I was in Borders earlier and they had his new book on display. So I flipped through it. In his section on global warming he had this little nugget:

Global warming is another area of lies and deception. Consider this - since CO2 levels have increased, deaths from extreme weather have decreased. And you wont see that in an Al Gore slide show.


He says that like it's a good thing! :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

5. What a complete dumbass....
I reckon modern weather monitoring and warning systems have nothing to do with the decrease in deaths.

Although I am not surprised he wrote such a thing, I quit asking myself "is this guy for real?" a long time ago. I honestly believe he is that stupid!

I was on a trip up north and was "surfing" for some music on the FM dial.
I came across a Saturday night live sketch and was laughing at the absurdity of the Guy talking about life and such.

Then it became clear....Shit!...This wasn't SNL.. this Dude was serious...He was a F*cking Nut!

It was Glenn Beck...(the first time I had heard him)
