Wishing I could be God too.

When I'm God, I'll see your underpants.
No, not yours. Yours.

In today's WaPost Global Warming Did It! Well, Maybe Not Joel Achenbach condescendingly ledes

We're stuck on the notion that climate change is the culprit every time a natural disaster strikes. But that's just muddying the waters.

... he alludes to this thing called "the scientific process."

A science writer for Newsweek recently flat-out declared that this year's floods in the Midwest were the result of climate change, and in the process, she derided the wishy-washy climatologists who couldn't quite bring themselves to reach that conclusion (they "trip over themselves to absolve global warming").

Well, gosh, I dunno. Equivocation isn't a sign of cognitive weakness. Uncertainty is intrinsic to the scientific process, and sometimes you have to have the courage to stand up and say, "Maybe."

... then dismisses it with a head bob and quick weave to the left. .

Moreover, the evidence for man-made climate change is solid enough that it doesn't need to be bolstered by iffy claims.

There has been no scientific evidence of man caused climate change that has withstood scientific peer revue. NONE.   Al Gore, the public face of this religious cult has consistently refused to debate his climate data. So STFU.

The Global Warming crowd is just the modern variant of the Flat Earth Society.

I don't think he knows what the word "equivocation" means. Saying "Equivocation isn't a sign of cognitive weakness" is a sign of cognitive weakness, anyway.
