Fox News, Y U NO understand Global Warming?

[Fire Walk With Me]

For News is using the winter weather on the East Coast this weekend to once again argue that there is no such thing as global warming.

Here is video of Eric Bolling using the weekend snow to attack climate change via Media Matters:

The US Global Climate Change Research Program addressed why more snow is evidence in support of, not against climate change, “Confidence in projected changes is higher for winter and spring than for summer and fall. In winter and spring, northern areas are expected to receive significantly more precipitation than they do now, because the interaction of warm and moist air coming from the south with colder air from the north is projected to occur farther north than it did on average in the last century. The more northward incursions of warmer and moister air masses are expected to be particularly noticeable in northern regions that will change from very cold and dry atmospheric conditions to warmer but moister conditions. Alaska, the Great Plains, the upper Midwest, and the Northeast are beginning to experience such changes for at least part of the year, with the likelihood of these changes increasing over time.”

Edit: I mean, if they can only understand one of the extremes, how did they miss parts of North American being on fire this summer?

1. I'm waiting to see what republicans in Texas have to say

When they were in the middle of their drought-heatwave-wildfire disaster I told my wife "Just wait until the first cold spell and see how many of them make snarky remarks about global warming."

We went to Houston last month. Hundred-year-old oaks were dying. Dead trees were everywhere.

3. Texas could burst into flames and Perry would still deny Global Warming ... ooops ... too late.

2. Of course the idiots don't understand global warming its has nothing to do with snow...

I have some idiot say the same thing on another blog....tell Al Gore he said.

4. They understand, they just know it's a bad idea to inconvenience the oil plutocracy.

That's their only reason for being there, you know.

5. It's a shame they're such morons.

This is *THE WHOLE POINT* of global climate
change -- you put more energy into the system
and you get storms just like this; out of season
or extreme when "in season".

(They're not actually "morons", of course;
simply water-carriers for their paymasters;
it's the American populace who are the morons,
in large part thanks to Fox News.)
