Video - Obama on Climate Skeptics in Congress: ‘I’m Going to Just Pretend Like, I Don’t Know, I Can’t Read.”

President Obama on Wednesday mocked members of Congress who challenge man-made climate change, saying in many cases they really believed otherwise but didn’t want to be run out of town by those who call it “a liberal plot.”

The ‘Gore Effect’ Strikes Downunder.

The ‘Gore Effect’ Strikes Downunder. HT: WUWT.

Craig Kelly, MP writes:

With Al Gore visiting Canberra today, it’s little surprise that the ‘Al Gore Effect’ has struck again.

The ‘Al Gore Effect’ is defined by the Urban Dictionary as;

“the phenomenon that leads to unseasonably cold temperatures, driving rain, hail, or snow whenever Al Gore visits an area to discuss global warming.”

There are countless examples of Al Gore visiting a city, only for freezing below normal temperatures to strike.

Simply the phenomenon of the ‘Al Gore Affect’ is Mother Nature laughing at Al Gore, as he jet sets around the world preaching that we are all doing to fry, Mother Nature turns on an icy blast of freezing weather.

In Canberra it was only last month that the Bureau of Meteorology foretold that Canberra was likely to experience “a dry and warmer-than-average winter”.

But as Al Gore rolled into Canberra – so to did blizzard conditions, icy temperatures and a big dump of snow in surrounding mountains.

"When Hell freezes over" - Time-Warner: The hell you'll put al-Jazeera on our cable network.

"When Hell freezes over" - Time-Warner: The hell you'll put al-Jazeera on our cable network.HT: IsraelMatzav.

On Wednesday, al-Jazeera purchased Al Gore's Current TV network for $500 million. And on Thursday, Time-Warner, the largest cable operator in the US, announced that it was dropping Current TV because Time-Warner refuses to broadcast al-Jazeera .

Time Warner Cable pulled the plug on Current TV just hours after news of the cable channel's sale to Al Jazeera became official.
"This channel is no longer available on Time Warner Cable," read an on-screen message where Current TV used to be found.
Al Jazeera took a major step into the U.S. cable market Wednesday by acquiring beleaguered Current TV and announcing plans for a U.S.-based news network to be called Al Jazeera America. But while the new channel will soon be available in 40 million households, Al Jazeera faced a setback when Time Warner Cable -- which reaches 12 million homes -- announced it was dropping the low-rated Current, which occupied a spot that could have been switched to Al Jazeera America.
Joel Hyatt, who co-founded Current TV with former Vice President Al Gore, told staff in a Wednesday night memo that Time Warner Cable "did not consent to the sale to Al Jazeera."
"Consequently, Current will no longer be carried on TWC," Hyatt wrote. "This is unfortunate, but I am confident that Al Jazeera America will earn significant additional carriage in the months and years ahead."
A Time Warner Cable spokesman said in a statement that "our agreement with Current will be terminated and we will no longer be carrying the channel."
Al-Jazeera is the mouthpiece of the anti-Semitic Qatari government. The fewer people who carry it, the better. Hmmmm......."When Hell freezes over" Hahahaha.Read the full story here.
