Science factFirst things first: the lady yelling at Chuck Schumer in the Fox & Friends video below is AMAZING, and obviously did the “Jill” voiceover for the Adam Sandler masterpiece Jack and an Unfortunate Appearance by Al Pacino. Second things second: Noted philanthropist Donald Trump is always good to have around to explain that why would you put Hurricane Sandy into some kind of idiotic “global warming” context when it is COLD in New York right now? He has obviously never seen the John Cusack nature documentary The Day After Tomorrow!

Note the braintrust nodding sagely along. That is because everybody knows snow disproves human-made climate change, which is why Matt Drudge almost murdered himself with laughter when it snowed in Copenhagen, in December, during a climate change conference. Science fact!

    Addressing climate change means suburbanites might have to pay a bit more for gas for their SUVs. This is INTOLERABLE!!!!1!!1

    But America's premiere climate scientist, Donald Trump, MBA, says it's cold out now, so what's the problem?

    • LibertyLover

      Because those heated seats in their SUVs take more gas, silly.

    • But wait! Didn't Randian icon John Stossel just post that they *should* have to pay enormous prices for their gas for freedumb????

      • Lot_49

        If only Newt would reveal his secret plan to reduce the price of gas to $2/gallon! It's probably on the shelf next to Nixon's secret plan to end the Vietnam War, and Mittens' 1999-2009 tax returns.

  • FakaktaSouth

    That lady telling Chuck "We're gonna die if we get killed by the weather" is the most reasonable, true thing in the entire deal here. IT'S REALLY COLD, so an increase in AVERAGE TEMPERATURE and MONSTER storms lose all meaning, force, and consequence, of course.

    • prommie

    • When I first saw that video, I really wanted to smack that broad.

      a) No one told you to stay in your fucking home when an evacuation was declared for your entire fucking neighborhood. I can understand being upset and scared but if it's cold, there are fucking shelters all over the city and plenty of good samaritans willing and able to drive you. Which brings me to point number two.

      b) It's clear why this woman has no friends or family. She's alienated every single one of them with her whining.

  • glasspusher

    Ever hear of the expression "too cold to snow"? If the temp gets way below freezing, the atmosphere can't hold enough moisture to give you a decent snowfall, which is why in some historically ice-boxy places in the world, snowfall is actually up as their average winter temperatures are rising.

    • NellCote71

      Nuh-huh. Too science-y.

      • glasspusher

        I understand. I keep reminding myself if this stuff was easy, I wouldn't have a job…

        • Redgyal

          Yes, I keep saying that every time I draw a line.

    • Say, you sound like one them "scientitians"….

      • glasspusher

        Guilty. Oh, one thing I forgot to mention, there are cases where it can be 0F and snow like gangbusters- lake effect snow, like I saw when I was in grad school in Cleveland. Killer cold air picking up moisture over warm Lake Erie. See also: Buffalo, NY. Late in the season, Lake Erie often freezes over, thus stopping the lake effect snow.

        • BerkeleyBear

          Yep, that lake effect is something else. Grand Haven Michigan in winter gets multiple foot dumps regularly, and there's nothing much you can do about it (if you don't have a snowblower or plow) but hope it warms up to where the de-icer starts working.

          • glasspusher

            Yeah, but I found that for less than 5 inches, that lake effect stuff was so fluffy light you could brush it off with a feather, as long as you didn't try to heat the car up first.Of course, out by us, I see snow up at my place on Skyline about once every two years, and if it sticks, it lasts for less than a day an less than an inch. Thank goodness for the Sierras, I still loves me snow…

        • viennawoods13

          Yeah, here on the north shore of Lake Erie, we get a light dusting, and see Erie and Buffalo get whomped regularly.

    • Blueb4sinrise

      But Arizona!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      QED Seance person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      • glasspusher

        I woke to 3 inches of snow on my car when visiting Flagstaff Arizona a few years back in April! Elevation, what, 7000 feet? Oh noes!

        • Blueb4sinrise

          They make their own out of effluent.

          • glasspusher

            I thought Flagstaff was infinitely more pleasant than the Phoenix region. Did I miss something?

          • Blueb4sinrise

            Dunno, wouldn't go to Phoenis under any circumstances.

          • glasspusher

            I try to avoid it at all costs. My SO has some family there, 48 hours there was enough to last me several lifetimes, but I've been back briefly since. I have a friend up here who has in laws there, and he feels the same way….

          • Blueb4sinrise

            Okay, I confess, I was there about a decade ago to the Art Museum Place Thingy.

          • yyyaz

            *Sigh*…. the jerb creators who hold the rights to run a ski resort on the Peaks have succeeded in their efforts to make snow from treated effluent. This, after decades of fighting with every Native American tribe in the area and the "native" white-eyes here. So 10 more ski bums will get part-time work with no benefits, and the city streets are clogged with 10,000 more idiots from Scottsdale and ASU every weekend, none of whom has an effing clue about how to drive in the snow. </s>

        • GunToting[Redacted]

          We live in Prescott (5,300 feet at my driveway). We get maybe 2-3 significant snowfall events per year, usually in March. We get anywhere from 12" to 30" in one dump, and then it's usually gone in 3 days.

