Lengthy article but the scientists' convolutions in trying to link recent frigid events to global warming misses one very important element in the analysis: The impact of the sun. In fact, the "S" word is not even mentioned in the 1,350 plus word article.

I invite others to post links to the Arctic summer sea ice graphics that show this past year the ice extent recovered from the retreat of the previous year (2012) and even that shrinkage was not all that different from documentation earlier in the 20th century before the age of satellites.

‘It’s nuts’: Joe Bastardi shreds global warming study for ‘stealing and repackaging’ ideas of others [correction added]

@BigJoeBastardi @BloombergNews sssh...Joe you're ruining the left wing bourgeois plan of burdening us w/ their unconstitutional "carbon tax"—

WeatherBell.com chief meteorologist and outspoken critic of Al Gore-style global warming “science,” Joe Bastardi, tweeted a link to a Bloomberg News article about attempts to determine “why the rate of global warming has eased in the past 20 years while greenhouse-gas emissions have surged to a record”:

Global-Warming Slowdown Due to Pacific Winds, Study Shows bloom.bg/1o7gjHo via @BloombergNews
THIS IS ALL CLIMATE CYCLE THEORY!—

In other words, those “scientists” are trying to figure out why the planet isn’t cooperating with their scare mongering rhetoric.

Bastardi blasted the authors of the study for “discovering” what’s been known for decades and re-shaping the findings of others to fit their agenda:

The Oscillation in wind/ocean is a known and leads to the shifts back and forth in multi-decadol patterns.They are discovering what is known—

AGW people dont know climate cycle theories that many of us do.. and suddenly "discover" them and then own them as their own. Its nuts—
Joe Bastardi (@BigJoeBastardi) February 09, 2014

Its like they are redistributing ideas that someone else found, and making them their own. Literally stealing and repackaging for own agenda—
Joe Bastardi (@BigJoeBastardi) February 09, 2014

To all agw people for the kajillionth time read Dr Bill Grays paper on this which explains it all. His idea, from 70s

The 1970′s was of course back when there was an ice age scare instead of global warming.

Update:

Bastardi adds this:

@TwitchyTeam I wil probably do my @PatriotPost this week on the repackaging of known climate cycle arguments as AGW driven. #desperation—

One of these days the godless liberals are going to learn that God put the planet on autopilot. It’s self-regulating. Only arrogant pissanr liberals believe than man can put a dent in the world’s climate system. Short of total nuclear conflagration, that is. Which might put a temporary dent in it.

The pool of cold air in the northern hemisphere is like a balloon. Squeeze it someplace, it bulges another. That pattern changes from year to year. The amount of cold air changes over time based on a number of different cycles of varying length. And yes, it’s all based on the rhythms of the sun. Right now, it looks like we are headed for a colder cycle after having been through a warmer one.

The Penn and Teller “Bullshit” episode on Global Warming was great. They had the founder of the weather channel with a graph of global temperatures, CO2 and solar output. Global temperatures tracked solar activity closely, while CO2 only went up over time.

Lengthy article but the scientists' convolutions in trying to link recent frigid events to global warming misses one very important element in the analysis: The impact of the sun...Scientists have no idea how many and what variables control our climate, let alone what the relationship of those variables to the climate is, let alone how the variables interact with each other - eg how does rising CO2 affect cloud formation and dissipation and visa versa. Right now we have three models predicting anything from 1 inch to 20.5 inches of snow for Philly the day after next - I say it again - and yet they can tell us that we'll have a rise in the sea levels by exactly 3.9 inches and increased average temperature of 8.2 degrees F in exactly 50 years - preposterous.....

Drought or unusual warmth is in sync with the effects that climate scientists expect from global warming.

Horse Hockey. They've only glommed onto these 'effects' after the warming they predicted didn't occur, nor did the drastic rise in sea levels, or increase in hurricanes hitting the US mainland.

[Windflier]

"...global warming's effect on the Arctic..."

Someone's not doing even grade school level research, to make a statement like that.

Even low infos who read the UK Daily Mail have seen satellite photos showing that Arctic sea ice has more than doubled since last winter.

Folks, Its SETTLED SCIENCE!

GorBullWarming is the root cause of ALL YOUR MISERIES!

Even those minus zero temps!

BUT, you are just too stupid and uneducated to understand all those complex intricacies.

Just ask Algore! Visionary Extraordinaire!
