        Again-

        When we have blizzards in Washington, DC in mid-winter, it's proof that global climate change is a hoax.

        When we have 97-degree heat for several days in a row in Vermont in July, global climate change is either not mentioned, or a hoax.

          When we have blizzards in my part of West Texas ANYTIME, it's proof that global climate change is completely and totally real! Never happened here before in our city's history . . . happened on December 24, 2008.

          The heat wave is a vast conspiracy to lie about the temperature. It's not as hot as you think it is. Besides, if you were worthy, God would have made you wealthier so you could afford air-conditioning.

      Question to Limbaugh and his followers: Why hasn’t the right said anything about the heat wave on the eastern seaboard?

        Because it's NORMAL for Vermont to be near 100 degrees several days in a row, and to have the humidity of downtown Atlanta. Didn't you know that?

        Meanwhile- snow in the Washington DC area in mid-winter? Proof that if anything, the earth is cooling, not warming. Haha Al Gore, what a scam artist!

        Now excuse me, I have to go talk my AC-less next door neighbor out of committing suicide and rub the dog down with ice cubes again.

          jjamele:

          There is no denying the weather patterns this year were strange, and it appears the weather patterns are changing. New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and D. C. were hit with huge snow storms. We, in southern New England had either flurries or three to four inches pf snow.

          The weirdest part was the Nor'easter we had in March; we are used to them around here, particularly in the Fall, and Spring. But, this one was truly amazing. I've lived a balance of my life in New England, and I have never seen anything like it. My town, and the surrounding ones were hit hard.Huge trees were literally turned upside down, and it wasn't just random, it was on almost every street. Schools were closed for a week because of downed power lines and trees. The last time that happened was back in the 70's and it had to to with back-to-back blizzards.

          This may seems antedotal, but it just seems that the weather is becoming more erratic.

        I'd love to see Media Matters do a research piece on the number of times Fox News uses various heat waves around the U.S. this summer to suggest global warming?

        vs.

        How many times they used snow storms in the winter to bash global warming.

      Independent review that doesn't jibe with Limbaugh's pre-conceived conclusions = circling the wagons.

      Not only is the east coast baking, there is also a heat-wave in China. The Scientific community frowns upon Rush's shenanigans.

      The heat must be getting to Fatty Blimpaugh.

      I bet his current "wife" already moved into another room due to all the profuse sweating.... among other things.

      The global warming skeptics have to hold on to this climategate with everything they have because that is the only piece of evidence that there may be a hoax.

      Now that a formal investigation has happened showing that the emails were not an attempt to deceive, they are forced to say the entire scientific community is in on it. I'm sure at this point they would rather just drop the whole thing with a Gilda Radner "nevermind".

        And there were 3 independent formal investigations, all of wich can to similar conclusions. No Hoax, No Colussions.

      Right-Wing thinking 102:

      Scientists guilty of lying = proof of global-warming hoax.

      Scientists cleared of lying = liberal cover-up = proof of global-warmig hoax.

      Any questions, class?...

      ***Limbaugh Classic***

      I knew it without scientific study but it is now there to back me up... for the longest time, ladies and gentlemen, I have been using innate intelligence guided by experience and my finely honed instincts to rebut and refute the silly notion that we are victims of global warming
