Spinning ClimateGate At Grist

   It is easy to spin something when you don't even address it. Over at Grist, they have a story up doing what all lefty nutters do...blame Fox News.
 
   All of us "skeptics" just want people to read the emails...that is all. We ae not making it up, or embelishing it. The emails clearly state the deception!!!  If you can read, you can see it.
 
   But what is more funny is the stories he uses to make his point.
 
Evidently due to this email conspiracy, Arctic sea ice is at historically low levels, Australia is on fire, the northern United Kingdom is underwater, and the world’s glaciers are disappearing. Oh yeah, and it’s the hottest decade in history.
 
   If you click on his links, you can gleen some of this info for yourself. Let's address these quickly:
 
1) Historically low Arctic sea ice: It is clearly coming back up from previous years. Look at the year by year chart in his link. What does that mean? Is it coming back the other way? Who knows?
2) Australia on fire: Lightning cause fires sometimes. It has been hot there, but like so many other places around the world, they have seen some record cold this year as well. 
3)The rain has been intense in Ireland and Britain. In his link, other than it being claimed as a "historic event", there is no mention of global warming being the cause. Here is a link asking that very question. Guess there not sure there is a link between the two.
4)Glaciers are disappearing: They are receding, but some are growing; and guess what? They don't know why!
5)This one is easy; read the stolen emails and you willl see the deception of the recent climate data. It's written clearly for all to see. They fudged the data to hide the real temperatues because it didn't jive with the models, and they couldn't have that.
 
   Once again, I am not trying to prove global warming is a lie. What I am trying to do is combat the hype and get to the meat of the matter. The science of global warming should be theory, proven by testing. But instead it is treated as fact and can no longer be debated, even with all the evidence to the contrary.
 
   Now that these emails have surfaced, some serious questions are being asked, and once again, the MSM is not paying attention or are intentionally avoiding it. Either way, some of us just want all the evidence brough to bear.
