The discussion was about those credentialed scientists who were on the pro-AGW side but who have jumped ship. You challenged that and demanded names. I furnished them.
No, Foxfyre... YOUR discussion is about those scientists... who, by the way, Parrot just called you on. I don't give a flying fart about them, because of the list I keep showing YOU and which YOU keep refusing to comment on. Are you actually going to tell me that a dozen converted scientists who never actually converted are more significant or correct than the combined American scientific community currently studying the issue?

Who's Who on Inhofe's List of 400 Global Warming Deniers --"Sen. James M. Inhofe's list of 400+ supposedly prominent climate scientists who doubt global warming is full of names that should raise big question marks, including economists and other social scientists, mathematicians, TV weathermen, retired scientists and amateurs, as well as scientists who have received support for their work from fossil fuel industries.

* 44 TV Weathermen Among Global Warming Deniers
* 70 of Inhofe's Global Warming Deniers Have No Climate Science Background
* 20 of Inhofe's Global Warming Deniers Are Economists
* 84 of Inhofe's Global Warming Deniers Have Taken Industry Money"

You seem to think that politicians and pundits carry the same weight of credibility as does a PhD environmental scientist on the issue of global warming.
I think it's significant that such highly regarded conservative leaders have changed their opinion on the matter. Otherwise, you're statement is completely idiotic because, with every post, I have repeatedly sourced the combined weight of American scientific research on Global Warming.

And yes, they DO know more than your PhD scientist. SO ONCE AGAIN...

Then check out the credentials of those I listed as scientists who once supported AGW but who now report that the science to support it simply does not hold up.
I already have. So friggin' what... compare them to the credentials I have listed above. There simply IS no comparison.

I don't suffer from insanity... I thoroughly enjoy it
