I guess this means that although 2 + 2 used to equal 5, it now equals 6.

I'll have to adjust my spreadsheet calculations accordingly.

Plus, grandpa’s gout is hurting something bad and we have a flock of crows nesting in the oak tree out back

If that ain’t a sign of something bad about to happen, I don’t know what is.

The left keeps forgetting their meme that ‘weather and climate are two different things’.

See, they trot that out when there’s inordinately cold weather and then conveniently forget it when there’s hot weather...like you have in the summer.

The drought in the midwest is the ‘worst since 1956!’ yet no one blames the 1956 drought on global warming, do they? Because that occured during the 1947-1980 cool period.

In short, I am tired of these people.

I'd be far more receptive to the idea of global warming and climate change if it wasn't for the fact that the left only seems to have one answer to ALL our climate woes.

More big government socialist paradigm!!

I'm all for protecting the environment, but I'm sick and tired of the left using the environment as a vehicle to advance their causes and belief systems.

One very simple, fundamental problem with all his (?) sensational prose...

I don't believe it for a second. All that hysteria is based on numbers and calculations that are known to have been falsified and/or cherry-picked.

Sure, you can claim these are the real deal, that you (so-called climate "scientists") have cleaned up your act. But you have zero credibility. None. All your wild predictions of chaos may even be correct (But then, why would you have felt the need to lie and alter the basic data?) but no-one is going to believe it. You've all been shouting "the sky is falling" while trying to sell umbrellas so long that no one is buying into your agenda anymore. Go away, go home, get a real job.

Global Warming... That must be the reason Seattle has had a total... That’s right, a TOTAL of 50 minutes above 80 degrees this year so far. That’s over a three day period. 50 minutes. June average high temp was 58 deg.

Global Warming. If it’s like this, I can live with it.

Meteorologists reported that this spring was the warmest ever recorded for our nation

That long, huh? That would be about 150 years of recorded temperature. An veritable eon.

It may be true, but it offers little evidence that man is responsible for any of it.

Bill, may I just call you a MORANIC DRONE for short. MORANIC DRONE. That is called a heat wave. When the ocean seems like it's rising, that is called TIDE. When we had the record cold spells recently, remember that, that wasn't the on slought of GLOBAL COOLING was it. It was a cold wave. Those things occur natually in nature. I know it hard for SOCIALIST DEMOCRAT MORANIC DRONES to fathom. But there is no GLOBAL WARMING CAUSED FROM HUMAN CO2 occuring. And you or any other MORONIC DRONES can not prove otherwise, without doctoring the data like you did in the IPCC climategate scam.
