I seem to recall a line from the Presidential campaign last year... Something to the effect of 'restoring science to it's rightful place.'
This must be what they meant, right?
What has been revealed here, along with the manufactured data and side-by-side with the destruction of original data, is that scientists are as human as any other person. Meaning, that scientists are subject to the same political and financial influences that any other person is. This is why it is so utterly and critically important that science is based upon actual scientific fact and not upon 'consensus.'
Definition time:
scientific fact - n: any observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and accepted as true; any scientific observation that has not been refuted
consensus - n: 1. majority of opinion. 2. general agreement or concord; harmony.
As I'm sure all of you have been reading my blog since the beginning of time or whenever I started blogging, there is no need for me to point out that I have been blogging about AGW for quite a while. None-the-less... Pay particular attention to the quote from Professor Ian Plimer in that last post. For you with little time or patience on your hands, here is the quote:
"I'm a natural scientist. I'm out there every day, buried up to my neck in sh**, collecting raw data. And that’s why I’m so sceptical of these models, which have nothing to do with science or empiricism but are about torturing the data till it finally confesses. None of them predicted this current period we’re in of global cooling. There is no problem with global warming. It stopped in 1998. The last two years of global cooling have erased nearly 30 years of temperature increase."
In the case of Climategate and until otherwise proven all global warming 'science,' 'torturing the data' would mean replacing data that does not support your theory with data that does, and then destroying the original data.
Most damning, however, has to be the fact that when confronted with the fact that the books had been cooked and these scientists had engaged in egregious behavior, other climatologists and AGW supporters failed to admit that they'd been caught in this circumstance and agreeing to dismiss the data from the University of East Anglia. Instead they are circling the wagons around the massive failure and continuing with outright denial and name calling.
UPDATE As Paul points out in the commments section, the IPCC wading deep in a cesspool of lies and fakery, says they stand firm next to the evidence

Uh, CL, you are certainly NOT following the United Nations statements, huh? Remember, the UN is the Boss of the World.

If by boss of the world you mean corrupt, anti-semitic, America haters, then you'd be correct.
The Nazis rewrote math, science, etc., to fit their ideology. So why should we be surprised that their ideological brothers in marxism, are taking a page from the Nazis, as it regards the fraud of AGW?
The surprising thing is, so many alleged Americans have signed onto this marxist ideology so willingly and sleazily.
And their "messiah", their "polar redeemer" -- Barry Hussein Soetero..mmm mmm mmm..will go to Dopenhagen, bless the masses at the crime-ate CON-ference, and pronounce that "the last, best chance" to perpetuate the biggest fraud in human history, is well and good.
AND THEN, he'll go onto Oslo and get a Noballs for having done nothing, so he can come home and win an Oscar for having watched a movie, a Grammy for having listened to some marxist paean of praise, and a Tony for having overhauled 'Chellezilla and taken her to a play.
Shut down the interblogs, Skunks penned 'Chellezilla, there shall never be anything better than that.
You guys heard that PeeBo already won the BCS Championship right? True story. Apparently he's also in the running for an induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame because he used to love to watch the Sox play at 'Cominsky Field.'
