Global Warming Scam: Scientific Data in “Hockey Stick” Graph Bogus, Uh, ‘Fudged’ (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on November 28, 2009
Scientific data used to create the 'hockey stick' graph (top) were 'fudged' to create the false illusion of global warming increasing - the bottom graph shows actual European climate change over the past 1,000 years
Last month, I went to the world premier of the outstanding documentary Not Evil Just Wrong. Irish filmmakers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney exposed and explained the junk science used in Al Gore’s global-warming-fraud film An Inconvenient Truth. The bogus data used in the so-called “hockey stick” graph was a major focal point in the documentary.
Looks like McAleer’s and McElhinney’s research on the manipulated hockey stick data was way ahead of the global warming scandal now unfolding.
From Gateway Pundit: Death Knell to Global Warming– Renowned Statistician & Software Engineer Says Hockey Stick Data Was “Fudged”:
This May Be the Nail in the Coffin to Global Warming Junk Science—
Renowned statistician and software engineer Eric S. Raymond (ESR) says the global warming “hockey stick” graph data was “hard-coded” or purposefully “fudged.”Dr. Michael Mann, who co-authored the famous graph of temperature trends dubbed the “hockey stick graph,” was implicated in Climategate this week. Mann’s controversial work has been challenged in the past.
I know that for some people, discussion of scientific data and hockey stick graphs is pure agony, total Snoozeville. But this scientist in the next video makes it fairly easy for even the most bubble-headed liberal arts majors to understand what the global warming zealots did to support their lies about global warming.

FOX News: Stuart Varney Interviews on Climategate, Rips Global Warming Advocate about 1000’s of Emails | November 2009
From In Flanders Field, Climategate: Scientists forged Climate Research to make up the Global Warming Hoax (Paul Vreymans):
Hundreds of highly compromising emails and documents have been leaked online from the Climatic Research Unit University of East Anglia. The leak calls into question scientific methods and the results of several public climate research institutes. The CRU is one of the world’s leading research centers on climate change and the top source of temperature data worldwide. It played a key role in the IPCC’s fourth Assessment Report, which is the scientific base of policy negotiations at the Copenhagen Climate Conference next month. The IPCC fourth Assessment Report provides support for policy to mitigate global warming and for a further implementation of the Kyoto Protocol. Proposals for a new Copenhagen Climate Treaty including new regulations and the much disputed Global Emissions Trading scheme costing taxpayers trillions of dollars worldwide were based on the IPCC’s claimed research results.
The site then references a number of the incriminating emails, including this one about the hockey stick graph:
An anonymous source says that robustness problems with the Hockey Stick are known to anyone who understands his methodology. The source says that there will be a lot of noise over McIntyre’s 2003 paper and that knowing Mann’s very thin skin he will react strongly, unless he has learned from the past.
From Rush Limbaugh, radio broadcast November 25, 2009:
“You people who call yourselves scientists, if you don’t conduct your own investigation and hold public hearings on this whole global warming hoax, then you have given up your profession. This scandal is important on so many levels.”
From Michelle Malkin: Science czar John Holdren and ClimateGate: Perfect together
Ah, science czar John Holdren.
He’s been hyping climate change catastrophe since the 1970s, has been a master of stonewalling critics of his population control zealotry, and knows how to hide behind friendly water-carriers in the media.
So, you won’t be surprised to learn he is smack dab in the middle of the exploding ClimateGate scandal.
Dr. Tim Ball and Judi McLeod at Canadian Free Press shine the light…
From Canada Free Press, Obama’s Science Czar John Holdren involved in unwinding “Climategate” scandal:
Lift up a rock and another snake comes slithering out from the ongoing University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit (CRU) scandal, now riding as “Climategate”.
Obama Science Czar John Holdren is directly involved in CRU’s unfolding Climategate scandal. In fact, according to files released by a CEU hacker or whistleblower, Holdren is involved in what Canada Free Press (CFP) columnist Canadian climatologist Dr. Tim Ball terms “a truculent and nasty manner that provides a brief demonstration of his lack of understanding, commitment on faith and willingness to ridicule and bully people”.
“The files contain so much material that it is going to take some time to put it all in context,” says Ball. “However, enough is already known to underscore their explosive nature. It is already clear the entire claims and positions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are based on falsified manipulated material and is therefore completely compromised.

