The arrogance of Hollywood liberal elites is truly astounding, folks.
After embarrassing herself on CNBC Tuesday, and following it up with an absurd rebuttal Thursday, the producer of Al Gore’s global warming schlockumentary “An Inconvenient Truth,” Laurie David, went for a dubious hat-trick by taking on talk radio host Rush Limbaugh.
I kid you not.
In what was presented as a letter to El Rushbo at the Huffington Post, David attacked Limbaugh for -- get this! -- his lack of knowledge concerning global warming (emphasis added throughout, h/t NB member Sick-n-Tired):
I don't even know where to begin with this one, but I will start by saying how embarrassed I am for you. It shocks me that someone with your stature could know so little about global warming.
What chutzpah, huh? David then made the typical liberal point about all climate events – heat, cold, rain, snow, ice, thaws, etc. – being related to global warming:
First off, thanks for making the case for us. The things you mention like worse snowstorms and a chaotic start to baseball season are all symptoms of global causes extreme weather in BOTH directions. For example, the reason the blizzards are warming.
Yep. Blizzards happen because the earth is warming. And this woman is questioning Limbaugh's intellectual capacity.
Once again missing the delicious hypocrisy in her statements, David continued by suggesting that Limbaugh should listen to baseball players’ opinions on this issue rather than the multitudes of skeptical scientists that are experts in the field:
Moreover, for someone who seems to follow sports so closely, I thought you may have seen the recent issue of Sports Illustrated that featured global warming on the cover. Guess not, but if you are interested in actually learning what global warming is doing to sports go to stopglobalwarming.org to see what actual athletes like Reggie Bush, Steve Nash and Chase Utley have to say about why they are taking global warming seriously.
Seriously, folks, you can’t make this stuff up.

Funny they are saying there may be historical really bad cold snowy weather coming to the east coast by this week-end...to try to call this caused by GW just cracks me up!
Ice Age scare time again if you ask me!
Thanks bigtimer
April 13, 2007 - 11:37 ET by SportPoliticsI appreciated you pointing out the first comment by gh.
It smacked down global warming foolishness quite well with statistics and common sense and little truth about what the sensationalist talking heads completely forget in their own babbling.
I note there are 7 replies, and with gh being the first and only excellent one, the other 6 merely bashed and slandered, and pretended they never even saw the first reply by gh. LOL
Amazing.
what a joke
April 15, 2007 - 01:32 ET by MilesDHow could anybody swallow losers like Laurie and Gore? That's how totalitarianism is imposed on people: get a bunch of converts to force it on everybody else.
Anybody stupid enough to listen to a fool like Gore really deserves him. Unfortunately it would make a lot other people suffer too. It's not like choosing your own ridiculous brand of religion or your own idiot preferences in a spouse; it demands that everybody else has to suffer because of your own stupid mistakes.
This Al Gore garbage has just about reached the limit; it is no longer just a funny little sideshow - it is becoming a threat to civilized society, and I hope that America wakes up and realizes the consequences of letting this disease spread
Because everyone knows.....

April 13, 2007 - 11:28 ET by pmohbuckwhat makes laurie david such a credible resource for anything academic or scientific? per her wiki (which paraphrases her own website):
"Before working full time on environmental and political issues, David worked in the entertainment industry. She began her career in New York City as a talent coordinator for the David Letterman show. Four years later she left to start her own management company, representing comedians and comedy writers. She also produced several comedy specials for HBO, Showtime, MTV, and Fox Television. Upon moving to Los Angeles, David became vice president of comedy development for a division of Fox Broadcasting and developed sitcoms for Twentieth Century Television."
wow, a pedigree in the entertainment industry and she thinks she has the intellect to go after el-rushbo ... it's hard NOT to laugh. does this women even have a college education?
and did anyone notice that the athletes she referred to (Nash, Bush and Utley) are all california-university alumni ... she be hard-pressed to even name an athlete outside her area code. another wanna-be intellectual spewed from the bowels of hollywood.

April 13, 2007 - 16:38 ET by jscrumpI am shocked to read that Ms David’s opinion is not very well qualified.
I had thought that she would have had a whole series of hard scientific credits in college level math (calc & diffeq), modern and classical physics (including Navier-Stokes equations to model atmospheric circulation), analytical chemistry, and some advance computer science (to develop her own models).
However, from reading about her earlier comments, including unplugging our toasters to save energy when they are not in use, I should have known better .... She’s obviously not a EE.

