Do these idiots even read the weather channel? I was cold as hell here this morning and it's supposed to drop to 31 tonight.
Yesterday I saw a funny headline, "Chicago blanketed by 4 inches of global warming". (Snow)

Here in Michigan, we just got 8 inches of snow!

I’m sure its just a coincidence that this type of garbage comes out just when the US Congress starts considering "Cap and Trade” legislation…

Read the article, it's all "projections" by "top" "climate scientists" (sorry for the extensive use of "").
Seriously, nothing in this cites the tiniest shred of empirical evidence. It's all, "What's your gut say on this, Sven?"
This is identical to Mel Kiper Jr's picks. In Oct did Dickie V predict UNC over MSU?
But, the headline and general tone of the article makes it seem like ominous, undeniable scientific evidence.

Sure the Artic Ocean is free of ice.....

Neat picture, but I think it has been summer Arctic sea ice that has been the focus of recent concerns.

Yeah, it's spring break here. I look outside and all the kids are playing, bundled in coats and hoods.
According to the masses, if it was warmer than when they were kids, it proves global warming. It's now colder than when I was a kid, ergo global cooling is proven. We're saved!

Yeah, but see .....
They only had to break thru 10' 8" of ice instead of the normal 10' 8.0000000000001" of ice ....
So GLOBAL WARMING IS REAL BY THAT STANDARD !!!!!!!
After all, Bill O'Reilly says it's so, then it MUST BE TRUE !!!!

Let's see here ........
Weather is the "Real Time Happening" of the Earth's storms, droughts, floods, rains, snow, blizzards, freezes, heatwaves, etc etc etc ....
Climate is a Measurement of Sustained WEATHER !!!!!! WOW he says !!!!!!!

Oh hell no. Don't give me that "climate" change ****. You guys said "global warming".
Make up your collective f'n minds. You can't change the vernacular to better suit your argument. ...of which you have none. Hell, I believe in climate change. EVERYONE believes in climate change. It's the reason there are ancient seabeds in the Sahara and the reason the top half of the US was covered in ice at one point in time.

Ok, so when did this happen?
You keep making these claims Robert...I want to see some evidence to demonstrate they're facts. That's the part you never really do. That's why your ideas are routinely considered stupid.

Good question.
But Robert's not into facts. Not his thing.

I'd be very interested in having you explain how that's related to climate change. It's something akin to claiming that the Tsunami in December 2004 was related to global warming/climate change (or worse, god's punishment for wearing bikinis).

Quote:WASHINGTON, DC, Jan. 3–A new report from the Union of Concerned Scientists offers the most comprehensive documentation to date of how ExxonMobil has adopted the tobacco industry's disinformation tactics, as well as some of the same organizations and personnel, to cloud the scientific understanding of climate change and delay action on the issue. According to the report, ExxonMobil has funneled nearly $16 million between 1998 and 2005 to a network of 43 advocacy organizations that seek to confuse the public on global warming science.

Did you actually read it? The UCS continues to embarass themselves. They are also the ones that said missile defense couldn't work.

Why do we keep beating each other up on this one ????
I believe most of us agree that the Earth goes thru "Cyclic Changes" that include Weather, Climate (since Libs want to separate Weather and Climate now), Volcanic/Tectonic Activity, Floods/Drought, Snow/Lack of Snow, and on and on.
The Earth is not being affected by our menial puttering upon her in the gross way Al Gore and the Real Tinfoil Troop are screaming it is.
There is evidence that the Earth knows best how to deal with her issues and does what she is supposed to do to tend to what problems or lack there of, exist.
There is not one single thing we Humans can do that will even put a blemish on the Earth, yet because we sprayed a lot of Hair Spray during the Disco Era, we have fraught the Earth and Universe unto a Hellish Doom filled with all sorts of Frighting Calamities and Disasters.
And you Libs believe this crap lock, stock, and barrel when you can't see Obama is the ruination of all you know ?????
And if the Earth is getting hotter, it is because it must become that way to make the means to an end .... it is that simple.
We didn't Cause It and we sure as Hell Can't Even Slow It Down, so why do we do this ????
Kyoto and Carbon Credits are so humorous, that anyone with any sort of logical thought, will have to burst out into uncontrollable laughter at the mere mention of how it will "Stop the Catastrophe and Save the Universe". (First - where is the Catastrophe ???)
Do we need to be cleaner and more responsible with our gifts ... YES ... but to believe we have made this happen in our short pathetic history, is for a return episode of the Twilight Zone .....
