Yes, folks, global warming denialism is going away. Here's one more example:
I'd like to know more specifically what Joe himself thinks about all this. This segment looks like a segue, and not the kind you drive around on.

Why are there people who seem hell-bent on denying anthropogenic global warming?; What are the deniers trying to achieve?; Why do they post comments on your article that totally defy not only science, but also common sense?
These are not easy questions to answer accurately. But its…
It has been said that home schooling is a bit suspicious because it is possible for people to keep their kids home to abuse them. This is probably very very rare, but yes, it is possible and there are examples of it. however, home schoolers often (at least the most vocal amongst them) insist…
Four of the six government members on a committee examining geosequestration put out a dissent denying the existence of anthropogenic global warming. I was going to write a post on what they got wrong, but I realised that since they rely on Bob Carter so much, I'd already done it. John Quiggin…
Are there more tornadoes because of global warming? Are they stronger? Do they occur more frequently outside of the usual tornado season, or are they more common in areas that formerly had few tornadoes?
There are problems with all of these questions, and the main problem is the fact that the…
James Hansen told Congress in 1988 that Climate Change was here and already affecting us. During that time nothing has been done except to try and educate the people that a warming planet is real and poses serious challenges. Friedman, nearly thirty years has been partially educated. He noted that the most of the effects of climate change will impact those who are not yet born. As is typical of Friedman, he possesses the old news truth. Climate scientists have been surprised constantly with the speed that changes are taking place. Friedman seems to think we have time to have a civil discourse on moronic shows like Morning whatever. The window of meaningful opportunity is nearly closed. By the way is there no bandwagon Friedman will not jump on long after the painfully obvious has become more painfully obvious.
When was Thomas Friedman ever a "denier"? His book, Hot Flat and Crowded was published in 2008. I can't find anything using Google to suggest that Friedman ever doubted the theory. As far as I can find he's been a pretty rabid warming propagandist the whole time. If you think his long term hysteria is any indication of some trend in public opinion you're fooling yourself. And, only a fool would listen to Thomas Friedman about any subject anyway.
He is not a denier of global warming science and never has been as far as I know.
