"We have ONE year.. ONE election"

Remember all the propaganda we were fed about how Global Warming is a non-partisan issue? Well, it turns out it was all hogwash. No big surprise there. The Left is now enlisting Global Warming alarmism on a big scale to help get Barack Obama elected as you can see in this KOmmie THREAD titled, "Hansen on Global Warming: We have ONE year.. ONE election." Yes, me must elect Obama or it will be the END OF THE WORLD!!! It turns out that James Hansen has been making Global Warming alarmist WARNINGS for at least 20 years. In 1988 he predicted severe dought was coming to the midwest. Five years later, in 1993, the Midwest experienced extreme flooding. Also check out the current flooding in the Midwest to see just how accurate Hansen has been in his predictions. One might as well consult Jean Dixon in predicting climate change. However, the KOmmies turn to Hansen as some sort of prophet to help them elect their beloved Obama. So let us now watch the KOmmies play the Global Warming Alarmist card in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that the weatherman is lucky if he can predict the weather correctly just 3 days in advance, is in the [barackets]:


Hansen on Global Warming: We have ONE year.. ONE election

[Or your KOmmie brains will fry.]

In 2006, the great climate scientist James Hansen famously said

[Something as "accurate" as his prediction about Midwest drought?]

"I think we have a very brief window of opportunity to deal with climate change ... no longer than a decade, at the most."

[He needs that same script for use in 2016.]

Since then, things have gotten much, much worse. The Arctic ice is melting faster than expected. CO2 emissions are accelerating. Global warming is accelerating.

[Don't forget about that drought in the Midwest.]

Hansen no longer stands by his estimate that we have one decade to turn things around. He now thinks that was too optimistic. Today, James Hansen told congress that we have one year.

[Translation: Elect Barack Obama or we all DIE!!!]

We have one year. One election.

[Elect Obama. Elect Obama. ELECT OBAMA!!!]

And simply winning is not enough.. we will need radical changes in policy.

[TRANSLATION: We need Global Warming as an excuse to institute socialism.]

And if we lose...

[You will be joining the Heavens Gate cult aboard the Mother Ship. And now to the rest of the KOmmies...]

Most coverage has focussed on his statement that oil CEOs should be prosecuted. This is interesting, but I think misses the point of his testimony.

[Thanx for that confirmation that Hansen is indeed a leftwing loon.]

It's time to stop Climaticide and that means working for justice as well as having the right policies. Without justice there will be cynicism and cynicism plays into the hands of the denialists and the tactics of disinformation.

[LOL! "Climaticide." I definitely have to file that word away with "Freudenschade."]

The warming of the Arctic is beginning to look irreversible. There are positive feedbacks that are amplifying inputs. Sea ice melting is causing more warming and more warm Atlantic water flowing into the Arctic.

[Gee! Then how is it that we can still watch Ice Road Truckers who drive right over the frozen Arctic ocean?]

Republican ideology will block any meaningful. Climate related reform into the foreseeable future. We all might as well accept extinction because nothing will change in the USA in terms of politics. The only conceivable circumstance that might avoid extinction of humanity is if the oil economy suffers catastrophic and irreversible loss. Which, given Republican Rapturist ideology, is always possible via warmongering, most likely Iran. Even the complete melting of Greenland won't stop the greed and selfishness of Republicans.

[EVIL Republicans!!! It's all their fault! So much for that hype about Global Warming being a non-partisan issue.]

He seems to be mixing a bunch of stuff. One moment, it is "99% certain." The next he's saying there will be 2-meter sea level rise this century, which is certanly not in IPCC projections.

[Don't stop Hansen. He's on a roll.]

Considering that we will not take power for 7 more months - we have a little problem here.

[Which will pale in comparison to the HUGE mental problem you will have in 7 months if you do NOT take power.]

Hansen's superlative reputation makes his increasingly edgy statements deeply disturbing.

[Yeah. I found his statements about Midwest drought deeply disturbing.]

For a bunch of fear-based weenies, I don't understand why the deniers aren't more scared, really.

[I'm sooooo frightened about Hansen's incredibly accurate predictions about drought in the Midwest.]

When they try to argue that climate scientists are "bought off" by the environmental lobby. Like there's big, big money in environmentalism. These guys are geniuses.

