I need someone to help me out on this. . . Owl Gore now says that the cold weather proves that global warming is real. This pretty much also explains why the Easter Bunny lays eggs, I suppose.
Global warming knocked out our power for four days and fried the motherboard on my computer. When our hot water ran out, we began to suspect that we had a shortage of carbon dioxide in the home, so we headed for a relative’s house in another city. I tried calling Owl Gore to come shovel out our driveway with a solar-powered snow shovel, but finally had to rely on the city to do the chore. Unfortunately, they used conventional, diesel-powered equipment.
We had no idea that the sun could cause ice to form on electric lines, but that’s apparently what happened.
In other news, global warming alarmists stated that, because the hurricanes never got the memo about increasing in numbers due to global warming, that, what this actually means is that we’ll have fewer hurricanes, but of greater intensity. So far, neither has happened in the past couple of years, but that only proves that whatever these whackos say about global warming and/or climate change is true, whether or not it actually happens. In fact, that something doesn’t happen means that it’s happening, even if the average individual is too stupid to realize it.
This all lends credence to the Clearwater Revival, if nothing else. Just how stupid does one have to be to believe in man-made global warming? That’s a rhetorical question and need not be answered.
Meanwhile, the University of Tennessee has decided to bestow an honorary doctoral degree on Mr. Gore for his “visionary” leadership, probably because he envisions things that aren’t real. They gave Dolly Parton the same honorary degree, so that pretty much sums up the true value of such an award. An online poll taken by knoxnews.com indicates that 97 % of respondents think it’s a bad idea to give Owl Gore this honorary degree. It’s scary that 2% think it’s a good idea.
If the president wants universal health care (read: socialized medicine), he should recruit Owl Gore to write a book and make a movie about it. Apparently, a lot of people will believe anything he says, even with facts to the contrary.
In the latest shocking development, it came out that the same temperature reporting system has been in use for a hundred years. Volunteers send in temperature readings via snail mail. Apparently, many of them don’t follow guidelines with respect to time of day and location of thermometers. They also sometimes forget, or go on vacation and just fill in the forms with numbers they made up. Some thermometers were found to be situated on blacktop, for example, or near incinerators. One in Rome was near an airport runway and was affected by the heat of jet engines. The late senator, Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D, New York) once stated, “Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.” This is one of those rare occasions when I agree with something stated by a liberal, at least when taken out of context.
I guess I never thought the global warming alarmists would ever say, “Aha, there’s snow on the ground in all 50 states, so global warming is real!”
Even if carbon dioxide were a greenhouse gas, it’s rather preposterous and presumptuous to think that the 25% or less created by humans could alter the Earth’s climate. Just how does one stop nature from generating the other 75%?
