This is insane...

Statistically the hurricane rates have been lower than normal over the last decade... they have no proof that the Harvey was caused by man made global warming...

Yet they accuse others who don’t go along with the inaccurate group think as ignorant...?

Well, obviously you're wrong. Hurricanes are created only when people put tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.

You are both clearly wrong. There is only one person who is responsible for this mess, and his name is President Donald J. Trump. /s

LOL!

I’m so old I remember when schools taught logic courses in which students learned not to use logical fallacies in their arguments.

Now logical fallacies are the basis for most political discussions, and even clothed as “science”.

Logical fallacy: Still wrong.

Rain is cancer?

Where’s my umbrella?

I still blame this on low flow toilets.

All that water we saved went to Houston.

Makes as much sense as anything the Democrats are saying.

Down with low flow toilets!

“I’ll take Hurricanes Caused Them to Sink for $200, Alex.”

And the hurricanes may also cause Guam to tip over and capsize! Who needs North Korea to cause destruction when we have climate change?! LOL!

(Thanks, Representative Johnson, for that fantastic tidbit!)

One major hurricane in 10 years and predictably it’s all about global warming to the liberals.

What was Amelia in 1978 when she dumped 48 inches on Corpus Christi in less time than Harvey?

Harvey is precisely the kind of weather event that scientists have been predicting climate change would give us...

Unmitigated Bullshit!!

Hard to accept anything they say about “Big Tobacco” from the party that wants to legalize marijuana.

It has nothing to do with any other species breathing or farting,

Well now that's not entirely true. Once we started milking cows, riding horses, and utilizing other species for our own purposes, their previously benign (though pleasantly fragrant) farts began to wreak havoc on Earth's climate.

Hurricanes has been a fact in the Gulf for millennia. Despite the dire predictions of Al Gore who assured us that there would be more and worse hurricanes it has been a decade since a hurricane like Harvey has hit the Gulf. Compared to history we are seeing less not more hurricanes.

If the “climate change” crazies were correct, New Jersey would no longer exist.

The publication of this newspaper proves that global warming was a total fraud.

Not quite. The Harvey global Warming Kooks take a page from the Salem Witch Hanging Prosecutors.

Katrina was a monster cane. Remember how big it looked as it ramped up ? Was the size of the entire state of Texas. And where it’s strong winds landed on the coast, the entire coastline was leveled.

No major canes hit the US past 12 years. Means cat 3 or up. In reality a major or monster cane should be cat 4 or cat 5. Cat 3’s are primarily a flooding event. Harvey was just barely a Cat 4 when it touched land. By the time the eye landed it had to be a Cat 3. They always weaken once they start to cross land.

The only difference between this storm and the same type of storms 10,000 years ago is we didn’t have millions of people living in these low laying areas.
Or 24/7 news reports, or the bullsh!t GOREBAL WARMING RELIGION.
