Hey, I can't help myself. I see stuff like this I have to post it. From "The WEakly" no less.. ;-]

Blame Global Varming. Jaaa.

[NormsRevenge]

actually , this piece is from The Week. ap’s ugly little cuzzin.

[Secret Agent Man]

Since there is no global warming since 1992 or so, what they’re saying is that NOTHING made Sandy worse.

[a fool in paradise]

Well see, then MAN is to blame because in the 1970s we were headed for a new Ice Age and we took steps to avoid that and WHOA Nelly, WE OVERCORRECTED!!! Man’s fault. Clearly.

[wrencher]

The DOE was created to achieve energy independence, not work on weather issues. The link between this weather event and energy independence is tenuous at best. The DOE has failed at their mission and the agency should be sunset out of existence.

[Forgotten Amendments]

Global Warming caused the full moon? Wow.

[Timber Rattler]

Ridiculous assertion. Did global warming contribute to the powerful Galveston hurricane of 1900, or the 1938 New England hurricane, which was far worse than Sandy?

Or how about the Great Hurricane of 1780 that killed 22,000 people with winds of over 200 mph?

[PATRIOT1876]

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

They actually expect people to STILL believe this stuff?!?!

Maybe I'll go into the business of manufacturing cans of “Okee Doke”

[Zathras]

Like clockwork...Obummer gives a speech on his latest nonsense and 2-3 weeks later, the MSM starts pushing it.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I guess the hidden nugget is this came from the Energy Dept. Probably because no one at the National Weather Service wanted to trash their future career reputations for this.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Hurricane strength is partially a function of the difference between air temperature and ocean temperature... the colder the ocean, the stronger the hurricane.

Global warming would make the oceans warmer, leading to weaker hurricanes.

[alancarp]

Great list of everything anybody needs to refute any global warming argument... which is all being completely ignored by the agenda makers: http://icecap.us/index.php/go/joes-blog/just_the_facts_maam1/

[cripplecreek]

Hell the DOE can’t handle the job their tasked with, now they want to swerve into the other lane?

[wolfpat]

Until I hear one of these supposed scientists including the work of Edward Lorenz, strange attractors, and resonances in their computer models, they’re more like snake oil salesmen than they are scientists.

[Jim Scott]

The left treats global warming, er, climate change (an amorphous term) like a dog with a bone. Despite scientific evidence that disproves it and the fraud that was uncovered in the supposed scientific 'studies' on global warming they simply ignore all that and pretend that we're all gonna die because we drive SUV's and like our homes warm in the winter.

We know the 'climate change' scam is intended to justify huge new taxes and to cripple the oil and coal industries, who are a target of the left. That the Obama administration remains oblivious to the fact that there is no demonstrable 'global warming' yet puts out these 'sky is falling' releases shows us the utter contempt these people have for us. Well, as far as I'm concerned, that contempt is mutual.

1938 New England hurricane
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_England_Hurricane_of_1938

The storm formed near the coast of Africa in September of the 1938 Atlantic hurricane season, becoming a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale before making landfall as a Category 3 hurricane on Long Island on September 21.

1821 Norfolk and Long Island Hurricane
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1821_Norfolk_and_Long_Island_hurricane

As it approached the United States coastline, the hurricane was very intense, with winds estimated at over 135 mph (215 km/h) and potentially as strong as 160 mph (260 km/h), or a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson Hurricane Scale.

[TigersEye]

Even though the planet has been cooler for the last 15 years.
Wow! that Glowbull Warming is powerful.

[beethovenfan]

No respectable climate scientist would make such an assertion.

[Iron Munro]

They are confused. We are actually in a cool period.
