Yeah, because that dang Panama Canal was such a burden and our friendship with Iran was getting a little stale.
Global warming is caused by Liberals. The BEST way to keep the planet from warming is to
1) Cover the mouths of Liberals with Duct Tape,
2) Place Liberals in underground prisons (ambient temperature in caves will cool the hot air),
3) Send Liberals to Africa because there’s already hot air there. They could help the Africans build irrigation ditches, etc.

thanks, bfl
After all he was VP and they are really smart people..............just ask Joe Biden
We know that global warmings have occurred several times before the existence of Man. Even if we don't understand how or why, we know for certain that Nature can do it. Therefore, any argument about the causes of global warming must begin with the assumption that it is natural.
In order to argue that the Mankind is the cause, it must first be shown, beyond doubt, that Nature cannot be the cause. But since we don't understand the climate well enough to completely explain the natural variations, then we don't understand it well enough to prove that the current variations aren't natural. So the first essential hurdle has not been met.
Then there are the other problems:
Global warming has not occurred for ten years.
The predictions of greenhouse gas theory (rate of temperature increase in the tropical troposphere) are inconsistent with observations.
AGW fails on all fronts.
That's my only complaint. It's the best original essay that I've read on this forum. You got great timing too in this winter of our discontent. Keep up the great work. I'm pinging everyone on my lists.
thanks
Click on POGW graphic for full GW rundown
Ping me if you find one I've missed.
This article is a good illustration of how when one uses only a couple of so-called ‘truths’ to prove a larger point.....and those ‘truths’ are not substantiated in themselves, then the larger point is obviously, moot! Talk about ‘Inconvenient Truth’!!!! (Reminds me of the Big Pharma companies and much of their so-called research....;)
everyone should read that
That’s very good!
Need to go to the link to see the diagrams.
Now don't be miserly......we have to make sure we send them with the spoons they'll need to get the job done!
An excellent and concise explanation of the falacies of AGW. Outstanding.
thanks for the ping.
Bookmarked
Great work !
Thanks
Consider yourself *highly* commended, sir!
Cheers!
Thanks for the ping!
The problem that I have is that the global warming alarmists have a slightly different take on the basic assumptions.
I will take the liberty of rephrasing your assumptions, the way they see it.
Fact:
Greenhouse gasses cause the atmospheric temperature to be higher than atmospheres without them.
Higher concentrations of Greenhouse gasses cause higher temperatures.
CO2 is a greenhouse gas.
Fact: Since the beginning of the industrial age,
1. human activity has produced large amounts of CO2
2. atmospheric levels of CO2 have been increasing.
3. global temperatures (on average) have been rising.
The concept is no more difficult or complex than putting on a coat. It is not a scientific theory per se, any more than there is a scientific theory that we exist. It is simply a fact to them.
It is very hard to reason them out of a position that seems so obvious.
