Why The AP Is In Trouble

Here is the story.

Here are the words they used:

Ironically, 2008 is on pace to be a slightly cooler year in a steadily rising temperature trend line. Experts say it's thanks to a La Nina weather variation. While skeptics are already using it as evidence of some kind of cooling trend, it actually illustrates how fast the world is warming.

Let's see if we can keep this straight, shall we? Cooling is evidence the planet is warming. In other words, because the planet is cooling, we must be alarmed that warming will destroy us all. And we must act now, no time to waste.

I noticed we posted this at the same time. 5:30 at your site, 6:30 for me. The difference between EST and CST.

"Skeptics" = people not educated in American universities. People who dare not to agree with Gore. People who've never read Bjorn Lomborg .

Definition over. You may add this to your Funk & Wagnall!

(come see the piece Lomborg just wrote, I have it at my site..THE best piece on CLIMATE CHANGE I"ve seen)
