Cowardly Congress Cancels Climate Consensus Killer

[travelinman67]

Surprise!!!

House Democrats, who had scheduled a hearing on "Global Warming" today, during which America's Biggest Liar Al Gore has been scheduled to testify, has canceled the testimony of Lord Christopher Monckton, a leading Climate Change skeptic and well known public advocate against Alarmist censorship.

...before reading...here's what really happened...

Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment Chair, Henry Waxman, no peer to Gore's stature as a lying POS, attempted to pull a Friday "grandstand" by "secretly" slipping in Gore's testimony for weekend news broken record repetition. Committee Republicans, suspecting this move, requested their own "secret" witness be allowed to testify ALONGSIDE the Dems...which Waxman originally agreed to allow.
Once learning it was Lord Monckton some time yesterday, Waxman and Gore freaked out and cancelled his testimony...which Lord Monckton learned about at the last minute upon arriving in Washington.

...the why?...

Lord Monckton is a walking encyclopedia of all things Climate Change, with the ability to recall thousands of scientific facts and their supporting studies. He has been challenged to debate the Climate Change theory by several staunch AGW advocates...which he always heartily accepts...to which he devours his debate opponents (I've heard a few of the debates...and it ain't pretty...he's cool, never hesitates, and his encyclopedic breadth of knowledge is spooky...very well organized, articulate and polite to boot...)

...the Bottomline...

Were Monckton allowed to testify alongside Gore...he would put an end to the folly of this scam once and for all and exposed Al Gore as a liar and a coward.

Report: Democrats Refuse to Allow Skeptic to Testify Alongside Gore At Congressional Hearing
'House Democrats don't want Gore humiliated'

Washington, DC -- UK's Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, claimed House Democrats have refused to allow him to appear alongside former Vice President Al Gore at a high profile global warming hearing on Friday April 24, 2009 at 10am in Washington. Monckton told Climate Depot that the Democrats rescinded his scheduled joint appearance at the House Energy and Commerce hearing on Friday. Monckton said he was informed that he would not be allowed to testify alongside Gore when his plane landed from England Thursday afternoon.

“The House Democrats don't want Gore humiliated, so they slammed the door of the Capitol in my face,” Monckton told Climate Depot in an exclusive interview. “They are cowards.”

According to Monckton, Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas), Ranking Member on the Energy & Commerce Committee, had invited him to go head to head with Gore and testify at the hearing on Capitol Hill Friday. But Monckton now says that when his airplane from London landed in the U.S. on Thursday, he was informed that the former Vice-President had “chickened out” and there would be no joint appearance. Gore is scheduled to testify on Friday to the Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment's fourth day of hearings on the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009. The hearing will be held in 2123 Rayburn House Office Building.

Excellent post, T! Well documented.

As is common in American politics, our reach exceeds our grasp.

Bush's excessive reach gave the lefties a golden opportunity to take over for generations, but their own self-destructive excessive reach will rescue us sooner or later.

Incredibly, in their irrational exuberance, the Democrats' tin ear is even worse than George Bush's!

No. Conservatives have known for years AlGore is an idiot.

Interesting! The failure to achieve full alliteration is due to the occasional soft sound of the letter, "C."

Global Warmists' Sly Polar Disorder

April 24, 2009
By Marc Sheppard

If there’s one thing climate alarmists have become quite good at, it’s retrofitting both their computer models and the climate phenomena those models predict whenever they fail to do so correctly. And whether projecting increases in temperature, sea levels or atmospheric carbon dioxide – that means often. But some of the most brazen intellectual corruption warmists have committed under fire concerns the sometimes polar opposite trends of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice...

...A study published Wednesday by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) confirms that Antarctic ice is indeed continuing to expand. But does that suggest there’s no global warming taking place? Quite the contrary, insists lead author John Turner. Actually, there’s another phenomenon that’s temporarily canceling out warming’s effects -- the hole in the ozone layer. That’s right, the “depletion of the protective ozone layer has altered wind patterns and caused temperatures in most of the southern continent to fall so that more cold air flows over the Southern Ocean, freezing the water.”

And according to the report, that accounts for every bit of southern hemisphere ocean ice cover increase over the past 30 years. Strangely, the report puts that growth at about 1% per decade, while the NSIDC calculates that rate at nearly 5%. But why quibble? I’m sure it must have been an honest mistake.

Anyway, here’s the real beauty of this new study.

As Dr. Turner explains:
"While there is increasing evidence that the loss of sea ice in the Arctic has occurred due to human activity, in the Antarctic, human influence through the ozone hole has had the reverse effect and resulted in more ice.”

Outstanding play, that.

Point One -- Our gas-guzzling SUVs and coal-fired power stations release CO2 into the atmosphere. Point Two -- According to more than a few scientists those additional molecules are wholly or partially to blame for the late 20th century warming period. Point Three -- Our air-conditioners, hairsprays and deodorants once released chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) into the atmosphere. Point Four -- Most scientists blame their stratospheric decomposition for depletion of the planet’s vital Ozone Layer and the Ozone hole in the polar vortex over Antarctica.

Conclusion -- The selfish actions that melt northern sea ice would do the same to southern sea ice were it not for yet another group of our selfish actions. What exquisite eco-perfection...

Seems to me the light of day is what's causing all the polar ice problems in the first place.

So the sun is what is making the Earth hot, so the sun causes Global Warming? Holy hell you mean it isn't mean driving my car to the grocery story and buying over packaged items that aren't organic? No fucking way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



We need to block the sun from the Eart's surface ASAP

Apparently "transparency" does not apply to anything that the donks feel they will get beat at...and this debate is one that they are quickly starting to lose...

So, nothing new to see here...

I wonder if Monckton's views on climate change are well thought out like his view on AIDS?

"there is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month ... all those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently."

This is a prime reason why no one sane can take T-man's threads seriously. He quotes WHACKOS like the gospel.

Hey, respect the whacko! He has a hereditary peerage, and thus, is better than common folk like you and me!

So, nothing new to see here...

1) I wish 100% of the information was available and could be reviewed by experts with no stake in the outcome
2) Gore will never be held accountable for his inaccuracies and wild exaggerations

In that case - he should post here in the poli wing. He fit in with many of the posters that are already here.
