Wow. How enlightening.

 

[hondo]

About as enlightening as the rest of you saying the world is ending because we had one summer with a few hurricanes more than was predicted.

You honestly believe that's the sum total of the evidence for the global climate crisis?
Here's a tip, ask the scientists in that McClatchy story if it means what you say it means.

Ah, the simplistic "It's cold today in (insert town here) so there's no global warming" meme.

You know, there haven't been any home foreclosures in my neighborhood, so by hondo's logic this financial collapse stuff I keep reading about is a FRAUD!

hondo,

More than just annoying and sad, you're boring. Get some new material.

Everytime Hondo posts about these things, a polar bear gets its wings.

I'm just psyched because the melting of centuries-old polar ice means that the masters of European mercantile imperialism will finally have a Northwest Passage to the Far East. Suck it, Nunavut!

hondo,

I think the chilling is from oil going over $4 a gallon and people driving less.

Thanks for Going Green and saving the planet, 'do!

The scary thing is that people actually believe this ****. Karl Rove's done a fantastic job making stupid people think they are right.

Nicely done, bubs.

Ah, the simplistic "It's cold today in (insert town here) so there's no global warming" meme.

Or, "Oh my God, there's a Category 4 hurricane in the Gulf. There must be global warming."

Or science and facts backing up global warming.

Circulation is up at my newspaper, so all these posts about the industry dying are lies!

I think I've said it before, but the people who believe Big Oil's denials of global warming are probably the same people who believed Big Tobacco in the 80's.

Saying "global warming" is bogus because glaciers grow over one year, or a couple of places experience record early cold is like saying the Cleveland Browns are favorites to win the Super Bowl.

Wait a second. That's not funny.

Yes, it is. And your response just adds to the humor.
