Ezra Levant discusses the Cult of Climate Change Craziness
But do not worry about that. The scientific community says it is much ado about nothing, Stacy McCain, however…………
They’re scientists, after all, which means they’re never wrong, so ignorant laymen like us should have complete confidence in their judgment:
Anyone happening to glance towards the heavens in a week’s time and glimpses a 50-metre-long lump of rock hurtling ominously through the skies need not panic.
Although it will pass closer to us than any asteroid has for the past 15 years — closer even than the TV satellites that girdle the planet — Nasa insists that 2012 DA14 will miss Earth by a good 17,100 miles (27,520km).
“No Earth impact is possible,” said Donald Yeomans, an astronomer with the US space agency.In other words: PANIC! It’s going to destroy us all!
The good news is this. If it does hit us, we will not be around to listen to Al Gore blame asteroids on climate change. Also, it will be the end of reality shows.
UPDATE! The obligatory “Did Global Warming Cause the Asteroid Card” has already been played!
CNN anchor Deb Feyerick asked Saturday afternoon if an approaching asteroid, which will pass by Earth on February 15, “is an example of, perhaps, global warming?”
UGH! Is there any absurdity the Left will not stoop to?
So, what if a man went to the Arctic Circle to write about how the Polar bear population was being decimated by global warming, only to find out that Polar Bears are more numerous than in the 1970′s? Clearly this can be nothing more than a seething hatred for Al gore. This man Zac Unger clearly does not want Gore to eke out a living by travelling the globe in private jets to tell people the Polar Bears are vanishing!
Author Zac Unger was originally drawn to the arctic circle to write a “mournful elegy” about how global warming was decimating the polar bear populations. He was surprised to find that the polar bears were not in such dire straits after all.
“There are far more polar bears alive today than there were 40 years ago,” Unger told NPR in an interview about his new book
, “Never Look a Polar Bear in The Eye.” “There are about 25,000 polar bears alive today worldwide. In 1973, there was a global hunting ban. So once hunting was dramatically reduced, the population exploded.”
“This is not to say that global warming is not real or is not a problem for the polar bears,” Unger added. “But polar bear populations are large, and the truth is that we can’t look at it as a monolithic population that is all going one way or another.”
Oh come on Zac, give Al a break, I mean he is struggling to make ends meet. Just look at the hovel he is forced to live in
Via Real Estalker, Al and Tipper Gore have picked up a $8.875M luxury getaway in Montecito, CA; a swanky zip code that has attracted big name residents like Oprah Winfrey, Steve Martin, and Kirk Douglas. Records show that the approximately 6,500 sq. foot home boasts 6 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, a large pool house, 6 fireplaces, wood framed french doors, and carved stone detailing throughout
I’m surprised it took them this long to figure the Goracle out.

Via NY Post:
Yesterday morning, the still shell shocked staff at Current TV was called to an all hands staff meeting at its San Francisco headquarters, which was teleconferenced to their offices in LA and NYC, to meet their new bosses.
That would be two of Al Jazeera’s top guys: Ehab Al Shihabi, executive director of international operations, and Muftah AlSuwaidan, general manager of the London bureau.
Ominously missing was the creator of Current, the self proclaimed inventor of the Internet and savior of clean energy, Al Gore, although his partner, Joel Hyatt, stood proudly with the Al Jazeera honchos.
“Of course Al didn’t show up,” said one high placed Current staffer. “He has no credibility. [...]
“He’s supposed to be the face of clean energy and just sold [the channel] to very big oil, the emir of Qatar! Current never even took big oil advertising – and Al Gore, that bullshitter sells to the emir?”
The displeasure with Gore among the staff was thick enough to cut with a scimitar.
“We all know now that Al Gore is nothing but a bullshitter,” said the staffer bluntly.
We do stories on the tax code, and he sells the network before the tax code kicked in?
“Al was always lecturing us about green. He kept his word about green all right – as in cold, hard cash!”
I think they paid five dollars for it, but the price isn’t the issue, the ideology is. We all know al-Jazeera is heavily biased, and apparently, Al Gore found their ideology similar to his
Before pan-Arab broadcaster al-Jazeera bought Current TV, the fledgling cable news network founded by former Vice President Al Gore, conservative commentator Glenn Beck had pursued purchasing the company — and was rejected.
The Wall Street Journal revealed that when Beck’s TheBlaze TV sought ownership of the Current broadcasting network, the bid was rejected because the principles of Beck’s company did not align with those of Current.
