When Australia was having record cold a few weeks ago, McKibben wasn’t interested. But now that the US has turned cold and snowy, Bill has gone south – like Kathy Griffin on New Year’s Eve.
The hottest day in Australia was January 16, 1889 when the temperature hit 128F. The chances of that record being beaten are close to zero.

FBI statistics show that the Feinstein/Bloomberg gun grab has no factual basis. American’s odds of being killed by an assault rifle are close to zero.
WASHINGTON (CBS DC) – Annual FBI crime statistics show that more people are killed with clubs and hammers each year than by rifles or shotguns.
In 2011, there were 323 murders committed with a rifle but 496 murders committed with hammers and clubs. There were 356 murders in which a shotgun was the deadly weapon of choice.

By contrast, there were eleven million automobile accidents and more than 35,000 people killed in automobile accidents in the US in 2011.

Snow extends all the way to Mexico because of an overheated atmosphere which is melting down the planet.
Northern Hemisphere December snow extent was the greatest on record, and has increased by more than 20,000 Manhattans since the 1960s.

The IPCC predicted the exact opposite, because they have no idea what they are talking about.

On December 7, NRDC forecast the end of Utah skiing.
Over the following three weeks after their forecast of doom, Alta received an average of one inch of snow every five hours.

Feinstein hates humans and believes that all aspects of their lives need to be controlled and contained. Californians return her to the senate over and over again, because they have no self-respect.
Global Warming: A Time to Act
An international consensus has been forged: Global warming is real. It is already happening. And greenhouse gas emissions produced by human activity, such as the burning of fossil fuels, tropical deforestation, and agriculture – are the leading cause of that warming.
The earth has already warmed 1 degree Fahrenheit – and scientists predict that the warming trend will continue in the decades to come. The simple truth is that the warming cannot be stopped, but it can be slowed. We are at a tipping point: If the earth warms 1 to 2 degrees Fahrenheit, the impact will be manageable, and we can adapt. But if the earth warms 4 to 10 degrees, the effects will be catastrophic. The question becomes, what can we do? The reality is that there is no silver bullet. There is no single solution. We need many answers and people of common purpose working together.
That is why I am working on a comprehensive package of legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions – the leading cause of global warming – from all sectors of the economy. Every business, home, and industry will have to do its part.
Global Warming: A Time to Act – – United States Senator Dianne Feinstein
The Journal News has determined that everyone who protects themselves by possessing a gun is a hard core criminal.
Now that they are protecting themselves with guns, the paper should self-terminate their parasitic existence as a felonious organization.
America is in a deep freeze and fossil fuels are keeping millions of people alive. McKitten is all excited at the idea of cutting off everybody else from this essential commodity.
Bill should travel on wind powered aircraft and tweet on a wood-burning Internet.
If the supply of fossil fuels got cut off, every tree in Vermont would get cut down. Being a progressive means having no brain.
Obama had it backwards (as always.) The bitter people are the ones who worship the false religion of global warming, and fear guns. The rest of us are having a great time.
When I was driving back to Fort Collins on Tuesday, I stopped on some public lands in sub-zero weather, and fired a few 5.45×39 rifle rounds at a rock about 30 yards away. That broke up an eight hour drive – and was great fun.
The NRA proposed that armed policeman guard our most precious asset. Piers Morgan and the rest of his communist progressives then had a world class temper tantrum, because the NRA idea made perfect sense.
The youngsters who survived the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary returned to class Thursday for the first time since the shooting rampage, settling in at their old, familiar desks but in a different school in a different town.
Classes resumed for the first time since last month’s shooting in Newtown, where a gunman killed 20 first-graders and six educators.
With their original school still being treated as a crime scene, the more than 400 students are attending classes at a refurbished school in the neighboring town of Monroe. Law enforcement officers have been guarding the new school, and by the reckoning of police, it is “the safest school in America.”
