Van Jones Wants Climate Change Skeptics to ‘Apologize’ to Al Gore After Superstorm Sandy: ‘He Was Right’

Oct. 30, 2012 3:26pm

President Barack Obama’s former green jobs czar Van Jones took to Twitter on Tuesday to encourage climate change skeptics to apologize to Al Gore after superstorm Sandy because, apparently, the storm proves that “he was right.”

Jones doesn’t elaborate as to why the massive storm proves the global warming theory to be fact.

    “Jones doesn’t elaborate as to why the massive storm proves the global warming theory to be fact.” ~~~ That’s only because he CAN NOT. There is no connection except spewing inconvenient, unconvincing lies. al gore (and the globalists) grew wealthy riding the ‘man-made global climate change’ horse, and do(es) not want to get off.

      Go to http://www.rushlimbaugh.com and scroll down to the ‘Armageddon’ clock.
      There are currently 3 years, 88 days, and 9 hours before the prediction made by Gore back in 2006 comes true (or not), when Gore said that we have ten years before the Earth becomes a virtual frying pan.

      What it might indicate is the presence of some government meddling with the weather which is believed to be happening as a method of world control. Basically a military tool to bring countries to their knees with droughts etc. I didn’t know much about it myself until I looked up “contrails” after seeing something about it on the history Chanel. Their are ways to change the effects of weather systems and the government knows them and is using them. Global warming has nothing to do with it, but Gore would probably know something about what the government is doing. Do some research and satisfy your self.

      Van Jones obviously has not listened to the climatologists who preach this garbage. Even they will tell us that “Climate is not the same as Weather.” “Climate happens over centuries and millenia.” “Climate cannot be observed in a single lifetime.”
      One degree over the last century is not exactly a smoking gun.

      They also leave out the one thing they cherish and taunt; they brag about records being broken…. like the one of rainfall being 11.25 ft set in 1821…. soooooo what happened in 1821 to create that much rainfall Van Al? Please someone call them out about records being broken in the first place.

      Ask them what was happening when the records were “first set”? Please have them tell us about the global warming taking place 191 years ago!

      The window in my dinning room faces East. Six months ago the Sun was rising in the left part on the window and now it’s rising in the right side.

      What the hell is going on! The Sun itself is just going all wobbly. Are we all going to fry?

      It’s even got warmer this Summer compared to last Winter and I had to use the A\C for months!!!!

      I’m a political scientist. I have a theory that the more socialism that you enact, the more frequent and devastating the natural disasters that follow. My model shows this is a true correlation. The only hope for the world is to abolish with prejudice all social programs that force some men to support others in any way, shape or form. If we don’t do that, my model predicts that devastating earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, and tsunamis will kill thousands more. Global warming is just a diversionary theory offered by the socialists to distract the public’s attention from their responsibility for all these disasters.

      Ask the bonehead what the “ocean energy budget” is, or maybe throw him a curve with the terms “albedo” and “solar gain”. They are too stupid to know the difference between “weather” and “climate”.
      Here’s a hint for the brain dead left tards: It takes millions of years worth of data to properly model climate change. The ONLY source we have for this data exists in ice samples, which, by their very nature can only fill in a local area’s data set. Greenland and Antarctica are their primary sources for this science. Ask them what were the CO2 concentrations on the super continent Pangea and they will just have a blank stare. We don’t know that, but we do know this…….right.

      They have NO data. Give it up Van the Stupid, you brought a butter knife to an artillery barrage.

      @ Anonymous T. Irrelevant

      Trust me, I’m right. I’m a pilot, and it’s one of the first things we learn regarding meteorology.

      The Sun heats the Earth’s surface unevenly which causes changes in temperature and pressure. This in turn causes air circulation due to air temperature variations which causes atmospheric instability and eventually carries moisture into the upper atmosphere. When the moisture cools to the dew point we see a cloud. When the air becomes too saturated with moisture we see rain. When Al Gore gets a-hold of this information we see chaos.

      :)

      Without a source of radiation there would be NO weather.

    Here in Ohio we’re feeling the affects of the hurricane. I’ll give Mr. Jones the benefit of the doubt because he probably didn’t stand outside yesterday for 30 minutes freezing his **** of while the wind blew at 30mph. And he probably didn’t go outside this morning and see the snow coming down quite hard. And Mr. Gore probably didn’t either, so maybe you two should come on down and stand outside a few hours and we’ll see if your face gets numb.

He’s been hustling (is that a dog whistle?) the redistribution game of “global warming” for years so he pounces on anything he can get his hands on to make a few bucks and to upset the political status quo to push his communist agenda. People are hurting and Van Jones pushes for political points.

      After he got done with his probation from Global Cooling that Al Gore was pushing in the 70′s, they predicted NYC would be under glaciers etc etc. There extremism is constant in every direction and when you try to insert the truth they even take that to the extreme.

      “TRUTH IS CLIMATE CHANGE HAPPENS MINUTE TO MINUTE” may not be the truth that Al Gore wants but it is and with the earth rotating on an axis and that axis wobbles it is inconsistent at best. And when its wobble changes every 25K years by +/- 3* then you have to lie about the end.

      Just look at his run for president in 2000 he yelled Voter Fraud in Florida and he did not even win the state after a newspaper did a full and unbiased recount of the votes. But when you pick and choose the numbers you use to make your point you are bound to loose when the truth comes out.

      CO2 is getting higher but the planet is in a cooling trend when the true data is used how can that be when EPA declares CO2 a pollutant and plants use it to create oxygen through photosynthesis.

      So do we need to cut down all the rain forest since they need CO2 land it does not fit the Global Warming Mantra crowd…
