Breaking news from STA:

We’ve all been waiting…and now the verdict has been told. Guilty, guilty, and guilty! All three counts get slammed on him, including the terrorist charge at the top. It won’t be long before we hear the cries of injustice from left field.

Another roundup at Michelle Malkin here.

The actual AP report:

Padilla convicted on terrorism support charges

Jose Padilla was convicted of federal terrorism support charges Thursday after being held for 3 1/2 years as an enemy combatant in a case that came to symbolize the Bush administration’s zeal to stop homegrown terror.

Padilla, a U.S. citizen from Chicago, was once accused of being part of an al-Qaida plot to detonate a radioactive “dirty bomb” in the U.S., but those allegations were not part of his trial.

Padilla, 36, and his foreign-born co-defendants, Adham Amin Hassoun and Kifah Wael Jayyousi, were convicted of conspiracy to murder, kidnap and maim people overseas, which carries a penalty of life in prison. All three were also convicted of two terrorism material support counts, which carry potential 15-year sentences each.

One of the biggest problems the GW alarmists have is showing proof of there assertions and theories.  They parade their data, their climate models, their charts and graphs.  The problem is that more and more evidence is surfacing thats fairly convincingly shows that the data is false, misleading, skewed or simply inaccurate.

Sure….sounds like Science to me.

One incredible example is the seeming fraud behind the famous “hockey stick” graph, one of the alarmists favorites graphics.

Global Warming: Orson Scott Card exposes the science fraud behind the Hockey Stick

An intelligence source, working for a government agency. He’s not a spy, he’s an analyst. He uses computers to crunch numbers and at the end of his work, out pops the truth that was hiding in the original data. Let’s call him “Mann.”

The trouble with Mann is, he has an ideology. He knows what he wants his results to be. And the original numbers aren’t giving him that data. So the agency he works for won’t be able to persuade people to fight the war he wants to fight.

He starts with his software. There are certain procedures that are normal and accepted in his line of work. But if he makes just one little mistake, his program does a weird little recursion and if there’s any data at all that shows the pattern he wants it to show, it will be magnified 139 times, so it far overshadows all the other data.

He can run it on random numbers and it gives him the shape he wants. Unfortunately, the real-world numbers aren’t random — they have a very different shape. All the numbers. Even his jimmied program won’t give the results he wants.

All he needs is any data shaped the right way. And so he looks a little farther, and … here it is. It looks, on the surface, like all the other data that he’s been working with. Other researchers working in his field, just glancing at it, will assume it is, too.