From Atlantic Free Press: Letter to a ‘co-conspiracy theorist’: Reflections on Modernity, Climategate, Pandemic, Peer Review, and Science in the Service of Empire:
…All are empire’s own multifaceted instruments of public relations, as well as its “approved science”, and its “approved dissent”. The political abuse of science to serve hegemonic agendas is a monumental scam, and Dr. Ball’s following terse expression is very perceptive:
“… [in the debate about the hockey-stick] these people are all publishing together, and they all peer-reviewing each other’s literature. So there is a classic example of [incestuous self-reinforcement] … why are they pushing the peer-review issue so big, why are they saying well, you haven’t published peer-review … and now of course we realize is because they have control over their own process. That’s clearly exposed in these emails. On a global scale it is frightening…. they control the IPCC. They manipulated that … The IPCC has become the basis in all governments for the Kyoto Protocol, the Coopenhagen Accord, and so on!” Minute 1:20, Dr. Tim Ball, Op. cit.
Anecdotally, I will recall for you some interesting personal experiences of the abuse of peer review by individuals. In the late 1980s when I worked as a development engineer in a computer company, my new office-mate, a recent Ph.D. from a very reputed top school in the United States and only 25 years of age (he celebrated his 25th birthday after his first day at work), had published almost 20 or so papers on the operating system he had worked on for his Ph.D. thesis. In any case it was a large number of papers, I may be forgetting the precise number. So, one day, having nothing better to do, I read all his published papers that were listed on his imposing resume – there was no web at the time, and only hardcopy of these papers existed which he fortunately had in the office. I also read his Ph.D. thesis. And I was very puzzled. 90% of the content in the refereed and conference papers was identical. To my mind, the differences didn’t warrant new papers, only perhaps separate sections, and at most 2 or 3 papers. So I asked him about it. He candidly told me that this is how the game is played, and that those who didn’t play it, paid the price. This scholarship inflation is indeed rewarded with academic respectability, not just in academe, but in corporate research as well. A few years later, another graduate student in computer science developed a fancy piece of software to automatically synthesize an entirely gibberish but plausible sounding paper in context by scanning words and sentences in already published papers, and submitted his genius to one or more peer-reviewed journals.

About the author
Poor Al Gore.
We can only wonder where he hears the news that he is a fraud, a charlatan, a liar, and a propagandist.
Will it be on his yacht, his Gulfstream, or in his home that burns the energy in one month that the normal American home uses in one year?
Poor Al Gore.
First he was defeated in the presidential election, got fat, grew a beard, found a new project to entertain himself with while potentially gleaning millions from the American taxpayer. Hey, life is sweet !
Now, that effort has been exposed as a hoax.
Poor Al Gore.
As an elitist, and an arrogant politician, he will possibly blame the FOX News Channel and the Conservative Bloggers for undermining his attempts to socialize America.
Let’s all watch and see if ALGORE gets fat again after this defeat.
Oh Vicki,….you are a BAD GIRL !!!
ILIWAPCT ! HAHA.
There’s far more evidence to suggest that pot smoking causes adult onset psychosis, as demonstrated by Al Gore’s delusional poetry, than there is proof that global warming even exists. It takes an IQ greater than one’s shoe size to pen something comparable to poetry, yet in addition to his substantial carbon footprint, Al Gore stands to net billions of US dollars for his global warming scam, upon none of which will he pay taxes.
In 1971, I first encountered the GLOBAL WARMING CULT. Terry McAuliffe was pushing the fledgling global flooding ideology out of a cleverly named unisex-clothing shop called Hang-Ups, in a converted African American Church, acquired under false pretenses and wittily christened THE ARK, on South Patrick Street, in Alexandria, Virginia. THE ARK was widely believed poised to eclipse New York’s already famous Fillmore East, but folded a short time later due to corrupt business practices.
Although persuasive, the global flooding argument didn’t ring true. I knew that NASA, the military and government agencies did extensive climate research, and said as much. If global warming could melt the polar ice caps and thus cause global flooding by 1976, the alarm should come from the aforementioned sources. Perhaps not coincidentally, by 1976 the Earth’s fossil fuel deposits would also be depleted. It was a grim scenario. Terry McAuliffe, who probably named THE ARK himself, took me aside and explained, when it came to global warming; you couldn’t trust the government.
As we know, 1976 came and went without a global catastrophe. I still had that $45-dollar pair of striped slacks just like Hillary’s. I don’t know which was worse. I never regretted being booted from the cabal (I was hardly ever in), and never expected to run into Terry or his disciples again, especially decades later in sunny California. Yet there they were on the Central Coast, whistling the same old tune with some major new innovations. They applied the global warming hysteria to higher education. Like global warming itself, education now became a massive fraud scheme designed to enrich the GLOBAL WARMING CULT. By 1995, The Brethren Of The Coast had grown exponentially. There would be much more to manmade global warming than mere water spotting: http://theseedsof9-11.com

If you really did find a working formula that made you, say $1,000 a week online on average and it kept producing income no matter what, would you want to sell that idea to a bunch of noobs for $47 a pop and expect to retire on the proceeds? No way, man! It does not compute. It does not add up. And it does not make any sense to do that. I certainly don’t go shouting from the rooftops how I make my money online. Hell, I don’t want the competition taking a slice of my pie and neither would anyone who really does make good cash online.
