A Warmening Snowe
Damn, looks bad. Trudgy. Wait till you see what happened to the Beeb’s Bear-on-Thames. News first. BBC: Heaviest snow in 18 years blankets Blighty, France, kills three in Italy. Rare accumulation in London shuts down runways, ties up roads and causes transport chaos. Just days after the Beeb abandons the pretense of impartiality on warmening. You remember:
That’s the bear in bleaker days, last week, before the blessed fall of warmal snow. OK, happier days, before the damned snow revealed the alarming extent of warmaling. I dunno, I can’t keep it straight. Here’s Christopher Booker at the Times writing on that issue Saturday:
Londoners might have been startled last Monday to see a giant mock-up of a polar bear on an iceberg, floating on the Thames outside the Palace of Westminster. They might not have been so surprised to learn, first, that this was a global warming propaganda stunt and, second, that the television company behind it is part-owned by the BBC.
It was ironic that, last week, while the BBC was refusing to show an appeal for aid to the victims of Israeli bombing in Gaza, on the grounds that this might breach its charter obligation to be impartial, a rather less publicised row was raging over Newsnight’s doctoring of film of President Obama’s inaugural speech, which was used to support yet another of its items promoting the warming scare. Clips from the speech were spliced together to convey a considerably stronger impression of what Obama had said on global warming than his very careful wording justified. While that may have been unprofessional enough, the rest of the item, by Newsnight’s science editor, Susan Watts, was even more bizarre. It was no more than a paean of gratitude that we now at last have a president prepared to listen to the “science” on climate change, after the dark age of religious obscurantism personified by President Bush.
Meanwhile, back to actual Arctic conditions:
That silly girl Gaia’s sense of fun forces the cancellation of a big meeting of warmening alarmists Cold Play, Radiohead and other big name rockers, who wanted to discuss more serious business … how to make more green. TImes of London’s slide show shows anti-war, pro-Tibet protestors braving the frosty blast … what, no warmalists? Don’t they care enough to protest in the snow!?! More evidence of impending doom expected to fall on this side of the pond tomorrow. Meanwhile, Old Man Winter will be bludgeoning Blighty again on Thursday and Friday as the Arctic blast continues.
Frog blog No Pasaran: “Gaia is a cruel mistress!” Remarks on radio silence re warmth in coldest winter in 13 years.
Blair helpfully reports that the weather is fisked, I mean fixed, in Robert Fisk’s native Maidstone.
While we’re waiting for the explanations on how warmening causes records cold and snowfalls, everyone’s favorite Pommie Bastid blogger is warming up with some snow totty (NSFWarmalists), and reports that TomTom is tracking a 32-mile traffic jam tying up the M25.
OK, here we go. Theo, who only got a dusting up in Norfolk, takes time out from totty to PhotoShop a helpful update the Beeb’s warmalarmism:
Kate chimes in with the alarming news that Al Gore has personally trained 250 Canadians to spread the inconvenient truth.
Malkin notes that warmaling is wreaking havoc in Kentucky. You know, the 57th state.

What snow. We haven’t got any.

I’ve just managed to clean out a sufficient amount of warmalist snow and ice to get around the house easily. I now understand we are to expect another 6″ or more tonight and into tomorrow. Oh thank goodness for warmalism.
Won’t someone please rid us of this inconvenient Goreacle?

Wha…huh? More snow?!? I just got done chipping the ice off the front walk from that last warmaling (normally I don’t do it, but Mr. H is laid low by double knee surgery). Global warming better hurry up and do its job, or these two not-so-healthy geezers are going to have to move south.
