Last night when I left work I trudged the five or so blocks to my car as the icy wind cut through my pants and chilled me to the bone. When I got home I turned on the local news to check the forecast, and forgot to turn it off before World News Tonight came on. I was flabbergasted when I heard them tell me that the record cold across the country is due to global warming. I checked the ABC News site and I can’t find the segment about global warming, but I know I’m not the only one who saw it. Record Cold Is “Global Warming”! There is no end of madness and doublespeak in media today. ABC’s World News actually said today that the reason our winter is so severely cold is “global warming”. That’s right: they actually said that it is COLDER because of global WARMING. There are words for assertions like that: “madness”, “insanity”, “lies”, and “garbage” are among them. How true. I’ll keep searching for the footage and update if I find it.

An intellectually honest leftist. I didn't know any existed...
"There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." -- go65, LF's answer to Ben Bernanke --
I've seen the guy interviewed twice in the last week. He makes a bunch of sense. He has a new book that I've just ordered from Amazon. Amazon is also bundling it with Hayek's "The Fatal Conceit" (which I already have).
By they way, he is also a huge proponent of genetically modified crops. He told a great story about how "golden rice" could save a half million kids in Asia from going blind each year from vitamin A deficiency.
GMO food is a double-edged sword. Look up "terminator seeds" and Monsanto, and you'll see what I mean... This sort of stuff is why a lot of farmers in India were committing suicide- they bought the high-yield GMO seeds, by going into debt... They were counting on being able to reseed the crops for a few years, so that they could make a profit. However, since the GMO seeds won't work after a season, the farmers were wiped out. In some instances, the GMO seeds are required manufacturer- specific fertilizers, or they would produce... It's all about locking in the farmers to a specific seed company, and then jacking up the rates... In other words, the GMO stuff isn't about "saving" anyone... It's all about the money.

He's certainly welcome to his beliefs, and there are many who share those beliefs, but roughly 97% of climate scientists disagree. Look, I can find doctors who argue that vaccines will poison you, that you should never treat cancer with chemo, and that root canals will make you sick. That doesn't mean they are correct. Heck, Nobel Laureate economist Paul Krugman argues that cutting spending now is a mistake, so does that mean you believe him? The facts are pretty clear - since the 1970's global temperatures have risen at a faster rate than at any previous time in history, and the rise correlates perfectly with rising atmospheric CO2 levels. And based on isotope analysis, we know that CO2 is rising due to human activity. Only a rare few will dispute that, and most instead resort to "it's all a conspiracy" arguments. What there is much disagreement on is the continued rate of change, and the impact of such change, but as we see predicted events such as mega-storms, severe droughts, heatwaves, etc., becoming commonplace, I expect further consensus on the impact of a warming planet.
Since January 3, 2011, Republicans have controlled the power of the purse.
I don't think we want to adopt China's environmental standards as our own.

You hype your agenda, because you're incapable of original thought. The REAL question is, how signficant is your "warming" in the grand scheme of things??? Hmmm... It seems that it means precisely dick. Also, since the "global warming" has been happening since the 1700's, perhaps you can explain to me how the SUVs, aerosol cans, air-conditioning refrigerant, etc., started the trend...? Oh, that's right, none of that shit EXISTED back then.... Oh, and the population was a lot SMALLER than it is today, so it's not caused by MAN... Indeed they are.

What is your PhD in? Where has your thesis been published/peer reviewed?

Eric is a conspiracy nut, I put him on filter several weeks ago.

I'm still working on my doctorate. Americans typically think that a doctorate is always a Ph.D., but that's not accurate. Suffice to say, what I'm working on is not a Ph.D. I will provide no specifics, because I prefer to maintain my anonymity. It is not in "climatology" (a laughable description- the only legit "climate" experts would be meteorologist, IMO). Thus, I don't pretend to be an expert on the underlying causes of rain clouds or whatever. I need only look at the data, apply a modicum of common sense, and recognize that go56 is simply pushing more shit. g056 will have you believe that only an "expert" can discern reality. That's a lot of crap. "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." -- go65, LF's answer to Ben Bernanke --
What? Damn, I'm moving UP in the world... First you just said I was an anti-Semite (typical red herring), Then you accused me of being the next version of the AZ shooter... And now I'm a conspiracy nut? What do you call a "conspiracy theory" when it's proven true? How about a "crime?" For example, Operations Paperclip, Mockingbird, SHAD, MKULTRA, Northwoods? How about the WATERGATE scandal? I guess believing that the Watergate scandal occured makes me a conspiracy nut... Of course, the other conspiracies above are all a matter of public record now...
"There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." -- go65, LF's answer to Ben Bernanke --
Thanks, but your opinion is not viewed as such in any case. Good luck on your doctorate of mystery.
"Keep Your Goddamn Government Hands Off My Medicare!" - Various Tea Party signs.
Since there IS no area of science called "climatology" per se, those who claim to be experts on the matter are prima facie dissemblers. It appears that my point was too... adult for you, and you missed the irony. In the larger scope of the world, your views of my expertise are irrelevant. In the areas of economics and finance, I am an expert. As well as some other things, which are now more interesting for me to study... Keep this in mind, when you attempt to debate economics and finance. If you lie, I will call you out on it. THIS is the reason go56 put me on bozo. He doesn't like being exposed for lying to promote his agenda
"There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." -- go65, LF's answer to Ben Bernanke --
lol, i doubt he's even got any kind of degree and now he's preparing for a doctorate in internet posting.
I can't see how you claim victories when you don't win an argument. I mean you don't post any links with facts at all as far as I can remember to back up your stuff.
"Keep Your Goddamn Government Hands Off My Medicare!" - Various Tea Party signs.
Yes, I know. That's why I enjoy our debates. Fight ON, Black Knight! "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." -- go65, LF's answer to Ben Bernanke --
Like most republicans, you are a masochist.
"Keep Your Goddamn Government Hands Off My Medicare!" - Various Tea Party signs.
No, I'm a sadist when it comes to bitch-slapping you traitorous socialists and communists. I ENJOY exposing your lies. Since you're on the receiving end, and YOU came to THIS forum to push YOUR socialist agenda, it is clearly YOU that enjoys being on the receiving end... to put it politely. But I can see why you be confused... Socialism and Communism want everyone to suffer equally. It's a masochistic "kumbaya" ideology... for everyone but the elites.

