"The Manchester (N.H.) Union Leader looks at John Kerry's record on "global warming" and unearths this quote from May 2000: "In Massachusetts, we always looked forward to fall because the ponds froze over and we could play hockey. Today, you are lucky if the ponds freeze in northern New Hampshire. Up there . . . I do not wear a coat until after November now."

This quote makes the haughty, French-looking Massachusetts Democrat, who by the way served in Vietnam, look rather silly, given that he's just been campaigning in New Hampshire during a bitterly cold winter. But the global-warming zealots aren't deterred. Today's New York Times carries an op-ed piece by one Paul R. Epstein, who claims--we're not making this up--that global warming causes frigid weather.

When the weather gets warmer, that's because of global warming. When the weather gets colder, that's because of global warming too. "Global warming" thus is unfalsifiable; adherents insist all contrary evidence actually supports the theory. This isn't a scientific hypothesis; it's a conspiracy theory."

Yet again Kerry's own words make him the fool. It's absolutely amazing that Mr flip-flop does not get eviscerated more often on his penchant for gloming onto the issue of the moment and then its converse later on.

This is the coldest winter in many decades in NE. So much for Kerry using anecdotal observation as "proof" of global warming.
