Has a liberal even attempted to answer the question I asked? No, they did not.
If man made global warming is indeed such a fact, then why the obvious concerted effort to change the terminology from man made global warming, to CLIMATE CHANGE.
None of you have explained why the change was made.
Let me take a stab at why there is the concerted effort.
C3: Global Cooling: Data/Evidence/Trends
The HadCRUT4 global temperature dataset for 2013 was just published. On review of the released annual temperature averages that the UK experts calculated, the calendar year 2013 global temp was cooler than the 1998 mark.
So, during that 15 years of massive human CO2 emissions, the fearsome "runaway" warming was not so much. In fact, after the spewing of some 450 gigatons of fossil fuel emissions the temperature needle hasn't budged, it's actually lower in 2013.
The UK's findings match what other climate experts have found and are now debating the cause. This 'Pause' (aka 'The Hiatus') in global warming has even been noted in Congressional testimony as a matter of official record.
As a reminder, the 'Pause' described:
"The biggest mystery in climate science today may have begun, unbeknownst to anybody at the time, with a subtle weakening of the tropical trade winds blowing across the Pacific Ocean in late 1997...Average global temperatures hit a record high in 1998 — and then the warming stalled....But the pause has persisted, sparking a minor crisis of confidence in the field. Although there have been jumps and dips, average atmospheric temperatures have risen little since 1998, in seeming defiance of projections of climate models and the ever-increasing emissions of greenhouse gases."
It was noted previously that the continental U.S. has been cooling over the last 16 years, at a rate of minus 3.8°F per century rate. This was not predicted by any U.S. climate scientist, nor by NOAA, nor by NASA and certainly not by the political technocrats at the UN's IPCC.
As the NOAA/NCDC climate record reveals, the breadbasket areas of American have been cooling for a longer period - 17 years. The above images reflect the empirical evidence for the primary U.S. corn growing areas., which is cooling at a minus 4.0°F/century rate.
The other major 3 crop regions all show similar type of cooling rates over the last 17 years ending 2013. (see: soybean temperatures, map; spring wheat temperatures, map; and winter wheat temperatures, map)
If this cooling trend were to continue, it would spell disaster for the world's hungry. Let's hope 'the pause' in global warming does not last much longer since it unfortunately seems to project a cooling regime over the U.S.

Note: The temperature charts were produced by this NOAA/NCDC site using these display options/parameters.
There is a lot more evidence of a cooling trend over the last 17+ years. Now that even democrats and these types are using "climate change" instead of "global warming," describe in detail why there would such a change. Why, if MAN MADE global warming is such a fact, and remains such a fact, why the concerted effort to change the terminology?
Reason:
We have been right, and you have been wrong. Now that you know that your messiah commie even calls it climate change instead of man made global warming, shouldn't you change too?
Oh, and which conservative ever denied that there is climate change?
I am still waiting for two things.....
1. Explain to me in detail why there is a concerted effort to change the terminology from MAN MADE global warming, to climate change.
2. Show us where any conservative ever denied there is a such thing as climate change.
