Al Gore and all his buddies in Hollywood and on the Liberal left have this idea that the Earth has a fever and that we are all going to burn to death or melt like the witch in the Wizard of Oz. Global warming is their game and their desire is to earn billions of dollars by imposing tough standards on all of us with regard to energy use. I am all for conserving energy because it lowers the bill I have to pay. I have the energy saving light bulbs in my house (where they can be safely placed) and I turn out lights I am not using but I do not want to be taxed to death to pay for something that the planet Mars has proven is not man made and that history shows is cyclic in nature and will not result in the cataclysmic destruction of the world as we know it.
Here is some news from the world of global warming. It is Spring, the time the birds sing and flowers bloom and we homeowners can get out our gas powered mowers and emit CO2. It is also the time that baseball makes its return to the national scene. In Ohio, the Cleveland Indians had to cancel all their games this weekend and the Commissioner of baseball is considering canceling all their home games this week and moving them to Los Angeles. Why, you ask? Because Cleveland had a blizzard that dumped 16 inches of snow on the ground. A blizzard in the Spring hardly seems like the result of global warming though the believers will blame it on that very thing.
Some Spring (read Easter) festivities had to be canceled or were held with folks bundled up like they were going ice fishing and this happened all across the country. Additionally, Charlotte North Carolina had the coldest April day in its history (or at least the history of when they started keeping track of such things). It flurried during the New york Yankee?Baltimore Oriole baseball game yesterday (the Orioles won) and news reports of Easter celebrations showed people dressed more appropriately for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade.
Looks like every time Al Gore and his minions start trumping up global warming Mother Nature blasts us with more cold weather. Perhaps the planet does have a fever but if it does Mother Nature seems to be cooling it off quite nicely.
