Is It Me, Or Is It Hot In Here?
by Jeffrey Jena
Why all the hats and jackets?
I’m not a man of strong faith, so I’m constantly looking for signs of God working around me. As a comic I have to believe that God has a sense of humor. Yesterday those two things ran smack into each other in Washington D.C.
In the middle of the worst spring blizzard of the past thirty years, and with temperatures in the twenties, some of those sharp minds who have “settled” the global warming debate held a protest. I kept thinking of that line from the old folk song “Oh, Susanna”: the sun so hot I froze to death.” Both Steven Biel of Greenpeace and the website for Capitol Climate Action said it was the “largest act of civil disobedience for climate change” in the history of the United States.”
So I’m thinking how many people must have been there in the snow, 20,000? 50,000? 100,000? Both of these sources claimed the crowd to be 3000. Really? That’s it? That was the biggest global warming protest, ever? There were more people than that in my freshman college biology class.
Looking like a fool out in the show while screaming about how hot it is one thing but going on Fox News and confirming you’re a moron is another. Mr. Biel hit the Neil Cavuto Show that afternoon to confirm sticking to the script sometimes isn’t the best idea. The interview is full of classic environmentalist one liners debunked by Mr. Cavuto, but this was my favorite:
Cavuto: …just the Earth in a funk. And now it’s cold again.
Biel: Well, you’d be hard pressed to find a climate scientist or physicist who agrees with that.
Cavuto: No, actually no. I’ve had dozens on this show.
This winter is the coldest in over thirty years in North America and Europe. The polar ice cap in the north, you remember the one that wasn’t big enough to chill a decent martini last year according to Al Gore, is at its thickest since 1979. Polar bears are thriving, Key West is still above water and one of the few places in the country where real estate is dropping faster than the far left’s credibility.
All that aside, my major objection to the climate hysteria is that no one knows what the optimum temperature for human life on the planet is. Who’s to say that the human race won’t thrive even more if the temperature goes up a few degrees? I hope we won’t be leaving the answer to that question up to Greenpeace.

HA…actually don't you know that "Global Warming" causes hot, cold and the occassional mild weather.
What is funny, is that the protestors don't know enough to get in out of the cold. Hehehehe
I'm a big Cavuto fan! He doesn't let anyone get away with anything, whether it's a simple quip like the one above, or a full-blown calling-out like he gave Madeleine Albreit awhile ago. You go, Neil!
And now the eco-terrorist group Greenpeace is going after soft toilet paper!
I don't know about anyone else, but I actually hope it is getting warmer every year. Where I live, we have multiple blizzards and temps in the negatves for 4 to 5 months out of the year. I tell enviro-freaks, "The warmer the better" and then laugh at the look on their faces.

Yeah, but Greenpeace doesn't care about human life. They want the polar bears and the cute little sea otters to be happy. Human beings can shrivel up and die for all they care.
I read Cool It by Bjorn Lomborg last year. It's an excellent book that really takes on the global warming crowd. One of the points he makes is that no matter how much money we throw at global warming, we'll end up having a minimal impact on the earth's temperature and that we would be better off spending the money on adapting to a climate that is a few degrees warmer (if that is the way it is going) and solving other worldwide problems, like malaria. Also, more people die of extreme cold in the winter than die of heat in the summer. (But of course, the extreme cold is now part of the global warming crisis, as well.) Sigh, no matter what happens, it's always proof that we're having a climate crisis.
Love the irony.
Joel is right.. not enough sense to come out of the freezing cold. Which leads me to ask.. if they are that stupid why would I listen to them? My dog has enough sense to get out of bad weather for crying out loud.
That's very speciesest of Greenpeace. Who are they to decide that the lives of polar bears are more important that the lives of South American tree-ants? The poor tree-ant, after all, has to survive in a small corner of the rain forest that is all that's left of his ancestral homelands after the ice age. Save the tree-ant! Heat the planet!
I'm with Latino4Liberty. I live about 3/4 of the way up Nob Hill here in Sodom by the Bay. I've always dreamed of having beachfront property. And polar bears make great rugs.

