Ice Age ‘07: Politically Incorrect Weather

CBN News ^ | February 9, 2007 | Dale Hurd

Someone apparently forgot to get the memo to winter about the imminent threat from “global warming.” This story says some areas of New York State have received 100 inches of snow since last Sunday and could get 4 more feet, yes feet, next week.

Oh, pardon my ignorance. Global warming, portrayed by internet inventor Al Gore and some really smart people at the UN as the biggest crisis in world history, is now about climate change. So it can get really cold, and that also means it’s warming. And if you don’t understand that logic, you probably didn’t go to the right school.

Oh, and today the Boston Globe’s Ellen Goodman compared global warming deniers to holocaust deniers. Nice. When do the show trials begin?

Remember those photos of poor polar bears supposedly marooned on melting icebergs? Did you also see the photos of the Swedish reindeer? You didn’t? The ones starving in Sweden because the ice on the ground is too thick this winter? Now, there’s an inconvenient truth.

Well, do you remember this past hurricane season? No? That’s because there were very few hurricanes of any note. The climate change prophets of doom in 2006 predicted the meteorological equivalent of a disaster epic, with cyclonic monsters out for revenge because of all the damage your SUV did to the planet. Oops. Another no-show by nature. I live a few miles from the ocean in Virginia Beach and I cannot remember a calmer hurricane season.

Hmmm…the weather is obviously not politically correct, even if The Weather Channel now is.

The city of Chicago was once buried under an ice sheet that was one mile thick.

Want to the earth to cool? Be careful what you wish for.
