I don’t know...this is all a pain in the butt, having to constantly fight against these moonbats who believe in this AGW crap, but...it is almost worth it to know it causes them mental anguish.

“People are gonna panic.There’s gonna be gold riots, atonal music... political chaos, mass suicide. Right? It’s Germany before Hitler. You can see that. Jesus, I don’t know what people are gonna do... when a six-pack of Budweisers costs $1,200. That’ll be awful.”
“The In Laws”. Watch for the atonal music. Then it will be really bad.

"...Mother Nature, who we think of as our nurturing force..."

And people on the left disagree and ridicule us when we point out that this is not science to them, but religion.

One thing I learned about Polar Bears on melting ice flows is that they can swim 60 to 100 miles!

These pictures are always facing out to sea. Maybe the bear need only to swim 10 feet to safety.

The bear looks very COLD. Someone get him/her a blanket!

Global Warming - the only field of science that has its own mental disease.

Heh, just joking, wasn’t Keith Ellison the one who recently was talking about the Nazis attacking Pearl Harbor?

I am having an extreme weather event here in Central NH. The four feet of snow in my yard is down to two feet, my heating bill is pointed South, thank God for Al Gore.

My only fear is a March Lion and a blizzard of 98. If this happens I am going to buy a Chac Mol and sacrifice him in the Aztec Fashion.

I knew right away that these people were clueless when all the models held the sun output as a constant. Keeping the most sensitive item a constant and applying all change to CO2 is modeling heresy. Since the theory is entirely based on modeling; the fact that none of the models have matched empirical evidence (even the manipulated data) renders the theory a bust.

What depleted farmland? Agricultural production has never been higher world wide. I stopped reading right there.

Life is hard.

It’s even harder if you’re a whinging snowflake, who becomes emotionally ‘triggered’ by every word or thought that isn’t in perfect alignment with your delicate, utopian worldview.

I swear, it is insanity. I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but these people are absolute butter knives with the edges ground down flat, and...they have power over us!

According to Jerry Brown, all the newspapers, and 97% of scientists, there will never be any rain in California ever again. According to an article I read last year.

My personal opinion - living n Minnesota for all my life - usually about this time of year I begin a sort of mini-depression due to cabin fever. The long cold weather is still lingering into March and gray skies reign supreme.

But —— But, not this year. I am supremely happy that we are nearing March and the weather has been quite pleasant so far. The way I see it, only the ice fishermen are unhappy with our mild winter this year.

And as for global warming it is delighting me and our fuel bills are going down. I would think the alarmists about AGW would cheer that our use of carbon based fuels is lower this winter. So, perhaps the depression they are having is that no one else is depressed.
