The reference to right wing is an implied smear, suggesting someone with generally right wing views cannot be trusted on any subject. Surely what someone says should be judged objectively on it's own merit. You referred to bloggers you said were dubious as right wing libertarian. Would their analysis be more credible if they were the opposite i.e. left wing authoritarian?? No. Agreed? If so it was a pointless observation.
The polarisation of the global warming debate into left wing/right wing is one of the most alarming aspects and you seem to be contributing. Science should not be politicised. The curious silence in the Guardian/Independent on the analysis being done on the leeked software is odd.
