I sure could use some of that global warming right now - it’s gettin down right chilly outside right now.

[rarestia]

*sigh* These idiots don’t get it. They just don’t get it.

[Darksheare]

Gee.. considering most of the data has been faked....

[colorado tanker]

I wonder if any of these geniuses will even ask the question, does this show us that CO2 concentrations don't drive global temps???

[GingisK]

Someone should refer them to: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2390828/posts

and its references.

Is it sunspots? Ocean currents? Secret volcano?

It's sunspots, or rather the lack of them for a long period of time.

In the chart below, when 2009 is said and done, it will take its rightful place AHEAD of 2008.

[Seruzawa]

Temperatures haven’t “stopped rising”. They have gone down. Even here the GW fanatics have to engage in half-truths.

[El Gato]

There are two sunspots visible on the face of the sun. More than in the very recent past. The Sun may be waking up.

"Climatologist Stefan Rahmstorf is so convinced that his predictions will be correct in the end that he is willing to back up his conviction with a €2,500 ($3,700) bet. "I will win," says Rahmstorf.

His adversary Latif turned down the bet, saying that the matter was too serious for gambling. "We are scientists, not poker players."

It's so much better to gamble with O.P.M. -- trillions and trillions of dollars worth. These "scientists" should be willing to back up their "predictions" with serious cash.

It's interesting that Salon.com chooses to run this on the very day the hacked climate scam emails made news.

Can you say 'cover'? I knew you could.

OH NO, Mr. Bill...if this hoax, er, theory collapses, algore will be put back into his room at bellevue to weave baskets. I don't know if he can take losing the white house and his favorite ruse all in one decade.

Well, al baby...all good things must come to an end, they say, But surely you have amassed a large enough fortune to make it the rest of your days...I mean, if you cut down on your energy use at your large home, and your corporate jet travel. Hell, that alone should lower the temperature another degree or two.

Of course, if you and your warming CULT need a place to meet and greet I hear both the old Jim Jones land is available, as well as the branch davidians strong hold in Waco. I mean, a cult, is a cult, is a cult.

But just because one door closes for you al, baby, another door could open...we could really used someone with your tenacity to go find obama's real birth certificate.

The 2000 election, ACORN, and now this, there seems to be a pattern here.

[dead]

The earth is getting hotter!

[NormsRevenge]

Gorebalists are in severe distress.. lol

[Billthedrill]

Even though the temperature standstill probably has no effect on the long-term warming trend, it does raise doubts about the predictive value of climate models...

Were it not a political issue the thing would have retreated by now into the usual mix of modeling practice. For this purpose there are three basic levels: descriptive, predictive, normative. If you don't get the level underneath correct the one above won't work. What has happened is that the political activists have attempted to drag the thing straight to the level of normative modeling - if you want B to happen, do A, A being a global political control over industry, development, and the redistribution of wealth. Unfortunately the predictive precursor - if you do A, B will happen - isn't sound enough to support normative modeling.

And so we are in the position of, as a certain liberal friend of mine put it, "doing the right thing even if the reason is wrong," his "right thing" being control and redistribution. Questioning that is quite outside the purview of modeling. And that's why this probably isn't going away anytime soon.

Is algores’ jail cell ready yet?

[tobyhill]

This is funny, “global warming’s time-out”. It's called Winter.

[DouglasKC]

Temperatures haven't risen this decade, as climatologists expected. Is it sunspots? Ocean currents? Secret volcano?

Stupidity? Fraud? Deceit? Anti-capitalism?

[pallis]

Some “scientist” are having problems with the problems of believing in global warming. However, some “scientist,” who believe we are entering a long term cooling cycle, are wisely buying coats and property in Florida. It’s all a matter of weather, whether or not the weather is hot or cold. ...Remember, Algore is a lying, scumbag, scam artist.
