Climategate a right-wing conspiracy?Posted By jess tauber |
Given some of the sneaky, underhanded things that the misnamed 'right' have done in the past few years, if not decades to get their un-self-examined way (from the war in Iraq to the wedge strategy of the ID, er hidden creationist movement), it occurs to me that the people at the center of this current tempest in a teapot may actually have been doing the bidding of anti-GW forces, either voluntarily (as party to or dupes of conspiracy) or under duress (blackmail being a time-tested tactic). The stakes are high enough, and around for long enough, for there to have been plenty of time to put all this together and try to make it look legitimate.
We've seen things like this set up by government agencies and business interests for a long time. Large swaths of the public often fall for it.
I hope you've covered all your tracks, because once the shock wears off there will be blood. And if its eventually proved the whole thing was a put-up job, what will you do then- start murdering climate scientists?
