White Christmas Dream Comes True
With reports of Dallas's first Christmas snow in more than 80 years, and nearly 2/3 of the lower 48 states with ground coverage of the white stuff yesterday, my friend Joe Bastardi at AccuWeather sawhis bold-but-responsible forecast from early in the month fulfilled.
With reports of Dallas's first Christmas snow in more than 80 years, and nearly 2/3 of the lower 48 states with ground coverage of the white stuff yesterday, my friend Joe Bastardi at AccuWeather saw his bold-but-responsible forecast from early in the month fulfilled. This is what he told me shortly after I inquired with him on December 6th about the Houston snowfall two days prior:
I have been out since July with a forecast for a cold winter; the coldest since '02-'03 and the coldest December for the nation since 2000! The set up for this has been in the making for over 2 years. I think this will be the most widespread white Christmas since '02.
Undoubtedly there is more grumbling at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research -- home of the most flawed data and inadequate observing systems that millions of taxpayer dollars can buy -- about the "travesty" that this lack of warming presents. You know what I'm talking about: that "sound science" that the global warming alarmists constantly cite. Funny how the for-profit AccuWeather guys are always running circles around the taxpayer-funded buffoons and leftist leeches on this stuff.
Tell 'em again how it works, Phil?

It's just a damned shame that Washington DC was not completely covered in about 3' of the white stuff from several weeks ago until approximately March of 2010; so that our so-called congressmen, being snow bound, might possibly [mentally] reflect upon what the American people truly want and need and then legislate same into existance [or if you prefer legislate a substantial downsizing/elimination of the useless and needless governmental programs/policies currently on the expense side of the federal ledger]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Global Warming is weird sometimes. We are told that the colder than normal weather is caused by Global Warming. Using this logic, give me some Global Cooling, that would make it warmer. Then I could get on the Golf course before Noon.

The best we American people can do currently is to try to keep this damn disguised Global Empire from mucking you up.
