Bush Fiddles While Climate Changes
http://kmareka.com/index.php/?p=157
I don't think G.W. Bush is the biggest reason the U.S. is fiddling
while the world climate changes. National Weather Service
meteorologists (about 5,500 federal employees at NWS) have been
saying skeptical things to the public like … global warming is no
more than a statistical fluke … since the 1990s, and may still be
saying things like that now.

TV-radio people get much of their training and guidance from NWS
staff, then pass the views that they pick up on to the public,
almost every day. The explanations these people give the public
about the warmer winters of the last 8-10 years in the Upper Midwest
are weak or wrong, often blaming warmer temperatures on a lack of a
snow cover. They frequently remind the public in their broadcasts,
about a recent colder period, typical roller coaster temperatures
and alleged near normals, as if these warmer and warmer winters
are not unusual and can be explained away as typical variability in
weather.
Wrong. I blame the government meteorologists and their managers,
directors and administrators for a large part of the fiddling while
the world climate changes, and I blame Bush too for going along with
the misleading and just plain wrong explanations by weather people,
Crichton and a few others. The blame should go to many people not
just the shrub in the White House.
