Good grief, no sooner had I posted my hypothesis on the actual causes of global warming than Pat Robertson starts proclaiming his newfound belief in it.

Well Pat, if you’re truly a believer, and want to do your part to help cool off the earth, then I have good news for you! As I theorized earlier, the overflowing abundance of hotties bouncing around in skin hugging outfits has done more to warm the earth than any of the other contributing factors (including carbon dioxide) put together (despite what Al Gore would have you believe). It’s now time to assert yourself and demand that the mass of womankind stop dressing like Babylonian harlots, and start putting on burqas! ((As I noted earlier, conservative women need not apply.)) By preaching against the coarse immorality that’s pervaded our country since the 60’s, you would also in fact be doing your part to help stop global warming, effectively killing two birds with one stone. So let’s get to it! You could even introduce a new line of TBN sponsored burqas for those true believers who really want to make a difference. It would be a perfect supplement to the diet shake you recently started marketing. Think of the potential revenues this could generate! Heck I should be paid royalties for coming up with these brilliant ideas.

Ok, if I could be serious for one minute…

It’s hard to take the doomsayers seriously. For one, nobody can honestly tell you what causes global warming, or if it even exists. ((And if they say otherwise, they’re either ignorant, like Pat Robertson, or a lying piece of bottom feeding scum, like Al Gore.)) Look at most graphs, and what it appears to show is that this steady rise in temperature may in fact be merely part of a normal cycle that spans thousands of years. I’m more inclined to believe the likes of Bill Gray, one of the world’s most foremost and outspoken experts on hurricanes and global climates, than I would some commie pinko liberal who flips me the bird because I’m not driving a Prius. Prof. Gray by the way believes we are heading for a cooling period in the next few years. I believe that too, and if it doesn’t happen, I’ll be glad to eat my blog.

In the meantime, there’s plenty of info out there that should give us pause about global warming, even in this blistering heat.

Update: A cold front is headed into our area this weekend.

Update 2: The hottest summer on record was actually in 1930. More interesting is that the unusual warmth might be attributed to the growing number of urban buildings that retain heat (rural areas notably shwoed no marked change).

Maybe these facts along with the long awaited relief from the heat will bring good old Pat and the others back to their senses… then again, maybe not.
