NOAA Reports Lower Than Normal Temperatures For 2008

Though this post probably should be put under the heading of "Science" it clearly points out the hypocrisy of Global Warming. That in the face of real data, the arguments just don't hold up. So in effect, when the claims of rising temperatures fly in the face of blatantly obvious science... the "believers" in the Global Warming religion still refuse to accept it.

NOAA has charted the temperatures here in the continental US over the course of this year to date... the chart clearly shows lower than average temperatures. The main coinciding factor to this data, is the near absence of sunspots for the past two years while the Sun has been in the midst of a Solar Minimum between sunspot cycles. Only recently in the last few weeks, have solar observations showed a slight increase in this sunspot activity, which many astronomers believe is the signal that the Solar Minimum is at an end and the beginning of the next 11 year cycle.
