Obligatory: Liberals blame climate change for hurricane

Oct. 30, 2012 4:12pm Meredith Jessup

You’ve heard the phrase, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire”? Well, when there’s extreme weather, there are climate change alarmists. Not surprisingly, they are usually liberals with political agendas.

Here’s a brief roundup of the latest from the left’s self-professed climatologists:

First there’s Bill Clinton, who didn’t come out and say that Hurricane Sandy was caused by climate change, but instead knocked Mitt Romney for “making fun of it.” Apparently Clinton has forgotten which presidential candidate it was who promised to lower the sea levels. Clearly that’s not working out well for the east coast this week.

Next up is Current TV host and former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm. (Yes, that Jennifer Granholm.)

“Today, Atlantic City shattered a daily rainfall record with 4½ inches of rain so far,” said host Jennifer Granholm. “The water in lower Manhattan reached 11.25 feet, surpassing an all-time record set in 1821.”

“There’s a clear link to climate change,” said Granhom. “And, yet, for the first time in over a quarter century, climate change was not brought up even once at the presidential debates.”

Gee, what caused all the global warming that would’ve led to immense flooding during the Norfolk & Long Island Hurricane in 1821… cow flatulence? And obviously Noah had to build the Ark because of camel burps.

It’s funny that such alarmists cry out about how Sandy is a “once in a hundred years storm” without acknowledging what that actually means — that these storms do happen, have happened and will continue to happen.

Leaches??? I really, really hate the thought of blood suckers, but I hear medical schools are teaching them again and AMA is approving them for certain treatments. Or were you referring to the current controlling faction of the Democratic Party?
As for global warming, some irresponsible person who practices quasi-science, or lawyer types who studied science fiction and fantasy writing as literature for their undergraduate degree, or someone who has used recreational drugs one time too many might see evidence for Man-Made Global Warming. Van Jones on the other hand, street thug who would use any excuse to shake down people.

And a big part of the so called man made global warming is from human breathing and flatulence, and people like billy boy and al gore it is hard to tell which end is gassing.

And a prophecy, June 9, 1970: “Now, we have spoken before of the great Sword, the sword which is here now that shall cut two ways. On one side of the Sword, it shall change thy earth. Its whole form shall change. Where no water flowed, water shall flow. What was a desert before shall bloom into gardens.
Now, on the other side of the Sword thy will see man. Those who should not heed God’s word, this Sword shall cut them from the face of the earth, [for] because remember, we are here to prepare a way. We are here to build an army of minds for the birth of our Savior who shall rule both heaven and earth for a thousand years. And his peace and his love shall be felt by all who would lift their hands and reach to God.
Can you understand this?”
[See The Revelation, chapters 19 through 22.]

A prophecy, August 26, 1988: “Let [it] not be brother against brother, or mother against daughter, or father against son. For now is the time of the great Sword, the cutting away of the land and the cutting away of the people − for where no water flowed, water shall flow; where grass did not grow grass shall grow, and that of the desert shall blossom forth and it shall be abundant and green. And nothing shall be hidden from the people, for they shall see all things − and these things that we say, so the Lord has given unto His word.” [See The Revelation, chapters 21 and 22.]

Yes, since you brought up a staggering total of 2 other natural disasters, one real and one fake, it is obvious that the entire scientific community who has been studying the climate and its changes over several decades is just wrong. Yeah, who needs evidence that climate change is hokey when you can name two other natural disasters that occurred before climatology was fully understood, one of which being a work of fiction?

  “it is obvious that the entire scientific community who has been studying the climate and its changes over several decades is just wrong.”
  Indeed, as with evolution and many other things. :) Often they refuse to consider the evidence fairly, because there is a political paradigm that they must bow to, or else risk the intense ire of the ‘activists’. The conclusion is decided, with violent attitudes, prior to the research.
  
  After all, this pattern has repeated over and over again since secularists started hijacking science. Research the history of science’s scornful rejection of plate tectonics, for example, in favor of “Subterranean fermentation.” Yes, that’s what they thought caused earthquakes. Tectonics stemmed from the biblical account of the global Flood, so they stubbornly had to avoid that conclusion, until eventually the weight of the evidence simply became far too overwhelming to continue to ignore.
  
  We’re in the same process with manmade global warming now. Of course, it could still happen as the sun heats over time, etc.