OH GROSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS….and now we found our Black Rats who may be carrying the next great Plague. Members of Greenpeace. Ick.
Climate justice? Does that mean the planet is going to sue me for not owning a Prius?
These global warming kooks are mentally ill. I heard some of these tree-hugging hermaphrodites refer to a fish as a "sea kitten".
Liberal idiots [redundancy], get help.
Why is it that the Global Warming fans, his eminance AlGore also, always choose the winter to push their agenda? So far the headlines usually show that their conference was hit with a blizzard.
Warm the earth to shorten the winters. We need to combat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)!!!
Why do the environmentalists hate people that suffer from SAD?

Just in case anyone hasn't seen this yet.
"All I can say to the polar bears is…. EVOLVE!"
Since liberal idiots [redundancy] consider CO2 to be a pollutant and humans exhale C02 I think liberals should have the courage of their convictions and go to the nearest bridge or high-rise and do the right thing. Do it for the “sea-kittens” you brain damaged socialist clowns.
Is that what a sea kitten is? Wow, each Friday, my entire state gathers in the ritual slaughter of sea kittens, which are then tossed into boiling oil and eaten, usually with sliced potatoes that have been treated to the same oil bath as the sea kittens themselves. I had no idea how barbaric that was!
In my experience, I find that the people that actually care the most about the environment are hunters…you know, those people that cling to guns and religion.
Stephen Colbert made fun of them, saying that he was going to expand his diet to land fish (cats), field potatoes (cows) and sky nachos (owls).
Is it God? I don't know but the last two years has been fun for me an a non-GW believer.
What I love is how the dems/leftists/greenies move the goalposts as they are wont to do. For a decade we've been listening to growing hysteria about Global Warming. Now that Al Gore has become "Jack Frost" and brings the cold with him wherever he goes (see Gore Effect) it's not Global Warming anymore, it's Climate Change! You can even see the new buzz word in the picture accompanying this post.
Well, duh, the climate is going to change. Up, down, whatever, it doesn't exactly stay the same. The stupifying hubris is thinking that humans are the cause of it all.
They have to do it in the winter…It's hard for Carnies to get a day off in the summer with all the festivals and county fairs going on…I think they only a couple days and they save them for Bonnaroo or Coachella.
Cold, wet and rainy here in Cali.
Wish it would warm up a bit like it did during "The Medieval Warm Period (MWP)"
Climate changes…always has…always will. The sun is the engine in this. What a concept.
Don't know how to paste links in this comment style format. (No tools). Any help out there?
Try this. Copy and paste link below.

Not Over.
Sounds tasty. I love barbecued sea-kittens.
That's pretty damn funny.
Very good point about the name change! Of course the climate changes at least 4 times a year in some places, but who's counting. I just read a report that the ice is now melting in the Antarctic. Of course it's summer now, but . OH NO! RUN – Ice is melting in the Summer!!!
The list of 'tards grows daily.

