Scientist vs Propogandist

Considering the difference between science and "political science"

CO2Sceptics provides letter to USA Today on global warming

Some highlighted excerpts include:
"The difference between a scientist and propagandist is clear. If a scientist has a theory, he searches diligently for data that might contradict it so that he can test it further or refine it. The propagandist carefully selects only the data that agrees with his theory and dutifully ignores any that contradicts it. The global warming alarmists don't even bother with data! All they have are half-baked computer models that are totally out of touch with reality and have already been proven to be false."

"From the El Nino year of 1998 until Jan., 2007, the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere near its surface decreased some 0.25 C.
From Jan., 2007 until the Spring of 2008, it dropped a whopping 0.75 C."
