Real Climate Science

President Obama announces that the poles are melting down, on the day when global sea ice area reaches the second largest on record for the date.

At first I was skeptical about President Obama’s claims we are overheating and drying up out west, but now I am convinced.

Does anyone know if Obama has ever taken a science class?

Prior to 1950, temperatures over 40C were much more common in Wisconsin, but they almost never happen any more. In 1936, more than one percent of all maximum temperatures recorded were over 40C.

President Obama says that heatwaves are getting hotter and longer in the US.

President Obama predicts seven feet of sea level rise by 2100.

This might seem slightly aggressive, but is toned way down from previous Democrats who predicted 10 feet of sea level rise and seven degrees warming by 2000.

Adviser Daniel Patrick Moynihan, notable as a Democrat in the administration, urged the administration to initiate a worldwide system of monitoring carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, decades before the issue of global warming came to the public’s attention.

There is widespread agreement that carbon dioxide content will rise 25 percent by 2000, Moynihan wrote in a September 1969 memo.

“This could increase the average temperature near the earth’s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit,” he wrote. “This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York. Goodbye Washington, for that matter.”

Harry Reid blames all the world’s problems on Cliven Bundy and the Koch Brothers

Charles and David Koch are one of the “main causes” of climate change, charged Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on the Senate floor.

“While the Koch brothers admit to not being experts on the matter, these billionaire oil tycoons are certainly experts at contributing to climate change. That’s what they do very well. They are one of the main causes of this. Not a cause, one of the main causes,” Reid said.

Progressives love to criticize Joe McCarthy, while behaving exactly like him.

Blaming the Koch Brothers for climate change is as stupid and irrational as a human being can get. Harry Reid makes the Monty Python witch burners look like intellectual giants.

Heat has been diving undetected to the bottom of the ocean, at a rate of millions of nuclear bombs per day. This missing heat at the bottom of the sea, shares a strange tele-connection with the troposphere (through the ethers) which causes it to rain harder on land than it did in 1937. The exact mechanism is not fully understood yet, and requires another $10 million grant.

My dogs pee-reviewed this study, and gave it their mark of approval.

People write business plans outlaying ideas, costs, benefits, resources, and expected return on investment.

Obama’s climate plan doesn’t do any of these things. It is simply based on the idea that unilateral punitive action against the American people will somehow make the climate “better.”

Yesterday evening I was cycling up into the foothills, when a very progressive looking gentlemen slowed down his progressive looking car and started yelling “lightning” at me. I couldn’t figure out what he was talking about because I hadn’t heard or seen any lightning. A few minutes later I got up to the top of the hill and could see lightning about 20 miles to the east.

Last summer, a few days before the floods, I was playing soccer behind an elementary school on the east side of town, when the principal called all the students off the playground because of lightning. There wasn’t a cloud anywhere nearby, but there was some lightning up in the mountains about 30-40 miles away.

The desire of progressives to make the world completely safe, infringes further and further on freedom and common sense every day. Obviously you don’t want children playing in the path of lightning, but two counties away?
