Some respond to Japan earthquake by pointing to global warming
The Daily Caller ^ | 3/11/2011 | Amanda Carey

I place the blame squarely on the public employee unions.

It took them hours? they’re slipping. It took them twenty minutes to blame the Tuscon shooting on Sarah Palin.

How about the earthquake caused global warming, not the other way around? (yeah, I know either one is stupid) Oh, I know... the SUN causes global warming...maybe we should blow it up to stop the problem. *rolling eyes*

You can always tell the Irish
You can always tell the Dutch
You can always tell a warmist
But you cannot tell him much.

The problem with the human race is this: At any given time, 1/3 of the population is so stupid, if they were given control over the rest of us, civilization would vanish.

"Some respond to Japan earthquake by pointing to global warming"

Global warming is unlikely to be the cause. Because the Earth is flat, the earthquake was caused by a huge meteor hitting the underside of the Earth. (S)

Gee Staffan, I hope the Japanese aren't insulted by your INCREDIBLY OFFENSIVE ATTEMPT TO HIJACK THIS EARTHQUAKE for your own purposes.

Rush predicted this, and he also predicted that they would blame it on fracking in the Dakotas because Japan is on the opposite side of the world.

Dittos to what you said. All that flatulence coming out of these "union rallies" has to be doing some big damage to mother Earth.

Can the heartbreak of psoriasis be taxed?

Actually I expected to hear from them a few hours sooner.

Hopefully, they will be able to tell us what kind of SUVs exactly caused the earthquakes that have been shaping our planet for eons? Or even what human activity supposedly caused all of those earthquakes?

Crickets? I thought so.
