What to say to a global warming alarmist
OC Register ^ | 2010-02-12 | Mark Landsbaum

It has been tough to keep up with all the bad news for global warming alarmists. We're on the edge of our chair, waiting for the next shoe to drop. This has been an Imelda Marcos kind of season for shoe-dropping about global warming.

At your next dinner party, here are some of the latest talking points to bring up when someone reminds you that Al Gore and the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change won Nobel prizes for their work on global warming.

ClimateGate – This scandal began the latest round of revelations when thousands of leaked documents from Britain's East Anglia Climate Research Unit showed systematic suppression and discrediting of climate skeptics' views and discarding of temperature data, suggesting a bias for making the case for warming. Why do such a thing if, as global warming defenders contend, the "science is settled?"

FOIGate – The British government has since determined someone at East Anglia committed a crime by refusing to release global warming documents sought in 95 Freedom of Information Act requests. The CRU is one of three international agencies compiling global temperature data. If their stuff's so solid, why the secrecy?

ChinaGate – An investigation by the U.K.'s left-leaning Guardian newspaper found evidence that Chinese weather station measurements not only were seriously flawed, but couldn't be located. "Where exactly are 42 weather monitoring stations in remote parts of rural China?" the paper asked. The paper's investigation also couldn't find corroboration of what Chinese scientists turned over to American scientists, leaving unanswered, "how much of the warming seen in recent decades is due to the local effects of spreading cities, rather than global warming?" The Guardian contends that researchers covered up the missing data for years.

How about “keep your shirt on, it’s freezing out here” or “where did you say you got your degree in climatology?”

Do not mock the high priest of AWG. He may cause the global temperatures to rise 0.0000001 degree over the next hundred years. That will teach us. That will teach up but good.

"Chill".


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

If you are feeling warm, come over to my house. I will pile 3000 cubic feet of snow (from my sidewalk and drive) on top of you to chill you out.

The author missed the “endangered” polar bears. They can’t seem to explain why a species whose numbers have increased significantly since 1950 are endangered.

Nobody likes to look like a fool.

Millions of people in the US alone are having their heads exploding, as we speak.

Most of them are simply keeping a low profile, keeping their mouths shut, and hoping nobody remembers what gullible idiots they are.

I love it!

“Most of them are simply keeping a low profile, keeping their mouths shut, and hoping nobody remembers what gullible idiots they are”.

I you talking about people who fell for the global warming hoax specifically or are you talking about people who voted for Obama generally? :)

I’m waiting for ExtinctionGate.

That’s their claim that a million species are facing imminent extinction due to man made global warming. I just can’t wait to find out the painstaking observation and fabrication that’s behind that nice round number.

If these global warming nuts keep it up the only thing that is going to become extinct is them. .45 ACP Natural Selection.

I am waiting for the media to start calling the ultimate gate a “gate”. That is Goregate. Here is a guy who sold global warming in and outside of government so well then turned around and made millions with an investment group he cofounded that deals solely in alternative energies and green technologies. Think about it, say an ex fire commissioner used his clout to spread false rumors that not only was there several arsonists running around the city, but studies had shown that old wiring was causing fires at a catastrophic rate. Then he turned around and made a million with a fire insurance company he had invested in. The city would have that guy up on fraud charges so fast it would make your head spin. I aint holding my breath on the msm taking this view anytime soon though.

When I run into a GW fanatic, I just break down in laughter and more laughter and even more laughter. After a while they just get POed and walk away.

I say: Give them so much grief over their ignorant AGW advocacy that they are allergic to ever doing anything of the sort again.

When this global warming house of cards finally collapses, I just can’t wait for the lawsuits to start. From investors who put their VC money into the green technologies. From the donors to Gore’s worldwide campaign to save the world. It’ll just be fun to sit back and watch one set of liberals attack the other set.

Kind of like watching the Nazis fight the Soviets.
