Read an interesting article from McClatchy today, reporting that global temperatures seem to be cooling from their peak in 1998.

Of course, global warming proponents were quick to say this was simply ‘cherry picking’ a small time frame, and that it doesn’t disprove global warming.

But isn’t that the whole issue? All the fear about global warming is based on a relatively small time frame, in the first place. From a larger perspective, the last hundred years of  record-keeping is just a blip on the global temperature radar screen. It appears the global warming proponents can have their own argument used against them.

They insist global warming will resume in the coming years, with a certainty that almost seems hopeful, as if they want it to happen. They have so much invested in the global warming theory, they won’t let updated facts slow them down to re-examine their hypothesis.

I realize a decade of cooling doesn’t prove or disprove anything, but, similarly, does a hundred years of warming?
