[dynachrome]

I think there was a Time magazine cover and story devoted to the new ice age we were entering.

[grandpa jones]

nice.

Yes, I remember it. Then they realized that they couldn’t destroy the economy if there were an ice age because that would be a good reason to drill, baby, drill.

So they switched to “global warming,” which gives them the opportunity to halt energy production here because who needs to heat anything if the whole world is getting warmer?

May God forgive me, I hate those lying dogs.

Don’t confuse Boxer (Ma’am) with facts. She’s too damn dumb to understand the argument.

"Anybody out there .....that remembers the Coming Ice Age scare in the 70’s?"
Yes. One could hardly find a magazine that did not broadcast Holdren's horse manure. We where doomed.

"When Barack Obama nominated John P. Holdren as his Science Adviser last December 20, the president-elect stated "promoting science isn’t just about providing resources" but "ensuring that facts and evidence are never twisted or obscured by politics or ideology." In nominating John Holdren, his words could scarcely have taken a more Orwellian ring.". Quote taken from Frontpage Magazine.

Actually, in the seventies, it was getting cooler. The trend reversed in the eighties.

Then, in the nineties, it really did start to get warmer -- up until 2001, then it started getting cooler again.

Fact is, 1890's, the 'teens, the thirties, the fifties and the nineties were warming. The oughts, the twenties, the forties, the sixties, the seventies, eighties and the oughts were cooling.

Do you see a pattern here? And it has nothing to do with man.

Do you see a pattern here.

It’s fun to watch, but making Boxer look like an idiot is not really much of a challenge.
