All that clown Nye could do was spout discredited IPCC propaganda.
You have a very awkward definition of "bitch slap". Bastardi got his ass kicked...
Nye turned Bastardi's own data againmst him including the mistake belief that 1998 was the highb temperature mark...but it was not lost on me that Nye had to use hand held visual aids while Bastardi's were Faux News graphics....
Even the AGW moonbats, when they are honest, admit the earth has been cooling:
Professor Latif is based at the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Kiel University in Germany and is one of the world's top climate modellers.
But he makes it clear that he has not become a sceptic; he believes that this cooling will be temporary, before the overwhelming force of man-made global warming reasserts itself.
So what can we expect in the next few years?
Both sides have very different forecasts. The Met Office says that warming is set to resume quickly and strongly.
It predicts that from 2010 to 2015 at least half the years will be hotter than the current hottest year on record (1998).
Sceptics disagree. They insist it is unlikely that temperatures will reach the dizzy heights of 1998 until 2030 at the earliest. It is possible, they say, that because of ocean and solar cycles a period of global cooling is more likely.
Latif pushed back hard against the Mail, saying that the tabloid took his comments out of context to make an editorial statement. "It comes as a surprise to me that people would try to use my statements to try to dispute the nature of global warming. I believe in manmade global warming. I have said that if my name was not Mojib Latif it would be global warming," he said. "There is no doubt within the scientific community that we are affecting the climate, that the climate is changing and responding to our emissions of greenhouse gases."
Everybody knows he is an AGW zealot who will support the notion hell or highwater. However, even HE does not dispute the cooling since 1998.

You just lied...maybe you and Boofer should be friends...
WASHINGTON - An analysis of global temperatures by independent statisticians shows the Earth is still warming and not cooling as some global warming skeptics are claiming.
The analysis was conducted at the request of The Associated Press to investigate the legitimacy of talk of a cooling trend that has been spreading on the Internet, fueled by some news reports, a new book and temperatures that have been cooler in a few recent years.
Professor Latif is based at the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Kiel University in Germany and is one of the world's top climate modellers.
But he makes it clear that he has not become a sceptic; he believes that this cooling will be temporary, before the overwhelming force of man-made global warming reasserts itself.

Again, even Latif knows there has been been cooling and nothing you linked shows him saying differently.
As for the use of weather stations to demonstrate warming by other sources:

It has become nearly impossible to hear about "global warming" without giggling. The so-called "global warming" that Albert Gore promised has yielded to global cooling. Meanwhile, Gore's vaunted scientific "consensus" has collapsed like a roof buckled beneath too much snow:
NASA is fending off charges that it "dramatically trimmed the number and cherry-picked the locations of weather observation stations they use to produce the data set on which temperature record reports are based," according to Weather Channel founder John Coleman. Average global temperatures are calculated based on observations from some 1,500 weather stations today, compared with about 6,000 in the 1970s. Canadian stations have fallen to 35 from 600.
Icecap.us meteorologist Joseph D'Aleo, another Weather Channel veteran, says NASA has removed "higher-latitude, high-altitude" locations from its sample. Andean weather gauges, for instance, are overlooked, while regional temperatures now are based on readings "on the coast or in the Amazon," D'Aleo says. He compares this to calculating Minneapolis' average temperature by checking thermometers in St. Louis and Kansas City.
Oh and as far as this "independent" study by statiisticians (unnamed methodologies and sources, of course) that AP conducted proving the cooling was a myth, a good take on that here:
