No doubt he thought that since we were “warming” because we were still emerging from the last Little Ice Age, he could somehow tie it to the Industrial Revolution, and concoct the perfect excuse for imposing Communism.

Growing up in the midst of the last Ice Age of the 60’s and 70’s, Global Warming has been a blessing.

Way too many gullible idiots bought into it, and found it to be a real moneymaker.

The Great Lakes were under glaciers 5-10 miles thick, and Greenland wasn’t named that because it was under snow.

"..“He wasn’t fooled by the cooling of the 1970s..”Yeah, that's what they were honking about when I was in school back then. We were all s'posed to die in a big freeze-out because of some BS.
Neaten this guy up a bit, plop him inna goose-stepper uniform and he'd look like that evil kraut in the first Indiana Jones movie.
Why do lefties always look like NAZI's I wonder? Hehehe. d;^)
