You and I both know he has special forces deployed in Iraq. You admitted it.
He said he was sending advisors for their military.
We both know they're there.
Don't play dumb.

Except that here, in the real world, that hasn't happened. CO2 levels have risen and temperature has stalled for at least 17 years. Until the hypothesis explains that, and the computer models are fixed to reflect a better understanding of what is really happening and produce accurate predictions, skepticism is in order.

Don't think temps have stalled. believe this is hottest summer on record. Would like to see a documented source on stalled temps.

The only relevant place where any controversy exists about boots on the ground is in Syria and Iraq with respect to ISIS.
You're the stupid one for saying obama kept his no boots promise by only sending spec forces andadvisors.

He can give you an economist funded by Exxon Mobil who has taken an evangelical pledge on the issue. Will that work?

You're right, DD is being purposefully dishonest. 2000-2010 was the hottest decade on record, with '09 being the hottest year recorded since measurements began

Would rather hear it from a Science and Tech. committee Repub.He can give you an economist funded by Exxon Mobil who has taken an evangelical pledge on the issue. Will that work?

nice personal anecdote.
there is life outside of knoxville, tn, bignbushy. one day you'll discover it.

That you progs are unaware of the warming hiatus, and the discrepancy between the predicted corrolation between increased CO2 and global warming that has not panned out does not reflect poorly upon me.
The internet has been awash in this info for years. You are all free to practice your religion, however, this is America.

Although climate models have been predicting increasing average global temperatures over the next century or so, the past decade has not shown as much warming as most scientists had expected. The year 2012 was no warmer than 2002. The IPCC draft report acknowledges a "global warming hiatus," according to media reports.
http://business.financialpost.com/2014/06/16/the-global-warming-hiatus/
While the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) still uses the iconic word “unequivocal” to describe warming of the climate system over the past century, a new word has slipped into its lexicon: the “hiatus.” They have begun referring, with a bit of hesitant throat-clearing, to “the warming hiatus since 1998.”
Both satellites and surface records show that sometime around 2000, temperature data ceased its upward path and leveled off. Over the past 100 years there is a statistically significant upward trend in the data amounting to about 0.7 oC per century. If one looks only at the past 15 years though, there is no trend.
It will by 2017 be impossible to reconcile climate models with reality
A leveling-off period is not, on its own, the least bit remarkable. What makes it remarkable is that it coincides with 20 years of rapidly rising atmospheric greenhouse gas levels. Since 1990, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have risen 13%, from 354 parts per million (ppm) to just under 400 ppm. According to the IPCC, estimated “radiative forcing” of greenhouse gases (the term it uses to describe the expected heating effect) increased by 43% after 2005. Climate models all predicted that this should have led to warming of the lower troposphere and surface. Instead, temperatures flatlined and even started declining. This is the important point about the pause in warming. Indeed, the word that ought to have entered the IPCC lexicon is not “hiatus” but “discrepancy.”

You don't think I was trying to pass that off as a global measure do you?
Considering I started off my sentence with "locally. "
