| IPCC Chief Refuses to Apologize because it would be hypocritical |
| 2010-02-03 |
| The embattled chief of the UN's climate change body has hit out at his critics and refused to resign or apologise for a Âdamaging mistake in a landmark 2007 report on global warming. In an exclusive interview with the Guardian, Dr Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, said it would be hypocritical to apologise for the false claim that ÂHimalayan glaciers could melt away by 2035, because he was not personally responsible for that part of the report. "You can't expect me to be personally responsible for every word in a 3,000 page report," he said. |

| #6 You have to admit that he fits right in at the UN, along with the the oil-for-food racket, the child molestation branch, the we MUST have a world tax for one world government conspiracy, the anti-human rights branch, and the "kill the joos" branch. Seriously, what's left? To offer to turn the world into a human abattoir for the hideous insectoid alien invaders? To start a biological war to exterminate all white people? To blind all females at birth? To save the world by requiring cannibalism of the dead? |

| #3 The IPCC issued a statement that expressed regret for the mistake, but Pachauri said a personal apology would be a "populist" step. "I don't do too many populist things, that's why I'm so unpopular with a certain section of society," he said. Except write trashy novels, of course. |

| #2 Ok, Mr. Not Responsible, so - what's your purpose again? What are you doing to justify that fat paycheck? Nothing? I see... |

| #1 "You can't expect me to be personally responsible for every word in a 3,000 page report," Pelosi-Reid-Obama on Nationalized Health Care. "Trust Us", the refrain of the ruling elite. However, while they love the power - THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE for the fraud, corruption, mismanagement, or failure involved. |
