Hurricane experts admit they can’t predict hurricanes early
Honest experts: say a look back shows their past 20 years of [early] forecasts had no predictive value.
If widely acclaimed experts cannot skillfully predict extreme weather likelihood 6-12 months in advance what does that tell you about the hysterical claims of the modeling fraternity about periods 50-100 years hence? Continue reading

Should planet earth have rights alongside and equal to human rights?
I’m not sure how planet earth managed to request legal counsel but it must have done since Polly Higgins is described as “The lawyer for Planet Earth”. Anyway, equal rights for earth would extend to trees, grass, fish, animals, bugs, dirt, rocks and the air. In other words everything that makes up this world we live on would be legally on par with humans. Art Horn explains: Continue reading

Gore: Fighting skeptics like fighting racism

New slur against skeptics: ‘Birther-equivalent’
At first, we were mere “skeptics.” Then we became “flat-Earthers.” “Denier”, with its Holocaust-denial implications soon followed. But none of these perjoratives worked for the climate alarmists.
Now the alarmists have re-christened skeptics as “birther-equivalents.”
Well they can call us whatever names they like, but to paraphrase Galileo:
Etiam CO2 facticius non tepidus exitialis
(Still manmade CO2 doesn’t cause catastrophic warming).

Chris Christie: New Jersey’s Al Gore
Hurray, Chris Christie pulled New Jersey out of the Northeast’s cap-and-trade program… but BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!, he’s a believer in consensus science and, apparently, catastrophic manmade global warming.
While announcing that New Jersey was quitting the Regional GreenHouse Gas Initiative, Christie said,
I’m certainly not a scientist, which is the first problem. So I can’t claim to fully understand all of this, certainly not after just a few months of study. But when you have over 90 percent of the world’s scientists who have studied this stating that climate change is occurring and that humans play a contributing role, it’s time to defer to the experts.
Yes, what logic… brilliant….I don’t know anything… so rather than keeping my big fat mouth shut until I learn something, I’ll side with the likes of Al Gore, Osama bin Laden, Charles Manson, the Discovery Channel gunman, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Henry Waxman, Bobby Rush and every other whacked out, intellectually and morally bankrupt believer in global warming.
Chris Christie for President? No thanks. I’ll write in Kris Kringle first.

Clinton energy chief: Bin Laden death good for climate legislation
Clinton administration energy chief and former UN ambassador Bill Richardson hopes the killing of Osama bin Laden improves the prospects for climate legislation. According to Politico, Richardson said:
My hope is that from this success in the foreign policy arena two days ago, that he will be emboldened to take once again to the Congress legislation — not just to increase a renewable energy standard — but climate change legislation that this country and the world need… We can sit back and say, well we’ll wait until the next election, wait until the political climate is better. You know if we do that, we’re doomed — if we don’t take action right away.
Ironically, bin Laden was Richardson’s ideological kinsman on climate.
