Howler of the day – pure comedy gold from Greg Laden

Note to Greg, Tom Nelson found it for me, no crystal ball or Oz powers needed.

Climate Change Denialism – Greg Laden’s Blog

Anthony Watts has responded on his blog but if I put a link to it he will discover that I’ve written about him and instruct his winged monkeys to fill my comment section with hate.

Translation from Gregese into English: “Anthony Watts has responded on his blog but if I put a link to it people will discover that lies were written about him and people will realise I’m full of hate.”
In all sincerity though, the cowardice of these people is breathtaking. Mann won’t debate Spencer; Hayhoe declares [she] won’t debate a sceptic unless she has a gang of 48 other non-sceptics backing her up; Laden is afraid to link to your rebuttal of the Abrams hate piece.

Please. I’m a minion, working towards a henchman promotion, not a winged monkey. :p

Notice he was asked about “skeptics” and replied “deniers”. This clearly indicates that he cannot tolerate any dissent from his precious faith. He has no skeptics because they are not of the faithful, and so must be shunned.

Damn, outsmarted again!

Dangit! I just check the rules, and apparently I don’t comment here enough to quality for winged monkey status!…. And I always wanted to be a winged monkey too! They were my favorite thing in the whole movie!!!

Darn I clicked on Laden’s site and then made an (even bigger) second mistake and read something to do with guns, I think I have to go for a walk just to calm down I rarely make really big mistakes in that short a period of time, later.

Like Clarence, still working on getting my wings. Nonetheless it is possible to show Greg Laden what the world would be like if no-one had given birth to AGW alarmism. Hint: Fewer windfarms and bureaucrats, generally richer, otherwise eerily the same.

The Auditor General from the Canadian province of British Columbia, pointed out that taxpayer’s money is being wasted on the Pacific “carbon trust”. The CBC seemed upset when they reported this yesterday as if how dare someone criticize. Much anger towards the Auditor General came from a UBC professor who’s company makes millions on this scam. The Auditor General is taking on a new job in Australia. He was forced out of his job for what he was hired to do. Sounds like the government and media don’t want the public to find out about this money making scam. I should start a trust and call it the Pacific Sunlight Trust.
Sorry no link, but I am sure this story will appear on this site.

Reblogged this on Climate Ponderings and commented:
HOWLERS!

Why won’t the warmists teach us how carbon dioxide traps heat in the air? I really would like to know.

This is really hilarious! I linked through to Laden’s rubbish (he’ll never be the master of a sweary blog) and probably improved his hit rate stats – he’s like a man with a hernia: needs the support.
Two things struck me immediately – alright, three things: He doesn’t get many comments; he doesn’t think we’re sceptics, but ‘science deniers’ (wtf are they?); and he says this about our how to engender debate:

“Why don’t I list “skeptics” sites on my blog roll? Because I think that the climate science deniers are doing a bad thing, spreading misinformation and lies, and also, behaving (in many cases) badly in other ways, such as threatening law suits or attempting to get criminal charges against scientists, etc. etc. It would be grossly irresponsible and highly unethical for me to put those sites on my blog roll.”

‘Unethical’??? How post-f*ckin’-Gleikian can you get?
But then, not to put a link to WUWT is so childish. Does he think that his readers are incapable of find WUWT for themselves??

Anthony,
I thought you’d like to know… Not only are you a AGW skeptic, now “Climate Denier” but Greg Laden called you a “science denier”.
Just thought you’d like to know.
Maybe next you’ll graduate to baby killer.

I wish the warmhysterics would teach us how to change the climate, so we could have hot sunny days in Toronto in February instead of having to go to Florida.

WUWT gives me wings!

Better a Trunk Monkey than a winged monkey….

March 28, 2013 10:47 am

Well, I was able to get through one or two comment posts .. .then ZAP! … not letting me post anything more. And believe me, I was very kind. I used no harsh or inappropriate language, I did not call anyone a name, nor did I even single anyone out except Greg. I simply posed some serious questions about the topic at hand. I guess Greg doesn’t like to be questioned. Oh, but he was able to call all of you “liars” and guilty of spreading “misinformation”. Greg seems like just another in a long line of Joe Romm wannabe’s.

Since I was a winged monkey in an elementary school play “Wizard of Oz”, can I get official status here! LOL
When they resort to name calling, you’ve won.

Maybe I haven’t drunk enough Red-bull to get my wings yet. Is there a ceremony if I get promoted from plain monkey?

I think it’s funny that all the comments on the Greg Laden blog post linked to in the article except for a couple of replies by Greg Laden are from skeptics.

” It’s a bully tactic; establishing rules that don’t really exist then whinging when your victim does not obey said rules. That’s just a guess, though.” What a thin skinned bully. I wonder if he ever looks in the mirror?
