Comments About Global Warming (by John Coleman, founder of The Weather Channel)
ICECAP ^ | Nov 07, 2007 | John Coleman

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create in allusion of rapid global warming. Other scientists of the same environmental whacko type jumped into the circle to support and broaden the “research” to further enhance the totally slanted, bogus global warming claims. Their friends in government steered huge research grants their way to keep the movement going. Soon they claimed to be a consensus.

Environmental extremists, notable politicians among them, then teamed up with movie, media and other liberal, environmentalist journalists to create this wild “scientific” scenario of the civilization threatening environmental consequences from Global Warming unless we adhere to their radical agenda. Now their ridiculous manipulated science has been accepted as fact and become a cornerstone issue for CNN, CBS, NBC, the Democratic Political Party, the Governor of California, school teachers and, in many cases, well informed but very gullible environmental conscientious citizens. Only one reporter at ABC has been allowed to counter the Global Warming frenzy with one 15 minutes documentary segment.

I do not oppose environmentalism. I do not oppose the political positions of either party. However, Global Warming, ie Climate Change, is not about environmentalism or politics. It is not a religion. It is not something you “believe in.” It is science; the science of meteorology. This is my field of life-long expertise. And I am telling you Global Warming is a non-event, a manufactured crisis and a total scam. I say this knowing you probably won’t believe a me, a mere TV weatherman, challenging a Nobel Prize, Academy Award and Emmy Award winning former Vice President of United States. So be it.

I have read dozens of scientific papers. I have talked with numerous scientists. I have studied. I have thought about it. I know I am correct. There is no run away climate change. The impact of humans on climate is not catastrophic. Our planet is not in peril. I am incensed by the incredible media glamour, the politically correct silliness and rude dismissal of counter arguments by the high priest of Global Warming.

In time, a decade or two, the outrageous scam will be obvious. As the temperature rises, polar ice cap melting, coastal flooding and super storm pattern all fail to occur as predicted everyone will come to realize we have been duped. The sky is not falling. And, natural cycles and drifts in climate are as much if not more responsible for any climate changes underway. I strongly believe that the next twenty years are equally as likely to see a cooling trend as they are to see a warming trend.

Notice how Gore just casually dismisses anyone or anything that contradicts his “facts” about globull warming?
Oh, he’s just and outlier, or they are just this or that? He never responds to the data presented. He never concedes that he might have some things wrong. He ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT debate ANYONE on the subject. Just that smirk of condescension and arrogance and a wave of the hand like everybody else is a moron except him.

These scientists are people that have half the alphabet after their names and have studied and actually worked in the fields of which the speak.

All Gore has after his name is former senator, VP, sore loser Prez candidate, Academy Award and a Nobel Prize, none of which has anything to do with science or even institutes of higher learning.

How the whole world can fall for this guy’s scam is beyond me. Everywhere he goes, people just fawn all over him like he’s some messianic deliverer from the great beyond. He’s a buffoon and a con man. P.T. Barnum would be so proud..............

It is the greatest scam in history.

Indeed, it is, surpassing the 'acid rain' scam of a few years ago, and the 'coming ice age' scam before that. The entire goal of the global warming scam is that the liberals can find a new way to extract more money from the wallets of those that earn it and divvy it up amongs themselves.

Nonsense. Today is 5 degrees warmer than yesterday here in Palm Springs. Do the math. This trend, if man allows it to continue, will mean a 35 degree increase in a week, a 140 degree increase in a month and 1,680 degree increase in a year year. Tell me we’re not all gonna die. Good grief people, wake up.

I have this unshakable feeling that our grandchildren will be wondering what was wrong with us to get jerked around so much by these idiots.

Gotta believe you are going to be proven right. I know that I wonder why my grandparents bought into all of FDR’s stuff.

Many of them were suffering and looking for government help. Then when the war hit, they didn’t want to change horses.

I'm sorry, but there's a lot of competition for that distinction. How about communism, and some of its lesser cousins, government schools, government health care, Social Security, etc.?
