Yeah, yeah, seen it.

"At least GW debates don't include accusations of racism."
"We're working on that too."
LOL
It must be easy working at NCAR where everyone agrees with you...but out in the real world skepticism over Man Made GW is growing.

"How would you disprove global warming?"
"You can't, that's how you know it's true."
"That doesn't sound like the scientific method."
"I mentioned before that there's politics too."
"Yes, it does sound a lot more like the political method."
"I find your lack of faith disturbing."
"We can give billions of dollars to green energy research."
"And it will enable us to replace gasoline with sun beams?"
"Nothing lost in trying."
"Except the billions of dollars"
"That's tax payer money, if we don't take it from them, people will just waste it on their families."
"Is there anything else we can do?"
"Yes, we can send billions of dollars to third world countries."
"For what?"
"Reparations for the damage caused by our global warming."
"How does giving third world dictators more money for palaces and AK-47s stop global warming?"
"It won't, but again, think of the moral superiority."

Good one, Bro!

In the real world, manmade global warming is occurring. Period.
Even if your boy Bill O'Reilly says that tides are because of God.

Global warming results not from the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, but from an unusually high level of solar radiation and a lengthy – almost throughout the last century – growth in its intensity...Ascribing 'greenhouse' effect properties to the Earth's atmosphere is not scientifically substantiated...Heated greenhouse gases, which become lighter as a result of expansion, ascend to the atmosphere only to give the absorbed heat away.-Khabibullo Abdusamatov, mathematician and astronomer at Pulkovo Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences

WOW it took 3 whole posts before a believer called somebody stupid, honestly im surprised it lasted that long.
At least we arent racists in the global warming debate, yet that is.

I am of the opinion that global warming is one of the greatest hoaxes ever perpetrated on the American people. So many people have a vested interest in this global-warming thing—all these big labs and research and stuff. The idea is to frighten the public, to get money to study it more.-William M. Gray, Professor Emeritus and head of The Tropical Meteorology Project, Department of Atmospheric Science, Colorado State University

It's funny how these fools believe in global warming and all it's false science but reject the thought of Muslim extremism despite all the factual occurrences happening around the world.

I am interested to hear from Wiggles why the good professor is really just a crackpot and an outcast. Clearly he has no credentials or experience in climate related issues.

what in the hell r u babbling bout ? who in the hell has said Muslim extremism doesnt exist ? If anything , we point out Christian extremest , and alot of the douchbag deeds done on the name of Religion like Fred Phelps etc .......... so point me to the posters here that doesnt believe Muslims terrorist are real , I will set e strait real fast .......

Well, there's Gaff...ROFL!
Pointing out one sick following of Christianity every time we attempt to have a serious discussion on radical Islam serves no purpose. It's rather childish. The Phelps crew are a bunch of crazies but nowhere near the level in regards to numbers or violence as the suicide bombers.
If you truly believe that Christianity is a bigger threat to the world today than radical Muslims, I don't see it.

FOX NEWS INSIDER: “Stuff Is Just Made Up” | Media Matters for America (http://mediamatters.org/blog/201102100007)
mediamatters.org
Asked what most viewers and observers of Fox News would be surprised to learn about the controversial cable channel, a former insider from the world of Rupert Murdoch was quick with a response: “I don’t think people would believe it’s as concocted as it is; that stuff is just made up.”
I am interested to hear from Wiggles why the good professor is really just a crackpot and an outcast. Clearly he has no credentials or experience in climate related issues.
Actually, his knowledge of the climate system is quite out of date. He still seems to think that cloud feedbacks are negative, thanks to a paper Lindzen wrote a long time ago, but virtually all research and study points to positive cloud feedback. What do you think, JJJ? What papers can you reference?
He also complains that he can never get funding. The irony, of course, is that observational systems get the vast lion's share of climate research dollars.
It's funny how these fools believe in global warming and all it's false science but reject the thought of Muslim extremism despite all the factual occurrences happening around the world.
Hunh? WTF does one have to do with the other?
A steady diet of inane denier commentary isn't good for one's mind. It's just too damned dumb.

LOL The good professor is the world's most famous hurricane expert. He had NOAA money for over 30 years, and then Clinton/Gore cut him off because of his views.

That's Bill Gray's story. The facts supporting it are rather thin.

Once again, whether global warming science is right or not, anyone who thinks that those who support it have more money and power behind them than those who oppose it are laughably stupid.

All religion is bad .....And in ways Fred Phelps is worse mentally on the survivors of the person he is protesting

Of course the Cool Winter is explained by Global Warming. That is until you get to the last few paragraphs when scientists admit they really don't know. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/expect-more-extreme-winters-thanks-to-global-warming-say-scientists-2168418.html

Yeah, yeah - if scientists are conservative with the science, you can say "they really don't know" so there's nothing to be concerned about; if they're confident, then they're just advocates and activists and can be dismissed.
Snow in San Francisco. First time since '77.
Not that the folks there need to worry much about the rising water levels in the first place though.

Consider that there have now been five, count 'em five, inquiries into the matter. Penn State established an independent inquiry into the accusations against scientist Michael Mann and found "no credible evidence" [PDF] of improper research conduct. A British government investigation run by the House of Commons' Science and Technology Committee found that while the CRU scientists could have been more transparent and responsive to freedom-of-information requests, there was no evidence of scientific misconduct. The U.K.'s Royal Society (its equivalent of the National Academies) ran an investigation that found "no evidence of any deliberate scientific malpractice." The University of East Anglia appointed respected civil servant Sir Muir Russell to run an exhaustive, six-month independent inquiry; he concluded that "the honesty and rigour of CRU as scientists are not in doubt ... We have not found any evidence of behaviour that might undermine the conclusions of the IPCC assessments."
All those results are suggestive, but let's face it, they're mostly... British. Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) wanted an American investigation of all the American scientists involved in these purported dirty deeds. So he asked the Department of Commerce's inspector general to get to the bottom of it. On Feb. 18, the results of that investigation were released. "In our review of the CRU emails," the IG's office said in its letter to Inhofe [PDF], "we did not find any evidence that NOAA inappropriately manipulated data ... or failed to adhere to appropriate peer review procedures." (Oddly, you'll find no mention of this central result in Inhofe's tortured public response.) Whatever legitimate issues there may be about the responsiveness or transparency of this particular group of scientists, there was nothing in this controversy -- nothing -- that cast even the slightest doubt on the basic findings of climate science. Yet it became a kind of stain on the public image of climate scientists. How did that happen?
