The Daily Caller's Michael Bastasch has a new piece on Judith Curry's April 15 testimony before the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology. According to Bastasch, Curry "completely dismantled criticisms from a Democratic congressman that her testimony was full of errors when it came to the seriousness of global warming."
The congressman, Rep. Don Beyer, a Virginia Democrat, apparently listed off the errors in Curry's testimony saying, "[the testimony is] in almost total conflict with anything I've read over the last 15 years."
So how did Curry "completely dismantle" Beyer's criticisms? With a list of long-debunked denier talking points, including: the climate is always changing, we don't know what's ahead, the climate's been warming since the 1700s so it can't all be blamed on human industry, and currently proposed actions won't do anything.
It's as if she went down the list of Skeptical Science's most used climate myths, confusing the myths with reality and creating a sort of listicle that even Buzzfeed would be ashamed to publish.