“Other suitors who didn’t share Current’s ideology were rebuffed,” reporters Keach Hagey and John Jannarone wrote in the Wall Street Journal. “Glenn Beck’s TheBlaze approached Current about buying the channel last year, but was told that ‘the legacy of who the network goes to is important to us and we are sensitive to networks not aligned with our point of view,’” according to a person familiar with the negotiations.”
The former vice president confirmed the sale Wednesday that reportedly netted $500 million, saying in a statement that Al-Jazeera shares Current TV’s mission “to give voice to those who are not typically heard; to speak truth to power; to provide independent and diverse points of view; and to tell the stories that no one else is telling.”
In other words, Gore is a Leftist, and that makes him far closer to a “news” outfit that carries water for terrorists than to American Conservatives. The mask slips a little more, revealing what the American Left really is.
UPDATE!! I guess Joe Biden might call Al Gore unpatriotic!
Liberal hypocrisy, thy name is Al:
Al Jazeera did not disclose the purchase price, but people with direct knowledge of the deal pegged it at around $500 million, indicating a $100 million payout for Mr. Gore, who owned 20 percent of Current. Mr. Gore and his partners were eager to complete the deal by Dec. 31, lest it be subject to higher tax rates that took effect on Jan. 1 . . .
Waiting for Team Obama to label Gore as greedy, and waiting, and waiting, and…….
Time Warner Cable Drops Al Gore’s Current TV Due To Purchase By Al Jazeera – Newsbusters
As NewsBusters reported Wednesday, Al Jazeera entered into an agreement to buy Al Gore’s failing network Current TV.

Hours later, as a result of the purchase, Time Warner Cable dropped the station with a message reading to viewers “This channel is no longer available on Time Warner Cable.”
According to multiple news sources, Current co-founder Joel Hyatt said in a statement that TWC dropped his TV network because TWC “did not consent to the sale to Al Jazeera.”
“Current will no longer be carried on TWC,” wrote Hyatt. “This is unfortunate, but I am confident that Al Jazeera America will earn significant additional carriage in the months and years ahead.”
The Huffington Post reported late Wednesday, “A Time Warner Cable spokesman said in a statement that ‘our agreement with Current will be terminated and we will no longer be carrying the channel.’”
Given TWC’s 12.5 million subscribers, it will be interesting to see how and if this impacts Al Jazeera’s decision to purchase Current.
Stay tuned.

I am sure some will be outraged, maybe even outrageously outraged that I would write such a thing. But, let me make the case here. We know that Democrats have made a habit of race pimping. If you doubt me on that, just turn over to MSNBS for five minutes. We know they gender pimp, their invented “War on Women” for instance. We know they are tragedy pimps. They have never failed to play politics with any school shooting have they? I could go on, but now is the time to expose the newest pimpin’ going on in the Democratic party. Weather pimpin’! Every tornado, forest fire, volcano, earthquake, and yes hurricane is pimped to argue that global warming ah climate change, will kill us all unless we embrace Communism, a lower standard of living, and OF COURSE, pay higher taxes. William Teach hammers the members of what I call the Al Gore Cult of Climate Change better than anyone else. So sit back, have fun with his latest!
First off, let’s define exactly what’s going on, via the Toronto Sun’s Lorrie Goldstein
Climate alarmists are great at linking single weather events like Hurricane Sandy to man-made climate change, a propaganda tactic otherwise known as climate porn.
Mike Honda provides his own bit of completely off the rails, bat guano insane climate p0rn
(The Politico) The devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy along the East Coast highlighted several tragic trends that will continue if not actively and aggressively addressed. First, the super storm showed us how powerful jet stream winds were able to box Sandy in along the coast and exacerbate the damage the storm caused. These blocking patterns have appeared with greater frequency and intensity in recent years, which scientists have attributed to the loss of Arctic sea ice as a result of global warming.
“Greater frequency”? When was the last one, Mike? Care to point it out? Second, the part about “blocking” is a baseless talking point unsupported by actual science that just cropped up within the past 7-10 days.
We need a president with the courage to pledge to cool the planet by cutting carbon emissions because, at the current rate, they’ll boil the planet. The first eight months of 2012 were the hottest on record since record-keeping began in 1895. The months of June, July and August produced the third-hottest summer ever recorded, the impact of which is killing our agricultural economy. This summer, 40 out of 50 states had drought-designated counties with conditions severe enough to be eligible for federal aid. Almost two-thirds of the nation experienced moderate to severe drought conditions, a 30 percent increase from last year, when one-third of the country witnessed such conditions.
