"Howard Frumkin, a senior official of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, gave a detailed summary on the likely health impacts of global warming at a congressional hearing. But he refrained from giving an opinion on whether carbon dioxide, a leading greenhouse gas, should be regulated as a danger to public health."
Good God ... the horrid "GREENHOUSE" gas (sinister sounding name) THAT MY PANSIES NEED TO SURVIVE should be regulated by our all knowing, all caring, government of the people.
I think it's time Frumkin retired and took his nice retirement.
Yes. It must be horrible when all those reputable scientists who represent 99% of the worlds scientists burst your little bubble of global warming denial. Maybe Bush can do the same thing he did with all those military leaders who told him Iraq would collapse, or that we weren't doing as well as he pretended we were and fire them all while replacing them with dupes.
"Yes. It must be horrible when all those reputable scientists who represent 99% of the worlds scientists"
Oh, really -- 99 percent? More made up crap. Would those be the same "reputable" scientists who said 2007 would be the hottest year on record? Exactly the opposite happened.
In fact, there's been no significant "warming" since 1998. If anything, we've had cooling.
You Global Warming Kool-Aid drinkers are punch drunk.
"In fact, there's been no significant "warming" since 1998."
There is a reason deniers claim no significant warming since 98' because if you take the warmest year as your starting point it is easy to claim a tiny downward trend as cooling.
But if you start at 1980, 1970, 1960 or any other year going back to the 1880s you get a very different result.
This is especialy funny as deniers usually claim the 100 year record isn't enough to show a trend and are now using 10 years of data to show a cooling trend.
