The Blaze ^ | May 21, 2013 | Jason Howerton

During CNN’s live coverage of the deadly Oklahoma tornado on Monday night, host Piers Morgan and Bill Nye speculated on the possible role of climate change in the disaster.

“As a scientist, when you hear about the size, scale, power, devastation of this tornado, what does it tell you about the ongoing debate about climate change?” Morgan asked his guest.

Nye said climate change has to be considered after a catastrophic weather event like the devastating tornado in Oklahoma. He also claimed 10 of the last 12 years are the “warmest years recorded.”(continued)

Just when you think "Naw, they won't try and politicize a natural disaster that killed that many people" they go ahead and do it.

Dead children still trapped in a school, and these a-holes use the tragedy for left wing, junk science political purposes.

Bill Nye is a COMEDIAN...he was part of a ‘Saturday Night Live style’ sketch show out of Seattle called ‘Almost Live!’ Look up his ‘Speedwalker’ videos on YouTube ...funny stuff, but you’ll NEVER take this guy seriously as an expert on anything after watching...

I posted something very similar earlier this morning on another thread, except I was speculating as to when Obama was going to do it. He’s waiting for the talking points buildup from his hens scattered around the media to soften up the audience I guess

I am getting so damn sick and tired of these ghouls doing a two-step on the corpses of the innocent to advance their agenda whenever something tragic occurs.

There are a lot more people in OK and tornadoes are doing what they’ve always done.

“I am getting so damn sick and tired of these ghouls doing a two-step on the corpses of the innocent to advance their agenda whenever something tragic occurs.”

I always put myself into the mind of someone I’m trying to understand. In the case of liberals, I try not touch anything as they drip alienesque goo. Certainly you shouldn’t drink the Kool-Aid while there.

Imagine you’re touched by the tragedy of children dying. You want to make their deaths meaningful. Someone who dies without promoting a liberal agenda is truly dead. But someone who dies promoting an agenda becomes immortal. Trevyon Martin, for example, will live forever. It’s rather like (or not) Christians baptizing the dead.

Gee Bill Nye and Piers Morgan the melding of great minds - how irresistible must be their conclusions. I do hope they keep it for posterity so we may all learn from their collective wisdom !!!

“As a scientist, when you hear about the size, scale, power, devastation of this tornado, what does it tell you about the ongoing debate about climate change?”

As a scientist, I have great skepticism in the climate changing power of a small change in the concentration of a trace atmospheric gas. As a scientist, I don't interpret the ubiquity of the phrase "because of climate change" in scientific literature as definitive demonstration of climate change. As a scientist, I'm still waiting on empirical proof that humans can cause world-ending climate change.

As a scientist... just sayin...

Snow in Arkansas in May = Weather
Heat wave in August = Global Warming
Historic Ice in the Berring Sea = Weather
F5 in Tornado alley in tornado seaon = Global warming

Obama is giving thanks for the disaster that takes media focus off of IRS, Benghaza, Fast and Fusious, etc.

“...Bill Nye and Piers Morgan, the melding of great minds...”

One must remember that Progressivism attracts the most brilliant, smartest, most educated, enlightened, superior, genetically advanced, intellectual geniuses that have ever walked the face of the earth.