[Al Gore seems to be making a pretty penny in selling Carbon Credit indulgences.]

Also accept the fact that this century will see a human dieoff to the tune of about three billion excess deaths. The best we can do at this point is preserve accumulated knowledge and the values that go along with reducing rather than increasing violence over time. What we're headed for is a centuries-long dark age driven by the consequences of overshoot & collapse. There will be places that manage to preserve knowledge and an enlightened culture, but these will be relatively few and far between. You want to be in one of those places. Ideally a town with a small university, farming capabilities nearby, minimal risk of town-wrecking disasters such as tornados and earthquakes, and relative climate stability. Or sacrifice the "university" criterion and search based on the rest of those, looking for a healthy local economy with a mix of practical skills. Finding those places is difficult but that's what you need to do.

[I'm already picturing leftwing monks in small universities preserving our knowledge and culture on scrolls as, outside, rightwing yahoo redneck barbarians destroy civilization in their pickup trucks.]

If Obama loses the election say goodbye to Florida, NYC and any other coastal area.

[Bye-bye!]

I am sorting out what I think about Obama coming out today in support of corn ethanol. I was a little surprised, knowing that we have discussed here the disadvantages of using corn for fuel vs food.

[Just dump that contradiction down the Memory Hole.]

You might want to repeatedly view some Holocaust pics just for the exercise. To get you toughened up. Anybody under the age of 45 is going to see things before they die that will make them sorry they're not 75 today.

[Nobody is stopping you from entering the Mother Ship right now.]

I'm no skeptic. I'm a physicist trained in meteorology. I agree with much of what is written or quoted above but what Hansen has said and will say is mostly political rhetoric not scientific consensus.

[HERETIC!!!]

I've been beseeching my parents to stockpile food for the last year, but they're generally dismissive of my concerns. What are the rest of you doing?

[Stockpiling DiGiorno pizzas.]

Anybody Have a Ranch In Paraguay that they can sell me?

[No but I have a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you.]

I'm just glad I don't have any kids, so I won't have to look them in the eye when it finally hits home to people just how screwed we are and they start looking at those of my age and older and ask. "You knew! You saw this coming, and you did nothing! Why?"

[WHEW! Thank God you didn't reproduce!]

Anybody hear laughter? I do.. It's P.T. Barnum, laughing at all these suckers who are buying into this 'Climaticide' hype.

Someone please tell me exactly WHAT the temp is 'supposed' to be?

The climate on this planet has changed so many times in just the past 10-20,000 years, going from warm and cold extremes.

As it has for quite literally millions of years. All BEFORE the advent of humans and the industrial age.

This isn't the first time in just recorded history that the artic sea ice has melted. Does anyone remember the Vikings and places like GREENland? It didn't get that name because of ice... LOL

Meanwhile, ANTarctic sea ice is now at record levels.

Meanwhile, the so called warming over the past few years has all but been wiped out by this past year not to mention the fact that the deep sea probes that have been deployed to measure ocean temps are all show ZERO increase in temp. In fact, there's a SLIGHT decrease.

What a BUNCH of maroons...

And this is to get Obama elected. Well, isn't McCain ringing the climate change alarm bell too? Or am I just dreaming you dumbshits.

"On Monday, John McCain delivered a big speech, one that outlined his position on and plan to deal with global warming.'

"Whether we call it "climate change" or "global warming," in the end we're all left with the same set of facts. The facts of global warming demand our urgent attention, especially in Washington. Good stewardship, prudence and simple common sense demand that we to act meet the challenge, and act quickly..." J Sidney McCain

http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/2008/05/12/mccain_warming/

McCain must be trying to get Obama elected too!!! Run for your lives!!!

There are those among us (that'd be you bunch of lemmings) that view global warming and climate change as a 'mindset'. A belief. Same thing with evolution. You think it's a 'following' of some sinister kind. A science siren. 2 plus 2 equals the devil's work. I, troglaman, wonder what sort of mind could come up with such an idea.

Hey Trogs.. No one is suprised a liberal like John McCain beleives in Man Made Global warming. But just because both idiots running for president think were warming the globe, dosen't make it consensus. The mindset you reference is quite false. Most of us believe the Earf is warming, but that its a 'natural' cycle that has more to do with the Sun and natural factors, then SUV's and greedy Capitalists. Greenland was called Greenland because it was once warm enough to farm on, now its too cold. So if the Earth was much warmer in the past, and we thrived, how is this warming cycle any different??

