Congressman Brad Miller broke great news here that he is opening a Tipline for scientists censored or silenced by The War on Science.
Every human being on this planet is a victim of the War On Science.
In the last 30 years, for instance, while our CO2 levels skyrocketed, desertification has doubled:"the fraction of global land experiencing very dry conditions (defined as - 3 or less on the Palmer Drought Severity Index) rose from about 10 - 15% in the early 1970s to about 30% by 2002.
Almost half of that change is due to rising temperatures rather than decreases in rainfall or snowfall."
.
We are truly up shit creek.
We really need someone in charge in congress who can put the smack down on a War On Science that is destroying this planet - which really IS our only chance at survival.
So heres my tip to send to Congressman Brad Millers new Tipline:
raines diaried an excellent expose of how the notorious Swiftboater and Rush Limbaugh's Man In Washington, Marc Moranois working right inside Senator Inohofes office

to set this thousand screaming weasel pack to threaten The Weather Channel for daring to run a little halfhour show Sunday nights about the science of global warming:
How sad, the Weather Channel has turned into a bunch of screaming, stupid socialists; i.e. Al Gore, Miss Cullen. Very enlightening. We thought we could trust you well, that's how dangerous socialists work, isn't it? We will no longer watch and will email sponsors regarding boycott. Very enlightening and very pathetic. The environmental socialists now include the Weather Channel.

The possibility that the earth has warmed over the last 100 years is nothing more than an anecdote. Climatic variation has been the rule for the 4 billion years of earth's history, not the exception. It is the panic laden presentation you make about this that seems so ridiculous.
The whole discussion is laced with calls for higher taxes, more research grants, and restrictions on liberty far out of proportion to any rational assessment of the consequences. As long as that is the case, any pretense of scientific objectivity is going to be suspect.
Why not try something more convincing, like showing with a 95% confidence level that there has been a negative correlation over the past 100 years between terrestial temperatures and solar output. That at least would be science.
Dr Cullen came in for all this attention by the frontline troops in the partly Exxon funded War On Science not only for telling the truth about global warming, but because she had the temerity to suggest that, just like other professionals such as Insurance Risk Analysts, Meteorologists should be certified to indicate that they know the current state of science on climate change.
Like we have been getting doctors, say, to agree to adhere to the theory that it is not evil spells, but rather germs that cause disease.
In typical Socialistic manner, your ranting to strip meteorologists who don't agree with your phony junk science of their credentials is proof positive how desparate you and your junk science is. No matter what man does, man can never do the damage to the earth no matter how man tries. Your hysteria, and the so called global warming scientists mask your real intentions under the cover of science. All the global warming community wants to bring the "capitalist" America to its knees. You can never win at the ballot box, so you attack the American way of life. I find it rather interesting that Mr. Gore refuses to debate this issues, but runs for cover on the Weather Channel to join his junk science friends. Give us a break Heidi...get a life and get real. Mind your own business and how about finally telling the truth about the falseness of this global warming myth.
There is consensus among scientists that anthropogenic global warming is happening, caused by our unprecedented in human history rise in CO2 levels causing global warming. But you almost have to have been reading the foreign press to know the scientific consensus was there.
"If further global warming reaches [3.6 to 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit], we will likely see changes that make earth a different planet than the one we know," said NASA's James Hansen, lead author of the study. "The last time it was that warm was ... about 3 million years ago, when sea level was estimated to have been about [80 feet] higher than today."
My tip is that this Weather Channel post suggests that this was an organised attack of paid spamming by a Netvocateslike propoganda company is:

Your right. This issue isn't going away. Why didn't your site accept the hundreds of comments submitted today. It stopped at 306 out of 700+submitted. Most of which were today
The War On Science operative Marc Marono may have started at CNS by merely Swiftboating some Demcrat presidential candidate, and a war veteran critic of policy.
But now he truly has bigger fish to fry.

The War On Science could well make Earth a different planet than the one we know.
