Parody or Does She Believe It? CNN Anchor Blames Asteroid on Global Warming By Brent Baker Created 02/09/2013 - 5:41pm

CNN anchor Deb Feyerick asked Saturday afternoon if an approaching asteroid, which will pass by Earth on February 15, “is an example of, perhaps, global warming?”

Moments earlier, before an ad break, she segued from the Northeast blizzard to a segment with Bill Nye “the science guy,” by pointing to global warming: “Every time we see a storm like this lately, the first question to pop into a lot of people’s minds is whether or not global warming is to blame? I’ll talk to Bill Nye, ‘the science guy,’ about devastating storms and climate change.”

Audio: MP3 clip

She never got to that question in the subsequent interview at about 3:25 PM EST during CNN Newsoom, instead transitioning from a snowfall update: “Talk about something else that’s falling from the sky and that is an asteroid. What’s coming our way? Is this an effect of, perhaps, of global warming or is this just some meteoric occasion?”

Nye resisted confirming her hypothesis.

It just seems like a standard CNN knee-jerk response to me.

#1 - It's Bush's fault

If that isn't appropriate go to -

#2 - It must be caused by Global Warming (updated to “Climate Change”)

The above two liberal responses cover all cases...:^)

Global warming is responsible for tone nail fungus and tooth decay. This has to be true. Oh, and it’s Bush’s fault too. And it’s responsible for all of those newsroom talking saying idiotic things and sounding so stupid. Yes, this is true!

Liberals are the idiots and this proves it.

I hate to say this but I wonder if this might be more of an example of a certain style of female thinking.

They already are — reference the millions of human deaths called for by the likes of Bill Ayers and his unlovely wife to “restore” the Earth’s population “balance.”

1 Corinthians 13:11 "When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things."

Obviously CNN anchors are children. So to speak.

She probably believes it. Such is the quality of those “reporting” the news and the news they “report.”

Global Warming has caused emotional and physical harm to me..

I am 65 and have been suffering from LNS for the past several years. The low testostorone level and the LNS (LIMP NOODLE SYNDROME) was a definite result of Global Warming - It could not have been caused by anything else - I am a Loon Democrat Liberal - and I KNOW ALL..

If the population had half a clue about basic science this twit would have been laughed off the air. However, the "low information voters" (a.k.a nitwits) will believe this crap. I am beginning to think the movie Idiocracy is a documentary.

Overall knowledge IS increasing. Scientific, medical and engineering breakthroughs are still occurring at an exponential rate. With the help of computing, probably more so than at any point in human history.

We have a small group of producers who are beginning to unlock the secrets of the entire Universe. On the other hand we also have a majority population decaying from sloth and willful ignorance. We also have a parasitic elite that uses government corruption to rob everyone.

Oh yes.

No doubt the rishing GSL will kill us all long before the rising sea level...

It’s incredible how people ignore real problems and focus on those that do not even exist.

Agreed.

I think it is plainly visible in the arts- movies and music for example, not to mention traditional art.

There simply are no great people being born. It almost as if such persons have been removed from the gene pool.

You believe we talking monkeys (homo sapiens) will unlock all the ultimate secrets of the Universe? I don’t. We’re barely above the level of apes. An alien species capable of interstellar travel WOULD consider us apes. True, we have learned a lot, but I think we will eventually hit a brick wall our finite brains won’t be able to get through. Consider space travel. China invented chemical propelled rockets in the 3rd century,,,1800 years ago. We’ve added tweaks and sophistication, but we’re still basically using the same propulsion system China invented almost 2 thousand years ago. No paradigm shifting breakthroughs. And take Physics as a whole. Einstein made his huge, paradigm shifting breakthrough with the Theory of Relativity in 1905,,,over a century ago. Since then, no big breakthroughs on a scale that big.

Global warming useful idiots have their own cul-de-sac in internet kooksville. They are an interesting study in self delusion, anger, resentment and, overwhelmed by a false sense of guilt, fear and anexity.

Imagine the burden of thinking your own breath caused Sandy to wipe out part of NYC. They really believe their god is mad because humans are happy and live. It’s a religion of self mutilation.

Imagine the burden of thinking your own breath caused Sandy to wipe out part of NYC and causes earthquakes in foreign places. Every disaster on earth is personal; caused by too many people breathing out carbon. They really believe their earth god is mad because humans were born and dare to be happy in spite of their evil existence.

EnviornMENTALism is a faith of both hatred for mankind and self hatred. Algore is it’s guru and a global fascist system of government ruling over the globe is the answer.
