It's really disturbing how much influence these people who think the weather out their back door reflects global trends have on global policy.

I mean, they really don't understand the most basic concepts, and yet are the first to rant and rave about it and, in turn, influence policy decisions.

Really disturbing.

My wife and I are both working, and are getting ahead, so therefore the economy is doing great. See how easy that was?

Yikes this hardly supports the global warmning view.

"“You can’t distinguish rising CO2 from natural variability,” Morano said in a telephone interview from Washington. “To sit there and say that CO2 is the sole driving factor as Al Gore and many others have tried to do is no longer scientifically tenable.”"

"The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2007 said the global average temperature rose by 0.76 degrees Celsius (1.37 degrees Fahrenheit) from 1850 to 2005."

And this was with data manipulation, who knows what the actual rise really was.

Sure she has, she knows Baby Bubba Obama wants to make everything global, even the weather.

Maybe he can come up with a way to send global heating to all those homeless people he has created in the last year, you know those who have lost their jobs and homes in record numbers.

Question for the believers? Do you still believe Al Gore or not?

While climate change is obviously far more complex than the far left or right make it out to be, .76 degree Celcius increase is HUGE.

Scientists have said all along that a 1 degree Celcius overall increase would mean massive changes.
