Okay…there’s almost no way to take these guys seriously anymore. Check out Item #4 at the following FoxNews link: "Eight Botched Environmental Forecasts" (http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/12/30/botched-environmental-forecasts/). Oft-quoted Princeton scientist and climate-change advocate Michael Oppenheimer speaks of a 65% margin of error in their temperature predictions. If that’s the standard these guys are using, then everything they say is completely meaningless. I could probably make 20 climate predictions while singing “Ring My Bell” and pruning my azaleas and be within the margin of error!

Tossing a coin would give you a 50% margin of error

Within one degree warmer or cooler than this year....I’d stake my reputation on it if I had one!

Meanwhile in England they’re saying it’s the coldest in a thousand years. In 2001 there was a story in their media saying kids a few years from then won’t know what snow is.

This is exactly what the priesthood of an unmasked false religion looks like.
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

65% margin of error sounds like a guess to me
To: Reeser
It’s settled science! Well, um, 65 percent, um...
Yep. Sort of.

I would think most scientists in their fields would be professionally laughed out of their labs if they even thought of publicly saying something that stupid.

Things are becoming how should we say, a bit interesting. How long will the L/MSM be able to hold out before they cave in to the reality. Perhaps not as long as one might imagine. The global cooling phase is certainly not going away any time soon.

The global cooling phase is certainly not going away any time soon. Like Wall Street, it is not a decline; it is a correction.
The bull market will resume selling its manure as soon as summer arrives.
Anomaly, or anomalous pause, I believe they're calling it, when not trying to explain how colder is the new warmer.
I'm 65% certain that June 2020 will be warmer than January 2011. You can take that to the bank!

Yes. The big Wall Street Banks continue, at least a few of them which of course Goldman Sachs is among the lead,are going to continue to bet on big money coming from the global warming scam in the way of carbon credits.
Hopefully we shall see them lose very big in the next few years. Their filth as far as I am concerned. Being conservative and strong on America and what used to be it's industrial might along with a host of other legit good attributes has nothing in common with the greedy bastards on Wall Street. Lloyd Blanfein (CEO of Goldman Sachs) and company had better realize sooner or later that they are not isolated.
Though they currently continue to bring in huge gross profits from many means in due time they are going to see their money profits shaved down as big players and small no longer want to participate in easy money. Because the easy money is no longer an option.
Let us just take the recent total decline in the Chicago Carbon Trading Exchange. In which of course you are aware included Goldman Sachs as a big player.
They are going caput. Now the goons in Cali are trying a similar routine. I hope those pricks loose big time. Fuck em all.
Their not Americans as most conservatives and even poor bastard misguided liberal demos would consider.
I rest my case. circa.... 1972... "NONE DARE CALL IT CONSPIRACY" by Garry Allen woke me up. Since then it has been a long road viewing how fast our country has slide down the road.
This global warming scheme is simply a part of a bigger scam to destroy the United States of America.
Sorry for the less then eloquent French. I usually speak English by nature.
Do have a great upcoming day. I do have to hit the rack.

Whoops. For the record.
Blanfine = Blankfein.
Tis been a long day. Take care.
Might as well. What the heck.
Bought and Paid For. Charles Gasparino. Well worth the read.
For some such as I that where a bit blind sided. The book will show you what real assholes and thieves for the most part the big Wall Street Banks are. I'll leave it go at that. I must hit the rack.
