The EPA Silences a Climate Skeptic … What! You mean there are any?

If you have followed this blog, recently, or in it’s first 4 year incarnation, you know I’ve been a huge skeptic … no, make that “opponent”, of the great global climate warming theory … no, make that “scam”. I will, in fact, try to get the time to transfer/resurrect more of my past writings on that topic. but meanwhile, I’ll keep on keepin on with new postings. Such as this.  

This one is not exactly my own. I could try to rewrite it so it would appear to be so, but the truth is, I couldn’t really add anything to make it better, in writing, in the important details, or in getting the point made. So I will simply post this excerpt, and give you the proper credit and reference to the original. The title was/is, “The EPA Silences a Climate Skeptic“. The author, Kimberley Strassel. The publisher, the Wall Street Journal (July 3, 2009) Here it is:

Mr. Carlin and a colleague presented a 98-page analysis arguing the agency should take another look, as the science behind man-made global warming is inconclusive at best. The analysis noted that global temperatures were on a downward trend. It pointed out problems with climate models. It highlighted new research that contradicts apocalyptic scenarios. “We believe our concerns and reservations are sufficiently important to warrant a serious review of the science by EPA,” the report read.

The response to Mr. Carlin was an email from his boss, Al McGartland, forbidding him from “any direct communication” with anyone outside of his office with regard to his analysis. When Mr. Carlin tried again to disseminate his analysis, Mr. McGartland decreed: “The administrator and the administration have decided to move forward on endangerment, and your comments do not help the legal or policy case for this decision. . . . I can only see one impact of your comments given where we are in the process, and that would be a very negative impact on our office.” (Emphasis added.)

Mr. McGartland blasted yet another email: “With the endangerment finding nearly final, you need to move on to other issues and subjects. I don’t want you to spend any additional EPA time on climate change. No papers, no research etc, at least until we see what EPA is going to do with Climate.” Ideology? Nope, not here. Just us science folk. Honest.

Are you willing to drastically change your, and all the U.S. of A’s, economy and way of life when this is the sort of gerrymandering of science and politics is going on to underwrite the policies and politics of Obama and the Democrats in Congress to (unilaterally) “save the world” (well, a quarter of a degree F of warming in the next half century)?

By the way, Mr. Carlin, a senior analyst in the EPA’s National Center for Environmental Economics and a 35-year veteran of the agency.

    China and Russia put the blame on some screwed up experiments of US for the earthquake that happened in Haiti.
    Chinese and Russian Military scientists, these reports say, are concurring with Canadian researcher, and former Asia-Pacific Bureau Chief of Forbes Magazine, Benjamin Fulford, who in a very disturbing video released from his Japanese offices to the American public, details how the United States attacked China by the firing of a 90 Million Volt Shockwave from the Americans High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) facilities in Alaska
    If we can recollect a previous news when US blamed Russia for the earthquake in Georgio. What do you guys think? Is it really possible to create an earthquake by humans?
    I came across this article about Haiti Earthquake in some blog it seems very interesting, but conspiracy theories have always been there.
