Sue the sun. And what about those other planets, whose gravitational forces keep bumping earth closer to it? We need congress to take action!
Global warming is a 1,500 year cycle that no one can impede or contribute to. It is the Communist agenda turned from Red to Green in order to regulate our economy in ways that Gus Hall et al were unable to accomplish.
Billions of dollars of grant money is flowing into the pockets of those on the man-made global warming bandwagon. No man-made global warming and the money dries up. This is big money, make no mistake about it. Always follow the money trail. Cui bono? Grant-addicted \”scientists.\”
Damn that George W Bush! That ******* is now making the planets revolve closer together! He\’ll do anything for his oil buddies. Yessir, once this planet starts really warming up and there is less demand for oil heat and….
Oops! Must be another neo-con, Republicrat, politico that did this one. Damn, I though I had him nailed for good this time!
Global warming is a crock. It is nothing more than a Bush/Cheney/Haliburton/Carlisle Group plot to force governments to make the earth cooler so that Bush\’s Big Oil Buddies can sell more heating oil.
Oh, and be sure to wear a tin foil hat while you read moveon.org so that Cheney can\’t read your mind.
I have my tin foil hat on so Al Gore can not find me either.
How is it that Anchorage Alaska has had record snow fall, (in order for snow to fall, the weather must me below 32 deg. F) when just a few hundred miles to the north the polar bears are dying because the ice sheets are melting and the weather is warming?
Sorry, just wanted to add that the moose in Anchorage Alaska are heading into town because they don\’t want to walk through the high snow piles while the polar bears are dying just a few hundred miles to the north becasue the weather is warming and the ice sheets are retreating…
Please somebody stop me – I just cant shut up. I have to turn every article in to an argument about partisen politics even though Al Gore has nothing to do with this article. I just want to stay on topic and discuss insurance, but I cant help myself!
If you keep making sense the alarmists will have to find another line of work. Currently they can barely scrape by on what they\’re squeazing from the gullible.
Only a few dozen foundations give them cash, along with some University research money, and the United Nations\’ ceaseless drumbeat. Do you want to jeopardize their cash flow and PR machine?
I mean, claimate whackos only got $3 billion from Virgin Air’s Richard Branson. The Sierra Club Foundation\’s 2004 budget was only $91 million, and the Natural Resources Defense Council had a paltry $57 million budget that year.
The right wing \”Global Warming Deniers\” have the fat cats at the Competitive Enterprise Institute to line their pockets, with its huge $3.6 million annual budget.
And it\’s only when a climate skeptic receives money from industry that the media rightly labels him as a corporate shill and attempt to discredit him, and rightly so.
Just because a global warming careerist like James Hansen is funded to the tune of $250,000 by the Heinz Foundation it doesn\’t mean anything at all.
\”Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!\”
What do all these large insurance have to GAIN from believing in global warming? They think its real and they want to stop it. Their profits depend on stopping it. So how come their scientists dont think its a hoax?
I\’m damn sure my agency will be affected, either positively or negatively, by either global warming or cooling. Don\’t I
need/require/want grant dollars to do something/nothing about impending/nonexistant climate change?
Won\’t my staff need coats/tanktops to continue to perform/screw around in the office. Hard not to remember the words of Al Bore, oops I mean Al Gore \’I\’m smart, your dumb\'(for best effect speak very, very slowly).
They are in cover-the-butt mode at the behest of their boards just in case. And I am not aware of any insurance companies that have climate scientists on staff.
A National Academy of Sciences report reaffirmed the Warm Period from about AD 900 to AD 1300 and the Little Ice Age from about AD 1500 to AD 1850. What could human activity have had to do with these climatic changes, that occurred long before large-scale human industrial activity.
I mean, during the Middle Ages Vikings grew crops in Greenland! So if planet warmed and cooled without man\’s involvement in the past, what has changed?
