Welcome to the world of designer disasters. The rich leading the poor to slaughter, at the cost of wisdom and viable issues. It's all about the money for the wealthy (how much they can scam), and the level of psychosis they can impart on their prey.

psy·cho·sis
A severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.

AGW Psychosis is a disease, and should be treated just as alcoholism and drug abuse are.

Wow... unbelievable! I guess inference doesn't count. Arguing against something, generally means you are supporting the opposite view.

Leftists sure are a-skeerd of discussion of most subjects.

These folks make up data like my mother used to make Christmas cookies. That's why Al (man-bear-pig) Gore has been MIA for a long time. I'm sure he doesn't give a rats a$$ though. He made his millions off the moonbats and looney environmental wackos.
Gore is a billionaire off this scam. He defines the term 'grifter'.

The whole scam is nothing but a welfare program for environmentalists and academics. It enriched them beyond their wildest dreams.

Okay. Just one question. Was the ocean not there in the 80s and 90s, or am I missing something? Wouldn’t it have acted as a heat sink then as well? They apparently have an answer for that as well: deep ocean temperatures have continued to increase in the last ten or so years, even though surface temperatures have remained fairly steady. But no word on why they weren’t sucking up all the surface heat in the 80s and 90s? I don’t get it. Why is an increase in deep ocean heat correlative to a hiatus of surface temperature increases?

Thing is, they can't find this heat in the deep ocean to account for their hypothesis.

Funny, considering that those both are talking point rebuttals for activists.

1. Call them a denier, creating a nifty euphemism to suggest they are objecting to science while at the same time labeling them as a Nazi sympathizer.

2. Imply they are being "paid" by the oil companies, so naturally everything they say is a lie designed to benefit their position.

Personally, If I were to bet, I would say you guys are projecting.

They're still hyping it only nobody's listening anymore. Fads tend to come and go and other more pressing issues crop up and deserve attention. Fracking, GMO, the economy, immigration, gun control run amok, federal government abuse and spying and overall incompetence.. Then you have diversionary issues that really don't impact anybody but get a lot of press. Gay marriage, racism, food and obesity.
Personally I think global warming jumped the shark when they predicted massive hurricanes and then hurricanes quited down. They just don't have a consensus and lack the scientific proof so its still up for debate.

If we could only put the rest of the leftist insanity on pause with it what a wonderful world it would be.

Or when they predicted accelerating arctic ice loss to ice free.
Or when they predicted increased tornadic events.
Or when they predicted accelerating sea level rise.
Or when they predicted millions of refugees due to climate change.
Or when they predicted increases in devastating weather events over norm.
Or when they predicted snow would be a thing of the past.
Or when they predicted that polar bears would be extinct.
etc... etc... etc...

They did a lot of predicting... though forgot about the observational occurrence part.
