Get A Hold Of Yourself, Woman
December 14th, 2008 at 5:05 pm by BrianThe bomb is ticking. It may already be too late. If I’m reading the AP’s “science writer”, Jack Bauer a.k.a Seth Borenstein, correctly then the end is Nigh and if we make it ’til 2010 then it is because the Christ, Obamessiah has halted space and time to defend the chastity of our planet’s oily, partyholes from the forcible rape of human existence:
When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, global warming was a slow-moving environmental problem that was easy to ignore. Now it is a ticking time bomb that President-elect Barack Obama can’t avoid.
Since Clinton’s inauguration, summer Arctic sea ice has lost the equivalent of Alaska, California and Texas. The 10 hottest years on record have occurred since Clinton’s second inauguration. Global warming is accelerating. Time is close to running out, and Obama knows it.
…
“We’re out of time,” Stanford University biologist Terry Root said. “Things are going extinct.”
…
Gore called the situation “the equivalent of a five-alarm fire that has to be addressed immediately.”
…
Scientists fear that what’s happening with Arctic ice melt will be amplified so that ominous sea level rise will occur sooner than they expected. They predict Arctic waters could be ice-free in summers, perhaps by 2013, decades earlier than they thought only a few years ago.
Mother Nature, of course, is oblivious to the federal government’s machinations. Ironically, 2008 is on pace to be a slightly cooler year in a steadily rising temperature trend line. Experts say it’s thanks to a La Nina weather variation. While skeptics are already using it as evidence of some kind of cooling trend, it actually illustrates how fast the world is warming.
So when it’s hot outside it’s a sign of global warming and when it’s cold outside that actually means that it’s warming even faster than when it’s hot outside.
How do we know when global warming has been halted? When it’s hot outside all the time? That’s the only logic there.

From the people bitching about color-coded terror alerts for 7 years, the environmental fearmongering scale only has one setting – Fire Engine shit your pants, we’re all going to die Red.

Thanks Associated Press “science writer” Seth Borenstein. I’m pretty sure that column counts as the co-pay for a rhetorical hysterectomy administered by an amateur veternarian.
It can’t be any more painful than being preached to from Spotted Al, the Benny Hinn of Environmental Science.

You probably know this this Brian, but just in case – Seth is a man’s name.
A man with ovaries, but a man nonetheless.

You are quite correct. I do feel, however, that he laid his ovaries on the page, drew around them with a black Sharpie and turned it in to his editor.

You would think that someone who can read and write in the English language would notice the absurdity of saying a cooling trend is actually proof of global warming. Alas, I’m but a lowly network admin so what the hell do I know. I ain’t got none of those PhD thingamajigs.

All this global warming is freezing me to death.
