Theres a snow storm back east? Funny they didn’t mention it on Ms.NBC
snow-pocalypse!
I live in Pennsylvania and with both storms we have over 30 inches of snow..I have been praying to God and asking him to please return Gobal Warming and God laughs and say whats Gobal Warming!
No need for the numbers we all know Fox won again!
Will people please go out and start up their cars to help global warming kick in. Thank you.
scott jensen… i love conservatives and their strict desire to avoid facts. it’s climate change. so it gets hotter where it normally gets hot and colder where it normally gets cold. but you shouldn’t let the facts get in the way. let’s just pretend climate change is just warmer weather and then when it gets cold out it no longer exists.
and since 64% of all fox viewers who are republican only have a h.s. education… i kind of understand.
And lets just forget those e-mails that were leaked
proving the “Global Warming” is a Hoax…..talk about
incriminating evidence……Well !
tom says: and since 64% of all fox viewers who are republican only have a h.s. education… i kind of understand.
Really and wehere do you get these facts from seriously!
Your Gobal Warming Fact are faulty oh how we froget about Climate Email Gate or how bout Al Gore saying the ice caps will be gone in 5 years when the scienist said he never said that.or how bout the un getting there information from mountain climbers.can go on and on and on
omg. you people know nothing about the concept of global warming. Even if you don’t believe the concept, you might want to read up on it so you can make fact based assertions instead of snarky comments. You seem to only think it means that the weather should be warmer. Kind of in the same league as the earth being flat. Get out of your cable news bubble.
tom says:i love conservatives and their strict desire to avoid facts
Yeah Tom sure is hell after reading all that manipulated data on warming, and the melting glaciers, which have increased again by the way, we just all need to accept the word of liars and idiots and not question anything like good little liberals huh? The FACTS ARE:The Polar Ice is coming back, the glaciers are again growing Ice, Sea levels are the same as 5 years ago, FACT CHECK IT TOM
Oh, I absolutely believe in climate change, the planet’s history and the numbers prove it, however, how much of that is man’s fault is what I question, now pollution, yes,that is the fault of man but the 16 ice ages and then drastic warming periods that can be proven has happened long before man was living in anything more than a cave. The earth is someday going to be destroyed by our sun when it will eventually burn out, I guess that will be FNC fault also? Don’t let the facts get in the way of your opinion, just follow the example set by MNSBC
Gen. Elect. stands to makes BILLIONS on global warning
Climate Change is a daily, monthly, yearly, century, decade, and more occurrences. There is so many factors from sun spots, earth rotation around the sun, the moon slowly moving away, to humans. Mother Nature has a way of working with all of these. We need to help, recycle, be frugal with emission, and work on a better fuel source. I did not say Tax the He## out of us, so the Government can spend on companies that they feel are worthy (donations to them).
Can’t worry about global warming too busy idling my Hummer in the driveway.
Little know fact, Jimmy Carter all those years ago signed into law a bill that stated that by the year 2000 all homes would be built with solar panels, eh…wonder why the WHOLE nation and congress just skipped that one? Todays laws and bills passed will in 2 decades be forgotton, and when we are in the middle of a minor ice age wonder if they will call for more co2 emmsions, it’s all a joke, a moose fart puts out more emssions than a car, FACT CHECK IT, it’s true
The Earth has essentially been in a series of ice ages, about 60,000 years apart for 10 million years. We are somewhere between those ice ages. We have only been measuring temperature accurately for about 100 years. The tree rings that were used to “manipulate” theories about whether we are going away from or away to an “ICE AGE”, is only a high unreliable “theory”. Measuring accurately for only 100 years is too small a period of time to be reliable in making predictions about the future. What we can say, based on Earth’s history is that in about 30,000 to 40,000 years, there will be another ice age and humans will be TOTALLY INSIGNIGNANT in making that prediction.
Liberals love to use word pictures to describe their beliefs and to convince their brain dead followers that they are always for the better good. And they change the name whenever it is convenient. Examples: Global warming becomes climate change, The stimulus package becomes the recovery act then it becomes a jobs bill. They love to come up with titles that make the brain dead followers agree with it.
It’s obvious that ideology trumps common scence and facts with the far left.
tom says:
LOL! HS education huh? What does “wehere” mean. Is that one of those “educated” words? And you say “64% of all fox viewers who are republican” Who gives a damn about Dumbocrats or Republicans.
After reading your comments, it’s obvious you have little more than a 3rd grade education… If you could read and were willing to find the information yourself, you would quickly find that Global Warming is a hoax. This is a simple case of the blind leading the blind. As for climate change, well, I think we call that the “Seasons”. LOL what a bunch of idiots!
I say we take all the penguin poo and make fuel with it, then feed any excess poo and feed it to liberals, because they are so full of poo anyway.
I watched Doberman during a O’Reilly commercial, Instant headache, my kids cried, my dog died, my wife sighed, and to honor global warming I went out started my truck and will let it run all night and fill er up and do it again tommorow. But first I ahve to shovel ALL THE GLOBAL WARMING SNOW OFF in 5 degree weather.
I’m gonna use my awesome psychic powers to predict that Fox will win every ratings category.
See if we don’t believe in “Gobal Warming” or “Climate Change” or care about the Polar Bears.Then were all just homophobic/racist
But look at where they get there facts from Al Gore,Mountain Climbers,Hollywood,New York Times,BBC,Osbama Bin Laden(Who blames America for Gobal Warming),Msnbc,Cnn,Abc,Cbs,Nbc.Liberal Congress and Liberal Senate.Liberals good friend Hugo Chavez,Peanut Farmer Jimmy Carter.
If I missed any please feel free to add to the list!
