It will be interesting to see how accurate AGW denier Roger Pielke Jr's computer modeling is...
He's an idiot because he does not support alarmist scenarios. Though he is a well published PhD and a climate scientist

You sound like a jackass when you make such comment. And exactly what computer modeling is this "denier" (he isn't) supposedly using?

Congressional testimony. Are you sure he is a denier?

It is misleading, and just plain incorrect, to claim that disasters associated with hurricanes, tornadoes, floods or droughts have increased on climate timescales either in the United States or globally....Roger Pielke jr.......Yeah right.
Hurricanes, droughts, tornadoes, and floods have not increased no matter how much you want to believe otherwise.



Been there done that with you.



Droughts haven't increased (published in Nature this past May)



Most tornado prone country on earth not seeing a rise in violent storms






Global hurricane energy down




No change in frequency in tropical storms




But but but, the oceans are warmer now!

You are really irritating the AGW alarmists with your facts. They don't like facts. They prefer speculation models.

Effects that scientists had predicted in the past would result from global climate change are now occurring: loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves.

John Coleman has not published peer-reviewed research on climate change.
He has written numerous newspaper and blog articles skeptical of global warming.

So is this your best effort?

In other news, China just discovered a monster coal field.... Gee I wonder what the Chinese government will do with all that coal? Could it be to provide cheap reliable electricity?

It doesn't require a Ph.D. in meteorology to notice that the Earth's climate is changing. I am not liberal and even I can admit that there is some crazy S. going on. Now whether or not humans are the main cause is debatable, but something is definitely changing. Without a stable Earth... securing the borders doesn't really matter.

Is this your best effort? More insults about being a "flat-earther" if you disagree with the AGW dogma?
You keep mentioning the peer review process yet that has been shown to be politicized and corrupt time and time again.

Nobel Prize winner calls peer review “very distorted,” “completely corrupt,” and “simply a regression to the mean” I think peer review is hindering science. In fact, I think it has become a completely corrupt system. It’s corrupt in many ways, in that scientists and academics have handed over to the editors of these journals the ability to make judgment on science and scientists."
Nobel Prize winner calls peer review “very distorted,” “completely corrupt,” and “simply a regression to the mean” | Retraction Watch

“We need to get away from the notion, proven wrong on a daily basis, that peer review of any kind at any journal means that a work of science is correct. What it means is that a few (1-4) people read it over and didn’t see any major problems. That’s a very low bar in even the best of circumstances.”
Wall Street Journal op-ed:

"I can't see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep
them out somehow – even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!"
