Indisputable
The Richmond Times Dispatch ^ | 8/29/2013 | Unsigned editorial

Posted on 08/29/2013 4:25:14 AM PDT by Captain Jack Aubrey

A leaked draft of the U.N.’s latest climate assessment rates the probability that human action is warming the planet as a near certainty. Six years ago, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change concluded with 90 percent certainty that human activity has caused most of the planet’s warming over the past half-century. This year’s draft raises the probability to 95 percent. The small cadre of committed skeptics likely will dismiss the latest finding as yet another lie by a vast conspiracy bent on imposing one-world government. Two decades ago that might have been a defensible position. Today it is laughable. Just look at how hard the Obama administration has tried to keep domestic spying by the NSA secret — and how little success it has had doing so. The NSA’s activities are highly classified. The data on climate, by contrast, are open to scrutiny by anyone, which should make exposing any falsehoods a piece of cake. Yet during the past two decades the case for the anthropogenic thesis has grown stronger — not weaker. The latest assessment by the world’s best scientific minds says it has grown stronger still. It is long past time to stop debating the fact of global warming and start debating how to deal with it.

This used to be a conservative paper. Now it is owned by Obama buddy Warren Buffett. This headline should have read "Shut Up, They said."

Pitiful.

What is laughable is that this scam has been outed many times in the International arena and you criminal organizations keep trying to resurrect it. FOAD... I hope that all of you leftards boil in your own gloBULL warming reality.

Fie Fi Fo Fam.....I smell the blood of a Straw Man.

Let me get this straight.....Obama is grossly incompetant, therefore Global Warming MUST be real.

It doesn’t get any stupider than this, folks.

Smells like something that came out of the north end of a southbound horse.

This should be viewed within the context of the actual conspiracy that was revealed a couple years ago: The emails that were made public.

The truth is, via scientific study, unsigned, is that leftists cause “goreball warming”. Draw your own conclusions on the necessary steps to resolve.

I use someone’s association with or support of the Democrat party as a good indicator as to their moral character.

Now I use a belief in man-made global warming as a good indicator as to their mental capacity as well.

These are useful and accurate tools in evaluating people.

I don't think I would have used that particular argument, pardner. Wasn't Global Warming the first major casualty of WikiLeaks—showing specifically that "research" at East Anglia—and yes, Virginia! That is, UVa—had turned into a conspiracy to cover up unhelpful data and suppress the publication of papers that were damaging to the Global Toast hypothesis? All to protect, not the truth, but funding?

I am reminded of how the Catholic Church....for roughly a thousand years....did everything possible to ensure nothing written by Aristotle was in public view, or used in any of the church’s universities of higher learning. Challenging their way of thinking was just plain unacceptable. By destroying most of the works of Aristotle....the Catholic Church almost had their version of the universe and knowledge easily sewn up.

Then, along came those silly Muslims....who apparently kept a great deal of the works of Aristotle. And over the years, as enlightenment arrived....the church’s version of reality disappeared.

I think the global warming crowd faces the same disappointment in the end. Fake science doesn’t win against real science.

We get it. You never heard of Thomas Aquinas.

Don’t make this thread about your ignorance.

An unsigned editorial is worth about as much as all that supposedly peer-reviewed study on the subject. In truth, the results are a collusion of lies by ‘peers’ that have resulted in malformed offspring much the same as a mutant resulting from multiple generations of inbreeding.

Total bullshit.

Just wait till February, when the Super Bowl is played in a blinding snowstorm. From all I see, we are going to have an absolutely frigid, brutal winter. No, weather does not make climate, but in an ever warming climate, you don’t have brutally cold winters.

We’re going to have one. And the whole “sky is falling” crowd will fall on deaf ears. Too bad we closed all those coal-fired electric plants.

In related but unreported news, it has now been 2867 days (7.85 years) since the last major (Cat 3 or above) has made landfall in the United States. This shatters the old record of 2231 days (6.11 years) set 19 Oct 1906.

Since Global Warming predicts more and more hurricanes of greater and greater force, this record breaking long calm spell proves Global Warming is true.

(Or something.)

Except, of course, for the "lost data" and the models they refuse to allow others to examine. This is the crux of the problem: The so-called "deniers" are completely open with their evidence. The "warmers" are quite closed.
