No mystery here. Congress just passed tougher CAFE standards. Amazing how fast they kicked in.

For the “climate change” cultists, this is easily rectified. They’ll ignore it. This heresy doesn’t fit the narrative.

“Don’t confuse the global warmers with the facts.”

You really can’t. If you want to see an example of people who’ve bought lock, stock and barrel into a cult the global warming crowd is it.

They can’t explain global warming in their own words. It is always regurgitation of a website of some “scientist”. When the “scientist” is showed to be a paid environmental hack it doesn’t dissuade these people.

They’ll just ignore any factual data you present. For me it all comes down to one thing: They can’t predict the weather two weeks from now so they can’t predict it fifty years from now. Weather is the major determinant of climate so the argument of weather being different from climate is axed.

But it doesn’t matter. These people will continue on with these childish fantasies because they believe that a screwy light bulb can affect the gross energy of three billion plus cubic miles of atmosphere.

priceless...absolutely priceless...

no doubt they will spin this as proof of climate change...

i cannot remember recently which anti global warming scientist said we were actually about to hit a cooling period (natural one) and that all this hype was unfounded...looks like he might be right...

Optimistic prediction: Senator or Prez. McCain will admit he was wrong before others. (Well, at least before AlGore!)

Yep. John McLame’s answer to Global Warming is LESS ECONOMIC FREEDOM.

He is weak.

No it's not, it is gravity pulling all the ice downhill from the North Pole to the South Pole. < /sarc>

Did I really need a the < /sarc> tag?????

I’m going to start an Ice Offset Trading company. For every $100 you send me to assuage your evil ice-generating ways, I’ll put one ice cube in my wife’s drink.

I'll give you some competition, with advertising that says: for every $90 you send me, a $10 savings vs. the Cementjungle Ice Offset Trading Company, I'll put two ice cubes in Cementjungle's wife's drink.

Isn't capitalism marvelous?

I’m still waiting for someone to convince me that carbon-offset trading is more than just a Ponzi scheme.

Maine is an example of local cooling, a sidearm in the Global Warming War; Antarctica is the howitzer.

As an Arizonan, what would McCain know about seasons? Oh yeah, he’s a Washingtonian, not a Zonie.
