Hurricane Harvey: CNN Fingers "Climate Change"
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/29/2017 10:03:43 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Just as the MSM demands more "gun control" after every mass shooting, so every severe weather event causes the MSM to start beating the "climate change" drum.

And so it began on CNN this morning. CNN's Senior Political Analyst Ron Brownstein gave the standard disclaimer about not attributing any one storm to climate change, but then proceeded to come very close to doing just that. He quoted a former NOAA offical: "this is a preview of the future. There is no doubt that climate change makes . . . storms like this more common."

If we are in the middle of a warming Pause, how can climate change have any current effects?

Didn’t take long for fake news to proven themselves fake again. Any weather event is now politicized or tied to a cause.

Oh for crying out loud.

You know what the real problem is?

Low flow toilets.

All that water we’ve been saving went right to Houston.

SAVE HOUSTON! DOWN WITH LOW FLOW TOILETS!

Makes as much sense as CNN.

Well yano, there were NO hurricanes with Bush’s second term or both Obama’s terms, then Trump gets us out of the Paris accord and look what happens!

See, I can synthesize liberal thinking!

You knew this was going to happen.

And they had to wait 12 years to do it.

And the 12 years without a hurricane?

Clearly, they don’t know squat!

They are giving us the “middle finger” with their lies.

CNN's Senior Political Analyst Ron Brownstein.

Definitely the 'go to' guy for all your weather and climate change information needs. He just overflows with smug smartness.

Oh, they know it's bullshit. Most left-wing activists don't themselves truly believe the BS they put out. Their aim is to get the masses to believe it.

“If we are in the middle of a warming Pause, how can climate change have any current effects?”

Because we have entered into a Grand Solar Minimum with decreased magnetic field which increases cosmic ray penetration and cloudiness. In the past this has resulted in late spring & early autumn frosts, atmospheric compression, floods, famine, economic & political disruption. See “Little Ice Age.”

We are really going to get it. Just not what Algore Mann was expecting.

Then they should be made to look like fools and idiots. Public ridicule should suffice.
