    For the warmists, it never really was about the CO2. Now we have a warmist book review, and it actually is not about the book.

  2. The point of Eilpern’s review is that the “science is settled, skeptics are corrupt, and the media shouldn’t give fair balance to corrupt skeptics” – that latter point nicely noted in her reference to Max Boykoff. That’s the same guy involved in circular references with anti-skeptic book author Ross Gelbspan, as I detailed in my 2011 article, ” ‘Media Too Fair to Climate Skeptics’, say reporters who’ve been unfair to skeptics” http://www.globalwarming.org/2011/06/02/media-too-fair-to-climate-skeptics-say-reporters-whove-been-unfair-to-skeptics/

    It’s all these people have, a one-trick pony mantra designed to prompt the public to ignore skeptics that was very likely consolidated by Gelbspan around 1995-6. As long as the general public continues to accept Eilperin’s and so many others’ regurgitation of this mantra without questioning it, the issue is not won.
