Again xoxoxoBruce uses logic that also gave credence to Lindzen – a political hack masking as a scientist.
Al Bore would easy fit that description. As for Lindzen, he is another victim of the Enviromentalist Taliban.

Science does not work by consensus. It is based on evidence. Those scientists who try to intimidate other scientists show such little respect for the norms of science that it is hard to take their opinions as seriously as they probably merit. Heavy-handed attempts to bludgeon dissident scientists into submission does not advance the cause of science, even if (as seems more likely than not to me) the main cause of global warming. And, of course, even if much of the orthodox view of global warming eventually turns out to be correct, those doing the bludgeoning are probably correct about the cure for global warming may be worse than the disease.
