"Climate change? Ever hear of the seasons, Bozo?" Please come CAPTION Fox's Douglas McKelway!!

Last edited Thu Sep 19, 2013, 11:58 AM - Edit history (2)



Douglas ("Fossil fuels are the cure for everything!&quot McKelway is saying: "Well, Gregg, it turns out climate change is a totally bogus issue. A report from the NIPCC, that is the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change, shows that temperatures have remained relatively steady for 15 years. . . . And in answer to your question, the NIPCC is more credible than the U.N.'s IPCC, which is scheduled to issue their biased report later this month, because the NIPCC doesn't harbor an innate hatred of the fossil fuel industry and is, in fact, privately funded, refusing to take any money from any government whatsoever."



*********************************

The above CAPTION is more-or-less based on the following Media Matters story:

By the way the NIPCC is funded by the Heartland Institute, the fossil fuel industry, etc. The following links might prove helpful:

Like what he is reading is going over his head. As there is a huge gap in his comprehension.

The "Heartland Institute." LOL - as much credibility as a three-year old with crumbs all over his face swearing he didn't get into the cookie jar.

The three-year old lies on an ad hoc basis. Heartland methodically plans to lie far in advance of its occasion.