If I switch to an all-natural polar bear rug, will that reduce my carbon footprint?
I'm betting it's going to get hotter in a few months? Just throwing that out there.
Sure and baby seals make great mittens. Oops, did I go too far?
Actually it is global COOLING that causes hot, cold and the occassional mild weather.
Reject the premise. Global Warming is about control. Once an issue seems resolved/accepted, they move on to another grievance. If society abdicates quickly on an issue, it just encourages these commies.
See! See all the hate the environmentalists have? It's not just us people they don't like, but the tree-ants too! These people have no shame.
Why do I feel like we're heading into another Dark Age?
Man, too funny…..
But carnies are such noble folk ( stolen from the Simpsons)
We need to look into this warming crisis. Every year when we get to March, for as long as I remember, it warms up. We really need to spend billions on research for this (hinting to the researchers what result we expect). Once we punish those that have nothing to do with this strange phenomenon of March warming, we should have more stable weather. Have we ever had strange weather in the past? – no matter
No wonder the founder of Greenpeace, Patrick Moore quit. What a bunch of ta ra ra goon d-yays.
BTW, think God's trying to send the Global Warming crowd a message?
You sir, are a very wise man. High school grad. I'll wager. ;^)
(I mean to say that going to collage or university hasn't corrupted your world view).
Not Over.
I've always been under the impression that it isn't just "humans" that are responsible for this crisis – more specifically, it is white American males that are causing all these climate problems. Women, minorities hit hardest…
That's what my mom says. I quit college before the corruption could set in.
Sounds like Global INDECISION to me.
You forgot Catholic – white Catholic American males are to blame for all of the world's ills.
Right! I used to love cold winters and snow, but the older I get….
Frankly, "sea kitten" evokes an image of Ursula Andress wearing nothing but her knife belt, but that´s just me.
Frankly, "sea kitten" evokes an image of Ursula Andress wearing nothing but her knife belt, but that´s just me.
It's not just you. I look around the globe and see madness on an unprecedented scale.
Warming in March you say? I think I have the answer. Clearly this is all connected to that evil college basketball tournament. I'm sure if someone pays me several hundred thousands of dollars, I could produce a basketball goal-shaped graph showing a direct correlation between the two phenomena.
Karma is a very good thing.

Dear Latino
I totally agree! I say in my comedy act the I want to be golfing in shorts next Christmas, so fire up your SUV and get out your can of Right Guard!
What a great way to teach evolution to our kids!
And those that drive (GASP!) cars and trucks, they're animals, animals I tell you! GET MY GUN! Ooops, no guns allowed soon, ask Eric Holder, our new A.G.
Followed wide wide spread cooling as the ER months (sept,oct, nov) come back around…
95% of the earth's CO2 is caused by the the water on the planet evaporating into the atmosphere, another 2.5 % is caused by livestock. These idiots really think that limiting the remaining 2.5% is going to change the climate. Freaking morons.
I go to collage everyday and I'm not corrupted. Sorry, college, I'm not the "artsy" type.
I do see, with my gradeschool education (which is more than what is needed to be a pro-"climate change" scientist) that a pattern is emerging. We need some stimulus money to work more on this theory.
3000 people for a DC rally? You can draw that if you yell free lotto ticket.
Personally, I like the guy who carved the ice statute of Algore shivering.
We need to show up at these various rallies and buckets of rocks and pelt these bastards back into their miserable leftist holes. Just an intemperate thought.
