LOL this is hilarious. If you ever needed proof that liberals are climate-religious, this is it.

This chick sets out to get to the bottom of the climategate highlite, "hide the decline", which, as you may know from our hundreds of threads on the subject, refers to decline in tree ring density since the 1960s forward, a bit of a departure from what scientists expected the tree rings density to trend. The data was so bad at correlating with known temperatures that it threatened to undermine the use of tree ring density to derive past temps. It was removed from the data and cited as the divergence problem, a term that was used before the climategate. The data was replaced with real temps that created the graph that Jaeah refers to as not showing a decline.

This is funny if you understand. But I'm afraid the warmers will likely fail to grasp what the issue is and buy Jaeah's awesome analysis.
 
I hate to rub their stupid noses in it, but we told them they were being suckered in by Gore and the liberal lemmings, 10 years ago....
Now, they just hide for the most part but we still have some diehards that will still defend the bogus data and can't admit we were right and they were wrong....
 
Where are the warmers these days? I guess the fact the McIntrye has now been accepted over a dozen times in scientific journals, they can no longer claim the peer reviewed card in their constant appeals to authority
