Algore won’t surrender on global warming
One of the snowiest, coldest winters in recent memory won’t deter Algore; on a recent episode of Fox News’ O’Reilly Factor, the host challenged Gore to explain the conditions. On his own Web site, Gore responded and claimed that the conditions currently burying most Americans living north of the Mason-Dixon line are proof… of global WARMING.
Here’s what he told O’Reilly, via his Web site:
“As it turns out, the scientific community has been addressing this particular question for some time now and they say that increased heavy snowfalls are completely consistent with what they have been predicting as a consequence of man-made global warming.”
After the Drudge Report posted the Chicken Little claim, the increased traffic broke Gore’s Web site, keeping it out of service for nearly two hours. Algore might be better off predicting the future of healthcare jobs.
Fidel alive and well after all
Fidel Castro made his first major public appearance in about four years, proving he’s still alive at the age of 84. He addressed thousands of students at the University of Havana, marking his return to public life since illness forced him to surrender Cuba’s presidency to his brother.
While he won’t be enjoying any Branson vacations any time soon – or ever – the old revolutionary railed against the threat of nuclear holocaust as well as the dangers of … you guessed it … global warming.
Hey… on second thought… has anyone ever seen Algore in the same room as Fidel? Maybe… just maybe…
Vostok Antarctica equals global warming death-knell?
While Algore and his zittoheads continue preaching global warming, temperatures in Vostok Antarctica have almost never been lower since records have been kept.
The latest reports have the temps at -100 Fahrenheit with windchills as low as -142. Sounds like an area that needs a lot of global warming, if you ask me!
Algore might be better suited to various admin jobs than he is to the task of being a faux environmental expert. Time to retire, Al.
Volunteers honor Gore?
The University of Tennessee waited and waited and now, with the University of East Anglia scandal and the theory of global warming all but froze over… now UT has decided to award Algore (still vastly in need of ephedra weight loss products) an honorary degree in “visionary leadership.” Huh?
Let’s see, if the 1990ish book Earth In the Balance was his Master’s thesis and An Inconvenient Truth was his doctorate thesis, and the UT is still considering awarding the former veep even an honorary degree, then one has to wonder what kind of peer-review panel actually looked over his work for accuracy and truthfulness. Maybe the thesis committee was chaired by Michael Moore?
All I can say to all you young high school seniors considering where to go for higher education is: stay far away from the University of Tennessee. With degrees being handed out this freely and irresponsibly, you’ll soon be able to pick one up in the Wal-Mart toiletry aisle for $1.95. Save over $50,000 in student loans!
Companies pulling out of cap-n-trade partnership
Like the best hemorrhoid treatments do to hemorrhoids, market forces appear to finally be forcing global warming measures to the sidelines where they belong. Word is that several companies have pulled out of the US Climate Action Partnership; the latest to jump off are BP, ConocoPhillips and Caterpiller, though they are not alone.
The USCAP existed to help government and business to cooperate on shepherding emission cap legislation… including the notorious “cap and trade” bill… through Congress and into law. Less then a year ago, the measure seemed to be coasting toward approval, but now with a souring economy, more and more companies are not anxious to enact measures that may have minimal environmental impact while skyrocketing the price of goods and services.
Said ConocoPhillips’ senior VP for governmental affairs Red Cavaney, “USCAP was starting to do more and more on trying to get a bill out without trying to work as much on the substance of it.”
Of course, while Bill Clinton forged the path of symbolism over substance in the 1990s with his “politics of meaning,” the scam has been forged into an art by folks like Algore, his zittoheads and President Barak Obama.
Certainly, however, this distancing from global warming-inspired legislation has been helped in no small part by one of the coldest, snowiest winters in quite some time; as one GOP lawmaker recently commented, wryly, “Word is the snowstorms ain’t gonna stop until Al Gore cries uncle.”
If only…
As world freezes, Gore has head in global warming sand
Algore is nothing if not delusional. The former vice-prez is still trying to sell his global warming Kool-Aid, not only in spite of the academic fraud scandal at the University of East Anglia, but in spite of record cold temps being set even as I right this.
Iowa is reporting temperatures that are, on average, 30 degrees below normal. The East Coast is facing an almost unparalleled deep freeze, and Florida is concerned about the current orange crop harvest being spoiled by that same freeze.
Peru’s mountain people could be wiped out, according to some reports, but record low temps; Beijing, China is reporting temperatures colder than any recorded in the last 40 years.
