Liberals: Global Warming Is Causing Street Lights to Melt! | Power Line
You would naturally assume that Yahoo picked up this silly story before it was known that the street light melted because of a dumpster fire, not global warming. But no! Yahoo knew the truth, and ran the story anyway...

Is there evidence for the assertion that the “dumpster fire was caused and aggravated by the record heat and dryness?” Of course not. Is there evidence for the assertion that this was a “dangerous, spontaneous fire”–as opposed to one started, for example, with a match? No. The bottom line is that if you are a believer in government control over the economy (which is to say, over every aspect of our lives) evidence is simply irrelevant. Anthropogenic global warming isn’t a scientific theory at all; it is a political campaign, and one in which many media outlets are eager to join, regardless of the facts.

Via Watts Up With That and Tom Nelson, both of whom you should read.

Wait … what?

The world has been warming for centuries, and yet the stratosphere is “remarkably dry”?

Go figure, the climate is a mysterious beast. But it’s not nearly as mysterious as the logic of AGW alarmists. Despite a couple of centuries of warming having left the stratosphere “remarkably dry”, they claim warming might could possibly suddenly reverse course and cause the stratosphere to get wetter instead, and in turn that has the opportunity of maybe increasing the chances of making ozone holes, and thus it just might/could/conceivably/chance of/possibly cause an increase in skin cancer. And the best part is that, like a Hollywood movie, their contestant for the Booker Prize is “based on a true story”!