Its bad enough these idiots send this rubbish out in January. I\’m in Chicago today and its 15 F. Why don\’t these pea brains at least release their junk science in July or August? Shows their intelligence, doesn\’t it. Useful Idiots.
Honest to God, \”losses from climate change\”???? I mean, can you name one single loss that anyone can DEFINITIVELY pin on climate change? WTF is going on? Has everyone bought this nonsense hook, line and sinker?
Apparently, none of you closed-minded fools has taken the time to watch An Inconvenient Truth, or to read the scientific literature on global warming.
Yes, there have been heating/cooling cycles and changing co2 levels in the past, but not at the pace we are on now.
And ok, say it is partially a natural cycle, does that mean we should just ignore it and let the coastlines flood, cropland dry up, etc. etc. without even attempting to at least understand it, if not slow or stop it ? !
And to answer the question about all the snow in Anchorage, An Inconvenient Truth illustrated this same effect of global warming where it showed some places in India destroyed by massive flooding from record rainfall, while other areas are suffering from record drought.
Yes, it is difficult being in the top intellectual 1% and having to live on a planet with the other 99%. Thanks for asking.
Oh, so after posing as an adult with an \”honest question\” you reveal yourself to have emitted from Al Gore\’s butt, spewing vitriol and name-calling.
Anyone who would believe Al Gore for the time of day is a d-o-p-e. If you think that he is a reasonable man you are a moonbat.
For the adults who might still be involved here, JunkScience.com has produced “The Real Inconvenient Truth ” — debunking two key myths of climate alarmism, including that the Earth’s atmosphere acts like a greenhouse and that reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emission will avert significant temperature change.
Ehy patrick, I thought warmer waters lead to more powerful hurricanes. Temps on average across the globe have risen sharply recently. So there is no debate here. HOW STUPID ARE YOU???????????
This is about whether its causes by man or natural events.
But there is no debate that temps have increased. Temperature of the water and soil. These are facts you FOOL.
People like you make all the REPUBLICANS LOOK BAD.
Its comments like \”it is difficult being in the top intellectual 1% and having to live on a planet with the other 99%.\”
What makes you a 1%?
1) Your IQ?
2) Your education?
3) Your arrogance?
Oh please Mr. Scholar enlighten the other 99% with your wisdom. What a burden you must live with always knowing your the smartest one in the room.
…you managed to defeat your own argument and irritate several people, and it only took you one sentence.
Here\’s a radical thought- maybe some of us have seen the movie/read the book AND examined rebuttal arguments… but still don\’t agree with you?
How about this jerk-off- maybe you should stop telling us how smart you are and start researching both sides of the debate.
I don\’t think I\’m smarter than you. I think I have a different opinion. And, judging by your post, my opinion is based on more evidence than you have looked at.
So… go ahead and do some more research. Once you\’ve looked at both sides of the argument, and not just Gore\’s, we can discuss our opinions.
I enjoy reading Insurance Journal for the Information to help me develop my insurance career and become a more professional person. And the interesting and thoughtful input by other insurance professionals always is enlightening. With such wonderful insights as \”you fool\” and \”that jerkoff\” I know I will expand my knowledge base.
Can we please stop the ******** and act like professionals discussing an important issue free of political/social ideological flatulence?
Sonny, Apparently it\’s a slow day today. So you\’re probably just grabbing another cup of joe, propping the feet up on the desk and BSing around with Insurance Journal. Notice not many underwriters, actuaries and executives posting comments here because they are WORKING and the PREVIOUS DRIBBLE just drowns out whatever MEANINGFUL COMMENTS they have to contribute.
Is this more clap trap from the Al Gore crowd?
No, this is more clap trap from the Sarbanes-Oxley crowd.

I just figured it out. Scholar is her nibs – Hillary!
Now, she gets to show us P&C agents how to do our business, too. Juts like the health insurance folks.

Sonny, you bring facts to the table and the moderate/open minded can only call you names and make character assasinations.
