Rush Limbaugh-Irresponsible Headlines Scream of "Worst Drought Ever" and El Nino, But We've Gone 21 Years Without Global Warming!

RUSH: Now, I just saw this.  It doesn't matter what network.  I'll just tell you it was Fox, but it doesn't matter what network.  As you know -- let me set the table -- there is a horrible drought in California.  It's worse than any drought has ever been ever at any time, anywhere on the planet.  This drought is so bad that it's given other droughts a bad name as frauds.  It's a drought so bad we can't recover from this drought.  This drought, and it's all because of global warming that, by the way, isn't happening, 21 years with no temperature increase.

...So here comes Fox News, and they have a report on the upcoming El Nino that people are now thinking they see forming out there in the far reaches of the western Pacific.  And it's looking bad, folks.  Oh, man, it's looking bad.  It looks to rival the El Nino we had in 1997, and they got some meteorologist hack to come on and tell everybody the following:  It's going to be a lot of rain, but it isn't going to alleviate the drought by a thimble.

You know why?  Because it's gonna cause so much damage, it's gonna wash away so much property that the rain that we get is not going to result in any drought relief whatsoever.  And that is just flat-out irresponsible.  I'm sorry.  This global warming stuff's bad enough, but now we've got these people predicting doom six, seven months away from now based on an El Nino they think is forming. And now they're already telling us it's gonna be really bad, so much rain, it will not help the drought.  Now, go figure that.

It was a news report.  I'm not blaming Fox. They found some meteorologist expert, probably put out a press release with a logo and so forth that makes himself an expert, and he's out just preaching doom and gloom to everybody.  So in the middle of one of the worst droughts in the history of droughts, a forecast is for massive El Nino rains this winter, but it isn't gonna matter, it isn't gonna matter.  You know why?  'Cause you're gonna lose your house, and roads and bridges are gonna wash away.  And it's going to be utter disaster.  How can the people of this country ever, on a single given day, feel optimistic about anything if they happen to watch the news?  It's impossible.

...Oh, yes, and of course it's because of global warming.  Yes, even though we haven't had one of these since 1997, yes, it's because of global warming.  Anyway, it just ticks me off.  Meanwhile, Daily Caller: "Earth Is Nearly In Its 21st Year Without Global Warming -- After September of this year, the Earth will be entering its 22nd year without statistically significant warming trend, according to satellite-derived temperature data."

Not computer models, not projections, not wild guesses, but actual satellite data, the most reliable data there is.  "Since September 1994, University of Alabama in Huntsville’s satellite temperature data has shown no statistically significant global warming trend. For over 20 years there’s been no warming trend apparent in the satellite records and will soon be entering into year 22 with no warming trend apparent in satellite data.
