Do you think left gate-keeper news outlets and pundits waited too long to address the Climategate scandal?

Any way you want to put a spin on it, the statement "we can not account for the lack warming" is still damming. If you do not know were the heat content is going, how can you model it correctly. Why is he uming that this is due to poor observations? If the data does not fit the theory, he is saying that the data is wrong, not the theory. More proof that he is close minded and is only looking at evidence that proves global warming.
