Before Hurricane Irene made landfall, environmental extremists were spouting off three certainties about the storm: It is catastrophic; it was caused by global warming; and it is all President Obama’s fault.
On Thursday, climate alarmist Bill McKibben wrote, “Irene’s got a middle name, and it’s Global Warming.” ...

The past few years have seen significant body blows to the global warming theory, including major revelations of altered, misused or just plain fraudulent data, undue financial interests and appearances of impropriety among climate scientists, and contrived “carbon markets” closely tied to global warming alarmists who stood to make millions of dollars from government-mandated regulations like the now defunct “cap-and-trade” scheme. The Earth stopped warming 10 years ago. A July 2011 NASA study found that carbon dioxide traps far less heat than warmist computer models assume, and that “there is a huge discrepancy between the data and the forecasts that is especially big over the oceans.”
The American people in their wisdom have begun to tune out the climate-change noise. Global warming ranked last on a March 2011 Gallup poll of the environmental concerns of Americans. In an open-ended June 2011 CBS News/New York Times poll asking what Americans think is “the most important problem facing this country today,” the environment did not even make the list.
Hard-core enviros blame Mr. Obama for failing to lead on this issue. Despite pushing through the most radical pro-green regulatory framework in history, liberals say he hasn’t done enough and Irene is his punishment. No matter, the storm won’t be a total write-off for the left. The White House will at least have another natural disaster to blame for America’s economic woes.

Michelle is Obama’s punishment.
I thought the earthquake was Obama’s punishment.
On the OTHER hand, BOTH of them COULD be OUR punishment because we elected him and haven’t IMPEACHED his sorry butt yet.
Obama is our punishment.
Biden is Obama’s punishment too.
Obama must be VERY BAD to deserve all this punishment.
Are his chickens coming home to roost?
No. We're going to kick this guy to the curb.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Obama wants to blame all his punishment on Dubya.
I’ve heard, “If you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.”
Time for Obama to exit the kitchen and let a real cook take over.
Zing!!!
LOL! Almost makes you feel sorry for the schlub, huh?
He’s still trying to cook-up a come-back.
Right now, our best shot is Perry.
It will be fun to watch as the country tells Perry, “Hit him again! Hit him again! Harder! Harder!” [his Aggie Yell leadership skills won’t be wasted]
The MSM will go nuts and the people will cheer Perry on.
Irene probably fits right into his plan to destroy the country. But we’ll see if he can stand the pressure that’s going to hit him when the storm is gone. One thing for sure, he doesn’t like pressure. Keep it on.
Hope so.
Does he have a website for contributions yet?
The Left loves milking disasters (Katrina, Gulf oil spill, Japan’s nuclear-tsunami tragedy).
People have had it with these charlatans.
Obama is going to be squeezed by AGW useful idiots on the Left and by pro-American exceptionalism advocates on the Right yelling, “get the hell out of President Perry’s house!”
Thanks for that link!!!
And the way things stand right now that "cook" would be Joe "Plugs" Biden! Be careful what you wish for...
Regards,
GtG
Biden goes too!
LOL
