News is breaking out all over: global warming stopped 20 years ago.
A political earthquake has resulted from a feature story in the Economist magazine because the Economist used to be a consistent cheerleader for global warming activism. Doubts about global warming used to be censored by its London editors, one reporter confided to Stephen Hayward.
So what will voters do to Democrat candidates in 2014 and 2016 when the former realize that the Democratic Party was lying to them? Is it time to run away from the issue for Democrats, journalists, and Hollywood personalities?
While our economy is struggling and our nation in debt, Democrats squandered tens of billions on a climate change hoax. How many voters are unemployed due to climate change polices? Unnecessary regulations are strangling people's jobs and their lives. And then one must wonder: what else were Democrats unbelievably wrong about?
Can Democrats hide by claiming that climate change hysteria was an innocent mistake? It was never a credible story. Democrats, journalists, and liberal commentators went way out on a limb. Like the collapse of ENRON or Bernie Maddoff's Ponzi schemes, political fortunes have been built on the shifting sand of bad science. Japan's Society of Energy and Resources in February 2009 declared the myth of man-made global warming to be like "ancient astrology."

Hahahha. Me too. Weren't the 70's great?
Seriously. We are in an interglacial phase, that means we are between ice ages. Temperatures will vary but there is nothing man can do to counter the effects of the sun.
I don't think enough work has been done on the positive effects of "global warming". Northern countries will enjoy a longer growing season, for example.
Lemmings, all of them. I think they are unintelligent people only good at one thing; smiling while lying. Whatever way the winds blow, the Republican establishment will follow.
Democrates and liberals are NOT interested in facts. They do not make fact based decisions. They make decision based on how they “feel” about something.
Plus it is way more important who won Dancing with the Stars and American Idol. After all they elected Taylor Hicks as POTUS.
(in other words, they KNEW all along it was a hoax! but they used that to get the changes they wanted.)
or, simply put.
The means, justify the ends.
Never underestimate the continued gullibility of the low information voter especially when they have been fed this global warming BS for decades by the media and in our schools. The global warming cultists have shifted gears and now call it “climate change” and use the same old man caused increases in CO2 in the atmosphere to explain everything including now global cooling.
Humanity crossed from superstition to the scientific era when Sir Francis Bacon publicized "The Scientific Method." This requires hard data from controlled experiments, which are independently repeated. But we now have "science by press release." Political activists calling themselves scientists offer raw opinion and speculation. And now Western civilization is in deep trouble. We are sinking back into superstition, in which elite priests tell us what to think.
I’ve already seen it. The internet led to more people reading online instead of cutting down trees to make newspapers and books. More trees = fewer green house gases in the air = less warming than expected.
The internet saved the planet, in their opinion and explains the lack of global warming since it took off.
