Right at the beginning of this debate, a contributor known as BC asserted that science and scientists had become politicised. I’m hearing this message from a number of sources.

BC goes on to say that he/she believes that, out a sense of frustration, the most-listened to climate scientists abandoned the scientific method and falsified data.

15 BC – Right wingers and conservatives blaming scientists for the politics of global warming is like Bart Simpson going “I didn’t do it.”

NO! Very emphatically!

If the e-mail record is shown to be authentic, the behaviour of these so-called “scientists” is such as to warrant that they be subject to investigation by their relevant professional bodies.

If the e-mail record is shown to be authentic, the individuals concerned have not just stepped a little bit over a line.

The senior staff, at the Hadley Climate Research Unit, have not only abandoned any pretence of being scientists – they seem to have adopted the mindset of a mafiosi organisation.

Phil Jones appears to be the bloke with his cheeks stuffed with cotton wool, at least on this level

He, along with a number of other “scientists” appear to have lied and have then tried to cover up their lies. This appears to have been going on for some time.
