Experts: Despite cold snap, earth still warming (OMG! These people really think we're that dumb)
MSNBC ^ | 1/6/2010 | AP

Beijing had its coldest morning in almost 40 years and its biggest snowfall since 1951. Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap since 1981. And freezing weather is gripping the Deep South, including Florida's orange groves and beaches.

Whatever happened to global warming?

Such weather doesn't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases. But experts say the cold snap doesn't disprove global warming at all — it's just a blip in the long-term heating trend.

Time for the global warmer loonies to give it up. It’s over. They all need to go out and try to find a real job.

Wonder when they’ll start yelling global cooling again like in the 70’s.
Hope it’s before we freeze, like in the 70’s.

I think global warming zealots are really this dumb.

I think they believe their own propaganda as if it were gospel.

Facts support theory
Nope, no can do

Theory can’t be wrong,
so discount facts

Yup there’s the ticket

Deke Arndt of the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C., noted that 2009 will rank among the 10 warmest years for Earth since 1880.

Wow. Since 1880. Out of 4 billion years that's pretty impressive.

Let's see, in November 2008, Hansen of NASA proclaimed October 2008 the warmest on record, until of course it was pointed out to him that for many Siberian weather stations, the September data was simply copied to October. His answer was that he didn't have time to check data, but he knew we were getting warmer.

But never mind, when it is colder than normal, the only conclusion that can be drawn is that global warming will continue.

I remember a few years ago, the MSM was reporting that January was unusually mild, AND, the global warming people said that mild winter weather was indicative of global warming.

But now that weather is unusually cold, we’re told that you can’t look at cold snaps as indicating anything. If there is a warm spell, it’s okay to say that weather is part of the global warming trend, but if it’s cold, then the weather is irrelevant.

Who ever said liberals made sense??????

Well, I say a few warm years don’t prove global warming at all — it’s just a blip while heading into the next ice age.

I do not consider short term events, such as a record cold winter, to be the Holy Grail against AGW, but it is fun to throw snowballs in Albert Goreon’s face.

I prefer to recognize long term events, such as the MWP, which lasted about 400 years, followed by the little ice age, to throw at the AGW crowd.

So-Called Experts "say the cold snap doesn't disprove global warming at all — it's just a blip in the long-term heating trend."

While those who do not stand to profit from phony Global Warming scams question if the minor warming we recently experienced wasn't just a blip in the long-term cooling trend.

Keep it up people...The One who controls the weather is able to make it very, very cold. I’d drop the farce of Global Warming if I were you. Looks an awful lot like Babel and will probably have worse results.
