Like our Taswegans? They will be running the country from down there soon, independant by independant, green by green, bob by bob.

Son of Gloin,

Don't get me started on the secret links between the Swedes and the Greens !

People can scoff, but look what they tried to do to Assange. And it's well-known that if you play an Abba record backwards, it sounds exactly the same ! That has to mean something damaging to our culture. After all, they even tried to infiltrate MacNamara's Band ! B*stards !

And what's with 'grassy knoll' ? 'Knoll' - isn't that Swedish ?

You've been warned.

cj .. so you don't like greenies being called, quite rightly, commies or even the lesser socialist?

yet you find it acceptable to flame skeptics with "deniers" whenever possible

BTW - 'Climategate', i.e. the AGW denialist conspiracy theory so enthusiastically taken up by you and your fellow travellers, and so completely debunked by subsequent investigations.

We don't need to do anything here, the world took it up and it destroyed Copenhagen, all on it's own - because people are always suspicious of others who want to control them.

Your "conspiracy" is all in your own mind, some emails and data were released into the wild .. there was no conspiracy .. has anyone been charged yet? Who released the emails, there is suspicion it was an inside job .. more conspiracy! Who are the conspirators, how many are there? How do they organize?

haha

No, not a conspiracy, just skeptical people .. unorganized.

Not at all like you watermelons eh .. why you even try to get control of government!

rpg, you seem to have the wrong end of the stick as usual.

'Climategate' was the name given by the media to the alleged conspiracy among climate scientists that was supposedly revealed by the release on the Internet of thousands of emails from the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit in the lead-up to the Copenhagen Summit.

Although subsequent inquiries proved that there was no such conspiracy, intransigent AGW denialists like you persist in claiming there was. I use the term 'denialist' because it's more accurate than the neutral term 'skeptic', since you continue to deny the very high probability of AGW in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Do try and get your facts straight. This might help:

Come on CJ, you're smarter than that.

You can see just as well as I can, what a pile of rubbish the goings on at the CRU & the IPCC, & elsewhere have been. You do yourself, & your mates a disservice in pretending you can't.

It is now time to come out from behind the camouflage, & start talking facts, not fabrications. You & your mates, Will get a lot further if you talk sense, & try to get people on side with the truth, & your real goals, rather than this concocted scare campaign, to which increasingly large numbers have awakened.

If you can't openly discuss your objectives, & your reasons, with the public, your cause is totally illegitimate

"I use the term 'watermelon' because it's more accurate than the neutral term 'Green', since you continue to spout this absurd rubbish."

there .. fixed cj

In a separate post, someone very kindly provided links to the analysis of what happened at the so called investigations into the CRU scandal. I don't bother linking to it, find it yourself if you really are open minded, but I know you're not.

CRU a conspiracy of skeptics, just the opposite, a conspiracy of academics who broke the law in the FOI case, but were beyond the limitation statue to be charged .. they still broke the law, and that's no conspiracy, it's fact admitted by the investigations .. which by the way, did not cover the science ... why not?

We skeptics continue to oppose the taxing of everyone for the socialist goals of the watermelons

I'm not skeptical about man made climate change, I am skeptical that it's CO2 that is the culprit and that giving money to watermelons to redistribute will have any effect except to inflate their egos.
