It was only the 34th warmest year on record for America.
More record cold temps were set than hot.
You haven't read the articles posted in the thread, have you?
It is only "the warmest" if you go to the umpteenth decimal point.
Typical AGW scam artist bullshit.
When they start measuring the temperature of the Southern Hemisphere like they do the Northern Hemisphere and start including data points in previously mostly ignored areas like Siberia and Africa then maybe they can start to make some real assumptions about average global temperatures but until then not so much so.
As we found out from Climategate I & II when the AGW scam artist don't get the data they want they just invent fudge factors and make up data so the claim is nothing more bullshit.
These shithead AGW scam artist have lost their credibility many years ago but Moon Bats like you are so stupid as to still hang on to this bullshit.
Of course Moon Bats like voted for Obama, twice, thinking he was going to do a good job so we pretty well know you aren't very smart so it is not surprising you believe in this AWG bullshit.
