Here's where the motivation for “cheating” on the AGW science comes from: billions of dollars falling out of the sky, but available only to those scientists whose research objectives contribute in some way to the AGW story.
To be fair, a good part of this money is going to strictly observational programs that are an unalloyed good. For example, some of this money will pay for satellites to survey the polar region ice coverage, and for other satellites to measure basic climate data (temperature, humidity, pressure, albedo, etc.) worldwide. But it's also true that over a billion dollars a year will go to projects like climate modeling, and these grants, you can be certain, will not go to AGW-skeptical scientists...
