Climategate turbulence

Let me be clear about this warming debate. There will be no debate while I’m President. As you all know I care about your health and I am sure that I will be able to help with that only in a cooler atmosphere, which will also better enable resistribution of your tax money to my over heated ACORN base.
Yours true,
President Obowma

Height of ironies that the meeting is in Copenhagen, when we are concerned that “something is rotten in the state of Denmark” (Hamlet) and have seen through the Emperor’s New Clothes (Hans Andersen, surely Denmark’s most famous citizen). To say nothing of the Battle of Copenhagen, where Nelson put his blind eye to the telescope in order to disobey official orders and win the battle.

i like this one from twawki’s web site

Not sure if this passes as satire , but if made me laugh…

Global warming is being dramatically cooled down over the USA LOL

Kind of interesting there’s an aircraft in the cartoon. The trend seems to be “There may be a few bad apples at CRU but it doesn’t affect vast majority of the science behind AWG. Trust me, it’s really nothing.” I have been replying in this manner:
The science is NOT sound after this past week’s revelations.
Let’s say it had been: “Last week it was revealed fraudulent engineering practices were employed in the design of all Airbuses since 1996. Though the senior engineers who engaged in the fraud have been found out, they did work on all engineering aspects of the aircraft. We conclude the vast majority of the engineering is sound so we pronounce these aircraft as being airworthy. With that, our opinion is it’s unnecessary to investigate if their work involved lavatory toilet seat design or wing structure design.”
Would you fly on that airplane?

From Lisa Benson – “So, did Al Gore invent climate change?”

i thought Phil Jones was against global warming?

Obama isn’t the only one who experiences turbulence.
Debbie Stabenow –
“Climate change is very real. Global warming creates volatility. I feel it when I’m flying. The storms are more volatile. We are paying the price in more hurricanes and tornadoes.”

if only he knew what a carbon footprint was! alright for him, but not for us

What’s that old joke?
Guard – “The lunatics are at the gate”
Captain of the Guard – “Quick, open the gate and let them out!”
