 Not again! Big DC March Snowstorm Set to Greet 'Largest public protest of global warming ever in U.S.!' – 1 Foot of Snow Possible, Bitter Cold, Blowing and drifting snow!

DC under Winter Storm Warning: DC faces up to 1 foot of snow, bitter cold, blowing and drifting snow

'Largest public protest of global warming ever in U.S.' set for Monday March 2, 2009 at U.S. Capitol w/ NASA’s James Hansen – Fox News – Feb. 27, 2009

Excerpt: NASA's chief climate scientist is in hot water with colleagues and at least one lawmaker after calling on citizens to engage in civil disobedience at what is being billed as the largest public protest of global warming ever in the United States. In a video on capitolclimateaction.org, Dr. James Hansen is seen urging Americans to "take a stand on global warming" during the March 2 protest at the Capitol Power Plant in Southeast Washington, D.C. "We need to send a message to Congress and the president that we want them to take the actions that are needed to preserve climate for young people and future generations and all life on the planet," says Hansen, who has likened coal-fired power plants to "factories of death" and claims he was muzzled by the Bush administration when he warned of drastic climate changes. […] But critics say Hansen's latest call to action blurs the line between astronomer and activist and may violate the Hatch Act, which prohibits federal employees from participating in partisan political activity. "Oh my goodness," one of Hansen's former supervisors, Dr. John Theon, told FOXNews.com when informed of the video. "I'm not surprised ... The fact that Jim Hansen has gone off the deep end here is sad because he's a good fellow." “Why he has not been fired I do not understand," Theon said.

Well, these folks are man made windbags. And they are attempting to sway public opinion with misinformation.

That being said, the signs from God himself tell us they should be ignored because they want unethical behavior to be the savior of the day.

Global warming is the biggest joke since the easter bunny. There are record heat temps set back in the 1900's that have yet to be broken and probably never will. Al gore made a ton off this and people fell for it. silly wabbits. And for those who say look at this report and look at that report, remember, for every report that says this, there is a report that says that.

"Why isn't SNL doing spoofs on this stuff?"

Because they're a bunch of brainwashed, Hollywood libtards.

"We need to send a message to Congress and the president that we want them to take the actions that are needed to preserve climate for young people...."

Well then you can relax.....climate will never ever go away due to temperature change. I can tell you with complete certainty that climate will be here until the end of the earth itself....

These occurences are proof that:

A) God has a sense of humor....

B) God is trying to tell prople who's really in charge here....

C) These people lack intelligence, otherwise they'd plan these events in months when its HOT!

People prove all the time that they are sheep and will drink whatever snake oil is offered to them. Hanson is one of the sheeple following Gore the snake oil pitchman.

this is a great blog, yet only 6 people have commented" -- Sorry, Global cooling has kept us off the blogs this morning.

Interesting blog

We are so presumptuous to believe as humans this planet has anything what so ever to fear from us.....

Once motivated...she will shake us off like so many pesky fleas....the debate over global warming is just that...a debate...some say yes....some say no....as with any political agenda....

The real truth is what does Mother earth have to say....She makes her power over us clear with every hurricane, volcano, earthquake, tidal wave, etc.....

The sooner folks realize that we really don't make that much difference, the sooner we can move on to things that do....

this is a great blog, yet only 6 people have commented.
