Since the 90s the GW crowd has been saying Miami would be underwater in 5 years.

This antiscientist needs to take a breath and walk back from the shore a bit. Problem solved.

Actually, to solve the problem, he needs to walk well out into the water and then take a breath.

Is it possible that algore went for a swim and that’s why the rise in water levels? His mass could displace a bunch of dihydrogen monoxide. Just wonderin’.

I thought the oceans were evaporating due to global warming

Don’t laugh; it’s already too late for Washington, DC.

Predicted by someone with invisible intelligence.

‘Invisible tsunami’ of rising sea levels puts US coasts at risk, expert says.

Typical alarmist propaganda, and who are these “experts”?

Matter cannot be created or destroyed. Where are they going to get all the water. The antarctic shelf is back to normal. The arctic melt down is insignificant worldwide.

Obama is putting the entire country at risk, not mother nature.

It's like watching a serial on TV, just waiting to see what next season will bring.

You forgot all the imminent pandemics that were supposed to wipe us out ... swine flu, bird flu, zombies ...

Oh, don’t forget the ENERGY CRISIS where we will run out of OIL in 1978. Can’t wait for that to happen... oh, you mean... its 2012? and we still have oil?

Nope, I did my share of “duck and cover.” Dad was Army at the time. Who could forget the Cuban missile crisis?! I just forgot, I wasn’t scarred, just scared!

Personally, I’d be more worried about the invisible creatures that that Eastern Airline flight attendant mentioned last Friday. Of course, to cover up the full story they dragged her off the plane before she could scream all the details. She’s far more credible than the sea level rising crowd.

Ohhhh. I get it! Climate change is “invisible” and that is why deniers can’t see it with your lyin’ eyes! Only liberals have the magic “smart” eyes to see it!!! Now it all makes more sense!

Obama's megalomaniacial quote from a June 2008 campaign speech:

"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal."

Another broken promise.

Yabbut...that was ‘peek’ oil. We’re getting a better look at it now.

I just fed my horses here in Arizona. They are knee deep in invisible water, but they don’t seem to mind it much. I kind of like it, but I’m puzzled why the folks in Tucson, 1000’ lower than me, haven’t drowned and stopped demanding my money in taxes...
