Global cooling evidence should quiet the alarms raised by warmists

About a year ago a research was using data provided by NASA on a report. What he discovered was a consistent error in the data. He reported it, it was fixed and the director of NASA said all is well.

Some additional information. The corrected data showed world wide temps were LOWER than had been reported for the prior many years. The director of this dept within NASA was none other than the demi-god of global warming, Dr James Hansen.

It is FACT that global temps have been declining. In fact, in the last 11 years the decline in temps has taken the world back to roughly the temps of the 1950's. We have reduced 5 decades of warming in 1 decade!

What does this mean? Global warming is a fraud perpetrated by those who believe in redistribution of wealth and the deindustrialization of America.

Thanks for this article! I am going to forward it to every person I know. The truth will set us free!!!

Belief in global warming is woven in so tightly with ideology that I don't think any amount of evidence will convince them otherwise.It is to the point that GW theorists brand non-believers as kooks.

Shall we serve some up for Al Gore, or is he still convinced that he started the "internet"????

A media fellow at the Hoover Institute...
For some reason, after reading this article, that doesn't surprise me.
It also doesn't surprise me that the Hoover Institute receives some of its funding from a group that very much wants people to not accept global warming--ExxonMobile.
Just like cigarette companies wanted people to think that there was a scientific debate about whether cigarettes were bad for you or not, certain groups today want people to believe that pollution, including giving our atmosphere more CO2 than it has ever had in human history, is not a problem. If they can convince enough people, they can keep raking in the dough. And that, ultimately, is all they care about.

Deroy is a columnist. When I start hearing consensus from scientists on global cooling then I might believe it.

Mr. Murdoch ignores the satellite photos that show ice sheets disappearing at an alarming rate.

But its not about saving the planet... The alarmists, most of them, just want to control our lives. If they really think they can change the climate of the earth, then they suffer from 'God Complex', where they think they are as powerful as God himself.

MSNBC and CNN dutifully shared with us the "satellite photos that show[ed] ice sheets disappearing," but they didn't show us that the ice cap grew to historically normal extents in record time mere months later!

When the growth was made public we were assured that the ice was thin, not as substantial as the oil-mongers would have us think. A subsequent expedition to measure ice thickness was doomed by cold weather. Results from that trip and airplane flights showed the ice was "thicker than expected," and we haven't heard anything since.

The AP headline today tells us what we've known for years: global warming is about social justice and not about saving the earth.

Many in the global warming movement jumped on the bandwagon to accomplish social justice and wealth redistribution when their hopes in the USSR were dashed.

A few temperature measurements at a few individual locations are not even relevant. It's like deciding on the height of a mountain based on the size of one rock.

Where is all the temperatures for the last 100 years every day everywhere with standard deviation? Then you can tell me there is no trend w/r to the noise from a few measurements at a few locations.

Global warming is a theory for the naive and superstitious. Had these people been born in the 1500-1600's, they would have been on every witch hunt alarmists set them up to.

Thank you Mr. Murdock for using your MBA to clear this up for us. I will now turn to Sterling Poulson to explain why unemployment is at 9%.

Hardly any scientist studies global warming theory. Why should a consensus among "scientists", unless they are objectively studying relevant branches of science such as meterorology etc matter, even if a comprehensive poll were taken, and such a poll does not appear to ever have taken place.

Those in the field differ; who of the opposing groups in the relevant fields are truly scientific? Take your pick.

Evidence that global warming - all the globe, not just selected parts - is not occurring will quiet the zealots for a time but soon they will re-group, adjust their claims, fine tune their terminology perhaps, invent new excuses, continue to vociferously assert their claims and dominate the media. After all "naught but fiction feeds the many".

TimJ, can't attack the facts as presented so you attack the presenter? good, solid, dishonest debate style, must have been learned from Keith Olbermann or Rachel Madcow at MNSBC. are YOU off the grid or are YOU buying "green" power from rocky mountain power? if not, your attacks are spurious.

If I understand correctly, only 4% of the CO2 is man-made. We in the US consume a large share of the world's energy, but even if we create 1/4 of all the man-caused CO2, that's only 1% of the total CO2. What is BO's cap and trade (AKA tax and job-kill) going to do about the other 99%?

Tell it to the 11,000 residents of Tuvalu, all of whom had to resettled in New Zealand because their island is no longer inhabitable due to rising sea levels. Tell it to the residents of Alaskan coastal villages whose land is literraly disappearing under their feet as the permafrost melts. We could go on and on, but you get the point.

What a great article. Articulate and to the point. Global warming is indeed a farce, but sadly, it, like the BCS, is driven by money, not a desire for truth or accuracy. But please write more such articles, perhaps it will make it to a bigger stage, we need to spread the truth on this.

Lies, dang lies then the environmentalists.

Tuvalu, Alaska, give me a break!

Historically, going back billions of years - the earth has had ice caps only 10% of the time. That means the other 90% of the time the earth has no ice caps, no polar ice, no snow to ski on - nothing. On the long trend the earth is in its coldest time right now.

Not going back so far it was much warmer 600 years ago than it was during the 1930's or with Dr Hansen's cooked numbers out of NASA.

Satellite readings show that upper atmospheric temps have NOT risen over the past decades. This is key since the whole global warming scare is about CO2 trapping in the suns rays and cooking the earth like a convection oven. In order for that to happen the upper atmosphere must be warming. It is not.

Another evidence of the scam.

The comment about the liberals jumping on Global Warming once the USSR collapsed is right on the money. They tried international socialism with the Soviets, didn't work. They now want to try international socialism through environmentalism. It will collapse as well.

Socialism doesn't work!

If the earth cools, will the government then subsidize energy use to help save the earth fom cooling? Give tax breaks to mega coal fired electric plants for helping save us all from a fate worse than death? The libs/GW belivers should have no problem whatsoever with that idea.

It's surprising to me that "Dr. Roy Spencer of the University of Alabama, Huntsville, Morano" was allowed to publish this kind of ivory tower heresy. Certainly not in New England. Maybe he can get away with it in the south, I don't know.

A narrow snapshot in time and geography is meaningless. I can't believe the writer is so dense as to not see that. But there is a political agenda at play here, or a profit agenda. Clean up, folks. What if it is true? Oh, whoops, we die.

Deroy Murdock is a right winger. No credibility to present a balanced aregument. In fact, he was an intern for Orrin Hatch. Sorry, but don't come to this with an agenda. It solves nothing, and perpetuates the status quo.

Love it when God and nature confound the puny human mind. Timj and others will still be beating this GW drum with icicles hanging off their mustache.
