Kevin Blodgett (guest) LA:
Again, I am going to point out three things: 1) one cannot logically assume that the actions of a single group of climatologists is representative of all climate scientists. This is no different than a militant atheist saying all Christians are Hitler. It's that level of nonsense. 2) The e-mails and what the scientists apparently did with the data does not support the idea that global warming is not occurring. Try as you might to interpret this data in that fashion, it's not factual reality. 3) Even if we assume the worst to be true, this study would NOT magically overthrow the hundreds upon hundreds of methodologically sound studies created using independent data and methodologies that substantiate AGW. This isn't "spin," this is pretty basic logic here, guys. There's a reason why 85-90% of all climatologists accept AGW: it's a well-supported scientific consensus.
