   I just have to wonder how many tin horn dictators are planning on “oil for fooding” that if it ever gets under the control of the UN. There is NO WAY IN HELL that, or for that matter any, money should be placed under the control of the UN. They’ve proven themselves to be too incredibly corrupt to be trusted with more than a couple of dollars for lunch money.

   But…but…but…what about GLOBAL WARMING!!!

   How can this be? The science is in, the debate is over!!!

   Note to all suckers, morons, Church of Global Warming Zealots, and all other assorted dopes who bought this Al Gore fraud hook line and sinker: You are idiots, you’ve been had! Now it is time to admit your stupidity, ask for forgiveness from the rest of us who had the common sense to figure this out for ourselves, and then redeem yourselves by going after the frauds, hypocrites, and charlatans who defrauded you and destroying them.

   AKD, if you’re out there, how ’bout it?

   My goodness. I know I’m getting old now when we’re once again back to the global cooling bit.

   Yep, the earth is ~5 billion years old, give or take a billion or so, but in just 40 years it has gone from Global Cooling to Global Warming now back to Global Cooling.

   What I think has really changed in the last 40 years ago is the stupidity and gullibility index of people. Aided by the MSM any frauder, any charlatan wearing a green suit is immediately accepted as a Guru and prophet.

   I think it’s time we start making some money on this global warming/cooling mania. Now what can we market? I know. How about t-shirts or hats that say something like…”RV, we’ll make it work whichever your believe is”, then sell long sleeves for cooling geeks and short sleeves for the heat geeks.

   #6 Now there’s a real enterpreneur! Sell to both sides! Whatever their particular irrational phobia is, you’ve got what they need.

   If Al Gore and other hucksters can cash in on Global Stupidity, why can’t we?

    LOL…did you guys even READ the article?!?

    I guess my friends here just…don’t…get it.

    SFL finds your little opinions on this issue rather endearing, actually. In a naive, child-like kind of way.

    From your very own link…caps are my doing.

    “Global temperatures for 2008 will be slightly cooler than last year AS A RESULT OF the cold La Nina current in the Pacific, UN meteorologists have said.

    The World Meteorological Organization’s secretary-general, Michel Jarraud, told the BBC it was likely that La Nina would continue into the summer.

    But this year’s temperatures would STILL BE WAY ABOVE THE AVERAGE – and we would soon EXCEED THE RECORD year of 1998 BECAUSE OF global warming induced by greenhouse gases.

    The WMO points out that the decade from 1998 to 2007 was the warmest on record. Since the beginning of the 20th Century, the global average surface temperature has risen by 0.74C”

    Yes, I would agree that there are more stupid people out there nowadays…..INCLUDING thousands of politically conservative “Desktop Computer Warriors” who think they know everything about a range of issues and are never wrong, when in fact they are often completely undereducated on complex issues. Most not having any college degrees in the field/’s in which they proclaim Enlightenment. Science, Economics, etc…

    Their numbers are legion.

    Would you right wingers stop taking about global warming? You have no idea what you are talking about. The problem is climate change. Some locations may heat, some may cool. But the overall trend is warming. The new term though is climate change which encompasses all of the disastrous effects brought on by greedy conservatives in their relentless quest to oppress people of color!

    As opposed to you SFL as an example, who aren’t educated but instead are indoctrinated on such topics.

    Yes your numbers are also legion. Ignorance is ignorance no matter where it is derived from.

    Welcome desktop warrior…and hypocrite!
