After flirting with Barking Moonbat status since losing the 2004 presidential election, Waffles Kerry has officially joined the club

John Kerry has written an op-ed for the Huffington Post comparing the inaction in response to a heating planet to the inaction of President Bush before September 11th.

Kerry reaches deep into the bag of global warming hysterics to uncork this piece, saying that the fate of the nation hinges upon the passing of some sort of climate change legislation.

And what did he write?

On August 6, 2001, President George W. Bush famously received an intelligence briefing entitled, “Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.” Thirty-six days later, al Qaeda terrorists did just that.

Scientists tell us we have a 10-year window — if even that — before catastrophic climate change becomes inevitable and irreversible. The threat is real, and time is not on our side.

No, seriously, he wrote that. Well, I could do like the Left does with Sarah Palin, and claim someone else wrote it, but, this is not the first time Waffles has written for the HuffPo. Now, I see no reason to get into the idiocy of the August 6th PDB. It has been done a gazzillion and 1 times. As for the 10 year window, Gore threw that out there years ago. Others have said 4 years. Or less. Or more. This is just simply wacko kook fringe barking moonbat talk from someone who he himself fails to live the AGW life he tells everyone else to live.

But, to compare it to 9/11, not to mention using this as a way to Bash Bush, is just pure insanity. Nothing else needs be said. Oh, well, one other thing. Remember, Kerry had his little “global test” and was going to fight a “kindler, gentler, war on terror.” So, pure surrender monkey.

I’d recommend reading the rest of his climahysteric polemic. It is chock full of talking points devoid of reality, such as

The truth is that the threat we face is not an abstract concern for the future. It is already upon us and its effects are being felt worldwide, right now. Scientists project that the Arctic will be ice-free in the summer of 2013. Not in 2050, but four years from now.

Yeah, they said that the Arctic would be ice free a few years ago, too. Didn’t happen. They make lots of predictions, such as an increase in storms and their ferocity. Hasn’t happened. Yet, other scientists say that a cool period is coming. There is a large debate over the veracity of climate models. The climahysterics are losing the debate, and there are some darned good reasons why. Ye Olde Farmer’s Almanac is predicting a really cold winter for most of the USA this year. More and more reports regarding the Sun, solar variability, the tilt of the Earth, how CO2 actually acts in the atmosphere, the fact that the upper regions of the atmosphere have not warmed, and so much more are coming out now that scientists are not scared to do actual science.

Anyhow, Kerry has been trying to horn in on Al Gore’s over the top Climainsanity to score some money and prestige. All he has accomplished has been to become pure Barking Moonbat.
