Mr. Morano, in an e-mail message, was undaunted, saying turnabout is fair play: "Fair is fair. Noting (not hyping) an unusually harsh global winter is merely pointing out the obvious. Dissenters of a man-made 'climate crisis' are using the reality of this record-breaking winter to expose the silly warming alarmism that the news media and some scientists have been ceaselessly promoting for decades."
And then there's this: "Earth's 'Fever' Breaks: Global Cooling Currently Under Way."
That should answer Barry Ritholtz's question (h/t to sunsetbeachguy):
If the above long term chart was a stock, would you short it?
Apparently the the Republican minority on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee would.
Jeb Bush still skeptical about climate change
The new Senate global warming deniers
20 climate experts call for aggressive U.S. action

I Am Not Skeptic
I am not a skeptic.
I am a Naturogenic Global Warmer.
I resent the term Skeptic, because it makes me in opposition to something.
I have an equally compelling hypothesis, accepted by some scientists (admittedly not by as many as AGW), but I can make equally profound insights into nature and outcomes using it as an AGW.

A surge in Pirates did it.....
It turns out that there are Pirate parties forming and they're all over the internet. There must have been a massive surge in piracy during the writers strike causing all the cold weather.
As we all know its lack of pirates that causes global warming and not any of this garbage about gas.

Thanks for the hat tip.
Now back to my one note criticism of Grist.
Why aren't Grister's interested in the environmental and social destruction caused by the housing bubble?

T = k X G
Actually, the warming is proportional to Al Gore's girth.
1988:
Slim Gore; Slight Warming

1994:
More Gore; More Warming

2004:
Massive Gore; Massive Warming

2008:
Reduced Gore; Reduced Warming

Al Gore's girth
can not make as equally profound insights into nature and outcomes as the pirates theory.

Gore Girthers Versus Pirate Warmers
We should each start our own websites, www.piratewarmers.org and www.goregirthers.com and invite comments. Then, in turn, we could troll each other's site.
