Unnerved by New York Times reportage of NASA panicking over my Freedom of Information Act requests seeking NASA’s internal discussions of Climategate, its principals, and related activities involving data manipulation and management, a reader of Climate Progress’s blog (a project of the Center for American Progress), suggests that we at the Competitive Enterprise Institute be assassinated.

A commenter notes that possibly that’s not appropriate, if only because they have already been called out for “name calling.” The two are on a par, I suppose, for people who so demonstrably have no internal governance of their perspective, and a complete lack of proportion.

You see by the addendum attached by Romm that this exchange snaps him to attention and responsible editorship. Er, not about the call for assassination — which as editor he leaves up and thereby endorses. But the rebuke. He quickly condemns the commenter for citing Fox News as evidence that they have been called out. This guy is rich.

Whoever controls such things, please, please keep Pachauri at the IPCC and Romm at Team Soros.
