um, Bush's sec of the interior is hardly a "left leaning moron" as you'd like to think. he's the one who pushed for the re-classification of the polar bear.
In areas where long-term studies are available, populations are showing signs of stress due to shrinking sea ice. Canada's Hudson Bay polar bear population has dropped 22% since the early 80s.
global warming has been more than proven. we're now trying to determine humanity's role in the whole thing. you're way behind on that one obviuosly.
we're not seeing a drop in temps. you're just wrong. ocean temps have levelled after rising for many years. and they are expected to rise again.
and the fact remains that spring is beginning earlier worldwide and fall is beginning later. already proven.
and the arctic just had its hottest winter ever:

and I don't know where "here" is for you, but it sure ain't the west coast.
its HOT!
Ice shrinking? I was up in that region and there's tons of ice. Hudson Bay is seeing a decrease? Could it be that there are more homes and people there?
As to you load of bull on the warming, tell you what skippy, I still have a mountain of snow in my plants parking lot. Okay, it really doesn't look much like snow anymore but it's frozen stuff of some sort. Last year we had over 100" of the stuff. Over the last several years we've seen more snow, less heat and the like. Even your Sky is Falling preacher, Al Gore isn't calling it Global Warming, it's now being called Global Climate Change. In the Navy our weather people called them cycles. With over 100 years of weather patterns to compare, we're not seeing the terrible changes your team is claiming. I think it's a political move. New ice age when Ford was in. Acid Rain when Reagan was in. Now Warming when Bush was in. Funny how you didn't notice the problems when Dems were in. Too drunk or high?

so were the scientists. they have been this entire time. and by every measure, the ice is shrinking numbskull.
I stopped reading right there.
