You Thought The Ed Begley Census Commercial Was A Waste Of Money?
The Obama administration is in the process of forming a new government agency dedicated to addressing the impending doom of global warming:
U.S. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke today announced the intent to create a [National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration] Climate Service line office dedicated to bringing together the agency’s strong climate science and service delivery capabilities.
Apparently there is a big demand from the American public for “relevant and timely information” about global warming “to inform decision-making about virtually all aspects of their lives”–such a big demand, we need a new government agency to manage it.
“By providing critical planning information that our businesses and our communities need, NOAA Climate Service will help tackle head-on the challenges of mitigating and adapting to climate change,” said Secretary Locke. “In the process, we’ll discover new technologies, build new businesses and create new jobs.”

With apologies, we only send the best of WA state to Washington DC. Place bets on how soon Gov. Chris Gregoire heads east…probably as soon as she sees her poll numbers go south.

You can have Locke back. Oh, and he’ll be bringing back a bathroom and a set of towels he stole from the White House. And if I’m not mistaken Joe Biden inadvertently fell asleep in his suitcase, so he might be arriving at Sea-Tac with him.
PS. Don’t send Joe back. Just give him a banana and a couple of oatmeal cookies and let him take the ferry to the peninsula.

The initial meeting of NOAA has been cancelled due to reports of a severe winter storm and 15 inches of new snow expected in the Washington area. All government offices will be closed on Tuesday, February 9. Further details will be forthcoming as they develop.

VP Joe found wandering in the Hoh Rainforest dumbfounded to only find trees there.

“Strong climate science and service delivery capabilities?”
NASA, the people who put men on the moon, have been officially hijacked to deliver the biggest snow job on Earth.
China promised Barry a set of beads made of moonrocks.

illustr8r,
Is that anywhere near the hot mud springs? I went to those with my ex-husband once. They stank to high heaven.

“dedicated to bringing together the agency’s strong climate science and service delivery capabilities.”
I have no idea what this means, if it means anything. Until then, I choose to believe that it means that NOAA personnel will surf the web looking for pictures of young, nubile and very naked protestors.

Wyatt, I was hoping they’d continue with their original mission; finding young, nubile and very hot naked E.T.s

I’ve got about 3 feet of snow in my neck of the wood this weekend with another foot heading this way. I thought gloBull warming ment no more cold and snow.

NOAA and NASA global warming co-conspirators?

Watch for the change, it is already beginning. Now that the anthropogenic climate change fraud has been uncovered, those who have been using that little number to agitate for the destruction of modern technological civilization are moving on to nitrogen and oceanic pH. Probably more than just those two to hedge their bets.
“Hmm, let’s see. Global cooling didn’t work. Ozone hole didn’t work. Global warming didn’t work even after we cleverly changed that to ‘climate change.’ Might as well try those last few items on the list and work on digging more crap to sell to the gullible watermelons.”

Speaking of the idiocy of “climate change science,” I’m looking at the little ad to the column’s right and seeing the Nissan LEAF. I’m thinking “golf cart which a) can’t carry more than one set of clubs and, b) won’t be permitted on the course anyway.” (Not to diss your sponsors, but) WTF?
