Pffft... Once Obama is swept to the ash heap of history so will his globull warming climate scam. Whatever he does will be without Congress and will therefore be overturned with the stroke of the next president’s pen.

With limited time still in power . . . Barack Obama is staking his final two years on climate change . . . seeks to leave an imprint on the world that will endure after he's gone.

Why is Obama worried about his damage enduring when that is guaranteed? We have chaos throughout the Arab world, Iran building nukes, Russia expanding into Ukraine, an Ebola outbreak bigger than all previous outbreaks combined, a national debt about to hit $18B and likely to reach $20B before the usurper leaves our White House, the best medical system in the world on its way to third world status, the obliteration of the Bill of Rights (including the end of freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, the right to keep and bear arms, protections against unreasonable search and seizure). Obama's imprint will endure for decades; our children and grandchildren will suffer because of this dreadful experiment in affirmative action.

Planet Earth Allegedly In The Midst Of 30-Year Cold Spell Due To Diminished Solar Activity
Inquisitr ^ | 17 Nov 14
Posted on 11/17/2014, 8:34:17 AM by xzins

The earth is allegedly in the midst of a 30-year cold spell, as is apparently evident from the early icy spell across many parts of North America, as well as last winter being, “One of the snowiest, coldest, most miserable on record,” according to USA Today.

The man who made the claims is climatologist John L. Casey, who is also a former space shuttle engineer and NASA consultant. According to Casey, who just released a new book entitled, Dark Winter: How the Sun Is Causing a 30-Year Cold Spell, a radical shift in global climate is underway, as the Earth gets colder and colder.

The book alleges that due to diminished solar activity, cooler temperatures, similar to those on record from the early 1800s, cooler temperatures are on the way for the foreseeable future.

Casey told Newsmax about his theory, “All you have to do is trust natural cycles, and follow the facts; and that leads you to the inevitable conclusion that the sun controls the climate, and that a new cold era has begun. The data is pretty solid. If you look at the 100-year global temperature chart, you look at the steep drop off we’ve had since 2007, it’s the steepest drop in global temperatures in the last hundred years.”

Casey believes the theory that global temperatures are directly affected by the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is a false one, and his position is backed up by a number of prominent scientists, such as Russian astrophysicist Habibullo I. Abdussamatov, who has also stated that a new, mini-ice age has begun.

In other words, it’s more a case of global cooling than of global warming.

To Casey’s mind, the theory of global warming is a false one, for a number of different reasons, as he told the publication, “No. 1, the greenhouse-gas theory, and the global climate models that they produced, never permitted a pause. As long as CO2 levels were going up, the only thing that could happen was global temperatures could go up. That has not happened. No. 2, there could absolutely be no cooling, much less a pause. And yet we’ve been cooling for 11 years now.”

If Casey is right, the world is currently preparing for the wrong eventuality, as the predominant view is that of global warming and not global cooling. Nevertheless, Casey warns, “We don’t have 10 years. We’ve squandered during President Obama’s administration eight years… and we didn’t have eight years to squander.”

Climate Reporting Chaos in Oregon
Canada Free Press ^ | 11/17/14 | Sierra Rayne
Posted on 11/17/2014, 10:31:27 AM by Sean_Anthony

The catastrophic predictions do not match up with historical trends

For some reason, I don’t find it surprising that Oregon is a hotbed of climate alarmism. Thus, when the Portland Tribune recently published an article describing how Oregon’s “warmer climate imperils our health,” it seemed appropriate to look further into the claims being made.

Apparently, climate change in Oregon will lead to “less snow on Mount Hood? [but] we can live with that.” Interesting, given how there has been no significant trend in maximum overwinter snowpack on Mount Hood since records began in 1981. Indeed, according to an article in 2012 at ABC News Cleveland, snowpack in the Cascade Mountains has been increasing since the mid-1970s.

Tony Abbott snubs Barack Obama’s climate fund demand (Australia)
Daily Telegraph (AUS) ^ | 11/17/2014 | Simon Benson, Daniel Meers
Posted on 11/16/2014, 7:06:14 PM by RightGeek

TONY Abbott has foiled Barack Obama’s attempt to hijack the G20 with climate change, refusing to put a cent into the US President’s push for a $10 billion global green climate fund.

And as chair of the G20, he succeeded in ensuring global economic growth and job creation was at the top of the final declaration yesterday, delivering a blow to Mr Obama’s attempts to elevate climate change to a first order issue ....

... Mr Abbott refused to allow the final communiqué to include a binding requirement that all G20 nations commit to the Green Climate Fund announced by Mr Obama on Saturday at University of Queensland.

Several Australian officials, however, said privately that it had been “discourteous” of the US President to grandstand on the issue as a guest in Australia ...

But The Daily Telegraph can reveal Mr Abbott told world leaders behind closed doors at the G20 summit yesterday that he would “stand up for coal” during a robust debate on climate change.

...

And he refused to give Mr Obama a commitment to contribute funds to the “climate bank” which would assist poor nations combat climate change — a fund he once described as “socialism masquerading as environmentalism”.

According to sources close to the discussions, Mr Abbott was “frank” in arguing against Mr Obama in the meeting. Mr Abbott was supported by others in the room including Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Saudi leader Crown Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz.

Despite claims that climate change would dominate the real discussions in the leaders’ meeting, the final communiqué reflected the original draft circulated by Australia in September, which had climate change listed as the 19th point in the document...

And incredibly stupid. Climate change doesn’t even register any more on lists of “problems” that concern people. Only rich white leftists and media celebrities (but I repeat myself), and tenured grant suckling academics continue to pretend to give a s$%& about it. Most everyone else is worried about surviving this winter with their nose, fingers, and toes intact. Their ability to harm people who tell them to their faces that they’re FOS is done. Now they’re just making fools of themselves.

This morning every state in the lower 48 has a city with freezing temps, including Floriduh. Gorebull/Obozo warming is freezing America.

Herr Obama can "Gruber" us about Gorebull Warming, but the reality of each day shows how he has and is Grubering us.

***Hitler was “elected” Chancellor in 1933.***

Yep. And the people thought they could control him.

He was never “elected”, although I suspect you knew that.

In fact, the Nazis were routed in the last free elections they had.

Hitler was appointed, and engineered a coup.

But it turned out to be the other way around.

Obama is an eco-terrorist who wants to shut down the country economically.

Climate change is just the distraction. The legacy will be the illegals.

There is not ONE climate computer model that has accurately connected CO2 to climate change. In fact CO2 is at its highest levels in 13,000 years and the earth hasn’t warmed in almost 18 years

Antarctic ice pack at all time high.

Arctic ice pack with record growth in last 2 years.

Record-breaking cold, early snow and early Great Lake ice, etc. etc., throughout the U.S.

Polar bears doing just fine.

Droughts no more frequent than usual.

Extreme weather like hurricanes no more frequent than usual.

The seas have not risen.

Yep. Makes total sense Obama wants the “fix” the “climate” as the number one priority of his agenda. After all, the “climate” has been changing radically for a couple billion years on planet Earth long before homo sapiens entered the picture here at the last microsecond.

Weather update. This morning, 11/18/2014, every state including Floriduh and supposedly Obozo's birthstate have temps below freezing. Obozo is Grubering Gorebull Warming!
