Antarctic Ice Sheet Growing?

Warming Schwarming...

We should have spent all of the money we've
wasted over the years on Environmentalism and
built up some kind of defensive asteroid shield..
Their's REAL environmental protection for you...
BTW, we really should all drive alternatively
fueled vehichles (sp?), not for environmental
reasons, but to stop terrorism...

What "Global Warming" is really about

[TrollBridge]

Before I launch into what, in fact, "Global Warming" is really about, allow me to share some insight on how preposterous the very idea is.

First of all, the only time we hear about "Global Warming" is during the summer; ironically the same time that temperature (in the northern hemisphere anyway, I'll address this later) is, in fact, rising! I really hope that the predictable rise in temperature in Summer isn't that much of a surprise to anyone.

But what really confuses scientists is the fact that this "Global Warming", aka "Summer" happens at a completely different time of the year in the southern hemisphere. I am thoroughly convinced that for the sake of some agenda (which again, I will address later) these "scientists" are ignoring all that "Winter" that occurs between the cyclical warmings, in favor of reporting a constant heightening of temperatures worldwide.

That, or course, is pure balderdash, but these "scientists" need SOMETHING to justify the millions of research dollars they leach from the public tax coffers. What is actually going on is that these "scientists" really aren't the great, prophetic thinkers they promote themselves as.

Every argument I have heard supporting "Global Warming" indicates that the effects of this phenomena won't be observed for hundreds, even thousands of years! That's easy to say when nobody now will be alive to disprove their theory. Present them with a very current, very REAL problem that affects us today, and their true ignorance wouldn't be hard to spot.

But year after year, we give credance to these "scientists" who make a good living by spouting theory and conjecture that has no basis on reality. When are we going to expose these charlatans for the fakes they are? When are we, as taxpayers, going to end the exhorbitant flow of cash into the greatest fraud ever perpetrated upon the world's peoples?

I propose we organize a similar movement that acknowledges the global cooling (Winter, for us laypersons) that is always occuring SOMEWHERE in the world. Perhaps the funding for this research should come from these "Global Warming" funds, as there is at least equal evidence supporting a "Global Cooling" theory.

Thank you for your time.
