In 1650 I bet King Louis XIV blamed the “little ice age” on Global climate change.

I have just noticed we had two more minutes of daylight today than yesterday. Darn global warming.

And if the effect keeps increasing at this rate, we'll be having 24 hours of daylight by December.

IOW, this has happened before, but this time it's because of global warming.

Come January, 2009 we are likely to have a government that embraces the global warming threat and that will be eager to enact comprehensive legislation to combat it. And we will have a president who will gladly sign off on anything passed. And this same president and congress will nominate and confirm judges who will affirm the constitutionality of anything they pass.

Come next January we are likely to become witnesses to the de facto end of the American experiment. The outward form may persist but the heart will have been torn out of it and replaced by - what? People will vote for change and they will get their wish. May God help us.

You know, these people are slippery - They bring up a topic and before you can refute it they introduce a new one.

the Hole in the Ozone appears to have returned to normal. Anybody hear about that front page News?

I guess now that Ozone hole is back to the right size we can forget about all this global warming poop. Right?

When someone thinks man can have any substantial effect on the climate, you need to show this photo of the earth and tell them to use some STINKIN' common sense!!

The earth is ONLY about 75% water and the other 25% MIGHT be about 1% populated.

But, YEAH... We can make an IMPACT! Change those lightbulbs people!!

anyone notice with a world wide record of total failure, socialism and communism seems to have lost it’s allure or appeal to many young secularists. Despite this, the left’s crazy compulsion for a kind of cosmic justice remains largely unfilled. It makes sense that it was only a matter of time before a new “religion” for the left stepped to take it’s place..

How do they keep getting away with this nonsense?

Expert after expert has tried to debunk man-made global warming, but the press continues to print the most ridiculous articles supporting it.
