CNN’s Dobbs on Global Warming Hysteria: ‘It’s Almost a Religion without Any Question’

From illegal immigration and trade to voter fraud, CNN’s Lou Dobbs is never shy about expressing his opinions. That rule held true when Dobbs brought up global warming on Jan. 5.
The outspoken host of “Lou Dobbs Tonight” observed that global warming activists treat their belief in global warming like a religion following a segment about the issue by CNN correspondent Ines Ferre.
“The one issue here, and as we have examined and reported on the issue of global warming, uh, it is so clear that on both sides, but particularly the pro-global warming, if there’s such a thing, uh, if I can put it that way, uh, there, they bring this thing to a personal belief system,” Dobbs said. “It’s almost a religion without any question.”
Dobbs noted how “miniscule” man’s impact on the climate is compared to other factors, specifically sunspot activity.
“And what we are watching now – we’re in the second year of the solar sunspot activity cycle – an 11-year cycle and many scientists are saying, ‘My gosh, compared to what our sun can do – man has miniscule influence,’” Dobbs said.
Dobbs also said that data is cherry-picked to make the case for global warming alarmism.

“Well, passionate – we’re all concerned about this planet. We’re concerned about our atmosphere, our air, our water and our children’s, uh, futures,” Dobbs said. “But, there seems to be such a crowding out of facts and objective assessment of those facts, uh, and as the scientist – the climatologist in your report suggested – there’s such selective choices of data, as one discusses and tries to understand the reality of the issues that make up global warming.”
The climatologist Dobbs referenced from Ferre’s report was Joseph D’Aleo – the executive director of The Heartland Institute’s International Climate and Environmental Change Assessment Project. Heartland will be hosting the 2009 International Conference on Climate Change in New York City March 8-10.
“We are too short-sighted over certainly the, uh, those who believe in it are not looking at the big picture, which it needs to include other factors than natural cycles, and the ocean and the sun that are the real drivers,” D’Aleo said.

But he hurt himself by citing someone from the Heartland Institute.

Global warming is a scam to further tax & control the sheeple!
Al Gore is not a climatologist nor meteorologist, he is NWO/globalist whore!!!
Notice how Gore/Whore did nothing to contest the “stolen” 2000 election???

At my site, I have links to Mainstream News in which they openly discuss the Carlyle group buying up ALL of the outlets. I also have the mainstream news reporting the possibility of a “cybergeddon” in which we lose all the internet. This coming from the FBI. I suspect it will happen right after FCC approval of the MSM. Please, get the word out to everyone before we lose all ability to contact each other. Peace, Jim

This is like the old story of good cop bad cop, you have all the other idiots that stand behind all the talking heads that claim that this Global warming crap is real and then comes Lou Dobbs to play the good cop and make you think that he’s all against the msm viewpoints but just remember who signs his paychecks, mark my words, there is an agenda.

Global Warming would be a religion were it not supported by scientific methodology. Religion is belief despite evidence to the contrary. SCIENCE is theory SUPPORTED by evidence.
The claim that GW theory doesn’t include comparison against natural cycles is complete bullshit. Claims that solar forcing is responsible for climate change is a myth – there is no such correlation between solar cycles and global temperatures.
There are reams of data supporting the theory of Global Warming. There is NONE to the contrary – only scattered reports of cooler weather with no indication of the degree to which it exceeds norms or whether it was in fact forecast by Global Warming theory. Global Warming theory predicts colder weather and heavier precipitation in the Midwest, Northern Prairie States and the UK.
Sorry, Dobbs is an idiot (on more than merely this topic) and his claim remains unsubstantiated.

Yeah, limbaughs against the idea of “global warming” too. As is hannity. Theyre just playing their part as polarizing and hated political figures, so when you try to speak the truth about “global warming”, or weather, to an average partisan “liberal”, they can respond indignantly with: “Ohhh, so you agree with Limbaugh huh!?” or “Yeah, Sean Hannity thinks the same thing!”. Now Lou Dobbs. All about creating negative associations around ideas.

Mark Gutting-Kilzer worships at the alter of a scientific dictatorship.

“Owning the Weather by 2025″
Alter of scientific dictatorship? WTF is that?
Its you flat-earth, global warming deniers that are willing to sacrifice thousands of species (including billions of humans) to your god of insolent ignorance.
