Absolutely; he's the junior assistant head misleader-in-chief; Satan's accountant. He is paid to mislead. cherry picking 2012 Global Warming Report Card Note: There are updates to this post at Really Sciency. Mr Goddard has posted a ‘ Global Warming report Card’ that lists no less than 19 metrics he believes contradict anthropogenic climate change. A massive Gish gallop in true denier style which Monckton would be proud off and which asserts that there is nothing wrong and that ‘Hansen, Mann and the rest of the hockey team are not being honest with us’. Which when read one must assume that Mr Goddard himself is honest and completely trustworthy. This is followed by a list of cherry picked charts and graphs as ‘evidence’. Who knew the annual mean temperature trend in Nuuk, Greenland actually decreased by about 0.1C from 1940? This has happened even while the whole Arctic region has undergone an overall warming trend twice the global average. Something our Mr Goddard must have been aware of to be able to cherry pick a place that bucked that trend. So what of this Gish gallop of 19 metrics? As well as cherry picking, some of them are just silly; Where has the science ever suggested a metric for measuring Climate Change would be the number of hurricane strikes that hit the US and only the US? And even one of Goddard's charts appears to be doctored. lazarus-on.blogspot.com

So it's finally come to this... either all federal, state, county, municipal, academic, and private record keepers from San Diego to Eureka, going back almost to the Gold Rush, are lying, or that dunce in the corner named Steven Goddard is. Who do you expect is being dishonest, everybody, or just the dunce?
