    Most of the media may be convinced by Al Gore-style climate alarmism, but CNBC’s Joe Kernen isn’t afraid to speak his mind.

    Joe Kernen, co-host of “Squawk Box” called the inclusion of Former Vice President Al Gore on CNBC’s list of “Top Leaders, Icons and Rebels” both “stupid” and “ludicrous.” His Feb. 11, comments came after fellow co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin suggested that CNBC ought to include Gore on their “First 25” list for his contribution to global warming awareness.

    Kernen went even further, suggesting that if Gore would be included only if the list allowed for “charlatans and villains on there” and “as long as we put Ken Lay and some of the others. “...

    Sochi is a subtropical city.

    Is a lack of snow in a subtropical city evidence of global warming?

    Now you know why Sochi was selected to host the winter olympics.

  6. Oh yeah. The IPCC fudged the graph.....before they knew what the temps would be.

    Do you ever tire of being a deranged fucking liar?

    Fact is, temps are at the lower probability bands of the models. They did not anticipate the oceans absorbing so much heat and the models while not being perfect have certainly NOT failed.


    The earth continues to warm without pause.

  9. As an example of how dumb the deniers are. I was just in the doctor's office and their drug salesman was arguing about GW with the receptionist. She was saying she believed it because she believed science. He was saying he did not because as he said "How can you believe anything Obama says" among some other dumb things like "Look how cold it has been" and "How did it get warm in the past?"

    Well of course I had to pipe up. I said GW is definitely true and I asked him if he knew what a greenhouse gas. He said no. I said, "Well that's the problem", and then tried to explain what a greenhouse gas is and how it works and that CO2 is one of them. I also told him he has been deluded by Fox News, which was rude. My bad. I must remember that speaking to people in real life is not the same as internet discussions.

    Fortunately the Dr called me in before my before my blood pressure got above 200. We then smiled at each other.

    So this is part of the problem. The deniers don't even know the most basic fundamentals of the science of GW.

  10. There is zero pause in the rise of the temperature of the earth asshole. Zero, zilch, nada.


    How many time do I have to explain that the air temp is only a tiny fraction of the heat of the earth? Just how fucking stupid are you?
