Maybe its time to actually start doing something instead.

Guess he's a lapse believer

How many consecutive years of 'once a century' storms hitting the Atlantic coast will it take before you guys admit there is a problem that must be dealt with?

Kinda like you're attacking Romney? Hypocrite... Obama's had four fucking years to lower the sea, why hasn't he done it Ken?

I speculate that if he did walk into the Atlantic Ocean and started fighting the waves, the ocean would heat up and its water would start to expand, causing a rise in sea level and more evaporation and hence more and more severe storms. We cannot be save as long as Chuck Norris is not evicted from Earth.

I got past the first 11 seconds (HOPING for ONCE.....MAYBE I could for ONE TIME......agree with you) and you lost me.

The clue store is open.

Think about that for a minute. How do you lower the sea?
You could bail it with a bucket, I suppose.
The only other choices I can think of are evaporation or turn it back into glaciers.
Evaporation would require input of an enormous amount of heat energy. More global warming.
Glaciation would require an extreme temperature drop. Transfering heat energy away. Freezing the earth.
Two unlikely feats even for Super Prez.
Grab a bucket, rob.

Ya know what Ken?

Here's the deal.....the world/planet has gone through katrillions of years (6,000 if you believe in another story) of change....carbon dating (which has been refuted by many, proven by others...both sides have enough Vaseline and paper towels to keep them busy for your, my and your children's lifetimes), tree rings (which there aren't enough of to go back...long enough to prove or disprove anything) of change, valid enough to bring any discussion to final fruition).

Indisputably, whether you believe the world is 6,000 years old or quintillions....whether you believe in global warming (as in "man caused") or simply "decadal" sun spots as so many others believe....

Here is where I will (finally) stand with you....side by side....till death do us part (no kissing allowed Ken...and....there is NO chance in Hell you're going to get to look under my Kimono).

I'm not smart enough to have a conclusion here....but I do have THIS opinion....

Whether or not it's decadal advances, sunspots, Gods wrath or our own flat out incompetence....

We can do better.

And we should.

Period.

(Added....we're the first generation that actually could....change the world as to our energy usage. We should).

Actually, he's never made any conclusions regards same.

I know some think Sandy was a result or was more severe as a result of global warming but keep in mind the 1950's was a horrible decade of hurricanes with high sea levels, storm surges, widespread destruction and all the rest of it. We just didn't have Algore back then.

Sandy was a very unusual storm. First the pressure at its eye was the lowest ever measured in a storm north of Cape Hateras. Second it was a very late storm, the hurricane season is considered over November 1st because in the old days there wasn't enough energy in the northern tropics to create one that late in the year. Third was that unusual left turn it took to make landfall, caused by a high pressure area over Greenland that may have been strengthened by the amount of open water in the Arctic.

All 3 of those factors are indicative of a warmer atmosphere and ocean with more energy available to feed a storm. We didn't have any of that in the 50's.

Notice how the hard left attacks violently any questioning of global warming? In science there is no 100% sure crap that the hard left peddle with global warming or whatever they call it today. Climate is CYCLICAL. And by the way, follow the money. There are asshats like algore who made hundreds of millions on this hoax. Carbon credits? are you kidding me? Just because you are delusional, doesn't mean the rest of us have to be.
