MSNBC's Dylan Ratigan is an example of a typical man-made global warming kook.

Quote:

MSNBC's Ratigan Blames 'Snowpocalypse' on Global Warming | NewsBusters.org

"Why is that? The thinking that warmer air temperatures on the earth, a higher air temperature, has a greater capacity to hold moisture at any temperature," Ratigan said. "And then as winter comes in, that warm air cools full of water, and you get heavier precipitation on a more regular basis. In fact, you could argue these storms are not evidence of a lack of global warming, but are evidence of global warming - thus the 26 inches of snowfall in the DC area and the second giant storm this year."

Someone want to show me the science on what I highlighted in pink?

Does anyone see the irony in that the Senate Summit on Global Warming was canceled today due to the massive snowfall they are experiencing. Just sayin'.

Its not as if it has not been cold enough to snow there.

Speaking of Minnesota, I here it's been too cold for 0bama's green energy initiative. LOL

What a waste. What works in the desert doesn't work in the tundra i guess.

Maybe they could run extension cords up the pole and duct tape space heaters to the turbine

Toronto has one of its warmest winters on record. Your point? You don't understand it.

We also have a saying in Iowa. "Don't p*ss down my neck and tell me it's raining".

These global warming idiots trying to explain why it is really cold outside, rather than warm, are just priceless. Why don't they start tring to explain to us how black is really white?
