Al Gore's Snow Job

By Aaron Goldstein on 2.2.11 @ 12:16PM

Paul Chesser is no doubt correct in his observation that The New York Times did not intend to state "humankind has no dominion over nature" in response to today's nearly nationwide snowstorm.

The same, however, cannot be said of Al Gore. The former Vice-President replying to a question put forward by Bill O'Reilly states that this deluge of winter weather is "a consequence of man-made global warming."

It's good to know that we can rely on Gore to blow in hot air on a cold day.

See folks, the warmer temps are pushing the cold Arctic air further south, through Canada into the US.

That's the explanation, in one sentence.

With Gore, you must ignore facts, as he has for at least 30 years. Then it all starts to make sense.

I'd say Gore is a complete fool except for the fact that he's made (and is still making) millions off his hucksterism.

I had a revelation about this the other day--I've noted it at http://lwolt.wordpress.com/ but the short summary is: The solution to global warming is to buy and use more SUV's.

Al Goren said so!

"Goren" is plural for "Gore".

If Al Gore saw his shadow, would we have to call it an eclipse?

Is this a fat joke?

No see, global warming increases evaporation from lakes and rivers thereby increasing cloudcover which makes the Earth more reflective of sunlight causing cooling which brings the snow... No, Wait, that would mean we live on a self-regulating planet and climate change is nothing to fear. Poor Lefties, trapped by their own hypothesis.

Algore must be correct when he says "global warming causes more snow". The historical record is clear... every "hot" cycle is followed by an ice age. QED, global warming causes Ice Ages. And what accompanies an Ice Age if not more snow? So, again, QED, global warming causes glaciers to advance.

While this may seem to contradict what you've heard ad infinitum over the past two decades I'm certain that Blizzard Al will be proven right. And, BTW, we'll need higher taxes and more regulations to combat the coming Global Warming Ice Age.
