Anyone notice the experts from the hurricane center discounting the media and liberals attempts to try to tie the hurricanes and global warming together?

It was shotdown on Face the Nation and NBC news over the weekend just as I said it occured in cycles just as we have cycles of warming and cooling.

Global warming is such a stupid issue I wish people wouldn't waste so much time with it. Personally my stance on pollution is much more effective.

"Do you think you can release millions of tons of poison into the air and not negatively affect the people breathing it? Yes or no."

The simple answer is "NO".

the more complex question is- Are you willing to accept a higher polution level in return for cheaper "X".

And by cheaper, I dont mean specifically dollar cost cheaper.

The answer to that ? is probably a bit more complex as well.

The more complex question is a good one, the problem is the answer from the world and this country has been unreasonable. We've decided that since we need cheaper x to just ignore the pollution problem....until some crazy liberal tree hugging lunatic comes along and makes enough noise to force something. Then we get some stupid half @ssed "solution" that does little or nothing.

It's all a matter of where the line is drawn.

I dont think people are ignoring the polution issue. Afterall, we have much cleaner burning cars now than even a decade ago. But at a certain point it becomes more expensive than it's worth. Not saying I know where that point is, just acknowledging that it exists.

Heheh. "Experts." I wonder how the current administration chose what experts to appoint to these important positions?

STREISAND DECLARES 'GLOBAL WARMING EMERGENCY'

THE SUPERSTAR SONGSTRESS SERENADED SAWYER WITH STORM SEASON ASSERTIONS. BUT TO SOME SHE'LL SOUND MORE LIKE A WINDSOCK SINGING LIBERALISM'S GOLDEN OLDIES!

NEW YORK -- This summer's back to back superstorms are proof positive we have entered a new period of "global warming emergency," artist/citizen Barbra Streisand warns.

Streisand is back on the scene to promote her reunion disc with Barry Gibb.

As hellstorm "Rita" churned in the Gulf, Streisand sat down for a promotional interview with ABCNEWS's Diane Sawyer.

"We are in a global warming emergency state, and these storms are going to become more frequent, more intense," Streisand urgently declares.

But Sawyer did not remind Streisand that a Category 5 hurricane struck the Bahamas with 160 mph winds -- when the singer was five years old, in 1947!

And when Streisand was 8 years old, a Cat 5 hurricane -- named "Dog" -- packing 185 mph churned-away in the Atlantic.

When she was 9, a Cat 5 storm named "Easy" ripped the seas with 160 mph sustained winds.

Streisand was 13 years old when "Janet" hit Mexico with 150 mph winds.

Streisand was celebrating her sweet sixteen as "Cleo" formed with 140 mph.

At 18, Streisand read news about "Donna" AND "Ethel" -- both storms carried 140 mph winds and formed 9 days apart in 1960!

One year later, when Streisand was 19, it happened again: Two Category 5 storms scared the world: "Carla" and "Hattie!"

"Carla" maxed out at 175 mph winds the year Streisand made her television debut on "The Jack Paar Show."

And who could forget Hurricane "Camille" -- which smashed into the United States with 190 mph, just as "Funny Girl" garners eight Academy Award nominations, including one for Best Picture and one for Barbra as Best Actress.

Up next on the weather warning watch, Streisand says to ABC: "There could be more droughts, dust bowls. You know, it's amazing to hear these facts."

I'll say it again. When people who try to link this with gloal warming don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. Thanks to the moron Barbra Streisand for proving my point. :doh:

My issue with Global Warming is that the world used to be flat – it didn’t but everyone believed it was. Global warming *may* be caused by pollution and human interaction with the environment, I think it’s an option that is worth considering.

The problem with saying that the increase in the severity of hurricanes is caused by global warming is that a causal connection has NOT been made and nor has global warming been shown to exist.

Here we go...

Pollution doesn't cause global warming. Are you saying CO2 is pollution? If so, then you pollute everytime you exhale. Pretty retarded huh?

Believe me, this has been "considered" for decades now. The problem is dividing fact from spin. Politics were injected into the fray and messed everything up.
