On every blog and relevant news story you see. The MSM is so far wrong on the Global Warming issue, its an embarrassment.

Yep. If the earth were going to go through an uncontrolled green house temperature, it would have done so a few billion years ago. 71% of the earth is water, and all the green house gas needed is right there in the Oceans. The Earth clearly has not gone through an uncontrolled green house event, as is demonstrated by the simple fact we still have an atmosphere!

But the tin-foil hat wearing greenies aren’t interested in the truth, they are interested in power.

So lets take it from them eh? :)

“The Enron boys had the carbon credit scam down way before Wall St and Goldman Suchs figured out that you could con people into buying air which cost nothing and results in 100% profit”

Interesting connections. I first came across an inkling of the same when learning a little about credit default swaps. The linkage was between highly educated math majors (in this case Cambridge and MIT women) who had cut their teeth in the financial world in credit trading schemes for oxides of sulphur and nitrogen post acid rain. Refinements of this experience were sold (albeit reluctantly as the story was told) to JP Morgan Chase as a means to enhance liquidity by shifting risk (on the books) to CDS’s, which essentially became a betting game, which we now know was a risky one indeed.

This only further demonstrates the success of the Cash for Clunkers program. Apparently, destroying working vehicles and giving away more taxpayer money which has been collected yet worked so well that it seems to have produced retroactive climate stability.

In other words, the AlGorist analysis of this information will result in a new chart that displays a positive relationship between increased deficit spending and decreased global temperatures.

PING.
The science is settled.
Global warming is not a crisis, the models are wrong, and CO2 is not harmful.

Yep... but the liberals are holding onto it like a man overboard to a life ring... what will the DO with out their GREEN Mantra? It was all based on the need to take care of the planet, and now the planet is fine... where is that crying Hillary girl? “Leave Hillary ALONE” youtube girl... you know... “LEAVE WARMERS ALONE!!”

Yea, poor buggers, they are going to have to start all over from scratch again, make up some new cause... like “SAVE THE SUGAR ANTS!” or “Save the Lolly pop sticks! They have feelings too!!!”

I almost feel sorry for them. Ok I lied I don’t feel sorry for them in the least.

When I was in the Navy one of my buddies had a saying,”The only thing constant here is the rate of change and even that has been known to vary.”

In math class they teach kids distance = rate X time. That rate is speed (or velocity if direction is included). But acceleration is a rate, as well. As is the rate of change of acceleration. In fact there are all kinds of rates in science and engineering that are not speed. Such as degrees per century. ;-)

Be careful with old Dr. Pepper.

Under Obamacare, that simple freedom you enjoy today will count as both a visit to a specialist and as 12oz (monthly ration) of medicine - not to mention an unnecessary release of CO2.

And spitting him out on the keyboard, according to page #823 of the house bill, is considered a rude request for a second opinion and will not sit well with the death panel.

I’d report this incident to WhiteHouse.gov, but I don’t want to admit any involvement with you for fear of being deemed “obsolete” myself as in the old Twilight Zone episode where Burgess Meredith appeared before an Obama-like death panel. When hard core Obamites describe “end-of-life counseling”, it sounds suspiciously similar to what Burgess went through. The gov’t was very compassionate on the show - it generously let him choose his mode of death.

When my turn comes, I hope to go out with style like Burgess. Instead of flailing and begging for mercy at his televised execution as they had hoped, he died while calmly reading his long since banned book - the Bible.
