The Climate Snow Job
Wall Street Journal ^ | Jan. 24, 2016 | Patrick J. Michaels

Posted on 01/25/2016 6:12:45 AM PST by artichokegrower

An East Coast blizzard howling, global temperatures peaking, the desert Southwest flooding, drought-stricken California drying up—surely there’s a common thread tying together this “extreme” weather. There is. But it has little to do with what recent headlines have been saying about the hottest year ever. It is called business as usual.

Statists picked a winner when they grabbed the climate change theme. There’s always changing and severe weather someplace on the planet.

The typical millenial knows far more about “climate change” than the US Constitution.

Whenever bad weather strikes, no matter what the weather event may be, it is ALWAYS caused by Global Climate Change.

That’s EXACTLY why it snowed. God loves making a fool out of Algore.

Congress Shall Make no Law Respecting an Establishment of Religion. This is known as the Establishment Clause. When the government has been taken over by the mystical adherents of a non-rational, unscientific belief system ultimately stemming from an attitude that we as human beings have no right to exist, that we are a cancer upon the body of Mother Gaia, the Establishment Clause is being violated by the reigning government. Thos. Jefferson, who cut out pieces of his bible with which he disagreed, wrote about the “separation of church and state” to the Danbury Baptists in 1802, long after the Constitution and the Bill of Rights had been completed. Most people in this dark age think that is the constitutional basis for church state policy.

How DARE you criticize the Church of Global Climate Change?

Heretics should be burned at the stake, but that would cause further global warming, so you will have to be sentenced to a reeducation camp instead.

When I was a kid, we called “climate change”, THE WEATHER. We didn’t name snowstorms either.

Remember now, the Prophet Algore (peace be upon him) warned us that Global Warming could cause planetary cooling, now didn’t he? (You just have to be a Liberal to understand the concept)

Very good, perspective and summary. Although seemingly far-fetched to tie it to the establishment clause, it’s in the spirit of it.

They can’t call it Global Warming or Global Cooling. I think they should label it ‘Global Something’ and be done with it!

Everything’s about entertainment now, from weather (24/7/365) to politics.

“The typical millenial knows far more about “climate change” than the US Constitution.”

Sadly, I think you’re right. This climate change nonsense has been a study in propaganda for me. Young people really believe that an oppressively hot summer day is a new phenomenon, signaling the end of days.

Yup. We didn’t “hunker down” in a corner in the house hoping we survived ______ the Monster Snowstorm. We were outside playing in it.

I found the “media’s” week long build up to Jonas the Monster Snowstorm rather hilarious.