Given your lack of maturity and wisdom in your posts, I have to ask... Have you graduated high school, yet? Working on a GED? Or are you some unemployed loser sitting in mum and dads house, posting shit because you're lazy and dull-witted?

Hmmm... How LONG did it take you to look up ad hominem? Oh, and as to losing an argument, you lost on this thread, as SOON as I hit the "Post" button... for #23. You ALSO lost the argument, regarding NASA budgets (and your bullshit lies) as soon as I hit the "Post" button, an hour ago... for #38, at http://libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=16981&Disp=38#C38 I posted the truth, you posted SHIT (as usual), and once exposed, you don't make a peep... You try to attack on another front, after you're trapped. And on we go... I can do this all day, if I want. I thought that maybe you'd be more... worthy... as an opponent. On further consideration, however, you're found wanting. And, the worst sin of all... you're boring. So it's back to bozo for you.

"climate scientists" but NOT astro-physicists or geologists. That's the point. "Climate scientists" are working in a corrupt system guided by politics not science, so they can't be trusted.

Thanks for posting the chart. When my dad was a kid, on the farm, during the Great Depression, his mom told him that thunder and lighting meant god was angry. Today, any weather disturbance is attributed to "global warning". Humans are a superstitions species.
"Climate scientists" are working in a corrupt system guided by politics rather than science, so they can't be trusted. throughout all these discussions there has been no effort nor ability made to refute the science. Instead, it is summarily dismissed as part of a massive global conspiracy that must involve thousands upon thousands of people. Do you not realize how silly that sounds or how that makes you guys sound like the same folks who claim the government orchestrated the 9/11 attacks?

Bullshit. The bogus science has been discredited numerous times. You just dismiss it when it is done and continue to beleive the manufactured data.

Perhaps you should take a class (or buy a book) on HTML, instead of snivelling. Incompetence on your part, is NOT a problem on my part.

lol It's a bit more than that. Of course, were you to actually educate yourself on the subject, instead of being a whiney little bitch, you'd already know that... But I doubt you'll bother. After all, swaggering bravado on your part will surely overcome skill and knowledge, right? LOL.

Bastardi. Chuckle. Here's his winter 2010-11 prediction map: Do you still want to put faith in Bastardi?
Since January 3, 2011, Republicans have controlled the power of the purse.
Simply repeating that statement over and over again doesn't make it true. Sorry.
Since January 3, 2011, Republicans have controlled the power of the purse.
Correct. That fact that the statement is ACCURATE, is what guarantees it's true. Your delusional tendencies to believe a reality you conceive in your own empty head has more validity then objective and observable reality, is what makes you a LOON. Yes, you're VERY sorry..... The sooner you mentally-deficient fools remove yourselves from the gene pool, the better.

Joe Bastardi is one of the most respected meteorologists in the country. Even he can't get everything right, but he's held accountable. Exactly how are your "climatologists" held accountable?
Chuckle.... --- http://climateprogress.org/2011/01/17/joe-bastardi-wager-global-warming-arctic-sea-ice/ * Long wrong Joe Bastardi cooks the books to smear NSIDC. Time for Accuweather to fire him: National Snow & Ice Data Center explains Bastardi can’t read graphs and “is unclear as to how standardized anomalies are derived” * Joe Bastardi can’t read a temperature anomaly map and so spins another conspiracy theory: Says pre-1978 temperatures use “magic readjustment” * Accuweather’s Joe Bastardi admits, “Earth continues warmest winter since satellite measurements started”: Then he invents a new, self-contradictory theory of warming. * Meteorological Malpractice: Accuweather’s Joe Bastardi pushes the “70s Ice Age Scare” myth again * O’Reilly’s weatherman, befuddled Bastardi: “Global cooling is actually a cause of drought in California” * Joe Bastardi asserts “The coming cooling of the planet overall will return it to where it was in the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s”

So you're entire argument is based on a left wing site's dumbass assertions? Bastardti is far more credble than any of your sources.

He unequivocally states that we do not have enough information to know what causes climate change. What he does know is that the climate has changed for millions of years before there were any humans. He also believes that a little warming is beneficial and certainly better than cooling, which would threaten the food supply.

Something I didn't know -- two new nuclear power plants will start construction in Georgia this year. They will go online by 2016. He also said it takes 8 years to get a plant operational under current regulations -- 4 years to plan and 4 years to construct. That's not bad, but China does it in 6 years.
