Title: John Kerry Missed The Mark - Big Time
Post by: Florida Cracker on December 08, 2015, 06:11:10 PM
On AUGUST 31, 2009, Old Swift Boat, whoring himself out for donations, on Huffington Post, made the claim that "scientists" proved that the Arctic would be ICE FREE by the Summer of 2013.
NASA recently PROVED that Artic Ice was INCREASING, not going away, but old sift boat can't be bothered to respond.

For those poor souls who will pretend they don't know how to look it up, so it must be untrue...


Mostly False

"Scientists project that the Arctic will be ice-free in the summer of 2013."

— John Kerry on Monday, August 31st, 2009 in an op-ed published in the Huffington Post
Kerry claims the Arctic will be ice-free by summer 2013

By Catharine Richert on Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009 at 4:42 p.m.

Sen. John Kerry says climate change is happening faster than we think.
 
In an Aug. 31, 2009, op-ed in the Huffington Post, the Massachusetts Democrat wrote that the threat of climate change "is not an abstract concern for the future."
 
"It is already upon us and its effects are being felt worldwide, right now," he wrote. "Scientists project that the Arctic will be ice-free in the summer of 2013. Not in 2050, but four years from now. Make no mistake: catastrophic climate change represents a threat to human security, global stability, and — yes — even to American national security."

With the science settled, it's gonna happen and happen soon.  Maybe even 2014 ;)

The Polar Bears are thriving also.  They should drop Kerry off to let him see the Polar Bears, and then, and maybe "commune" with them as they are eating him

Huh. And I thought John Effing Kerry was Secretary of State, and was supposed to be doing, you know, Secretary of State stuff.

Thomas Jefferson must be rolling over in his grave with what the last two Sec States have done to that office.

Obama, Hillary, Kerry, Holder, Jarrett, Michelle, Loretta Lynch, Rahm.........   The list goes on, and on.  The ultimate dream team of the destruction of America, and the implementers of Fundamental Transformation.  Maoist, Lenninist, or Fascist.  Take your pick.

Yeah, the consequences of anthropogenic warming have defied expectations.  Hurricane deficit rather than increase, ice losses in the Antarctic instead of the Arctic, etc.

I just wish I was wrong about ocean acidification.

Maybe Kerry will become a DENIER now.

Blasphemer!

I especially love this one:

18. Kenneth Watt warned about a pending Ice Age in a speech. “The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years,” he declared. “If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”

I know, I know.  There have been so many changes in mathematics that predictions today are SO much better than they were in 1970.  :rolleyes:

(Edit:  I don't know why Tapatalk sometimes truncated the last sentence of a post.  The sentence above should end with " ....1970.")

You have to love academic whores who change the rules and modify the science to fit their agenda...
