One of the biggest scams and hoaxes in all of human history! Liberals love to lie constantly; this is just another example. Which of their gloom and doom, anti-human development predictions have ever come true?

Malthus and overpopulation, we'll run out of food
Gore and global warming
The "peak oil" wackos

Every one of these scare tactics- completely wrong.

Yes... The Climate Change Alarmists spent years breathlessly warning us about an increase in the size and frequency of hurricanes based on Climate Change models.

Looks like the models were wrong.

Oh... so it IS Climate Change... except it's only ... over there... not here.... or here... or that other place. It's just localized to the Pacific region. So it's not really GLOBAL warming then... is it?

And you're certain El Nino has nothing to do with an increase in Pacific storms... right?

Season Approaches: U.S. Hits Record 127 Months Since Major Hurricane Strike
Why is this article political or otherwise controversial?

All it said is that we're in a record drought of major hurricanes striking the U.S. in the past 10 years. The only thing it's possibly warning against is complacency. Also, how global climate change is going to affect hurricane development is still an area of research: while warmer water temperatures may increase the likelihood and intensity of storms, it may also increase wind shear and decrease the likelihood and intensity of storms.

Which is odd, as the article he posted doesn't mention climate change.
