• Slowest tornado season on record in the US
• Eight years since a major US hurricane strike – longest such period since the Civil War
• 71% of the US below normal temperatures
• Record Antarctic sea ice
• Third highest July western Arctic sea ice coverage on record
• No global warming for 17 years
• One of the slowest US fire seasons on record
• Record corn crop forecast

Obama is convinced that the climate is falling apart, even though he was sure he fixed it in 2008.

Now they are faced with open sea, wind and ice. No more dragging the boat.

They should change their motto from “rowing against climate change” to “slogging against rational thought processes.”

On July 21 1901,  seventy-seven percent of the US was over 90F, thirty-six percent was over 100F, and two percent was over 110F

In the map below, orange states were over 90F, red states were over 100F, and pink states were over 110F on July 21, 1901.  (California and Nevada were likely over 100F too, but there are no records in the USHCN database for that day.)

CO2 was below 300 PPM, and Hansen says that heatwaves were impossible at that time.

We conclude that extreme heat waves, such as that in Texas and Oklahoma in 2011 and Moscow in 2010, were “caused” by global warming, because their likelihood was negligible prior to the recent rapid global warming.

People who lived at the time probably would have said that Hansen has no idea what he is talking about.

This heatwave was extremely inconvenient for climate alarmists, so NCDC/USHCN has tried to eliminate it by subtracting an amazing 2.5 degrees from reported July, 1901 temperatures. The graph below shows the difference between NCDC reported temperatures and raw USHCN temperatures.

Yesterday they declared the end of skiing in Australia due to global warming.

Rule of law? Due process? Fifth amendment? Ability to take responsibility? Ability to accept defeat? Ability to admit you are wrong in the face of overwhelming evidence? Common decency? The right to live in a crime free neighborhood? Equal application of the law? Upholding your oath of office?

Those are just for lip service.
