I post a graphic showing how climate scientists have been able to more than adequately adjust the climate network data to account for the impact of the UHIE and you and LOP go into full conspiracy theory mode.
Here’s a few your joint conspiracy theories and why they are bogus:
Conspiracy theory: The data is from a lying blogger. No. Here’s the root source of the data and a snapshot of the data shown directly from the source:
Several different methodologies to estimate the temperature history of the contiguous United States, including NCEI's current operational version. Users can graph, compare and save the output from these different methods.

Conspiracy Theory: The length of the data was cherry picked. No. All the data available was used. The pristine sites used to compare to the entire monitoring network were not fully in operation until 2005.
Conspiracy Theory: August was a cherry picked month. Bigger differences would show up if January or February was used. No. August was picked because the UHIE effect has the most impact in that month. February, the coldest month, has even closer agreement than August as shown here:

Conspiracy theory: Choosing the single month of August is cherry picking. Annual numbers covering the entire year should have been used. No. The annual numbers show better agreement than August as shown here:
