Reality Deals a Setback to "Global Warming" Nuts

Two headlines from today's Drudge:

NORTH MICHIGAN EXPERIENCING AMONG TOP 10 COLDEST STARTS TO FEB -- IN LAST 100 YEARS...

Thick Ice Forces Emergency relief for Sweden's starving reindeer...

Of course, this would never deter a world-class bloviator like America's rightful President, Al Gore, who, as usual, is on a global mission to run down the U.S. while promoting our opponents' right to do practically anything to screw us:
MADRID, Spain (AP) -- Emerging economies such as China are justified in holding back on fighting greenhouse gas emissions until richer polluters like the United States do more to solve the problem, former Vice President Al Gore said Wednesday.
Whose side is this pompous pol on? Ours or the Chi-coms? Eight years after Americans barely saved themselves from this gasbag, Gore still resents their obvious wisdom in doing so.

Gore is typical of the shallow, snarky, entitlement-driven, wealthy socialists who've led the Democrats for decades. He regularly comports himself in public like an adolescent high school jock who just lost out being crowned Homecoming King by a couple of votes. His snarling "angry voice" sounds hilariously like Vince McMahon shilling for one of his upcoming Worldwide Wrestling smackdowns on TV. (BTW, unlike Gore, McMahon pays his investors a swell dividend.)

Eight years after 2000, the resentful Gore is still pissing on his fellow citizens. The vitriol of his extended temper tantrum is exceeded only by the revolting exploits of Jimmy Carter. Gore's relentless "global warming" campaign is the latest episode in an unscripted reality show wherein he imagines he's really President and hopes you will, too. Similarly, Carter's recent anti-semitism and international provocations are meant to undermine Bush who, however lamely, is gamely trying to get America through this century mostly intact and without our women being forced to adopt jihadist chic. Apparently, hell hath no fury like a Democrat scorned.

But back to the "global warming" that inspired today's most excellent HazZzMat rant. One cartoonist comments in colored ink on our suddenly never-ending cold-snap this week, and provides some interesting verbiage to underscore his interesting point:

You don’t hear much about the ozone hole any more. Has it gone away? Nope. NOAA and NASA say in 2006 it was bigger and deeper than ever.

But wait, you say, we implemented the Montreal Protocols in 1989, eliminating ozone depleting CFCs. Kofi Annan called the Protocol, “Perhaps the most successful international agreement to date.” CFC concentrations have been falling since 1995. How can the ozone hole be worse?

It’s not worse, says NOAA, it’s better. It’s just that you can’t see how great the Protocol is working because colder than average temperatures in the Antarctic mask the benefit. Cold weather “result[s] in larger and deeper ozone holes, while warmer weather leads to smaller ones.”

Colder in Antarctica? Al Gore told me it was melting! Al Gore told me there was consensus. Consensus!
Yeah, right. Just something else to be scared transparent of. The left may be always right. But they are never, ever happy unless they are playing chicken little and hogging the limelight as well. Makes you wonder, when it comes to "global warming," whether we're dealing with "consensus" or "coercion."

If the air in New York or Los Angeles were as bad as it is in Shanghai, El Gore might have a point, but the air in Shanghai now is like it used to be in Pittsburgh in 1945. As usual Bagman Gore excuses his clients. Perhaps he's angling for more campaign money from the Chinese, having exhausted his gift bag of secrets during the Clinton "Administration".
