What do you think causes sun spots? ;-) Driving SUV's on the sun?

I’m sure this guy is anti-war, though.
Go figure.

May I point out something. Few if anyone says that global warming is not happening. Some argue that the warming is not man made. Some argue that global warming is good. No one says it is not happening. This is true. But as was pointed out in at least one global warming thread yesterday, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) makes the leap that if there is global warming it must be anthropogenic. That is the rub -- they assume that all climate change is human caused and propose their one-world, government controlled "solutions" to solve the problem. So any opposition or dissenting viewpoints must by suppressed and crushed.

But its our fault..... No it's Bush's fault. :-)

Apparently the sunspots are the fault of conservative, evangelical, right-wing fundamentalist Christians for failure to worship Ra. Undoubtedly the religious right can justifiably be blamed for Ra's wrath and the sunspots.
Remember only you can prevent sunspots: The Cult of Ra: Sun-Worship in Ancient Egypt .

It has been incineration-like thoughts in periods of war being reflected back to the sun (hence a historical cause of sunspots rather than an effect) geometrically aided and abetted by the mirror-effect phenomena of shaved noggins.

This trend is being amplified by gases from fossil fuel burning, they argue. Well, they only say that because they are fools.
I think they said that because they don't want to face an inquisition from the eco-priests.

Congressman Billybob:
Very fine set of quotes. Have these been published anywhere?
I got 'em from a thread over at Slashdot today. I've seen most of them before but it's been a while since I've seen such a large list of them posted here. And it is the quotes that made the article so much fun.
Slashdot:
Sunspots Reach 1000-Year Peak

It sounds loopy, I know, but do a search on the Index Of Mass Human Excitability by A. L. Tchijevsky, written during World War I.

The sunspot cycle isn’t exactly 11 years, so there will be some slippage over long periods of time. I’m not sure a Marxist would account for that since they will look at any excuse to have a revolution, the only thing they are good at.

Actually, if you were a ham radio operator you would know that we are at the bottom of the latest 11 year cycle of sunspots and should be starting on the up swing soon. However, in the last two cycles sunspots were very high and Radio communication was great, now it sucks because the sunspots are low in number. Just FYI. BTW, I believe any warming and cooling of this planet, and others, is caused by the sun.

Gray said that Humans were not the cause of Global Warming.
Emanuel responded that only an idiot would deny that Global Warming was taking place. Exactly the leap I mentioned in an earlier post. They make the jump from acknowledgment of global warming to if you acknowledge global warming you must accept it is human caused. That is like saying that because hurricanes bring wind and rain, if you experience a storm with wind and rain, it must be a hurricane. They maintain the incorrect linking of the two in order to advance their one-world government stance.

“Well, they only say that because they are fools.”
No, if they deny Gore Style Warming they won’t get published in Nature, Scientific American, LATimes, NYTimes et alia.

“Is this correlation due to weather-related disruptions such as famine, “
Or times of plenty, when people have more time on their hands, and those hands can work on things other than survival (plowshares into swords).
Or, in Marxist terms, perhaps the plenty is not distributed evenly and some peoples march to war to correct economic injustices.

Yeah, I thought that amusing also. I suppose if the sun went out, we would get a temperature drop of only a couple of degrees! The CO2 would keep us warm...

Solar scientists strongly suspect there is a link between the two...What,a link between the sun and the weather on earth?Try again.
