        Spend time looking for what doesn't exist? Not really . . .

      I get it. This is satire, nothing malicious or incendiary.

      Another "it's snowing on my back yard, which disproves global climate change" argument. At least this one seems to be played for laughs.

      Glenn, I would be appalled if someone said that about you. This is real proof of Global Climate Change, where the extremes of weather will become even more extreme. It isn't called Global Warming by any respectable scientist, but then, you probably comprehend science as well as you do economics and history, which means, you really don't.

        Hmmm. So the IPCC isn't made up of "respectable scientists"?

          The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is made up of respectable scientists. They don't call it Global Warming, they call it Climate Change. You have "sourced"<sarcasm> to a Fixed Spews article that incorrectly calls it Global Warming. MickieD's has an "Angus" burger, it doesn't make it a steak dinner.

            So let me get this straight. You're telling me that I'm not going to be able to find a recent IPCC report from their website that mentions global warming? You're telling me it's impossible for me to do that? I just want to get you on the record here.

              You are welcome to prove me wrong. But all I could find at the IPCC was discussions on Climate Change. Including the report that the Faux Noise article talked about, now I only went as far as the table of contents, so maybe I missed the stuff on Global Warming, but you're invited to provide a link proving me wrong. You know Faux, they never let facts or semantics get in the way of a good smear, and it's just gravy that they hoodwink their audience at the same time.

                It's a PDF file. Just do a search for global warming and it'll show up. It doesn't prove much though from my standpoint.

                My whole argument against AGW (or climate change) is that the charts I always see show temperature anomalies of less than 1% Celsius over the history of modern civilization. Man-caused or not that's - in my humble opinion - nothing to worry about.

                  It's still about Climate Change. Charts-schmarts. What do you have to say about a 70% retreat of glaciers around the globe? What do you have to say about the cracking of polar ice? What do you have to say about rising sea levels? The fact is, that 1 degree celsius seems to make a big difference. But, you have nothing to worry about. Go drive your SUVs, make no attempt to conserve anything and if the biosphere is ruined, it won't be your fault.

        No need -- they just share the same (single) brain (cell).

        Like most wingnuts . . .

      I love all the global warming believers. We get a huge snow storm for 3 days straight over 25% of the country and they then say, global warming causes extreme weather. (doesn't matter if it is cold) And then in the midwest over the last two summers, we have had the coolest summers in the last 50 years. And then last winter in central Florida, it was the coldest winter on record. Please how are you all going to blame this on global warming?? I am sure you will have a way, i just want to see what it is. And by the way, Glenn Beck for President!!! I know he it to smart to ever try that but it would be great. Oh yeah, Mr. Beck is kidding, why would anyone try to look for Al Gore???
