Remember how people were all upset about how the earth was warming and we’re all going to die and New York was going to get flooded and we had better stop doing everything we are doing RIGHT NOW or we’re all going to die and there would be storms and wars and earthquakes and more storms and global cooling and droughts and floods all at the same time and children starving and republicans getting elected and stupid Americans that don’t believe in Global Warming because they believe in Gawd and not in evolution?
Well, it turns out, once again, scientists were wrong.
See, science is good. The principles of the scientific investigation are correct. When science absolutely proves something is the case, it is the case. Science is not human, it is a concept, a set of core beliefs, hypothesis, facts, and theories that are correct.
But scientists are often wrong. Scientists are not infallible. They are human, and they make mistakes, and sometimes they make really, really big mistakes and refuse to admit that they made a mistake even until they die. I understand that. That’s the way we humans are. And I can see history just as well as you do and I can see an unending chain of stupid, wrong, and foolish scientists who were once regarded as brilliant and insightful.
They were wrong that 1998 was the hottest year on record. 1934 was.
They were wrong that the world is warming up due to human activity. The busiest we’ve been is since WWII, and yet, it seems the world cooled down after WWII and is only recently returning back to normal.
Don’t believe me. Believe science. Go see the data for yourself: link
Michelle Malkin does a nice round-up of the issue: link There are several people linked to from those pages that explain why the original data was wrong and what they did to fix it. Don’t believe them either. Read what they wrote, and see if it is correct for yourself by using scientific principles and methods.
All you global warming believers? YOU WERE WRONG. Get over it and move on. I won’t hold it against you that you fell for one of the biggest scams of the past two decades. After all, you’re only human, and humans are often wrong.

If you’re going to comment that the temperatures are only applicable to the lower 48 states, or that the ice caps are melting, or that 2005 is the hottest year ever, you’re going to have to provide citations.
I don’t play make-believe with global warming activists. You don’t get to choose the facts, no matter how badly you believe we are all going to die.