    • Too cold to snow?
      Why yes, I used to live in Rochester, NY.
      Scary cold.

      • glasspusher

        Hah! I lived there for my one failed year of college, RIT. Went out one night to the dining commons, it was -19F, took in a nice, deep breath of cold air, froze the blood vessels in my nose and gave myself one of the worst nosebleeds I've ever had.Ah, memories…

  • friendlyskies

    It's so important for society to see a group of accomplished climatologists on televisions discussing climate change, particularly in the wake of an extreme weather event like Hurricane Sandy. Kudos, FOXNews, for broadcasting commentary from the people who matter.

  • I'm more concerned about global stupiding, which is clearly Fox-made.

  • I can't wait to see Fox & Fucks' meltdown, the day after tomorrow.

    • Allmighty_Manos

      No you don't. Unless you want to hear about Obama stealing the election, let's impeach Obama over Beghazi etc.

  • glasspusher

    It's a lot easier to know the climate of a region than the weather there a month from now. If it wasn't, people wouldn't move to Florida and Arizona for the warm weather, or in the case of Arizona, for the stupidity.

    • DCBloom

      No, no you were right…. Florida for the stupidity, too, also.

      • glasspusher

    What exactly is the point trying to be made here? Seriously, I broke a personal rule and watched the clip. Are they trying to manufacture a "Katrina" for President Obama? Then they bring out the it's cold out so no such thing as global warming canard. A buffet of lies and stupid.

    • Redgyal

      Yes on the Katrina thing. They even said it. So if he wins that will be the story until Inauguration Day.

    • natl_[redacted]_cmdr

      Yes. They are trying so hard to make this a Katrina and then throwing various crap at the walls to see what sticks.

  • redarmyzombie

      I always knew Trump was a dick, but WOW!

      huh. so when I am hanging out in the VERY COLD Hinterlands of the Global Warming Disproving North, I would NOT want to waste my time on Staten Island? You wanna talk about PISSED?

I can do that here in 3 seconds (I kinda really like the accent, but I truly can't make out a lot of the words).

      • Some parts of Staten Island are really quite lovely, and those are the ones up on the hill.

            Two or three month ago, I was filling up my car with gas in my nabe in Brooklyn, when in rolled this pimped-up Cadillac Escalade piece of shit and out popped a classic Italian fat fuck, slicked back hair, wearing a track suit, chains and with a cigar jammed in his yap that he didn't put out even though he was gasing his tank.

            I was fascinated. He paid at the little booth on the forecourt by pulling out of his tracksuit pocket the fattest roll of bills I've ever seen.

            He paid and drove off heading straight for the Verrazano Bridge and back to Staten island.

        • Redgyal

          You could say that about a lot of the city. In fact most of it, no?

      • prommie

        You will not need a translator, northren racists are quite clearly racist. There is no damn reason to ever ever go to Staten Island anyway except for the one exception of transiting it for the sole reason of riding the Staten Island Ferry which is the greatest free sightseeing tour and fun thing to do that I love. I cannot wait to take you with me next time!

    The fact that a tropical storm of such magnitude as to cause blizzard conditions in Appalachia is evidence that the temperatures aren't rising. Am I following this right? It's giving me a headache. Grrrr. And brrr.

  • Once again, global warming doesn't exist because it is almost seasonably cold in november. Nevermind that on October 29th, it still inexplicably was short-sleeves weather, and that between October 29th and today, there was that pesky Worst Hurricane To Hit The Northeast In A Generation, and that Hurricanes rely on warm water in order to maintain strength so there is LITERALLY no way they can wander this far north unless the Atlantic is very warm.

    All that matters is, it's (almost) seasonably cold at this one point in late autumn, therefore global warming is a hoax, because the Bible. QED.

  • Mittaplasia

    Needs haircolor, it looks like the thing hovering over Newt's head.

    • Dynel doesn't turn gray.

      From the dBay "vintage" guide: "Dynel: Dynel is an animal product and looks like mohair but is not as dense. It is awful to comb and will not hold a curl. It was generally used on "budget" dolls such as Royal Company, Marilu, Unmarked dolls, Imperial, Eegee, and some Made in USA dolls. Effanbee also used dynel wigs on some of their "Honey" dolls. Check out the Honey Tintair, it is pretty but when combed tends to look rather unkept. Artisan's Raving Beauty also utilized the dynel wig, but was also offered in saran. The wigs came in various shades of brown and blonde, and are soft to the touch. The budget dynel wigs typically will have a seam in the back of the head near the bottom. The dynel wigs tend to not be as "thick" as mohair and the other materials. It is common to find a played-with doll with "bald spots" in the back because there was never a lot of hair there to begin with. It is a difficult wig material because it does not comb nor does it curl. It has no shine, so tends to have a dull appearance.
