Idiots: Green party blames #WorldSeries rain delay on 'global warming'

From the “say anything even though it makes us look like idiots” department.

Yes, there was a brief rain delay during Game 7 of the World Series … just long enough for the Green Party to blame global warming. Seriously, the science wizards behind the party’s Twitter account asserted that it “should” be snowing in Cleveland on November 3. It’s November, it’s Cleveland … it’s called science, people.

The tweet has since been deleted, but thankfully, the Internet never forgets:

Umm, I was watching that rainstorm last night, and made screencaps of the brief shower before and after it passed

I wrote on my Facebook account:

have a short window of opportunity for the 9th inning

“the storm is moving northeast it looks like we’ll be clear for Inning 10 of the World Series”

For the gazillionth time:

IT”S WEATHER

WEATHER IS NOT CLIMATE!

Plus that, in November 1908, the last time the Cubs won the World Series, it was 72 degrees in Cleveland:

Anthony: They’re blaming cow farts. California is planning to outlaw cows. There are no longer any boundaries to this insanity.

I bet you could support a BS claim (or maybe not even BS) that movie making and wine making “contribute to Climate Change.” I think California should ban those too, and see how that goes.

With luck that bunch will be voting Jill Stein.

I think all the AGW True Believers should vote for Jill Stein. That way the Dunce-o-crats can be appropriately divided and marginalized.

If there was snow in Cleveland now they’d be calling it ‘unprecedented’ and attributing it to man made global warming, climate change, climate chaos or whatever term de jour is in vogue now. As we say in Ireland “you’re never finished with a fool”.