So, according amateur meteoro
April 13, 2007 - 11:32 ET by GalvanicSo, according amateur meteorologist Laurie David, the Great Lakes aren't freezing over because of global warming, thus allowing more water to evaporate into the atmosphere, which translates to unseasonable blizzards over the Eastern Seaboard in April.
Well, I'm no rocket scientist (as Prince Albert Gore would say), but if the atmosphere is getting warmer, wouldn't that precipitation return to earth as rain instead of snow? In fact, the East Coast is usually pretty rainy in April.
For the precipitation to fall in the form of snow, the temperatures along the Eastern Seaboard would have to be unseasonable colder, right? Otherwise, the precipitation would fall as rain.
The Eastern Seaboard usually enjoys milder temperatures than the interior in no small part due to the Gulf Stream effect, so if it's warmer over the Great Lakes, wouldn't we expect the Eastern Seaboard to be even warmer? But actually, it's been colder than normal.
How come, Laurie? Sheryl? Al? Any pro athlete?
I guess that's why the GWers are changing the lexicon to climate change. There are so many anomalies out there, that "global warming" doesn't hold anymore. So now, we are being told that GHGs are causing the atmosphere to get warmer AND colder.
Oh, my.

April 13, 2007 - 12:15 ET by Sick-n-TiredGalv,
Below is what I had sent to Noel in the feedback/tip section. It directly addresses your last point. It also touches on the ridiculousness of her "scientific source(s)".
Please note a few things in her post. First being her comment that weather will swing in both directions----I have been waiting for this. These people are going to get a lock on any weather phenom, and call it 'theirs' and attribute it to GW---which actually now, I understand there is a movement for them to copyright the term "climate change"----that way their fight to ‘save the world’ would encompass controlling the atmosphere in response to both warming and cooling swings.
Second she refers to an SI issue (of which I sent a scathing email to them about) citing athletes and presumably writers; as if they are qualified scientists!!! If she were writing a thesis or dissertation these people would be her EXPERTS-AND THEY WOULD BE REFERENCED!!! She knows NOTHING about science.
"GET THE SCIENCE TO THE MASSES"
You're right, S-n-T. When I
April 13, 2007 - 14:41 ET by GalvanicYou're right, S-n-T. When I hear people like David and Crow, their grasp of knowledge never seems any deeper than what they gleened from Gore's movie, which has already been discredited in part by his ally, the IPCC. They toss off the counter-claims of the skeptics with a wave of the hand, while insisting that the science is irrefutable and the skeptics are in the pockets of oil companies. That's because they've been convincing the average citizen that there's been a debate (Somehow, we all missed it), the facts are in, and the only option now is to act.
But they are vulnerable, as this correspondent demonstrated. I think we need to challenge their nonsense every chance we get: letters to editors, call-ins, open challenges at events. In that way, we can at least educate voters to the fact that, if nothing else, the science ISN'T settled, and get them to pay more attention to the con job that Gore and his gang are trying to pull.
Galv,You too are absolutely r
April 13, 2007 - 15:37 ET by Sick-n-TiredGalv,
You too are absolutely right, we need our own grass-roots movement to get the truth out there; and we need dedicated people or we are going to be in a world of hurt come the next few years.
They do have the 'citizens' hoodwinked. Talking to my grandmother in law the other day I tried to explain to her why we weren't in trouble w/GW---but it was hard for her to understand; according to the nightly news she watches we are in dire trouble. And they have her believing it through and through. The only consensus that is in is the brain washing of the sheeple (God bless my grandmother in law). We have to reverse it!
We can write letters to the editor, call-ins etc. but, in addition, we need somebody charismatic enough to be the face (Gore-David equivalent) of arguing the science against AGW.... Any ideas?
Sick-n-Tired, I'd like to see
April 13, 2007 - 19:21 ET by GalvanicSick-n-Tired, I'd like to see the Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institue put Bjorn Lomborg out front. Lomborg is a professor of statistics in Denmark, who's looked at the IPCC's data and dissembled it. He's very articulate in English (a second language), and explains things in ways that most laymen can absorb.
How good is he? Well, a major Danish newspaper invited Al Gore to come to Denmark (at the paper's expense) to debate Prof. Lomborg on global warming. Gore declined. I think Gore wsas afraid.