John, IT'S ABOUT THE MONEY! I know you know that. Algore is getting RICHER by the day. As Obammy implements "cap and trade" Algore will pounce with the necessary soft ware and other government mandated regulation and systems needed to implement it. This scam will make Enron look like baby play. At Enron they were day trading (at night, when big Co.'s were idle) broadband and actually had a vast nat.gas pipeline, Algore & Co. will be selling and swapping government permission to pollute! The less you pollute, or SHOW them you pollute, the more you can trade off that capability. Cool scam, huh?
It's 72 and clear in Texas, shorts and tees for the co-eds!
Another thing. Only a liberal could believe that despite being around only 250,000 years, man is going to destroy a 4.5 billion year old earth. And guess who is the only one who can save it? You guessed it. The self-righteous douchebag driving the hybrid, listening to phish, while sporting the crossed out W bumper sticker.
Because we are. The left has politicized science because real science was interfering with their ability to use the "global environmental crisis" to push socialism. But it's even broader than that. Consider that AIDS research gets more money from the government than other diseases with much higher body counts. Or consider all the fake "social science" studies put out to prove political points.
And the left has the nerve to accuse the Catholic Church of manipulating science? Ha!
Who needs toilet paper if you save the polar bears!
I flipped on all the lights and exhaled all sorts of extra carbon while watching "24" last night. Heart warming AND global warming in one… the earth teeters on the edge of a deep sigh and a cow fart.
I think I may have already posted my credentials on this website, but if so, by now, it's been buried under tons of rubbish.
I worked for the Air Force as an aviation meteorologist for 32 years. When I went through school in the seventies, climate scientists were predicting the next ice age based upon 25 years of empirical data. That was about the time it started warming. By the late nineties, the "science was settled" in regards to global warming, based again on 25 years worth of empirical data. That was about the time it started cooling.
How long is it going to be before some genius figures out that the climate warms and cools on a (roughly) 25 year cycle, based primarily on solar activity which causes temperature "oscillation" in the ocean waters, which is the primary source, as well, of atmospheric CO2?
Loved it! Thanks. The skipping down the snowy path and aerosol spraying were precious.
Didn't one of those mammoths they found encased in ice a few years back still have food in it's mouth, like it was frozen in mid-chew? This earth could swallow us whole tomorrow and there's nothing we can do about it.
*Closing eyes…getting the picture*
Brrrrrrr…th…th…thanks…f…fo…for…the visuals…Getting warmer now.
See, that wasn't so hard now lefty loons.
Like Sponge Bob Square Pants sez…"Use your im-ag-in-aaaa-tion".
(I've got kids).
And they tell us that conservatives are "humorless". Geez.
Not Over.
You're HIRED! Go outside, check weather. Write it down. You are now a "global warming" scientist. From now on we shall address you as Dr. ToddM. Consult Obammy for futher research grant $$$$$. Congratulations.
You're kinda setting the bar a little high, aren't you?
They get more people than that for "faux give away" warrant round-ups in D.C. You know, a mailer telling said criminal with outstanding warrant to "report to the Holiday Inn at 7:30 tomorrow night for a free T.V." then they pop 'em when they show up.
pssst. don't blow the ending for all the kiddies that believe the hype….
See graph above. (not to scale)
Hell, I'm lucky to be golfing on Easter.
I predict that the whole "global warming" debate will heat up this summer!

