PSU has not stated that Michael Mann is under investigation. That claim is a lie... or, as you might call it, a rhetorical flourish.

A lie?

From your link:

University Reviewing Recent Reports on Climate Information

Professor Michael Mann is a highly regarded member of the Penn State faculty conducting research on climate change. Professor Mann’s research papers have been published in well respected peer-reviewed scientific journals. In November 2005, Representative Sherwood Boehlert (R-NY) requested that the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) convene a panel of independent experts to investigate Professor Mann’s seminal 1999 reconstruction of the global surface temperature over the past 1,000 years. The resulting 2006 report of the NAS panel (http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=11676) concluded that Mann’s results were sound and has been subsequently supported by an array of evidence that includes additional large-scale surface temperature reconstructions.

In recent days a lengthy file of emails has been made public. Some of the questions raised through those emails may have been addressed already by the NAS investigation but others may not have been considered. The University is looking into this matter further, following a well defined policy used in such cases. No public discussion of the matter will occur while the University is reviewing the concerns that have been raised.

You can argue all day but the planet is NOT dying and nobody gives enough of a **** anymore for any politician to do anything about it.

So, there you have it. PSU is looking into the matter.

I haven't claimed that an investigation isn't underway. What I wrote is that PSU has not stated that Michael Mann is under investigation.

I wouldn't think so. Watching you dance around like a monkey on a string is a bit entertaining.

I have to give you props for persistence, though. Sorta like broccoli farts - they just sorta linger on......

There's nothing incriminating in the Mann emails and the fact that Mr. Mann hasn't been fired by Penn State University or indicted or even fined underlines that point.

Deny it all you want to Libtard...doesn't change the fact that you've dug yourself into such a hole on this...again...that a couple more shovel fulls of dirt on your part and you'll find yourself in the Forbidden City among the Terra-cotta Warriors.

The only things to you've got left to defend your totally untenable position is akin to arguing about the pronunciation of Tomato and Potato.
