Fifty years ago they were predicting a meltdown, and forty years ago they were predicting an ice age.

A President that has actually been successful at accomplishing what he set out to do. How many Presidents can boast such a thing?

Professionals, not morons. Long-term forecasters remain in the job as long as they look at the near-term past and.arbitrarily extend it into the future. I’ll post a link to a post of mine when I find it, a candid confession by one of “them”…

…where a professional climatologist explains how to appear right always and without even much of an effort
There is actually a certain genius to it –
A paper that points out that models are not very good at modelling anything happening in the present but are good at predicting the future… Presumably they discuss how they are able to travel into the future and support this claim towards the end of the paper. Can’t wait to read it. 🙂

Morons, not real professionals (I have my own standards for what a professional should know, and do, and pretending knowledge is not part of it). But they are morons because they gave away their reasoning ability to false dogmas — a false consensus in a false science. They are self-made morons, which makes them willful morons, and evil on that account.
Morons? Professionals? Sounds like a false dichotomy to me. All indications are that they are both, Professional Morons. The more idiocy they spout, the more they get in grants.
