Looks like most of the Liberal states are under water. How can this be bad?

Do you remember that rather entertaining film of a decade or so ago about global warming causing a new ice age? I had forgotten the name of it, but a handful of people trapped at the New York Public Library managed to ride it out by keeping the place warm by burning books. They started with the IRS tax code.

A mega flood that wipes out the sinners, where have I heard that before? Most libtards live near large bodies of water. There’s something in their DNA about always having a river, lake, or ocean escape route to another country once their current host is bled dry. If all our libtards drown what will we do with all the new wealth we’ll get to keep?

Me neither. No more Miami, NYC, Los Angeles, San Fran Sicko or New Orleans.

Trouble is... Them people would probably move to Texas. Or somewhere else that is nice.

I can definitely see some positive benefits.

“So NatGeo’s theory is that they can precisely predict climate for 5,000 years...”

Oh, really? I rather doubt that, given that most meteorologists can’t accurately tell me what kind of weather we’ll have next Wednesday.

Looks like CA won’t really lose much of its present coastline, but the Central Valley will turn into a bay. Which is a pity, since the population of the Central Valley is largely conservative...

Yup, they used to have great science articles, now they pimp propaganda.

20 or so years ago, I read an article in National Geographic about hunting dogs, particularly hounds. 4 times in the lengthy article, the so called expert from N.G. referred to "braying hounds", evidently not knowing that donkeys bray, dogs bay.

So much for N.G.'s expertise about nature, animals, language or anything else.

Yeah. But what if all the clouds emptied out the water in them? Woo hoo! THEN you’d have trouble. — Texas Eagle


An interesting question to which I found out the answer years ago. ONE INCH of water would coat a sphere the Earth’s size if the clouds in the atmosphere around it were like our Earth’s and somehow condensed into rainfall all at once. Not much water in them there clouds, IOW.

we’ll very likely create an ice-free planet

I can remember when The National Geographic was creditable? I can even remember when the New York Times was creditable. Those ships have sailed.

Fun premise, but, of course, the most utter science fiction.

National Geographic and the History Channel have both become tools of the enviro whacko’s.

Am I bad just because that mental image brought a smile to my face?

No. You are a bad man because you didn't envision him clutching an equally drowned Nancy Pelosi.

JimRob gets a beachfront, and we get rid of Sacramento.
