An economist, a lawyer and a professor of marketing walk into a room.

They testify as “expert witnesses” for Republicans in last week’s Congressional hearing on climate science.

If this is not funny enough for you, read on. because it gets even funnier.

One of the two actual scientists the Republicans invited to testify, a Professor Muller whose climate-skeptic credentials are so strong as to prompt Anthony Watts (runs a prominent climate denialist Web site), declare himself “prepared to accept whatever result they produce, even if it proves my premise wrong”, actually went off script and reported that his group’s preliminary results find a global warming trend “very similar to that reported by the prior groups.”

Of course Mr Watts did not feel he should be held responsible for his previous pledge ;)

Funny indeed.
