CIRCLE THE WAGONS, GLOBAL WARMERS

The Washington Post’s global warming apologist strikes out again.

The purloined e-mail correspondence published by skeptics last week -- portraying some leading climate researchers as petty, vindictive and tremendously eager to make their data fit accepted theories -- does not prove that global warming is a fraud. ... [T]ell the polar ice caps that they're free to stop melting.
Eugene Robinson still has trouble differentiating between weather and climate.

It's warmer now than it was 100 years ago.
Um, given what we now know about the data, are your sure?

At issue is the long-term trend, and one would expect anomalous blips from time to time.
It doesn’t seem to occur to Mr. Robinson that over a period of several thousands of years, the famous “hockey stick” might be the “anomalous blip”.

[W]e know carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, and we know the planet is hotter than it was a century ago.
Know? Or believe? Sorry, Eugene, we know the data is corrupt; beyond that, ... we only believe.
