -- especially a decade or more in advance -- is unbelievably challenging. What's the track record of those most worried about global warming? Decades ago, what did prominent scientists think the environment would be like in 2010? FoxNews.com has compiled eight of the most egregiously mistaken predictions, and asked the predictors to reflect on what really happened.”
My prediction:
A continuation of no global warming through 2018.
Then, 30 years of substantial global cooling.

Holy Grail of Climate Change - Deception Continues
Every climate scientist will freely admit that CO2 alone would NEVER have enough warming effect to whip up any concerns AT ALL! The linchpin of Catastrophic Man Made Global Warming hysteria has always been the question of how water vapor responds to the tiny amount of warming caused by CO2. Every IPCC computer model blindly assumes a positive water vapor feedback mechanism which creates catastrophic warming (even though CO2 levels 22 times higher than today failed to create any such “tipping point” of runaway global warming).
The latest research is increasingly demonstrating the obvious -- that the IPCC computer model blind assumptions are not merely wrong, but entirely upside down! At stake is the next $100 billion dollars in government gravy train research money as well as tens of TRILLIONS of dollars in government subsidies to “fix” the alleged “problem”.
Enter the latest dueling research papers:
Quoting Climatologist Dr. Roy W. Spencer: Click the image & read the rest:
The simple truth is that, owing to the rapidly cooling oceans and the reversing AMO cycle, all this debate will soon be moot and every scam artist associated with this religious cult will soon have to find a new con to run -- most likely, a rerun of the Global Cooling hysteria.

Enter the latest dueling research papers:
“What we demonstrated in our JGR paper earlier this year is that when cloud changes cause temperature changes, it gives the illusion of positive cloud feedback – even if strongly negative cloud feedback is really operating!
I can not overemphasize the importance of that last statement…
The Dessler paper is like someone publishing a medical research paper that claims those tumors do not exist, because they still do not show up on our latest X-ray equipment…even though the new MRI technology shows they DO exist!
Sound strange? Welcome to my world.”

Canada Cuts Corporate Tax AGAIN!
Canadians are beginning to reject Socialism.
Naturally, they are creating jobs & we are NOT:
Click here for another report on this tax cut.
Click here & compare USA corporate tax rates.
Now, if only both countries would reject Socialist Health Care!
So, Canada is benefiting from rising commodity prices?
A BIG part of that is the Canadian Oil Sands.
Canadians have given their eco-nuts a swift kick in the groin.
That has left Canada with the second highest proven oil reserves.
But, if we kicked OUR eco-nuts to the curb,
we would have -- BY FAR -- the highest proven reserves!
So, people, isn’t about time we wised up too?
How about BOTH countries reject ALL of the Socialist crap!
Weibrecht's Crazy Ride Down Birds of Prey
Andrew Weibrecht’s downhill race on Birds of Prey.
(Arguably the toughest downhill course in the world.)
Described as:
“the most exciting downhill run of the 2007 Birds of Prey race”
It’s a wild ride but showing unbelievable grace:
