— Ace This one not hacked, but sent to a hostile party. Who promptly published it.
Andrew Revkin is so beloved by the CRU warmists they fondly call him "Andy" in their emails. He's also the guy who refused to publish these disgusting hacked emails on his... um, climate blog, which you'd think could at least print a few so that his readers would understand the hottest climate story in the world.
So he's on the team. Bought and paid for, but not bought and paid for; just owned, by personal choice.
But in a blog post, he mentioned Copenhagen prostitutes offering "green" conference-goers free sex (once again, the dime drops that maybe we're on the wrong team here: nothin' but fondue and sodomy over on that side), and also mentioned a bit of the ClimateGate controversy, including the "tribalism" some of the CRU crew stand accused of.
So: This guy is on the team. He'd basically offer Al Gore a free hand release himself, except that he doesn't want to be sweated on by a husky hick. But he mentioned ClimateGate.
And for that, he gets this blistering rebuke and threat from cultist professor Michael Schlesinger of the University of Illinois.
Andy:
Copenhagen prostitutes?
Climate prostitutes?
Shame on you for this gutter reportage. [Emphasis added.]
This is the second time this week I have written you thereon, the first about giving space in your blog to the Pielkes.
The vibe that I am getting from here, there and everywhere is that your reportage is very worrisome to most climate scientists.
Of course, your blog is your blog.
But, I sense that you are about to experience the 'Big Cutoff' from those of us who believe we can no longer trust you, me included. [Emphasis added.]
Copenhagen prostitutes?
Unbelievable and unacceptable.
What are you doing and why?
Michael
What is he doing? He's reporting facts. Professor Schlesinger ought to give it a try and see if it suits him.
"The Big Cutoff" refers, of course, to an end of the tips, free quotes, free background stuff, etc., that the climate-mongers have been offering Revkin. In other words, they're threatening to blacklist him from their rolodexes and no longer return his calls, leaving him a reporter without sources in the field he's supposed to be covering. (And doing a poor job of it even with those sources, note.)
Glad to see there's none of that "tribalism" among this claque! Good to put that particular false rumor to bed!
Meanwhile, this article at American Thinker by Marc Sheppard explains the "hide the decline" and the Medieval Warm Period and why thew warmists are so determined to kill it, and, well, lots of stuff. Another must-read piece.
The piece LauraW. linked earlier exposes a whole new area of shenanigans, too.
Update: Via Hot Air, Hmmmm...: Did Russian spies hack and leak the HARRY_READ_ME file to sabotage Copenhagen?
Note: I originally wrote the email was "leaked" but realize now that is inaccurate and misleading: Steven Hayward is on the circulation list, and published it on his blog, stating that he was doing so. This doesn't seem to be a "leak," as that implies a stealthy, anonymous revealer, so that word seems wrong.

I have loved golf all my life. It is not a sport. Certainly not as the Pros play it. Maybe when you have to carry your own clubs and schlep it over the entire course during a match in high school it can be termed an endurance sport.
But I think the fact that John Daly, Craig Stadler and yes Jack Nicklaus (who was a fatty as a young man) can rise to be top professionals pretty much destroys an idea that golf is a sport.
Golf is a game.....the greatest game ever invented.

The Russians simply provided a place to post them. The files were known for a month prior to them hitting the Russian site. The Russians would never have offered these to a British reporter first. They would just do what they did and get them out there and everywhere. Someone inside CRU compiled and leaked them. If it was a hack they would have known exactly how it happened already from logs.

In the Orange County register today (supposedly a "right wing" paper) they had a 3 page spread in the Sunday print edition main news section on Climate Change and not ONE SINGLE word on Climategate. There was an article titled "Christian Book Backs Climate Change". There was a list of what countries are doing to prepare for Copenhagen; Australia according to the OC Register "wants to slash emissions by 25%". No mention of the Liberal Party leadership failing on the issue and the new leader killing ETS early in the week. A great scary page of graphics.
I imagine the news team thinks they are being objective and following the science, but they just come off as clueless.

Indeed, and representative. One of the the great myths of liberalism is that liberals have great senses of humor. They don't. And they are utterly incapable of making fun of themselves or their beliefs.

You would have had to tease them as "SECRET OIL COMPANY EMAIL" for the MSM to be interested. Which is somewhat correct since the current email show Shell Oil participating with the Hockey team in propaganda.
Had this leak been from an oil company trying to derail the AGW research - front fucking page for a week.

What would it take to end the careers of some of these "scientists"?
I'm thinking rule 13 (or is it 12) would have some use here.
"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."
as well as: "Does the end justify the means?" is meaningless as it stands: the real and only question regarding the ethics of means and ends is, and always has been, "Does this particular end justify this particular means?"
Yeah Saul, your chickens are coming home for some loving.

I'm not surprised at this. Most newspapers have stuff like that in the can months ahead of time. With budgets the way they are they don't have a spare dime to redo anything. It was given a go ahead and a pup date and no one has looked at it since.

Once again I have been FUCKED by the web goddess, with his/her stupid "annoying" response obliterating my post.
WTF?????
It's obvious that ACE or someone running this site is bending the poorly-skilled webbuttperson over a fence rail every night and taking aim at (what must by now be) a well-worn anus --- how else to explain the Fourth World Quality of this website?
How else to explain the obvious passive-aggressiveness of the sex slave shtuppee than his/her retaliation for a chronically inflamed rectum?
When ACE is bleating about ad revenues, just remember: Better REVENUE GENERATING sites have been created in the cybercafes of Lagos, Nigeria.
They, at least, don't go out of their way to piss you off.
So the next time you write about dipping your balls, Ace, just remember: a lot of us out here hope you will immerse them in molten sodium.
En Fuego!!!!

This is like ... amazing. Going after reporters. Man, these guys are really full of themselves, and exceedingly desperate. I'm not sure how anyone can hide that. The vibe I'm getting is that Schlesinger is more worrisome to climate scientologists.
But, I sense that you are about to experience the 'Big Cutoff' from those of us who believe we can no longer trust you, me included. [Emphasis added.]

I followed the links to Roger Pielke's blog and comments on the Schlesinger email. Wow, they are all a bunch of leftards. Pielke's gripe is that the science is setteled but policy is not. So, the AGW are only getting sidetracked by defending the science. And he's one of the more reasonable ones.
It is scary that they think that scientists have the right to become our dictators. The fact that they want to destroy our economy to further third world nations is ridiculous. We are supposed to dip into our own pockets and hand it over to countries that are the antithesis of America. I suspect that if we do so, we are funding our own future destruction by terrorists.
The Green Turd went after Breitbart for calling a Hansen a traitor but he is exactly right.

One of this week's two frontpage stories: The Poor To Be Most Hurt If Nation's Refuse to Address Climate Change.
*sigh*
Not a word about Climategate, nor a hint of skepticism, just earnest assertions that we have to do something, now, or the poor are going to be hurt.
By climate change.
I love my church, but she is gullible. Naive and gullible, just like her Obama-voting members who love the idea of government-run healthcare just so long as abortions aren't covered (promise!).
Name any liberal foolishness outside of abortion, and the Catholic Church is desperate to run with it, muddy-headed, as though there is no need to think once someone says "social justice."

The newspaper promotions on environmentalism must have been a coordinated effort--the WSJ (WSJ!) devoted an entire section to this fraud, complete with a section on how AGW supporters can refute skeptics.
Bjorn Lomborg must have seen this coming--he penned an article about the snows of Kiliminjaro, and how they've been retreating...since 1890 at least. In the meantime, people who live in the vicinity of Kiliminjaro are contending with more immediate issues such as HIV.

Someone prominent needs to kill the meme that this was a hack -- it was a leak by a whistleblower.
No, no one who's prominent needs to engauge the left on their red herring. It's a distraction.
The debate isn't about how the emails became public.

"And now to Copenhagen where the climate change summit opens today. Our reporter on site has the story..."
-3 minutes-
"Now the Tiger Woods events."
NBC is on board with "hiding the decline".
Wouldn't the Russians love a global climate change bureaucracy? It's the perfect outlet to infiltrate to develop key streams of information in all the developing world. What else does Russia have but not an abundance of nuclear scientists looking for work?

If you want to dial my old dorm room at the U of I, call 217-332-1412. Ask for "Nude and Lubed Illini."
Maybe old Prof Walsh as the Atmos Sciences department could straighten Schlesinger out. I had Walsh for a meteorology class back in 1990--he was a cool, very intelligent guy, and a former AF airman.

Yeah. My morning read nearly made me throw up. I threw the section at my husband and said "here's your daily dose of propaganda- courtesy of the WSJ".
I was disgusted. Only the editorial page and Henninger, Stevens and Strassel are shedding any light on the issue. And thank God for that, I guess. They have indeed covered it with the proper outrage, imo. And then, this. Gah!