Extra credit for noting spreading darkness followed by subtle , yet growing lightness as dawn approaches, no doubt a result of an uncaring destructive man-animal seen foraging in the bocage'.
Yes, very true { Algore } the noun is merely a root word; and root of much evil!

I'm worried that Cavuto is indulging on too many canolies for his own good. I was watching that segment and realized that these goons are beyond help. They'll die thinking that earth is cylinder-shaped. And I like my wipies soft and cuddly, so come me, bitches…

Rhetorical question of the thread:
How many eco-leftys does it take to ban a nasty dangerous chemical liquid from the planet.

Yeah I believe that's Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall!
Yeah I had an argument with a nephew around Christmas a couple years ago, he was a senior at college, very wise, don’t you know. He was going on to be an, “environmental attorney.” I laughed so hard my beverage flew out of my nose. He explained how we only had a short time left and if we didn’t change our ways we’re all, “DOOMED!” Just to be contrary I informed him that we were all doomed any how so just live your life, and when the Earth is done with us It’ll be curtains, and not a thing that Algore does will change the weather, lighten up kid. I could see real anger in his eyes, his indoctrination was almost complete as he stomped off. The next time I saw him he had dropped law, and was in seminary school gonna be a preacher, don’t you know.
I've been calling the current era, "The Age of Endarkenment" for a few years now, and not in jest either.
Excellent point. Now that the Earth isn't behaving according to the computer models (because they probably used falsified data), they have adopted 'Climate Change' as a catch-all to describe any weather condition that might is 'not normal'. A month with more rain than normal? Climate Change. An unexpected snow storm? Climate Change. I assume that the dire draught predictions here in CA are being blamed on Climate Change as well. What you have to understand is that this is not about weather or protecting the earth, but getting people in frenized, fearful state so they are more accepting of government intervention. If it's not climate, it's some health condition. Anything that can keep you from thinking rationally so you will believe that government is the only answer. That's the goal.
Even though the book is several years old, I can't recommend Michael Crichton's "State of Fear" highly enough. It is part action/suspense novel, part liberal tactics primer, part environmental analysis. It is easily accessible, but provides immense amounts of factual detail and source footnotes that refutes most, if not all the claims that Algore and Hansen have been living off of the last several years. Besides the story, his personal observations of how he came to write the book and his comparison of this movement to another great 'progressive' movement, Eugenics, is also worth a read.
Jeffery,
Good to see you are recognizing the Humor in God. You may be getting closer to understand him more than you think. We do need to care for the earth as much as we have control over. As you understand the amount of CO2 released by a volcano compared to what man has released in the industrial age, you see that that God must be laughing as we pass cap-trade taxes to fix the issue.
I like that, very descriptive, sadly accurate.
I like Bjorn Lomberg…he is an environmentalist that takes a practical approach to the environment. he's not one of the nuts that treat environmentalism like a cult-like religion (Kabala, Scientology). Check him out – http://www.reason.com/blog/show/130469.html
Actually, there is firm, historical evidence that does show that the human race thrives in periods of warmer climate. Prior to the Little Ice Age they raised grapes and produced wine in England, there was a mini flowering of culture that was close to breaking the Dark Ages and the Vikings sailed across the Northern Atlantic and colonized both Iceland and Greenland (got that name for a reason other than its pristine ice sheets), but then the Little Ice Age settled in and all that came to a screeching halt. It got very cold on the European continent. The Viking settlements on Iceland and Greenland ceased to thrive, one died out entirely, the Thames froze solid like it hadn't been doing and grapes stopped growing in England, and crops failed creating the weakened and sickly populace that allowed the Black Death to thrive across Europe.
Anybody who thinks we can control climate is tilting at an overly large windmill. Everything we do has some unintended effect so no matter what we do, we aren't going to be successful in controlling the climate. Even thinking we can control the climate is the height of arrogance. Having said that, I'm not against conservation and finding new, cleaner sources of energy is great.
Obama's energy plan calls for raising the cost of existing energy sources high enough to make less efficient forms of energy more equitably priced. That's incredibly short sighted, as it simply raises the cost of all energy without providing any incentive to lower the cost of alternative sources. In fact, it's a disincentive, since keeping the price of alternatives high ensures no loss of revenue to the alternative providers.
When Obama was elected I had a dollar. Now I just have change.

