Not to anyone that realizes Bloomberg is a liberal nutcase... He even makes Rudi look conservative...

Mayor Bloomberg’s certainly got a point.

After all, there were no hurricanes before grant-happy scientists invented Global Warming, and Obama - who’s already walked on water and fed the masses with three fish and a loaf of bread - will guide us all to the Promised Land where there is no Global Warming.

You can get anything you want at the government handout window, because everything can be blamed on ‘Climate Change’.

Too cold? Here’s a blanket.

Too hot? Here’s your government A/C.

Too wet? Here’s your government umbrella.

Climate Change solves all problems of government!

Bloomberg is mentally deranged. His crusades against soft drinks and baby formula scream that he is getting senile.

Not to mention the $6 billion check that's coming for "relief"...

Such camaraderie among fellow dictators is a rare thing.

Kind of warms the cockles of my butt cheeks.

Mary Poppins Doomberg is a loony nanny. If it ain’t salt shakers, it’s “Big Gulps”. If it ain’t “Big Gulps”, it’s “global warming”. The boy needs to lighten up and practice dropping the ball for New Year’s Eve. He has too much time on his hands that he’s using to be a pain in the *** to the normal people who work for a living and just want to be left alone.

Every hurricane is terrible to the people that it hits. Hurricane Sandy was no different from any other hurricane in that respect.

By historical standards, Hurricane Sandy was a relatively minor hurricane (Category 1 when it made landfall). What made it so damaging was where it made landfall - a very high population area with a high density of oceanfront development.

It has been over seven years since a Category 3 or greater hurricane has made landfall in the U.S. This is the longest period of no major hurricanes since we began measuring them.

We are constantly told that the past 10 years of mild summers and hard winters is not evidence against Global Warming. We are also told that the seven year stretch with no major hurricanes is also not evidence against Global Warming. The fact that every Global Warming model ten years ago predicted annual increases in warming and annual increases in the rate and intensity of hurricanes is irrelevant.

And yet, every time there is a hurricane or any other extreme weather event (which we naturally have all the time somewhere in the world) it is immediately proclaimed as yet more proof of Global Warming.

It is almost certain that the next seven years will have more severe hurricanes than the last seven. It is simply the law of averages. It is also certain that every hurricane will be proclaimed as proof of Global Warming. It is simply the law of Global Warming politics.
