The Overwhelming Judgment of Science Rejects Obama's Global Warming Claims
Forbes.com ^ | 1-24-13 | James Taylor

Posted on 01/31/2013 11:56:23 AM PST by mjp

President Barack Obama in his second inauguration address called for new action to “respond to the threat of climate change.” Taking advantage of the bully pulpit and a huge national audience, Obama mustered his best possible arguments in a brief case for why addressing global warming is supposedly necessary. Unfortunately for global warming alarmists, Obama’s case was exceptionally flimsy. Then again, Obama did not have much to work with, as the overall case for global warming alarmism is exceptionally flimsy.

Oh, remember this is a religious thing to many on the left.

They achieve their sense of self righteousness through the issues they care about (not really DO anything, but just “care”).

When you say that issue is a non-issue, you are basically telling them their god is not real.

This GloBULL Warming crap has NEVER been about saving the plant from mankind. It has ALWAYS been about ENSLAVING mankind by CHILLING our GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS with the phoney boogieman of anthropogenic global warming.

More and more legitimate and actual scientists are coming out from this grant acquisition racket and speaking the truth. Sadly, many of them are still chained to the state sponsored scam and trading their souls and integrity for yet another bowl of porridge from our wouldbe masters should they convince us that to “save the planet” we must give up our freedoms.

They can have MY freedoms when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers!

PS: The earth has FOREVER experienced these cycles and alway will. The cause? THE SUN!!! I understand that Algore has proposed installing a huge rheostat on the sun and even volunteered to go up and install it personally. Those worried about his safety need not be. Genius that he is, he plans to GO AT NIGHT!

“Man-Caused/Global Warming”is a load of Bovine Scatology!If we had the power to change the weather-cycles,why do we still have hurricanes?This is nothing more than”Junk Science”with a specific political goal!!As El Rushbo has said MANY times,there is NO such thing as”Scientific Consensus”!!!For something to be referred to as genuinely”Scientific”,it must be PROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IMHO, we live in an age of zero accountability. GW is an excellent example as follows:

1.) The popular speculation is that there is a Cause-and-Effect relationship between the concentration of CO2 and the temperature in the atmosphere.

2.) In the discipline of SCIENCE, all ideas are objectively tested REPEATEDLY! To the best of my knowledge, there have been NO published Scientific tests of ANY Cause-and Effect relationship between Temp and CO2.

3.) Without objective testing the GW idea remains a pure speculation supported by junk scientists.

4.) A cross-plot of Temp and CO2 concentration with time does show a rough correlation between the two, but with significant cyclical deviations, such as in the mid-1940’s.

5.) Scientific Cause-and-Effect testing of ideas has been replaced by statistical INFERENCE “testing” in the published high-quality Scientific Literature.

6.) The GW Speculation currently has over 200 dependent and independent variables, and thus is securely impervious to Scientific Testing.

7.) We are thus in the age of NO Accountability, in junk science, or in National Politics. Well, unless one is from the “show me” State of Missouri !

BTW, for Scientists and Politicians, the most difficult thing for them to say is the following: “I don’t know.” As a result ideas are held onto for long periods of time, even though there is no proof known to support those ideas.

Be the first on your block to holler “PROVE IT!”

However, be prepared for all sorts of cheap, verbal abuse, as junk scientists, and junk politicians hate to be held accountable for their actions and inactions.

Nothing in science is ever proved or settled. Everything is provisional awaiting new data or a change in the model. The new data doesn’t support continual warming and the old data doesn’t support that the warming is either harmful or human caused.
