    What A Global Warming "Hoax" Looks Like

    From the link below:

    "Please don’t sweat the 2,132 new high temperature marks in June—remember, climate change is a hoax. The first to figure this out was Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe, who in fact called it “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people,” apparently topping even the staged moon landing. But others have been catching on. Speaker of the House John Boehner pointed out that the idea that carbon dioxide is “harmful to the environment is almost comical.” The always cautious Mitt Romney scoffed at any damage too: “Scientists will figure that out ten, twenty, fifty years from now,” he said during the primaries.

    Still, you have to admit: for a hoax, it’s got excellent production values.

    Consider the last few weeks:".....

    This is yet another instance of a Fox news viewer being misinformed. (The Earth's seasons are not caused by the differences in the distance from the Sun throughout the year. The seasons are the result of the tilt of the Earth's axis.)

    Nope. Wrong Again Gloria. How many WAG's are you up to now?

    As any school kid could tell you...except, apparently, the ones who were home skooled...the earth is closest to the sun at perihelion which is in January and farthest away at aphelion which is in July.

    And here's another schocker for you. It's only summer on your side of the equator. It's winter right now for everyone south of it.

    Happy Googling.

    Ill, you have to remember that facts are meant to be ignored because they are nothing more than hoaxes.

    We have summer every year, but that doesn't account for all time high record temperatures. If it's "just summer" why didn't we see these temperatures in 1980 or 1950 or 1900. A few days ago Knoxville Tenn. (close to me) hit 105, the hottest temp. they have ever recorded in history. All around me in recent days have been record or near record highs. It's not a coincidence that it's happening now.

    No, we don't think it's a coincidence either. Most of the all time highs we are breaking this year were set within the last decade (for us many were set last year) and next week we are supposed to be below average (I hope their right). But that's one of the affects of Global Warming the swings in warmer/cooler, wetter/dryer average. There seem to be no long term average anymore, but if you look year to year each one seems to be getting warmer.

    I dunno, Yogi. When the NWS says the heat index is 110 to 115 degrees outside my door and I step outside, you will really have to have a good line of you know what to convince me it is a hoax.

    I tried to keep it simple......so even you could grasp the point.

    Let's try agian. A little "science" quizz:

    1) What warms the Earth? (Hint..three letter word)
    2) Why does it get warmer in the Summer and colder in the Winter? (You can make it along drawn out psudo scientific essay and use big words like "perihelion" and "aphelion" but for a correct answer you must use the words "tilt" and "axis". You are welcome to include the theory of man-made global warming in your discussion but be sure to reference any actual scientific experiment PROVING the theory is nothing more than a hoax.

    Good luck, and remember no cheating.
