The collusion runs deep…

The whistleblower who exposed this fraud deserves a medal. Listen:

MSM TV is giving it some coverage, surprisingly even-handed so far. Russia Today, Australian Lateline, Fox… Would be interesting to see Tim Ball on one of these shows…

“Collusion” nice safe legal construct for folks who still can’t bring themselves to call a high level conspiracy a conspiracy We’ll call it ‘climategate” after the original ‘gate’ – a criminal conspiracy hatched in the highest offices of government which the media refused to call a government conspiracy – It was ‘collusion’ instead

We have evidence that climate change crisis science was a contrived hoax, perpetrated at the highest levels of the academic/scientific community. Along with the hoax was a criminal conspiracy to defame and damage dissenting scientists. A tip of the hat to this digital “deepthroat’ who tipped us off.

Now ask yourself what or WHO could motivate these high level scientists into a criminal conspiracy to perpetrate a massive global hoax? Obviously someone or some group with lots of money to buy the science they need to promote their crisis agenda and enough political and media power to crush opposition and dissent. The ‘collusion” goes beyond these corrupt quacks.

Personally I hope these climate hoaxers are jailed like the criminal scum they are – and I like to remind people we have our own climate doom hoaxer-hysteric who has openly called for those who dissented to the now proven fraudulent climate crisis science, to be arrested and incarcerated. We haven’t heard a buzz from Dr. Fruit Fly on this CRU scandal have we? Wonder why?

What’s going on with the Hadley CRU is criminal, pure and simple and needs to be investigated by the relevant law enforcement agencies. They have cooked the data, manipulated the peer review process and engaged in scientific fraud, all at taxpayers expense. The data flowing from the other CRU’s is probably just as corrupted because the same group of scientists are in charge of those units as well.
I’ve spent the last 29 years as a research assistant in Quaternary (Ice Age) Paleontology and Paleo Climatology. I’m fully versed on the correct scientific methodology of conducting research and submitting that research for objective peer review. I say without reservation or bias that what the researchers at the Hadley CRU have done is criminal fraud. It can’t be viewed objectively as anything else.
I find it ironic that as we celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin and the scientific method, these so-called scientists are using methods best left to con artists and shady politicians and have succeeded only in damaging the scientific community as a whole.
I feel like puking.

It is sickening, because like you said, the whole mess damages the credibility of the entire scientific community. It’s hard now to listen to any so-called scientific findings on anything without viewing it with a great deal of cynicism. And that’s the real shame — there are a lot of great scientific minds out there who will be looked down upon simply because of the fraudulent practices of a handful of quacks with an agenda.

Commenter Bill, on this post, provides some interesting links for reading: So can we have out old lightbulbs back now?

I say we need to start firing off letters to our politicians, to the IPCC, and others in the scientific community. It helps to have criticism from people who work as researches and recognize when the scientific method has not been followed.
