The South Pole is COLD!

How does it cut them a break? Like man causes volcanoes to erupt? How stupid can people be?

Volcanoes cause the area affected to cool, not warm, due to the ash cloud.

Amid the cold wave at the birthplace of warming claims, a major geological event is promising to add a wrinkle to the climate debate, handing AGW advocates another opportunity to develop new theories to explain away cooling.

Commonly known as an excuse.

No matter what the volvano's effect, it did nothing to cause cooling before it started.

How do they explain THAT?

They will not accept that the volcano leads to cooling. Al Gore’s investments are at stake and this is no time to admit that warming is over. They need to keep claiming that it is getting hotter.

The latest trick in their book is to claim that 75% of the money from taxes will go to the American public as rebates (although it is a rebate, YOU PAY since the corporations pass on the costs to the consumer). The remaining 25% will go towards research, i.e., to Al Gore’s companies which will specialize in writing grant proposals and getting huge sums of money from the government. Olympia Snowe supports this option.
