Environmentalist Peter Sinclair’s new video is about the most absurdly overblown phony scandal in a year overflowing with phony right wing scandals, drearily dubbed “Climategate” by right wing blogs and Fox News, in hopes that it will turn out to be a death blow to global warming.

It’s not a death blow. It’s not even a stubbed toe. It’s a big nothing, a yawning chasm of foolishness filled with idiocy and hot air. The screaming from every right wing blog over this nonsense would actually be funny, if it weren’t so utterly, shamefully pathetic.

Sinclair puts some of the emails most distorted by the deniers into their proper context, and shows the incredibly dishonest tactics they’re using to continue trying to pump up this non-story, by fooling the gullible.

 Frank says:

I was writing all kinds of positive and negative canons and weird inverted this and retrograde that and getting as spaced-out mathematically as I could and I was going "Wait a minute (laughs), who cares about that stuff?" I had always liked rhythm and blues so here I was stuck between the slide rule and the gut bucket somewhere and I decided that I would opt for a third road someplace in between. -- From an 1972 interview to Martin Perlich.
