Climate scientists have been able to close the sea level «budget» by accounting for the various factors that are causing average global sea levels to rise at the measured rate of about 3.2 millimeters per year since 1992 (when altimeters were launched into space to truly measure global sea level).

Looking at all of the various inputs to global climate - including CO2 and SO2 emissions from man, and natural cycles like La Nina / El Nino, as well as changes in the sun - they believe that the rising sulfate emissions is the most likely factor to have cause the global warming slowdown, between 1998 and 2008.

The Watts paper tries to explain the discrepancy by claiming that the amplification factor over land ranges from 1.1 to 1.4 in various climate models, but does not provide a source to support this claim, which does not appear to be correct (this may be a reasonable range for global amplification factors, but not for land - only).

Even the modest temp increase recorded in the global temp series is likely to be overstated (and very unlikely to be understated) due to various factors such as UHI (in its broader definition of stations getting increasingly in close vicinity of concrete, bricks, asphalt, metal and engines, even in rural areas) and also problems with the choice of stations, and other problems with infilling and averaging of gridcells without due consideration of spatial autocorrelation and other similar problems (cf e.g. the Steig - O'Donnell debate).

I've seen lots of people make comments attributing 100 + % of the observed warming to humans, and they've pretty much all done so while claiming the «pause» is artificial — that the true amount of warming is being concealed by various factors (such as natural cycles or surface temperatures being a poor proxy for global warming).
