Stomp a carbon mudhole in Gore's ass

Excerpts: more here:

Last Monday - on ABC Radio National, of all places - there was a tipping point of a different kind in the debate on climate change. It was a remarkable interview involving the co-host of Counterpoint, Michael Duffy and Jennifer Marohasy, a biologist and senior fellow of Melbourne-based think tank the Institute of Public Affairs. Anyone in public life who takes a position on the greenhouse gas hypothesis will ignore it at their peril. (Peril? As if a liberal can be humiliated or embarrassed -- LMAO.)

Duffy asked Marohasy: "Is the Earth stillwarming?"

She replied: "No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what you'd expect if carbon dioxide is driving temperature because carbon dioxide levels have been increasing but temperatures have actually been coming down over the last 10 years." What? Ended 10 years ago? Oh no -- now the media is going to report this relentlessly, every 5 minutes, for months and months and months. Ha Ha Hahahahaha.

Duffy: "Is this a matter of any controversy?"

Marohasy: "Actually, no. The head of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has actually acknowledged it. He talks about the apparent plateau in temperatures so far this century. So he recognises that in this century, over the past eight years, temperatures have plateaued ... This is not what you'd expect, as I said, because if carbon dioxide is driving temperature then you'd expect that, given carbon dioxide levels have been continuing to increase, temperatures should be going up ... So (it's) very unexpected, not something that's being discussed. It should be being discussed, though, because it's very significant."

Duffy: "It's not only that it's not discussed. We never hear it, do we? Whenever there's any sort of weather event that can be linked into the global warming orthodoxy, it's put on the front page. But a fact like that, which is that global warming stopped a decade ago, is virtually never reported, which is extraordinary." Extraordinary? To say the least. Perhaps the media has just overlooked it until now -- you know -- big mistake -- soon to be corrected -- yes very soon -- hold your breath.

If Marohasy is anywhere near right about the impending collapse of the global warming paradigm, life will suddenly become a whole lot more interesting.

A great many founts of authority, from the Royal Society to the UN, most heads of government along with countless captains of industry, learned professors, commentators and journalists will be profoundly embarrassed. Let us hope it is a prolonged and chastening experience.

With catastrophe off the agenda, for most people the fog of millennial gloom will lift, at least until attention turns to the prospect of the next ice age. Among the better educated, the sceptical cast of mind that is the basis of empiricism will once again be back in fashion. The delusion that by recycling and catching public transport we can help save the planet will quickly come to be seen for the childish nonsense it was all along.

Every 20-30 years since the late 1800's these climate geniuses change their mind on whether we're having catastrophic warming or cooling -- and every time they change their minds the people blindly believe them again. It's as if people are complete idiots and will believe anything -- the more outrageous it is, the more they will believe it.

But Klown -- why do they believe it?

I think they act as if they believe it and they buy into it so they will appear "up to date" and "in the know." Pathetic, huh? They are afraid to speak their mind for being thought a fool. And college professors are the worst offenders of the group-think knuckleheads. Kinda funny though -- how it works in reverse. You'd think they'd learn -- but they don't.

Bawk bawk -- run over to this conclusion. Bawk bawk -- run back over to the other conclusion. Bawk bawk -- switch again.

"Psst -- hey -- professor -- do you think the sheeple noticed we keep changing our warnings to the opposite?"

"Oh, no -- they haven't noticed -- they can't remember what they had for breakfast -- just keep bawking like you know what you're bawking about. We gotta keep that chicken feed coming."
