I guess they did it because the progressive liberal left hired all the leftist progressive liberal scientists to advance their agenda leaving only the conservative scientists open for employment....
Good one OP, I love it, another Huff Post leftist biased article

OK, so it's "climate change" now?
Well, if everyone is happy with "climate change", and if we're all done changing official data and conspiring through E-mails to change official data, and if we are finally done running around with hockey stick graphs designed to scare the crap out of people in order to promote a political agenda that was previously DOA, if all that has run its course, maybe someone can explain to me why "climate change" is a bad thing.
Well, when China hands us our ass, we can thank all the brilliant folks in the GOP who've decided to replace our pinko scientists with paid bull**** artists.
I think this country is in danger of descending into chaos. We have about half the electorate who doesn't understand how a successful democratic society is supposed to function.

And for that reason we should subsidize solar panel manufacturing?

To quote Heinrich Cotta, the German Forest scientist:
"Forestry...is based on knowledge of nature. The deeper we penetrate its secrets, the greater the depths before us. What the light of an oil lamp shows is easily missed; many more things can be seen my torch light, but infinitely more in sunlight. The lighter it grows around us the more unknown things become apparent. And it is a sure sign of shallowness if anybody believes he knows it all."
The same can be said of atmospheric and earth system science.
Some people here think they have the knowledge to say what our effect might be, and that they can determine, what is reputable science, based on politics. This is a sure sign of ignorance.
According to a fascinating article by Katherine Bagley prosaically titled "GOP Not Listening to its Own Climate Scientists on Climate Change," a group of prominent conservative scientists, many of them evangelicals, approached conservative politicians to educate them on climate change and predictably the pols have not "warmed," shall we say, to their efforts.
What is amusing about this article is how much they just don't get the point about the science. Notice how the point of the article is that the conservatives aren't accepting alleged conservative scientists conclusions on AGW, and they should, because you know... they are conservative, and religious ones at that! What is wrong with conservatives if they won't appeal to the authority and accept unfounded suppositions from their own political party? Why it is just crazy! /sarcasm
The reason they don't get it is because the entire issue and objection by skeptics is not that of accepting fallacious claims of validity, but that of properly applying scientific process. So, naturally they aren't going to accept such tactics, even from their "own" political parties. /gasp
