Remember all the hype related to changes in the weather?
They called it the ominous climate change and then more recently graduated to [cue Imperial March theme music] g l o b a l w a r m i n gggggg...!!!
And then these schmucks posing as scientists are caught in one 'let's manipulate data and thereby the general population through the sock-puppet media' scandal after another.
Oh!
But Freak-y!
Where's your proof?
Whenever the naysayers are given proof of the duplicity of the movement--- and that's what it is, without question--- the same refute any and all because it didn't come from the inside... and everyone knows: if it's not from the inside, then it's an attack from people who don't know.
(It's not really all that well known, really, but it's still a position some people take, as though only those who swear allegiance can possibly tell the truth about their object of worship)
Now John Bates (recently retired principle scientist at the National Climatic Data Center) comes forward and drops the dime on some of his fellow parishioners.
At a time when it was most expedient, the NOOA released information with, to paraphrase it from Bates himself, a thumb on the scale--- in order to portray the situation as dire and necessitating political action (read: grants and funds).
Global warming (nee Climate Change, nee Weather Changing) takes a hiatus!
Who knew?