April 14, 2007 - 01:47 ET by Sick-n-TiredI think Lomborg, Ball, Gray etc. would be perfect; but we have to make sure that, due to 'their (AGW disiples)' frivilous arguements, that "our rep" has have to never had a big oil "association". Now, where do we start the funding, and moreover get the PRESS? Can't be FOX---period. As much as i love them, nobody would take our serious, and scientific, debate serious. Needs to be somebody with Hollywood connects..... tough battle right?

April 13, 2007 - 18:57 ET by SpinyNormanSNT,
At the risk of being completely misunderstood -- climate warming cycles can, indeed, move reflexive weather patterns in either direction.
That said, this twit is confusing “lake effect” snow with NLE storms. She’s likely just puking out chaotic remnants she’s picked up from other enviro-mental-cases – particularly the wooden Indian she so adores.
Truth be told, a case could be made for an increase in LE snow in the region when the Lake freeze-over is minimized by solar fluctuation – but not by a mynah bird whose only knowledge of heat-science stems from baking cookies in home-ec.
Moreover, such an increase in LES would have virtually zero impact on the argument of AGW.
Give a Liberal a thought and he'll repeat it mindlessly all day. Teach a Liberal to think for himself and he'll vote Republican (or, preferably, Libertarian) for the rest of his life.

OK. Check out this slide show, "The White Death," about the historic Buffalo blizzard in late Jan of 1977. You'll really be looking forward to some global warming after shivering thru it.
OK, back on point. David is talking about the lake effect snow. Yup, that is what causes these storms. Take a little gander at Buffalo's own Lake Erie in Late Jan., 1977 - completely frozen over during the "White Death." A studious person - I bet someone like Joe Kernen at CNBC - will probably look at the top corner of that plate, and notice this little note: Percent icecover for all lakes: 78.93%.

April 13, 2007 - 13:22 ET by Roger the ShrubberIronically, Gary, the Great Lakes rarely ever freeze over completely. Lake Erie is usually the only one to do so.
Here is an interesting piece from the NOAA.
Rog..
April 13, 2007 - 13:57 ET by Gary HallActually Rog, I sorta like knew all of that. In the link you posted, I noticed this .."Lake Erie produces a similar effect for a zone stretching from the eastern suburbs of Cleveland to Erie to Buffalo." Point was, Laurie David is blaming lake effect snow on man-made global warming - one of the worst bizzards in Buffalo was when Lake Erie was frozen over completely - as were most of the great lakes that week. All I know, is that Laurie David is dangerous with her ignorance and her need to attack others, for speaking, when they have a right to speak their view as much as she does.
Did you watch the slide show? Wow! (;~> g

April 13, 2007 - 14:14 ET by Roger the ShrubberThere was a Klown God worshipper who came here a month or two ago spouting off that the lake-effect snow that hammered upstate NY, etc, this winter was because of global warming. I was trying to show that
a: most of the Great Lakes do not freeze over
b: when it does happen (like in 2003), it is a rare event.
c: i was trying to contrast my story with yours, to show that global warming had nothing to do with each, since massive snow occured when Lake Erie was frozen AND not frozen.

April 13, 2007 - 17:37 ET by RJJohn, you are now qualified to write for the religion of Anthropogenic Global Warming The media world is open to you: book deals, documentaries, articles....you name it. You should, however, ramp up the disaster quotient....and if you could find a way to blame the common cold on GW you'll have a best seller.

April 13, 2007 - 16:46 ET by John in CA"The things you mention like worse snowstorms and a chaotic start to baseball season are all symptoms of global causes extreme weather in BOTH directions."
This is crazy. I've been following baseball since 1968. For as long as I can remember, every season during the opening days, there is some extreme weather event that causes havoc on the opening days schedules. For as long as I can remember, almost every single year.
All this talk about the blizzard/snowfall in Buffalo reminds me that when I was a kid, every year we got a Yearbook to our encyclopedia set. Every year, I looked through it. It was in the mid 70's ('73-'76 timeframe) I read a story in it about the record snowfall in Buffalo, NY - 480 inches! My powerful, young brain soon told me that was forty feet of snow in one year. I recall being fascinated, because even thought we had spent two winters in Rhode Island, I didn't realize it snowed that much anywhere. What's so different now than back 30+ years ago?

I'm not sure what you're doing to get that like that, I haven't had too much trouble putting links in. Here's my rendition of your site.
