Conspiracy theorising Lamar Smith can't hack change Sou | 4:04 PM
I see that Lamar Smith hasn't been able to find any evidence for his conspiracy theory yet, so he's asked NOAA for more emails. He complained that he "only" got 301 pages of emails. He figured the search terms were "unnecessarily narrow". If you want to get a feel for Lamar's conspiracy theory that climate change is a Presidential hoax, he now wants NOAA to send him all emails containing any of the following words:
- Karl
- buoy
- ship
- Night Marine Air Temperature
- temperature
- climate
- change
- Paris
- U.N.
- United Nations
- clean power plan
- regulations
- Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- President
- Obama
- White House
- Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ)
He gave them seven whole days. In his next request, he'll no doubt separate words white from house, united from nations, clean from power and plan, Council from quality, and maybe boy as well as buoy, etc. He might also widen temperature to temp, which would allow him to get any emails relating to temporary whatever. I sincerely hope that he gets sent all emails that include stuff like:
- "there's been a change to my mobile phone number"
- "can you change the staff meeting to 2:00 pm"
- "Lamar Smith is spelt with an "i" not a "y". Change all versions of "Smyth" to "Smith""
- "please ship the staplers to our Seattle office"
If he does, then he'll probably spend years trying to work out the coded messages in the above.
This could go on forever. Will Lamar Smith call for NOAA's budget to be expanded to cover the cost of his private army of email searchers? As Gavin Schmidt tweeted: Nobody makes them like the Republican Party in the USA. Nutty as a fruit cake.

From the Congressman's letter:
"It seems unlikely that documents and communications would be so scarce, considering NOAA officials understood that the Karl study, "is going to be hugely controversial'."
That is, the lack of people talking about the conspiracy is proof that the conspiracy is being hidden. |
