2. well I give it a C grade from an F on Friday
They still never mentioned the fact that winter temperatures are higher across the globe and that el-nino is exacerbated by GW. Ah well, maybe when the GE CEO loses his oceanfront home the news will change.

:(

9. true I agree improved but a long way to go... but we did have an impact....
I am sure they would have stood by the "once and for all" BU**SH** withot our- people who care -who heard the blatant absolutist LIE. The Stanford Professor would not have been on IMHO.
Lets keep working on other lies. http://jarnocan.blogspot.com http://afterdowningstreet.com

3. Last week Brian Williams led into a story saying "once and for all,
is the heat in the East cause by global warming"? Then the story runs, the guy says it isn't global warming at all, but just el Nino. So how does Williams end the story. With a "well there you have, once and for all". I was on the floor laughing.

4. The effects of Global Warming are not dramatic enough to be the sole cause of the abnormal...
heat in NYC. Global Warming occurs at a snails pace, and is rather irreversible. I wish people like yourself would stop this BS already, you're taking away credibility from a very serious issue which is already not easy to understand because of it's long term nature.

6. oh duh, I think most of us know that. They had an official
on Friday that said the strange weather across the country was "NOT at ALL" global warming. Even the lead in seemed like a political set up Brian saying "once and for all" a very dismissive inaccurate answer. http://video.msn.com/v/us/msnbc.htm?g=0E3C8471-E243-43AD-A98C-7DADD99BDF1C&f=00&fg=copy
http://video.msn.com/v/us/msnbc.htm?g=0E3C8471-E243-43AD-A98C-7DADD99BDF1C&f=00&fg=copy Bill Nye on MSNBC Sat. -an earlier clip was even but but couldn't find it.
Today Brian mentioned letters received, and they had a pretty good interview with a professor from Stanford, about how global warming magnifies other phenomenon.

5. This weekend on MSNBC
Bill Nye the Science Guy was being interviewed by that bubble head Alex Witt and he told her that it was both Global Warming and El Nino and that we needed to start to do things to change
things in a hurry

I was surprised when Alex agreed with him and they talked about Global Warming for about two minutes
