You poor ignorant idiot. Nobody is "pointing to any weather event" and claiming that any one event has to be a direct result of only global warming. Scientists are pointing at a long series of unusual weather events that form a pattern indicative of climate changes produced by the observed global warming. Global warming is shifting the odds on certain kinds of weather events. Storms and floods that used to happen maybe once a centurey are happening every few years now.

What is "Cult behavior", really, really "insane, certifiable, crazy person Cult behavior", is the behavior of you and the other AGW debier nitwits. You reject the evidence, you reject the testimony of the experts, you believe the really silly and thoroughly debunked myths, dogmas and lies that your cult leaders feed to you and close your minds to the well verified facts of the matter that are accepted by virtually the entire world scientific community, you are very like the members of the Flat Earth Society in your rejection of science, logic and reason. You are a cultist as well as a gullible retard.

No, you anti science cultists point to EVERY weather event and make the claim. That's why no one listens to you clowns any longer.

LOLOL.....oh walleyedretard, you live in such a strange little fantasy world.....kind of like bizarro-world....only even more stupid....

(excerpt)
Publics around the world, including in the United States, perceive climate change as a real danger. In extensive multi-country surveys covering a majority of the world’s population, majorities in almost every nation surveyed believe that global warming is a threat or a problem. Globally, the percentage of respondents holding this view is an overwhelming 84 percent. In the United States, the figure has declined slightly in recent years but remains a robust 70 percent (according to a 2010 Pew poll). Moreover, solid majorities in most countries—including the United States—believe that climate change is related to human activity and that, if it is left unchecked, they will be negatively affected by it in their lifetimes.

"Amid a summer of record-setting heat, a new survey finds that most of Generation X 's young and middle-age adults are uninformed and unconcerned about climate change.

By John Walker, The Fresno Bee, via AP
Only about 5% of Gen Xers, now 32 to 52 years old, are "alarmed" and 18% "concerned" about climate change, reports the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research on Tuesday. Two-thirds, or 66%, of those surveyed last year said they aren't sure global warming is happening and 10% said they don't believe it's occurring.

"Most Generation Xers are surprisingly disengaged, dismissive or doubtful about whether global climate change is happening and they don't spend much time worrying about it," said author Jon D. Miller.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.....oh walleyed, you're such a hoot.....

Let's look at the progression here. First the walleyedretard made this claim:

That's why no one listens to you clowns any longer.

A kooky fable of the denier cultists caused by the fact that they are so out of touch with reality because they've got their heads stuck in a sort of rightwingnut denier cult echo chamber where they continually reinforce each others insanity.

So I point to some facts:

So....there's walleyed's first denier cult myth thoroughly debunked.

Now here's another place where the walleyedretard reveals the true depth of his intellect (about ankle deep on a short mosquito) by not even looking at the polls I linked to, except, apparently, for a glance at the first one, and then, in his usual half-witted way, assuming that all of them had the same date as the first one which was from July of 2009.

Notice how those polls are BEFORE CLIMATEGATE...... No I didn't think an antiscience political troll would notice that. Try looking at the more recent polls you ignorant, deceitful, twit.

This post of ol' walleyed is particularly humorous and ironic since he is, in fact, the "anti-science political troll" who was too stupid to notice that the other polls I linked to were from 2011 and 2012. And of course like most of denier cult trolls, he is still lost in the thoroughly debunked denier dimwit fantasies about the so-called “Climategate".
So I pointed out the dates on the other polls and added another one.

The walleyedretard's response is interesting. First off, when he made his first bogus claim that "no one listens to you clowns any longer" ("clowns" being denier cult code for the world scientific community that is warning everyone about the anthropogenic global warming/climate changes crisis), I naturally assumed that we were talking about everybody on Earth so I was citing international polls that included many other countries and not just Americans ( Americans, after all, comprising only one twenty-third of the world's total population). I should have remembered that most of these rightwingnuts have trouble believing that anyone or anything outside America's borders is significant or even real. So ol' walleyed's (entirely cut&paste) response to having his fantasies debunked is to come up with a poll of of one minority slice of Americans, this being the only poll he could find that even remotely supported his delusions.

