Did you just glance at the excerpts from the top that cite examples of the BAD reporting that goes on and not the actual scientists reports? This alone tells me you didn't even read the article.

Yeah, that's not a serious concern. No one denies that water vapor plays a huge role in climatic temperature, but anyone's who's taken an introductory climate course should be able to tell you the difference between a forcing and a feedback.

I know right, only 50 some odd scientists wrote the IPCC SPM. SPM being the operative phrase. You know what that stands for? Summary for Policy Makers. In other words 50 some odds scientists wrote a summary of the rest of the report. Shocking.

A modicum of intellectual rigor goes a long way.

edit: I was going to rip on #43 for being generally ignorant because I occasionally browse through his blog and am thus fairly familiar with his arguments, but I'm reconsidering my entire position in this debate. I'm reconsidering because #3 up there laid out a brilliant argument against global warming on his own blog:

Do you honestly believe God would allow humans to destroy the earth He created? Of course, if you don't believe in God and creationism then I can see why you would easily buy into the whole global warming fanfare. I think in many ways that's what this movement is ultimately out to do - rid the mere mention of God in any context. What these environmentalists are actually saying is "we know more than God - we're bigger than God - God is just a fantasy - science is real...He isn't...listen to US!" I have a huge problem with that.
