Another Obama 'doh moment'

[dellinger63]

This week he claimed global warming became personal when 4 year old Malia suffered an asthma attack. My question is, did he put his cigarette out before of after he came to this revelation?

BTW cold temperatures are much more likely to induce attacks than warm temperatures and second hand smoke trumps both, but why let facts get in the way.

Here are some more dumb things said about global climate change:

I don't have a position on global warming. I'm all in favor of cutting down on pollution, so even if humans have nothing to do with global warming, I have no problem with stricter rules on pollution. Do I personally think humans are causing global warming? While it is possible, they haven't come close to proving it.

Here is a good website that gives all the arguments (pro and con) from both sides:

http://climatechange.procon.org/

According to Patrick Moore who is an ecologist and the co-founder of Greenpeace, he says there is no scientific proof. He says, "‘There is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are the dominant cause of the minor warming of the Earth’s atmosphere over the past 100 years. If there were such a proof it would be written down for all to see. No actual proof, as it is understood in science, exists."

Here are some excerpts from Moore's speech:

'When modern life evolved over 500 million years ago, CO2 was more than 10 times higher than today, yet life flourished at this time. Then an Ice Age occurred 450 million years ago when CO2 was 10 times higher
than today.

'There is some correlation, but little evidence, to support a direct causal relationship between CO2 and global temperature through the millennia. The fact that we had both higher temperatures and an ice age at a time when CO2 emissions were 10 times higher than they are today fundamentally contradicts the certainty that human-caused CO2 emissions are the main cause of global warming.

'The IPCC states that humans are the dominant cause of warming “since the mid-20th century”, which is 1950. From 1910 to 1940 there was an increase in global average temperature of 0.5C over that 30-year period. Then there was a 30-year “pause” until 1970.

'This was followed by an increase of 0.57C during the 30-year period from 1970 to 2000. Since then there has been no increase, perhaps a slight decrease, in average global temperature. This in itself tends to negate the validity of the computer models, as CO2 emissions have continued to accelerate during this time.

'The increase in temperature between 1910-1940 was virtually identical to the increase between 1970-2000. Yet the IPCC does not attribute the increase from 1910-1940 to “human influence.”'

Even better when the idiot in chief was going to school in CA he claims the smog was so bad he couldn't jog outside; so he smoked pot and cigarettes inside.

None equal obama placing blame on the world for his daughter's asthma when he and his cigarette habit was likely a far more contributing factor. Then again it's par for the course.