Poll: Generation X unconcerned about climate change

Interesting poll. If you look at the specific breakdowns, the genX'ers who identified as Democrats polled at about 50% concerned and those identified as Republicans polled at 0% concerned. That poll doesn't negate the more comprehensive polling I cited, of course, and it only encompasses one narrow slice of the population, one generation of Americans, so-called 'Generation X'. Here's a list of the various generations, as they are commonly referred to.
The various ways and date ranges that generations are referred to:
(excerpts)
The Greatest Generation (born 1901-1925)
Silent Generation (born 1926-1944)
Traditionalists born before 1946
Boomers (born 1945-1964)
Generation X (1965-1981)
GenY (1979-1994)
Gen@ (born 1981-2002)
Millennials (1982-2000)

Just "GenY", covering the 18 to 32 year olds, amounts to about 80 milllion people. I wonder what they think? Walleyed's poll doesn't tell us.

The fact is that a majority of people in most countries around the world understand that global warming and its associated climate changes pose a serious threat to world stability, peace and food security. Most Americans also think that. Like true cultists though, the deniers are convinced that they are secretly in the majority, no matter what the polls say.

In the end, of course, public opinion polls have no bearing on the scientific facts of the matter and the world scientific community is very clear on those.

Just for fun, here's the most recent Gallup poll, just for the walleyedretard.

Americans' Worries About Global Warming Up Slightly
March 30, 2012
(excerpts)
PRINCETON, NJ -- Fifty-five percent of Americans worry a great deal or a fair amount about global warming, up from 51% in 2011, but still significantly lower than the previous high of 72% in 2000. Gallup first asked Americans to rate their concern about "the 'greenhouse effect' or global warming" in 1989, and has measured it as part of the annual Gallup Environment survey every March since 2001. An average of 60% of Americans since 1989 have worried a great deal or a fair amount about global warming, but concern has fluctuated significantly over this time period. After increasing in the late 1990s and rising to a high of 72% in 2000, worry declined to a low of 51% in 2004. It picked up again in 2005, reaching 66% in 2008, before falling again in recent years -- including another 51% reading in 2011.

When was the last time any of you remember when a drought condition occurred from Maine to California, and from the Candaian border to the Mexican border?

Incidently, the above map is a few weeks old.

It's now actually worse than the above suggests.

For example, my orchard here on the eastern coast of Maine has had a complete crop failure for the first time ever.

Pears splitting from a lack of water while still on the tree.

I think it was worse in the 30's. We also had a Progressive President then, is there a correlation between Progressive Administrations and drought?

Hang in a few days. Issac will change that map by Monday. And I don't see any drought marked anywhere IN Maine..

BTW: Define "drought" because even the USGS seems confused..

Water Information - USGS Water Resources of Maryland, Delaware, and D.C. Area (WRD MD-DE-DC)

•Drought: Dryness due to lack of rain... An absolute drought is a period of at least 15 consecutive days to none of which is credited 0.01 inches of rain or more. A partial drought is a period of at least 29 consecutive days, the mean daily rainfall of which does not exceed 0.01 inches. A dry spell is a period of at least 15 consecutive days to none of which is credited 0.04 inches or more... The definitions of absolute drought anf partial drought were introduced in British Rainfall, p. 21, 1887, while that of dry spell was first used in British Rainfall, p. 15, 1919 [from Meteorological Glossary, Air Ministry, 3rd ed., London, 1944, p. 68.] [from Glossary of Geology and Related Sciences, American Geological Institute, Washington, D.C., 1957, p. 89.).

To use THAT definition --- California and most of the West is perpetual drought for 7 months of the year EVERY YEAR!!! On the other hand -- many of those maps don't tell you agricultural conditions because they are are based on ANNUAL rainfall reset at a specific time. Before anyone panics looking at a pseudocolored map -- they ought to catch the DEFINITION used to create that little factoid...
