OK...so...let me get this straight...there was to be a large global warming protest (in April...not exactly the middle of the winter) and as this protest was being organized...a massive snowstorm was set to dump snow on the festivities. In fact, if you read the link below (about half way down), many activities had to be cancelled...but the "global warming devotees" were determined and apperantly held their meeting...rain or snow.

http://www.canadafreepress.com/2007/cover031307.htmRecently Al Gore received a strong rebuke from the New York Times (of all places). Here is a link to an article from Media Matters that comments on this article and more.
http://mediamatters.org/columns/200703200006My questions for you are as follows:
- 1) Exactly how much has the earth warmed... point 06 of a degree...(not exactly heat stroke!), and...
- 2) IF the earth HAS warmed .06 of a degree have the other planets warmed simultaneously? Answer? YES! Could it be...THE SUN!? http://www.livescience.com/environment/070312_solarsys_warming.html
- 3) Does it make sense to surrender our collective freedom and productive ability to a system that will yield a worldwide system of taxation and income re-distribution? Answer? NO! (less developed countries will be "allowed additional carbon offsets and have less restrictive guidelines so they can "catch up" with the developed countries, they will in turn sell their "extra" carbon offsets to the developed countries who desperately need them to continue their standard of living)...perhaps the United Nations has finally figured out how to develop a global tax? All of this based on a VERY shaky set of "facts" and hype!
- Jonah Goldberg writes that Al Gore has turned global warming into a religion. Indeed he has if you read the following. Remember, cow flatulence is the #1 cause of methane gas (believed to be a leading cause of global warming). http://www.opinioneditorials.com/guestcontributors/kroeten_20070405.html
May 8 update: Al Gore's book Inconvenient Truth has replaced the Bible in nightstands in one hotel in California... http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=CM07E05
