It's a good time to be a polar bear. Unusually cool temperatures in the northern climes last winter produced thicker-than-usual polar ice. This gave the lucky bears an extra two weeks to roam the ice floes to hunt ringed seals. As a result, adult bears are better fed and more cubs are surviving their first year. The bears will go into the winter with greater energy stores, which will mean a better chance of survival and even more cubs.

The global-warming religion is highly resistant to facts. This came home to us recently when Sen. Debbie Stabenow, Michigan Democrat, told the Detroit News that global warming is increasing "volatility" in the atmosphere. "I feel it when I'm flying," she claimed. "We are paying the price in more hurricanes and tornadoes." The notion that Mrs. Stabenow can sense climate volatility while jetting about is risible, but the fact that she serves on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and is a leading proponent of the job-killing, growth-destroying cap-and-trade legislation is no laughing matter.
Compare the senator's sensory perception to hard data. In the past three years, the number of hurricanes has fallen dramatically, and tropical-cyclone activity is at one of the lowest points in the last 50 years. We hope that facts such as thickening Arctic ice and decreasing climate volatility can overcome the almost mystical attachment some politicians have to global-warming orthodoxy.

Debbie and her ilk conveniently forget those kind of facts when it doesn’t fit their agenda, it’s really frustrating that many don’t see these people for what they are.
LOL! A real head case. Sounds like she knew what you thinking because it was true that she was a head case and knew it.
What a person has to realize is that global warming is much like heath care,it isn’t about global warming, it is about controlling the populace and stealing money from the taxpayer.
Don’t confuse me with facts, my mind is made up!!
What's dba Obama got his thermostat set at in the multimillion-dollar castle on Martha's Vineyard.
You've got THAT right!
But he IS still an elitist / statist / hypocrite!!!

The article indicates the educational and intelligence level of some (if not most) of our elected representatives.
And she's a Senator??? Forget the citizenship requirement, there needs to be a minimum IQ and Knowledge requirement to be a Senator. Poor lil' Debbie is an imbecile.
Good ‘toon’ Meek, that’s just how HE lives!
Both your toons are good ones and most appropriate, Gore is a real hypocrite.
Thank you jazusamo.
LOL!
Dat’s algore alrighty !!!
Sometimes the old blind hog finds an acorn now and then.

Those (#*&^$%$% polar bears are nothing but paid shills for big oil. It’s so obvious, only a fundamentalist Republican nutbag could miss it. Every one of them, I’ll bet, has a big fat bank account and consultancy agreement with Royal Dutch Petroleum and Exxon with the proceeds deposited in some offshore bank. Their nondisclosure agreements are ironclad, that’s why none of them will talk. Every Thursday, Sarah Palin threatens their children with Down’s syndrome by waving Trig out of a helicopter on fly-bys paid for by Conoco executives who hate government health care and then the polar bear cubs won’t be able to use any of the library books Palin’s already pulled from the shelves from her little base of operations in Wasilla.
LOL!
If it were only that simple. :-)