OMG, like, you know, dude, we’ll boil the planet!!!!! Hysteria much, Mike? I guess you miss the part where the average global temperature is the same as it was 16 years ago. And, while you make a lot of hay about hot US temps (it was still hotter in the 1930′s, as well as the previous warm periods), you forget to mention that much of the rest of the world experienced much cooler than average temps.
After that there’s a lot of blamestorming of evil fossil fuel companies (hey, Mike, how do you get from California to D.C.?), Republicans, and more about backing Obama because of his climate change policies (which he never talks about and rarely does anything about). What’s missing is what Mike’s plans are, and how he has changed his own life to one that is carbon neutral. Warmists always forget that part. Even when the planet is in danger of boiling.
Bravo!
I refer to this propaganda as Liberalese, Matt at Conservative Hideout does us a tremendous service by disemenating Liberalese
We’re not against capitalism, we’re against it’s abuses…
Except when we blame them for the consequences of our own policies, and attempt to regulate and tax capitalism out of existence.
We’re not against religion, we’re against it’s misuse as a political tool.
Except when Hilary Clinton, Al Gore, and other Democrats make speeches at churches, or when we force the Catholic Church to pay for abortion, or when Democrats try to ban prayer, or just so happen to omit God from their platform. Oh, and by the way, Islam is perfectly OK.
We’re not against Democracy, we are against the manipulation of the Democratic process by corporate forces.
Corporations aren’t people, but labor unions are. And, as we all know, evil corporations are running the elections
Go read it all, pass it around
Well folks, Al Gore has now explained why Obama did so poorly last night. Global warming? Shockingly no, Gore did not blame it on that. No, no, Gore says it was the thin air
Yep, the Left is that deep in the Ditch of Denial
Alternate headline? Severe weather not caused by climate change, Al Gore hardest hit. William Teach has the scoop
(Washington Post) The study (abstract): “Monitoring and Understanding Trends in Extreme Storms: State of Knowledge”, to be published in a forthcoming issue of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, states its objective plainly:
Due to the intense media coverage of and great public interest in the 2011 disasters, we suspect that many [meteorologists] have received inquiries or have a personal interest about the nature of these events in the context of long-term trends and potential climate change. This paper is meant to present a clear record that can be used by meteorological professionals about what is known and unknown and why.
What’d they find out?Summary: Good long-term records of thunderstorms don’t exist and there’s no clear physical reason why to expect they would have changed.
Summary: Records of past tropical storm and hurricane activity are likely incomplete. While the frequency of Atlantic storms has increased since 1970 when observations have been more reliable, the cause of this uptick is not agreed upon.
Summary: There’s indication big snowstorms have increased over the last 60 years but no clear explanation for the change. The increase in big snowstorms has occurred even while the number of years with very little snow has stayed the same or increased. And there’s no evidence of meaningful changes in ice storms.
Summary: Reliable data indicate heavy precipitation events are increasing and rising amounts of water vapor in the atmosphere due to human-caused warming offer a good, but not necessarily complete, explanation.
But, the Warmists will still tell us that the science is settled

Wait, I thought the science was settled.
Twenty-year-old models which have suggested serious ice loss in the eastern Antarctic have been compared with reality for the first time – and found to be wrong, so much so that it now appears that no ice is being lost at all.
“Previous ocean models … have predicted temperatures and melt rates that are too high, suggesting a significant mass loss in this region that is actually not taking place,” says Tore Hattermann of the Norwegian Polar Institute, member of a team which has obtained two years’ worth of direct measurements below the massive Fimbul Ice Shelf in eastern Antarctica – the first ever to be taken.
That is the thing about science, sometimes scientists are wrong
According to a statement from the American Geophysical Union, announcing the new research:
It turns out that past studies, which were based on computer models without any direct data for comparison or guidance, overestimate the water temperatures and extent of melting beneath the Fimbul Ice Shelf. This has led to the misconception, Hattermann said, that the ice shelf is losing mass at a faster rate than it is gaining mass, leading to an overall loss of mass.
The team’s results show that water temperatures are far lower than computer models predicted …
Yep! That is me, Mr. Blogging Against Humanity!
Via Climate Depot:
“Climate Ethics” Prof. Donald Brown of Penn State University declared that skeptics may be guilty of a “new crime against humanity” for causing a 25 year delay in acting to stop climate change.
Brown, who appeared alongside Climategate professor Michael Mann at a Penn State forum on April 30, 2012, slammed what he termed the “disinformation campaign.”
