Everything you think you know is a well laid fabrication.

Well, not freezing yet Juni but the oranges are so cold I could make screwdrivers without using any ice.

Has global warming come to your neck of the woods yet?

Gee, I keep hearing these conspiracy theories about the hidden hand of conspirators. Problem is...no one ever manages to name any of those conspirators.

Well, depends on your perspective.

56 inchs snow and 10 degrees in November.

The global warming theorists most likely would point back to early 1900`s to the 61 inchs snow and 5 degrees to hammer their point home .

My perspective is hell no and a warm day would be a treat worth celebrating.

That's a lot of Global Warming!

Buffalo NY is really getting the warming trend so all the birds of warming paradise are being shared around the U.S..

I suppose this just proves that no matter how much global warming you're experiencing, someone else is receiving more!

Jwhop your whole shtick about the global warming scam its also a "conspiracy theory"... as is the boogeyman Communism.

I am surprised you don't see that. Obama is desperate to destroy America. The left are too. Conspiracy conspiracy conspiracy...

Yes and their so called facts are pure unadulterated bullshiiite which can't stand any examination without falling apart.

Yeah, Mann's fraudulent Hockey Stick graph, Jones fraudulent computer data input and Hansen's outright lying about temperature reports he produced for NASA point to a total con job by the leading lights of the Man Made Global Warming Religion.

One last thing.

A foregone conclusion is, “A result that is obvious to everyone even before it happens.” Who cares about data, evidence, or thoughtful analysis? Saddam Hussein winning reelection in 2002 was a foregone conclusion. We were told that with 100 percent turnout, he won the election 11 million to zero. Actually counting the voters or votes is unnecessary with such a foregone conclusion.

Global warming is another example of a foregone conclusion. Whatever the weather of the day, the cause is global warming. Seventy inches of snow recently fell in Buffalo. Slate concluded that this is further evidence of global warming. If it was 75 degrees and sunny that week, is there any doubt that Slate would reach the same conclusion? The only difference being that at least warm temperatures and global warming could have a logical connection.

Lake effect snow in Buffalo is not unusual. Cold arctic air picks up moisture over the Great Lakes and deposits it over land. The only thing unusual about the recent snow is its severity. Buffalo residents described it “as the worst in memory.” The Washington Post however already reached its foregone conclusion that we should not believe our own eyes; “Dear snow-trolls: Winter weather does not refute global warming.” Seems that any weather, warm or cold, wet or dry, storms or lack of, points to the foregone conclusion of global warming, just as every single person in Iraq made it to the polls on election day and voted to reelect Saddam.

Blame it on the polar vortex, according to climate scientists. Warming oceans and melting ice are weakening the vortex, causing colder, snowier winters. Huh? This year has given us, “The earliest ice on some of the Great Lakes in at least 40 years.” Arctic ice is decreasing as Antarctic ice is increasing, meaning a shift, not a net loss. How does one reasonably draw conclusions from conflicting and contradictory data? Unless the conclusions are foregone and data is simply window dressing.

The Buffalo snow has been bumped from the daily news cycle, replaced by the Ferguson grand jury decision and predictable riots. Which as an aside could be considered a foregone conclusion. But the global warming bandwagon rolls along. A coordinator at 350.org, a climate change advocacy group, writes, “It was not hard for me to make the connection between the tragedy in Ferguson, Missouri, and the catalyst for my work to stop the climate crisis.” If the gentle giant, Michael Brown, indeed went to his grandmother’s house last August rather than robbing a convenience store and assaulting a police officer, then the original riots would never have happened. If the grand jury indicted police officer Darren Wilson, perhaps this week’s riots would not have happened. The weather and climate would have been the same in St Louis regardless of the actions of the gentle giant or the grand jury. So would the absence of riots also be related to climate change?

Not just Ferguson, but also the Arab Spring riots. The Center for American Progress found a link between global warming and the Arab Spring. They believe, “The consequences of climate change are stressors that can ignite a volatile mix of underlying causes that erupt into revolution.” Never mind that a, “toothless and feckless foreign policy” led to much of the Middle East tumult. Instead it was a foregone conclusion that global warming was responsible.

What about Putin’s aggression in Ukraine? Could climate change be behind this too? Blogger John Casey makes this case, although not in the usual way. He believes that Putin’s moves, “May also be the first steps the Russians are taking to prepare for the coming cold!”
