Fox Business host Stuart Varney: Ice in Antarctica proves ‘global cooling’

315 315Fox Business host Stuart Varney said on Tuesday that his theory of “global cooling” had been proven when a research ship recently got stuck in ice near Antarctica.

The habitual climate-change denier reported that all 52 passengers of the Russian-flagged MV Akademik Shokalskiy had been rescued by helicopter after Chinese and Australian ice breakers had tried for days to reach the vessel.

“The ship, sent to the Antarctic to study climate change, has been stranded in the ice for 10 days,” Varney noted. “Attempts to rescue the passengers using ice breaker ships failed. Rescuers finally got through using a whopping, great big helicopter that was landing on the supposedly, very thin ice.”


“So, it looks to me like we are looking at global cooling,” he added. “Forget this global warming. That’s just my opinion.”

it's amazing that even a shithole like Fox would keep him around. He's got all the business sense of uberidiot Jim Cramer but without the funny sounds and costumes.

Mainly due to his slobbering defense of Free Market Capitalism.

proof there is global cooling and it is Obama's fault. Also Donald Trump said it is proof of global cooling. I knew all the books on ice in the Antarctica was a lie. Now we go from the birthers to the icers. What a crock of $hit.

The bloated has bag was going off about the use of fossil fuels to rescue them. In his mind it is hypocritical
