As far as I can tell, Barry Obama seems to be a typical Liberal (yuk, get the joke) Arts major who has little or no understanding of science or engineering.

Since his Presidency was engineered by every mouth-watered Lib group, he has to mouth the party line.  Even if he had an opinion, he doesn't seem to have the mental machinery on the math side to articulate a real opinion.

Climate "scientists" remind me of Miss Havisham from Great Expections.   There they are, sitting in their yellowing wedding dress from 1998 -- the Last Good Year as far as they were concerned.   If they didn't have that bit of data to cling to, they might have gone on to study real sciences like Physics and Chemistry.  

But no...they cling...cling...cling...to 1998...

The researchers acknowledge that comparing 2001 predictions with just five years of subsequent data represents a very short timescale relative to climate change.

As a result, Rahmstorf and colleagues say it would "premature" to conclude that sea levels will continue to follow the "upper limit line" in future.
