Even though I could host a more productive meeting by inviting a bunch of homeless guys to my house for a stinky fart contest, the Copenhagen Climate Summit continues to take itself seriously.
Political will will never be stronger, said Connie Hedegaard, the president of the conference. This is our chance if we miss this one, it could take years before we get a new and better one, if we ever did. - Politico
I think what Connie is really saying is that no one cares anymore, and they all know it. UN climate chief Yvo de Boer followed Hedegaard with a formal statement of his well-known position:
The time for formal statements is over. The time for restating well-known positions is past,
Then the New York Post issued the most dire warning of all. It would suck a lot more to live in one of the worlds 60 smallest countries than to attend Copenhagen in the style of its guests.
"Some 40,000 tons of carbon will be spewed getting this crowd together and keeping them in comfort.
That is the amount of carbon dioxide produced by more than 60 of the worldīs smaller countries in an entire year -- combined. - NY Post
Meanwhile, the man that would have been the Commander and Chief of the most powerful military in the history of the universe, donned a beret and penned a 21 line poem about himself:
Just this morning I had a man-made-climate-change Xanax attack because itīs December and itīs 85 degrees outside. Then someone slapped me and said "Hey asshole, youīre in the southern hemisphere. Itīs summer here."
I said "Well yeah, BUT STILL!!!"
The White House insists that any reason to institute new taxes climate change is upon us.
"I donīt think thatīs anything that is, quite frankly, among most people, in dispute anymore," he said during Mondayīs press briefing." Robert Gibbs - The Hill
Yeah itīs man made climate change alright! We read "the manīs" emails last week! Even if most people do believe in climate change (they donīt), could it be because the scientists whose stipends depend on the fad, produce data that perpetuates the claims? I can argue man made global warming seven ways to Sunday. But I lose fans when math is involved, so I wonīt.

The focus groups that the assholes that make money from cap and trade, green products and those that just want to control your life with guilt environmentally concerned use to judge the impact of their efforts indicate that team green may have been going a tad overboard lately.
Exaggerated and inaccurate claims about the threat from global warming risk undermining efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions and contain climate change, senior scientists have told The Times.
Environmental lobbyists, politicians, researchers and journalists who distort climate science to support an agenda erode public understanding and play into the hands of sceptics, according to experts including a former government chief scientist. - The Times
I realized today that Iīve been too hard on Al Gore lately. Like here and here and then here again, and oh yeah this other time. Today it was brought to my attention that since the Internet turned 40 years old today, and Albert is 61, he was actually pretty young when he invented the Internet. Kudos! Well, software lore is filled with adolescent genius and I shouldnīt be surprised that Albert is the stuff of legend.
Technology stars, pundits, and entrepreneurs joined the Internetīs father on Thursday to celebrate the 40th anniversary of his culture-changing child." - Breitbart
Thatīs sweet! I wonder if the party was held at Apple or Google where Albert gets paid millions to share his wisdom or if it was...wait...my roommate just mumbled something to me. WHAT!?!?! The "father of the internet" was not actually at the birthday party at all?
Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, aka Eugene Walcott, aka calypso singer "The Charmer", claims that the Swine Flu vaccine is a secret plot to wipe out as many people as possible.
Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan told an audience in Memphis he believes the H1N1 flu vaccine was developed to kill people, a witness said.
"The Earth canīt take 6.5 billion people. We just canīt feed that many. So what are you going to do? Kill as many as you can. We have to develop a science that kills them and makes it look as though they died from some disease," Farrakhan said, adding that many wise people wonīt take the vaccine. - UPI
Louis has had some credibility issues in the past. Like the time he watched himself get carried up to a UFO, or the time he claimed the flooding from hurricane Katrina was a conspiracy, or the time he was censured from speaking in the Senate for heaping praise on Hitler, or the time he invented the Five-Thirds law in an attempt to count 400,000 African Americans as 1,000,000 in the Million Man March.
Other than those limited discretions, Iīm guessing that 100% of witch doctors and other people that call themselves doctors but kind of arenīt chiropractors fully embrace Farrakhanīs vaccine theory.
It has yet to be confirmed that Al Gore, the U.N. and Nancy Pelosi are having a secret summit with Farrakhan to pitch their argument to him: "Most Everyone Will Die, Is That So Bad?".
Iīm feeling too melancholy to go through the whole "make a neat post" exercise...you get what you get.
"Global warming will leave the Arctic Ocean ice-free during the summer within 20 years, raising sea levels and harming wildlife such as seals and polar bears, a leading British polar scientist said on Thursday.
Peter Wadhams, professor of ocean physics at the University of Cambridge, said much of the melting will take place within a decade, although the winter ice will stay for hundreds of years." - Foxnews
Point One: Is the earth getting warmer?
Point Two: If so, is it manmade?
Point Three: We are in the Holocene era, one of the calmest periods of weather in Earthīs history. This isnīt normal.
Point Four: In the 4.5 billion years that our planet has been here, polar ice caps are exceptionally rare.
Point Five: Al Gore says the world will end in 2016 anyway, so a ten year ice forecast is moot.
Iīm in an unusually pissy mood today because I wasted all my time recovering the site instead of showering the world with my awesome sun beams of wit. Some little punk in Russia attacked our server in apparent retaliation to this or this posting. I am THIS CLOSE to boycotting Russian Vodka until after dinner.
In any case, the Al Gore congregation that believes Alīs sermon about the world ending in 2016 (unless we all start consuming as much energy as Al Gore does on his planes and mansions less energy) have new validation from the Governor of Tokyo.
īGlobal warming is getting worse. We have to come up with measures without which Olympic Games could not last long.ī
īIt could be that the 2016 Games are the last Olympics in the history of mankind,ī Ishihara told reporters at a Tokyo 2016 press event ahead of the vote." - Tokyo Governor Reuters
Like Reverend Gore, Ishihara is offering both doom and salvation in the same breath. He says that if the Olympics are held in Tokyo, they will be a model for sustainable energy and recycling. He offers no guarantee for the planetīs future if another city is selected.
This was a cooler than average summer, there haven`t been any good hurricanes lately, and recent polls rank global warming as slightly less concerning to people than getting the cracks in their sidewalks filled.
So if you`re one of the ego maniacs that gets their rocks off telling other people what to do to prevent global warming, what can you do to compensate? Recruit the biggest names in music to record a global warming song! Or at least the biggest names in music from 25 years ago, and some other people no one has heard of.

Good luck with all that guys. I can`t wait to hear your excuses about how you have to fly private jets to the session because commercial airlines frown on cocaine use in the cabin.
This buttwad has gotten rich(er) by hexing panty wringing nitwits around the world with his guilt trip sermons for years. But now the manmade global warming marketing team is branding their gospel as climate change because, itīs like, not getting any warmer.
Now 30,000 scientists are suing this jackass for fraud to bring the discussion to a public forum. Iīd like to think that Reverend Gore is just an idiot that believes what his researchers tell him, but the reality is the Church of Green is big business for him.
In other news, Al Gore produces CO2 every time he exhales. But he doesnīt blame himself.