And yet Algore still clings to his fraudulent photos of polar bears on ice cap shards and whines about the need for carbon credits? Still believe in global warming is as reliable as good kitchen faucets? What’s it gonna take, man?
Schwarzenegger embraces green politics
“Acting” California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has become everything the Democrats could hope for; the latest example is a recent blast against President Bush for not embracing Algore’s global warming mythology. He did everything to embrace the green movement but wear organic equestrian clothing.
“This administration did not believe in global warming,” Schwarzenegger told ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos in an exclusive interview that will air Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”
Exactly, Arnold. That’s because, contrary to Gore’s propeganda campaign, there is no concensus on global warming, and there are now more climate scientists, meteorologists and other scientific types signed up opposing global warming as a valid scientific conclusion as Gore claimed there was who signed on to it.
And here’s the dirty little secret of Gore’s propeganda lies: a goodly number of scientists who he claimed with on board with a “concensus on global warming,” have changed their stripes and are now part of the “no, it’s not a concensus” movement.
Hint for future reference: the way to tell if Algore, and zittohead governors like Arnold, are lying is simple… if their lips are moving, you can bank on the dishonesty spewing forth.
CO2 is not a pollutant
One of the most ridiculous claims made by Algore and his mind-numbed zittoheads is that CO2 (carbon dioxide) is a pollutant and a major source of global warming. A little market research would tell even a rather simple-minded child this assertion is false on its face. To quote Wikipedia on the subject:
Carbon dioxide is produced by all animals, plants, fungi and microorganisms during respiration and is used by plants during photosynthesis. This is to make sugars which may either be consumed again in respiration or used as the raw material for plant growth. It is, therefore, a major component of the carbon cycle.
All living organisms produce CO2 simply by exhaling. But what is waste-gas to us is food for plant life! Without CO2, plant life would perish, which includes all major food sources for organic life. This is the work of a pollutant? I think not.
CO2, it is true, can be deadly to humans in too high a concentration over a prolonged period, but it is not a pollutant. The simple fact is that each year, volcanic eruptions distribute more alleged ozone-depleting chemicals into the atmosphere than has any human activity from the time of the industrial revolution to present. To say human activity and human-caused CO2 production is the cause of global warming is naive, underinformed and outright false.
Truth is, CO2 is found most heavily in the Earth’s oceans, and through the evaporation cycle, the world’s oceans themselves pump more CO2 into the atmosphere than volcanoes, industry and cow farts combined.
Are we clear, yet?
Evidence against global warming mounts
Just as we emerge from one of the longer and colder winters in recent memory, and evidence against Al Gore’s global warming Chicken Little-ism continues to build, it appears the Bush Administration may be buckling to the pressure, just as the pressure valve is set to release.
Wearing roller shades of his eyes, if Bush enacts a global warming agenda, it would mark a severe course correction; he was the one who reversed course from the Clinton-Gore Administration, who commited the US to the Kyoto Accords just prior to leaving office, and when Bush took over, he pulled the US out of the ecomony-destroying climate treaty.
Contrary evidence is piling up every day. Vast evidence now supports the idea that global temps peaked around 1998, have held steady since, and actually dropped about a full degree this past year, meaning that the full century’s worth of creep Gore tried to claim was destroying the plant was wiped out by one cold winter.
Sunspot activity is deemed the most likely cause of global temperature changes by most traditional scientists, including the Dr. Fred Singer and Dennis T. Avery, who wrote “Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1500 Years,” and not as a result of human activity, as Algore and his zittoheads allege.
Minnesota and the upper midwest have been hit my mid-April blizzards and freezing temps, with gardening and crop-growing season starting later than it has in many years. Of course, for the zittoheads out there, there is no such thing as contrary evidence… even the coldest year on record in decades is “further proof of global warming” to those mind-numbed robots.
Global climate drops!
All the Algore zittoheads and Chicken Littles out there concerned about how CO2 emissions (it’s called breathing, folks, and it makes plants grow) are causing global climate increases can finally breath easy; according to actual climate scientists, this winter has been so cold that global temperatures have dropped by one full degree, wiping out the alleged progess of over 100 years of so-called “global warming.” Winter Park real estate has the climate it should once again!
So, let’s drop the carbon credits scam, the tax hikes and bring back the old refrigerant in our AC units that actually works; we’re back to square one, people! Take your bow, Algore; gloat away, you zittoheads. Somehow, you did it and “unstoppable” global warming has been pushed back 100 years in the mere 12 months since Algore won an Oscar.
Take the credit; just stop taking away our money in confiscatory taxes for fictional reasons. Deal? Deal!
