Global warming, bigfoots arming and gathering in the hills, right wing operatives disrupting health care townhall meetings, the saucer people bringing the dead back as zombie slaves, whats the next conspiracy? Take off your aluminum foil helmets, turn off MSNBC and the radio signals won't hurt you.

would you prefer to read Faux's edit of the Times article? It's shorter and dumber.

I think the loons are on their way to the psycho wards. What world or planet are they living on anyway.

They watch to much of the weirdo girl Maddox, liar Matthews and oddball Oberman because there is no way anyone with their right mind can come up with the wacko things these people come up with.

Watch the seas, they are rumbling because of Obama said the waters were going to rise. See they think he can do about anything but they kinda forgot he is just another talking mouth piece that is all show and no go.

Boy did they get fooled.

Even if global warming is real, it will affect all Navy's the same... their ships will continue to float but their current docks may be underwater. IMO, a much more real threat to National Security is our dependence on foreign oil, which the head of NSA has long since called a threat to us.

A thought; there are several large areas of the world that ARE below sea level, like Death Valley and IIRC a large area of Somalia and/or Ethiopia. Perhaps we could let fresh or salt water fill these basins and help keep the sea level in stasis. Imagine that, NEW waterfront property!

The liberal crazies in this administration are worried about National Security and they cannot even say the word terrorist or secure our borders but they can sure rise up to fight an ice berg.

Last time I checked, ships still floated.

Sea Level Trends

Yep it's going up, run for the hills:





Oh wait it's going down, arrgh going to have to walk a extra inch or two to the beach (note at a much faster rate that it's going up in New York):




Wait... it's going up man the lifeboats...


All that water left here, lucky for them, more beach front:




--------------------------

Joking aside I think what is important here is with these graphs and any other you might want to look at on that site you'll find a steady increase or decrease in the levels. However the media will report it like this, thank you harry chickpea for pointing this out. This image was shown on the nightly news:

You can trust what you read from any media outlet as much as you can trust that a crack addict wouldn't rob you blind if left to themselves. The "news" media is no longer news but an entertainment industry and a biased one at that.
