Pelosi Talks Global Warming in Germany as Late-May Snows Rock the Region

Photo of Noel Sheppard.

This is really getting hysterical. As House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) tours Europe to discuss the imminent doom to the planet at the hands of the left’s recent bogeyman anthropogenic global warming, late-May snows are falling all around her.

Honestly, folks, you can’t make this stuff up.

As she set out on her journey, such late-season white stuff hit parts of America, Canada, and Great Britain as reported by NewsBusters Tuesday.

Even better, as she met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, a late-season snowstorm rocked Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, and Italy.

As reported by England’s Daily Mail (hilarious emphasis added throughout):

Freak snow, freezing temperatures and tropical storms across Europe are making the Bank Holiday washout here look almost pleasant.

In Spitzing in Germany, locals have been forced to wrap up after ten centimetres of snow brought out the snowploughs for the first time this year.

                                                                   

It was the same story in towns close to the Alps in Austria, Switzerland and even northern Italy where temperatures in May routinely climb into the 80s.

In one Swiss valley, 3,000 were trapped in hotels and guest houses because trains could not reach them in the snow.

Of course, all this was happening just after Speaker Pelosi claimed to have seen “firsthand evidence that climate change is a reality" in Greenland.

I guess she had her eyes closed to all the snow falling around her.

Would one call this ignorance, blindness, or some unfortunate mixture thereof?

Regardless of the answer, right-thinking people all over the world are hoping that snow falls wherever the Speaker travels on this trip.

Yup. Just reminding the GW faithful about who's really in charge. Of course, they wouldn't get it. It's sort of an inside joke.

GW - Who's in charge?

Fully cognizant of The Captain at the Helm.  I've also got it from the same Source the world won't be flooded ever again.

Riled One, you are right, but come to think of it He also said He would turn up the heat in the end!  Maybe GW is a sign of the times?

Pelosi and Greenland

I love it!!!!  You are right, God does have a sense of humor and he's showing it more and more these days

with these snowstorms.     

If she agrees with the Germans so much, maybe she

should stay there.   We'd be better off.

Look, they had their commets

Look, they had their commets written long before they started this trip so please don't expect them to change the BS charges and "evidence" they expected to find with what they ACTUALLY found!  That would take objectivity and HONESTY.  Two things that a Democrat knows NOTHING about!

She is not the only one thats

She is not the only one thats blind.  ABC is currently running another one of those "We have 10 years left" reports.  You should see the comments about "consensus" and "all the scientist agree" being made by some people.

What the hell is this woman

What the hell is this woman doing? Isn't she Speaker of the House? How can she run House business if she is in Greenland, Germany, Syria, Israel, etc? Last I checked, part of the job description wasn't cavorting all over the world.

Maybe something Newsbusters can keep on eye on is how much she travels in her first "historic" year as the first female speaker and show how truant she is compared to her predecessors (sp?).

<insert something clever>

Maybe its better that she sta

Maybe its better that she stays over there.

Pelosi's giant ego

This silly (I mean exactly that) woman REALLY believes she's some kind of "co-President"..... 

&quot;woman REALLY believes

"woman REALLY believes she's some kind of "co-President"....."

It's worse than that RJ, she thinks she is the true representative of the "people" mandated by the "land slide" vote of the American electoriate. Of course, as you have pointed out, that's just silly.

"There are two types of people in this country; those who provide freedom and those who enjoy it." MM says...

Thank you OIF. Between our representatives travelling all over the world , going on expensive vacations, and running for office, not much work is being done "for the people", is it? Term limits is part of the solution but they'll never go for that. I say one six-year term for president and one stint in office for the rest. Serve, then go home.

NEVER, NEVER trust a liberal

iveseen---I like it--

iveseen---I like it--if people want to tweak the numbers a little-that's OK but term limits it is. I like a six year--one term  limit for the presidential office.

Thanks, MB. I believe it's an idea whose time has come for  many reasons, not the least of which is that it would curb corruption and ease the resentment of so many Americans toward "lifetime" politicians. And six years is almost too much time for a president in today's world. Candidates are all ready running for the office with almost two years left for President Bush. Common sense. But as you and others have implied , common sense is not "common" any more. (BTW, we might also ask those running for president to resign their present positions).

One can only surmise that Pelosi is delusional. Must be the Botox.

Seriously. She makes me sick. Prancing about, showing off because she's the first woman SOTH. Get back to work, Nancy. You're an embarrasment to all the hard-working women of America.

God Bless

Right on, Queen. God bless the hard-working women of America, no matter what their "job". Pelosi, Waters, Rosie, Baher, Sawyer, and the rest of the numbskulls surely don't represent you in any way, shape, or form.

NEVER, NEVER trust a liberal

First woman SOTH.....

Would equate to Speaker Lady Of The House.  Nuf Sed.

Maybe she's out supporting the troops or something. Dunno. It's hard to tell.

Does anyone know if she took a commercial flight?

It is no wonder she is still

It is no wonder she is still rambling about AGW even though it is snowing all around her.  She can't see anything with her head up her......---you get the idea.

Ice Queen?

......all the snow falling around her.

Interesting that unseasonably cold weather seems to accompany Pelosi (the Ice Queen?).  Similar to the temperature drop phenomena reportedly observed by paranormal researchers when an evil spirit supposedly enters a room.

Ooh! That's spooky, acumen. A

Ooh! That's spooky, acumen. And an interesting theory to pursue. :)

And how about her electromagnetic field? Does it also seem that her presence has a tendency to suck the energy from the area surrounding her?
