63 years watching the Earth’s weather change, fron NewEngland
blizzards, to hurrivsnes; from Southeast asian dry spells
to monsoons; Southern Cal 1980’s droughts, range fires,
and winter Alaskan storms that came south, to the
very humid Louisiana summers, Hurricane Katrina, Rita,
and Gustav, up close and personal.

Global alarmists are telling fairy tales, to make laws,
make taxes, and silence those using free speech, to
call it crap!

> They remind me of the time people believed the sun revolved around the earth. Deny the facts and support a theory that glorifies your own ideology.

The global warmists believe that the earth’ moon, and stars revolve around them...

An evaluation of rising temperatures is at best a superficial statement. The atmosphere DOES have a vertical dimension. It isn’t just latitude and longitude. And bodies of water (and of ice) have depths.

Until something grapples successfully with these additional factors, anthropogenic climate change fears remain only that, fears. I fear poisonous snakes too, but that does not mean I have a basis to conclude that my yard is full of them.

And attempt to silence anyone who says otherwise.

Or infinitely thin atmospherers. (Ever notice no VERTICAL component of the claimed temp data?)

yep, just like he did with his response to the “do you have animus towards gay people” question by asking the idiot reporter if he “had animus towards Christians” - PER FECTO.

‘Global Warming Alarmists Are The Equivalent Of The Flat-Earthers’


That’s what a lot of us have said for years, but we don’t have the pulpit.

I mean, for a long time it WAS the consensus.

Like I tell my idealistic nephew and nieces: “The earth warms up, the earth cools down”. It drives them nuts. :-)

“We need to invent a brand new word to describe the unbelievable moronic belief in AGW.”

Morons?

Well I know that boys and girls are different sexes and that an X or Y chromosome is the determining factor.

>>We need to invent a brand new word to describe the unbelievable moronic belief in AGW.<<

Actually, we need to do exactly what Cruz did. We need to require them to stick with their first assertion, i.e., “global warming.” They want to switch terminology now that the pause in warming has become so obvious, using “climate change,” and even “climate disruption.” Cruz correctly labels them global warmers and tacks on “alarmist” for good measure, since that’s clearly what they are.

So throw “global warming alarmist” at them at every opportunity. It’s exactly what they are, and it drives them nuts to hear it stated directly. Try it; you’ll like it.

Ironically Ted is so good on most stuff that some people get tripped up when he makes a political move that is counterintuitive, if not unwise. The trade fast tracking might be one such move.

I’d agree, don’t “trust in Ted” but do trust in God, the same one that Ted trusts in. And if Ted does make a mistake, PRAY for literal God’s sake. If we are too wimpy to make “In God We Trust” more than a slogan, then we might as well be honest and ditch the slogan. Heaven is kinder to honest sinners than to pretend saints.

But it does prove that the models are incorrect and the models are what the entire alarmist case is based on.

Exactly, and Ted's point as well. They are just constructing a straw man to redirect, or because they are too stupid to see his point, probably the latter.