Do I sense a bit of desperation here? As more and more scientists turn away from the nonsense that Al Gore and other Leftists have been preaching, the nastier the attacks against the “skeptics” have become. And of course, this is ALL America’s fault
“Unfortunately there are consequences [for skepticism] — we’ve lost 25 years. This is not disinformation. I think we should encourage a conversation whether this is some kind of new crime against humanity. It is really evil stuff. It is nasty. It has profound consequences for people in Africa , small developing states. and the U.S. virtually standing alone has failed to act on climate change and this is why, I think.”
Yep! There ya go folks. It is our damn fault because we are prosperous, and honor silly things that Brown loathes. You know, like Capitalism, and individual liberties. What do you want to bet that if this climate change BS falls apart, it will cost Brown a lot of $$$$$$$$?
Devastating to the global warming fear mongers.
(MSNBC) – James Lovelock, the maverick scientist who became a guru to the environmental movement with his “Gaia” theory of the Earth as a single organism, has admitted to being “alarmist” about climate change and says other environmental commentators, such as Al Gore, were too.
Lovelock, 92, is writing a new book in which he will say climate change is still happening, but not as quickly as he once feared.
He previously painted some of the direst visions of the effects of climate change. In 2006, in an article in the U.K.’s Independent newspaper, he wrote that “before this century is over billions of us will die and the few breeding pairs of people that survive will be in the Arctic where the climate remains tolerable.”
However, the professor admitted in a telephone interview with msnbc.com that he now thinks he had been “extrapolating too far.”
The new book, due to be published next year, will be the third in a trilogy, following his earlier works, “Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earth Is Fighting Back – and How We Can Still Save Humanity,” and “The Vanishing Face of Gaia: A Final Warning: Enjoy It While You Can.” [...]
“The climate is doing its usual tricks. There’s nothing much really happening yet. We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now,” he said.
“The world has not warmed up very much since the millennium. Twelve years is a reasonable time… it (the temperature) has stayed almost constant, whereas it should have been rising – carbon dioxide is rising, no question about that,” he added.
He pointed to Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” and Tim Flannery’s “The Weather Makers” as other examples of “alarmist” forecasts of the future.
Folks, Gore and his followers at The Church of Climate Change fanaticism might be doing a better job of convincing everyone their claims of global warming are true, if only the Polar Bears they insist are going extinct would freaking die already!
The longer we look at the
Global CoolingGlobal WarmingGlobal Climate Disruption scam, the more and more it starts to fall apart. One of the iconic images of the scam is this, featuring the poor polar bears…Well, that’s not quite the case, according to our friends to the great white north…
The debate about climate change and its impact on polar bears has intensified with the release of a survey that shows the bear population in a key part of northern Canada is far larger than many scientists thought, and might be growing.
The number of bears along the western shore of Hudson Bay, believed to be among the most threatened bear subpopulations, stands at 1,013 and could be even higher, according to the results of an aerial survey released Wednesday by the Government of Nunavut. That’s 66 per cent higher than estimates by other researchers who forecasted the numbers would fall to as low as 610 because of warming temperatures that melt ice faster and ruin bears’ ability to hunt. The Hudson Bay region, which straddles Nunavut and Manitoba, is critical because it’s considered a bellwether for how polar bears are doing elsewhere in the Arctic.
66% higher population! Well, that really pokes a hole in the alarmist’s claims, does it not?
The study shows that “the bear population is not in crisis as people believed,” said Drikus Gissing, Nunavut’s director of wildlife management. “There is no doom and gloom.”
Man, if this type of news keeps coming out, Al Gore and his flunkies might have to start working on another scam.

They say that truth is stranger than fiction. Well it is also, at times anyway, funnier than comedy!
One-third of the patients with OCD obsess over global warming. Al Gore only obsesses over the size of his bank account.
Now THAT is a great line! Hats odd to the Bluegrass Pundit!
(ABC) — A new study has found that many people with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) are worrying about the effects of climate change and global warming.
Researchers from the University of Sydney looked at patients attending an anxiety disorders clinic.
They found one-third of the patients had anxiety about the effects of climate change.
Their behaviours included checking and rechecking pets water bowls, light switches, taps and stoves.
Researchers say while these behaviours are common in obsessive compulsive disorder, the rationale was unique.
They said they were checking appliances to reduce their global footprint.
Researchers say theirs is the first study on the impact of climate change in patients with obsessive compulsive disorder.
They recommend that doctors be aware of the anxiety in the community about climate change.
Like I said, it explains a lot.
