It was one of the COLDEST Decembers on record here in Indiana and most of the Midwest. This was also the case in December and January across the Great Plains and the South. It snowed in Florida, and was consistently below average in Southern California. Check the mid 50s temps in San Diego, Los Angeles and even Phoenix if you don’t recall. Or turn on the Super Bowl in Arizona Sunday evening to see temps that won’t hit 60.

Because of the folks who bring this Global Warming up now in 2008, of all times, for clear political agendas, I have taken time to study this, but it’s really simple. And like al-Gore, I will do so without the qualifications to opine, thus my word is equal to his….though I do lack the 30,000 square foot mansions and private jets. My apartment is 400 square feet and I drive a Nissan Sentra.

Even though the alarmists warned of a Second Ice Age 30 years ago, Global warming of some sort MAY exist...it’s just not likely to be manmade. In fact, it is not. GW is just a normal climate cycle. And it’s certainly not happening fast enough to cause the weather today, yesterday or tomorrow. This is just normal climatalogical variation for a continental temperate zone. It always works like this. The weather, as my 96 year-old grandmother said the entire 20th century, is ‘”crazy.”

Of course, when the temps are 20-30 degrees below average, like we often have seen the past few weeks here, the GW cultists tell us that WARMING has nothing to do with short term weather patterns. And when we set a record HIGH, the GW cultists and al-Gore tell us the world will end.

These events happen every few years. Again, Princeton professors like Paul Ehrlich warned of a Second Ice Age in the 1970s.

The weather is the same now as it always has been. We just quickly forget. Even the NY Times and most professors, who would normally love to eat up these conspiracy theories, laugh at, and are angered by the agendas of the cult that has become of these anti-human Gorons.

There’s always a thaw in January. Every year.  As there is in February, and yes, even March. The earth’s temperature has been increasing since the last Ice age…very slightly. And there’s no reason to be alarmed by that. Enjoy it while you’re here on earth.

Meanwhile, the unintended consequences of all this alarmism is that we’re using corn and “bio fuels” to run our cars, thus lo and behold, corn, coal and wheat are at all time highs. People might be right to complain about that when we have no corn or coal to heat our houses next winter. But the elites who know more yoga instructors than farmers don’t care…until it affects soy lattes and organic pasta prices.

Albert Gore, failed Divinity School student, unapologetic hypocrite to the core, should be in prison, not receiving awards. Then again, Kofi Anan, Yassir Arafat, Jimmy Carter and other enemies of America won the Nobel “peace” prize as well, so he’s in proper company. Basically, he just wants to make some fast money, get publicity and sell books with bad information.

With all the threats currently on America’s horizon, Global Warming is one of those issues that if you prioritize it, it is very telling about your intelligence. The other telling “priority,” or lack thereof, in my view, would be supporting a party or candidate that emphasizes such fallacies.

A ten year old could have written this same article or won a “debate” about this Inconvenient Paranoia with Gore, Leo DiCaprio Laurie David, Babs Streisand or their legions of hypocritical sycophants in their air-conditioned barns that are 45 times the size of my domicile.