I've seen those. I love the one guy they had on the news a couple years back, who was still asking (after they'd slapped the cuffs on) whether he would still get the boat.
I love the fact that everyone calls him Algore. The first time I heard this was on a segment on Rush, where he equated Algore with Igor from Frankenstein. Glad to see it stuck.
If mother nature decides to thin the herd out and perhaps another species dominates the planetary scene like mammals did over reptiles, can I have Helena Bonham Carter in the monkey suit like "Planet of the Apes"?
On a more serious note, I'm not one to believe in the whole Gaia/earth holistic organism principle. It smacks too much of the 2012/end o' the world scenario which has no basis in empirical fact, much like the myth of "global warming". I always like to point out to enviro-weeners that prostitute their sound bite stupidities outside of the local Starbucks that more extinction events in earth's history occurred during freezing cycles rather than warming trends. More people have frozen to death this year alone than have ever perished from sunburn in the last 100 [this is conjecture but you get the drift].
Global warming only became a discussion of utility from the Left after the fall of communism. The Left and the Right could constantly argue over the relative merits and values of communism vs capitalism but once communism collapsed under the weight of its own ennui, the Left no longer had a "valid" ideology to argue from.
Enter "global warming" [oooh boogeddy-boogeddy]…after all, how does someone "argue" against something that was once known as the "weather"? [Especially since it's ALL Bush's fault anyway!!!!] I also like holding on to the term global warming. The Left is trying to discard in favor of "climate change" so they don't look so retarded when they are at symposiums on global warming in minus 10 below blizzards.
Global warming? Baghdad had its first snowfall this year in its recorded history!
Don't forget, during the last ice age (only 12,000 years ago) glaciers made it all the way down into the states and you could walk from England to France, and from Asia to Alaska. But now we're supposed to believe we're causing global warming (when we account for 3% of the gases supposedly causing the warming) based on less than a handful of years of data (and faulty data at that at)?
My biggest problem with this crapola is that it's diverting our attention (and resources) from genuine environmental concerns (e.g. possible genetic damage from certain chemicals, overfishing).
take away soft toilet paper?…….from my cold dead hand!
Some of us humans have become a little full of ourselves. We a species that hasn't been around longer than half a blink of mother earths eyes, know what's best for her. Correct me if I'm wrong but the planet has been so hot humans could not exist on it and so cold that we couldn't exist on it either. Perhaps we should be happy that conditions were finally in place for us to exist.
Don't get me wrong at heart I'm an environmentalist in the old meaning of the word. When backpacking, pack out what you packed in. Don't dump dangerous and toxic chemicals into rivers or the ocean for that matter. General rules of thumb for how to treat the place that we all inhabit.
Climate Change, on the surface I think everyone supports and agrees with this idea. Yes with out question the climate changes. It does so so frequently that we have a whole channel dedicated to what it's going to change to through out the day. Some are brave enough to guess a whole week out about all the changes taking place.
Which reminds me, if people who study the weather can't predict a whole weeks worth of climate change with certainty, how is that we should suddenly listen to people trying to predict weather into the centuries?
The truth of the mater is mother nature isn't concerned in the least about carbon dioxide, mainly because it's what feeds all of her plants, it's us who should be afraid of her. When ever she sees fit, we will be wiped off this planet and extinct. It's not if it will happen it's when.
Thank God I live in Arizona. I can put up with heat much better than cold. My brother-in-law moved from Phoenix to Washington State a while ago; I don't know how he puts up with the weather.
I like Pablo Francisco's joke about Boston. "When it gets up above 80 they start passing out. Meanwhile in Houston: 'Let's go jogging!'"
Gore is eating himself to death, so soon he will be a climate martyr. Somehow they will blame it on Conservatives and GW.
As for me, I used to live in New England, now in San Diego. I prefer SD.
Here is a simple test. Go to Canada and don;t take your woolies. Stop watch how fast you die from exposure.
Nuff said.
Al Gore could do the most good if he went to S. America and Africa to encourage them to stop cutting the rainforests–or to China to convince them to clean up all the coal fired plants so the smoke no longer swings across the Pacific dumping extra rain and snow on the northwest, Canada and Alaska. Or maybe a he should "invent" a way to send it over California to alleviate the drought. Yeah right. He is only intersted in the photo-ops and the money pouring into his pockets from the global-warming scam.
Read State of Fear. There's one passage that's very relevant here:
"You have already told me global warming is unsatisfactory because whenever there is a cold snap, people forget about it."
"So what you need," Henley said, "is to structure the information so that whatever kind of weather occurs, it always confirms your message. That's the virtue of shifting the focus to abrupt climate change."
Actually, those in the know have decided that it may be more accurately described as "Global Climate Change". That way, no matter which way the temperatures go, they can still stick it to you with cap-n-trade.
I dunno how he puts up with the FOOLS.
Andrew: Algore=Igor? Are you sure? I always thought it was a play on 'Alar' of the late apple scare of the 1980s
It was from a skit Rush did years ago. He was "Algore" instead of Igor of Frankenstein fame. I think Clinton was Frankenstein in the skit, but I don't remember — I just remember the main character kept calling to "Algore".
i remember reading Time, and Newsweek in the late '70's… we are all suppose too be frozen dead because of the 'coming ice age'', they were wrong then, they are wrong now. but they will never admit it…
[...] Is It Me, Or Is It Hot In Here? In the middle of the worst spring blizzard of the past thirty years, and with temperatures in the twenties, some of those sharp minds who have “settled” the global warming debate held a protest. I kept thinking of that line from the old folk song “Oh, Susanna”: the sun so hot I froze to death.” … Both Steven Biel of Greenpeace and the website for Capitol Climate Action said it was the “largest act of civil disobedience for climate change” in the history of the United States.” … Both of these sources claimed the crowd to be 3000.
