love how you back up your assertions...you do realize that the "deniers" have not been shown to flip graphs, cherry pick data and fudge statistics...oh, and vastly overexaggerate claims.....but the "climate scients" have

Michael Mann fabricator of the data of Climate Change and the infamous “Hockey Stick” has broken his silence in the Washington Post. Mann is currently under suspension from Penn State University where both his science and methods are under investigation; Mann was heavily involved with Phil Jones and his Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia where the Climategate emails, were leaked from, not hacked.

American Physicist angered at how climatologists…skewed data to…fit a pre-determined agenda
Dr. Charles R. Anderson Another well-qualified voice is added to the growing dissent in debunking the discredited greenhouse gas theory: Government is "not worthy of our trust."

Dr. Charles R. Anderson makes his announcement on his website (June 28, 2010) in joining a growing band of professional scientists, international academics and climate experts prepared to put their reputations on the line and denounce the orthodox views held by an influential clique of discredited government climatologists.

Richard Lindzen - Eminent climate scientist publishes study showing how British and American scientific institutions politicized the great global warming scare.

World-renowned climate scientist, Richard Lindzen, a lead author of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has mounted a robust debunk of a joint letter written by Martin Rees, President of the Royal Society and Ralph J. Cicerone, President of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. The letter is shown to be a politically-motivated and unsubstantiated public appeal written most likely with the intention to help save the now discredited theory of man-made global warming (AGW).

Lindzen’s 39-page detailed rebuttal scientifically refutes the Anglo-American appeal published in London’s Financial Times (April 9, 2010). The prestigious British press editorial was one of a line of prominent media reversals for the warmist lobby, following on from others such as that published in New Scientist.

Falloff in Public Concern Irks Science Institutions
The joint Rees Cicerone letter is one of several attempts by the scientific establishment to restore some credibility in government-funded climate science after the debacle of the Climategate scandal of November 2009
. Subsequently, the leaked emails from Britain’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) were analyzed by an independent investigation set up by the CRU. The inquiry found that scientists did cherry-pick data to ramp up fears of a climate change apocalypse. A climate scientist at the CRU had received government funding in excess of £13 million according to a report in Britain's Daily Telegraph (December 5, 2009)

Among other points, Lindzen addresses the Rees and Cicerone claim that “neither recent controversies, nor the recent cold weather, negate the consensus among scientists: something unprecedented is now happening.”

The so-called scientific ‘consensus’ referred to has been exposed as a fabrication and boiled down to the opinions of only 75 climatologists from over 19,000 of such accredited international experts.

Harold Lewis, emeritus professor of physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara, recently resigned from the American Physical Society (APS) after 67 years. In his resignation letter, he wrote about "… the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the Climategate documents, which lay it bare.

where are all of the lying, discredited "deniers"?...hopefully not trying to enjoy some summer beach time on Australia's Southeastern Coast...or Florida for that matter...
