The IPCC Lead Author
This is stupid. Do these charlatans really think that minority Senate staffers can’t read?
By the way, on Muller’s “conversion” from “skeptic” to “believer,” Judith Curry is unimpressed.

The darkness of collective punishment.
Leftists are completely tone deaf to this kind of thing, but as I wrote earlier, I think those four words sealed his fate this fall.

But GM is on life support.
I think this has the makings of a good Romney campaign ad.
