As for the validity of the cosmic ray flux, the Rahmstorf et al. critique on the Milky Way spiral arms / ice - age epoch work on did not contain any valid points (see http://www.sciencebits.com/ClimateDebate), this is contrary to the Royer et al. critique which did contain an interesting point.

Agreed, but if it isn't CO2 [based on this absence of a temperature corrolation] then we would be wise to assume the above solar irradiance, solar UV irradiance, cosmic ray flux, Milankovitch cycles etc as being the most likely culprit.
7.4.5 Impact of Cosmic Rays on Aerosols and Clouds 43 44 High solar acti0vity leads to variations in the strength and three - dimensional structure of the heliosphere, 45 which reduces the flux of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) impinging upon the Earth's atmosphere by increasing 46 the deflection of low energCosmic Rays on Aerosols and Clouds 43 44 High solar acti0vity leads to variations in the strength and three - dimensional structure of the heliosphere, 45 which reduces the flux of galactic cosmic rays (GCR) impinging upon the Earth's atmosphere by increasing 46 the deflection of low energcosmic rays (GCR) impinging upon the Earth's atmosphere by increasing 46 the deflection of low energy GCR.
Reconstructing cosmic ray fluxes The starting point of [Shaviv and Veizer, 2003] is a reconstruction of cosmic ray fluxes over the past 1,000 m.y. based on 50 iron meteorites and a simple model estimating cosmic ray flux (CRF) induced by the Earth's passage through Galactic spiral arms -LRB-[Shaviv, 2002; Shaviv, 2003]-RRB-.
I went through that link in that statement and don't see anywhere Shaviv agreeing that Cook et al. correctly classified his abstract of his paper «On climate response to changes in the cosmic ray flux and radiative budget».
They are most likely caused by variations in the solar wind and associated magnetic fields that affect the flux of cosmic rays incident on the earth's atmosphere.

Solar cycles of magnetic variability result in changes in the luminal spectra of the sun, the properties of the solar wind, and the flux of galactic cosmic rays incident on Earth's atmosphere.
The Singer report has many valid points — that the IPCC has repeatedly published erroneous or misleading graphs, that the IPCC completely ignored groundbreaking research into the connection between high energy cosmic ray flux and climate, and that the «fingerprint» test of the pattern of mid-latitude warming casts doubt on climate models, the anthropogenic effect, or both.
