Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Tuesday, August 14, 2007

In the United States, 1998 ranked as the hottest year of all until a blogger checked the math. Stephen McIntyre, publisher of ClimateAudit.Org, tipped NASA this month to a flaw in its climate calculations which, when fixed, gave the designation back to the Dust Bowl year of 1934.

Toronto? WTF! I thought Zatoichi lived in Texas?!?

And it snowed in parts of India for the first time in 1935.

If anyone relied on any source other than Rush, they'd know that climate change is based on a climbing average temperature over a long period of time, which is what we have now.
Of course, next year is projected to be cooler than this year, so the righties will be screaming "ice age".

HAH! You beat me to it. I was just going to ask "Was it Zat?"

In further developments, NASA admitted that they confused metric and English measurements again as they did with the Mars probe several years ago.

It is now known that the last several hundred years have been colder than originally thought. The average temperature globally has been 27.2 degrees Farenheit, not Celsius.

This started showing up in the Toronto papers over the weekend. I had to laugh and thought about the disturbance in the force this would bring to the Drudge.

No surprise that a Torontonian spied it. Beyond worrying about how much of the rest of Canada hates us (also known as the "RoC" to insiders), we bemoan the length of the colder seasons. Given we are just about the balmiest part of the country short of the B.C. interior, it's a delightful hypocrisy we distract ourselves with.

Isn't Zat an honourary Canadian or something anyways? If not, I nominate him. He can come be our new head of state.

Regards,
etc.

Yeah, that is really funny. Who in the hell was it that claimed we were facing an "ice age" not all that long ago.

At least the righties will say in in jest. You would take it seriously if NASA told you so.

both your comments are lame....

I don't know why righties would scream "ice age", and if Nasa said we were going to start a period of continental glaciation known as an ice age, you just might want to put some serious checking into that or else 1000 years later your going to be on some museum display as the last remaining idiot not to move to warmer climates.

As it is... neither event is likely.

As it is... neither event is likely.

Which one? The one where we would actually experience an ice age or the one where liberals would believe it's coming if Al Gore told them so.

something tells me that one of those events is quite likely to happen.

And neither of those would be the events to which I was referring. Read again. I'd post it again, but I doubt your reading comprehension would improve in just one post...

On August 13th, 1945 in Raleigh, NC, the weather was:

High Temp: 79.3F
Low Temp: 72.3F
Average Temp: 74.4F
Dewpoint: 73.1F
Wind Speed: 4.8 Knots
Precipitation Amount: n/a
Observations: n/a


On August 13th, 2007 in Raleigh, NC, the weather was:


High Temp: 98 F
Low Temp: 70 F
Average Temp: 84 F
Dewpoint: 62 F
Wind Speed: 4.3 Knots
Precipitation Amount: n/a
Observations: n/a

I have a cousin in Toronto.

off topic -- would the conveyor belt current in the Atlantic have an effect on global warming? saw a show on pbs or discovery? about if enough ice melts(freshwater) it would stop and thus turn England into a very cold place to live. I personally don't buy what either side of this debate is selling. on one side we have people like Rush -- big SUVs are wonderful expressions of consumerism for the middle class -- and on the other we have Al Gore - we're doomed if we don't all convert to green energy and deal in carbon credits. Both sides have an agenda to advance. I believe the planet is warming but you know what? I don't care. I'll just turn up the AC if necessary.

Let's see....NASA...a government agency makes an error under Bush's watch...that POS. Wait, wait....oh never mind!!!

But the revisions have been seized on by conservative Americans, including firebrand radio host Rush Limbaugh, as evidence that climate change science is unsound.

Now, that's a surprise.

Speaking of miscalculated numbers. It lookslike Diebold is up to their old tricks again.
When is America going to wake up to this scam?

Evidence Suggests Ron Paul Was Cheated
Ron Paul's fifth place in the Iowa Straw Poll questioned due to voting machine failure, fuzzy figures and conflicts of interest

A host of curious events at the Iowa Straw Poll at the weekend has raised questions as to whether there was some kind of tampering with the final vote count, with evidence to suggest Ron Paul may have been wrongly placed in fifth position behind Mitt Romney and three second tier candidates.

It was reported by local TV news stations before the event that upwards of 45,000 Republicans would arrive to meet candidates and cast their votes, however this number was dwindled down to between 30,000 and 33,000 according to the Iowa GOP's projected figures.

I dont bother with Rush, or NASA, or Canadian math whizzes. I just ask God- he tells me everything i need to know.

I knew that SOB was behind it. He has got to be the bussiest man in the whole world. And the most evil. Wow!

Go Maple Leafs!

It's "Go Leafs Go!"

On August 13th, 2007 in Raleigh, NC, the weather was:


High Temp: 98 F
Low Temp: 70 F
Average Temp: 84 F
Dewpoint: 62 F
Wind Speed: 4.3 Knots

Dont forget that NC has experienced a below average summer before the past 2 weeks.


so again remind me what caused the dust bowl in 2004? i mean 1934?

hey sniper, have you ever heard of the chandler sniper rifle

has anyone else read about the cool patches, area where farm lands that are regularly irrigated are causing global cooling?

Ir is a Remington 700 with a Hart barrel and a McMillian stock. Chambered in 308. Trigger looks to be a little heavy but it is just a reworked Rem trigger. The accuracy is about what we normaly get out of our silhouette rifles and on par with the palma rifles.

What?
NASA'S doin' METH now? They made an "error" with it? WTF?


That'd explain the sudden spike in Shuttle damage during launch.

Manmade global warming is the biggest crock of crap out there. It's such B.S.

And as for NASA, maybe if they spent less time on global warming stats and more time on space shuttle launch details, they wouldn't have all these mission screw-ups lately.

Manmade global warming is the biggest crock of crap out there. It's such B.S.


Which people, specifically, said that man made global warming? Last I heard it was that man was a contributing factor to its accelleration. Or did I understand the prevelant argument incorrectly?

Zat? You seem to be the Global Warming expert, could you set me straight on this?