We don't think the sky is falling, and the world will end if Obama dosen't get elected. According to the posts of some of your fellow moonbats, they apparently do. Following the predictions of a guy whose less accurate then tabloid Psychic is just asking to be ridiculed. If some one sends me a chunk of fallen sky, I'll reconsider the moonbat junk science on the issue.

It's truly amazing how nihilistic "progressives" are and always have been. They hate Man and Life and would like nothing better than for all people to commit suicide. They seem to hate Man, because survival requires acknowledging the supremacy of the mind and reason and they're too damn lazy and brainwashed to develop their minds.

They firmly believe that mere existence entitles them to survival with no effort on their part required. ("I didn't ask to be born! Somebody forced Life on me, so it's up to Somebody to keep me alive, damnit!")

Well, they need to get the message: There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch.

Plus, as many of you here have pointed out, reports of the Arctic ice levels plummeting have been exaggerated.
btw, on a related topic, remember how Leonardo DiCraprio tried to follow on Al Gore's success by making his own preachy global warming documentary "The 11th Hour," that bombed miserably in the box office? Well, I was in a Borders recently (Keep in mind that Borders, like most bookstores that also sell DVDs, sells its DVDs for much higher prices than say Target or Circuit City), and they were selling the '11th Hour' DVD for just about $4.99! And it was a fairly recent film!
Well, I guess they can't give them away.

It is doubly troubling because there are enough loose screws out there who might actually bring others to harm, blowing up power plants or otherwise causing mayhem in the name of "saving the planet". Egging them on is a colossal mistake.

Speaking of Progressives (he ineptly segued), why do those who call themselves progressive want us to return to the stone age, or even to the time when humans didn't exist?

That's not progressive. That's regressive.

I was making fun of them, and how they all feel the end of the world is coming, I used the term 'Secular apocalypse' because the term 'Apocalypse' by itself tends to be strongly associated with the Bible, and the majority of the KOmmies are scared of anything remotely Christian in nature, so they'd try to frame what they'd see as the end of the world in secular terms.

"There are those among us (that'd be you bunch of lemmings) that view global warming and climate change as a 'mindset'."

And there are those among us (you know, us lemmings) that believe that "global warming" and "climate change" is a natural phenomena that has existed since the earth was formed and there's nothing we petty humans can do to sop it or even moderate it in the slightest.

No amount of wailing, no amount of blustering, and no amount of wishful thinking is going to stop a natural process that has existed for billions of year and that has seen the rise and fall of countless species throughout history.

Humans are not gods no matter how much we like to think otherwise and we have absolutely no control over the cosmos. That includes Barrack Obama. So why are so many people pinning their hopes that yet another false god like Obama is going to save them from the natural processes of life on earth? That's a foolish and nonsensical belief, is it not? Yet millions of people believe that Obama, and the other liberals, are going to save us from nature if only we believe.

So, you tell me, who are the TRUE lemmings? Those that reject the prospect that we can be "saved" by Obama (or anyone else for that matter) or those that truly believe that Obama is our only hope for the future of mankind?

Still living in Mom's basement, eh? Why don't *you* stockpile food? No job? Or flippping burgers part-time? Is this not a perfect example of Dummie thought? "Wah!! I'm scared!! Somebody do something to save me!"

Also, that idiot that wants to move to someplace with "farming capabilities nearby" -- How much, exactly, do you know about subsistence farming? Do you know how to preserve both crops and seeds? Can you slaughter and butcher an animal? If not (and I'm guessing you don't), what, precisely, do you bring to the situation that would make someone who does know these things (like me) want to provide food for you? Also, you'd better be armed, know how to use those arms, and be very willing to do so. No one who can't help protect the community in a very real way would be allowed to stay. Your degree in 'Peace Studies' or 'Feminist Studies' or 'Cultural Studies' is not gonna cut it.

How do you get situational ethics out of Rand's writing? Her rejection of altruism does not mean a rejection of ethics or require adapting ethics to changing situations.

Her morality is based on reason, purpose, and self-esteem versus the self-loathing, self-destruction and parasitism on others resulting from altruism.
