No matter the problem: remember it is always Global Warming's fault

Fox News has this interesting piece:

Global warming was blamed for everything from beasts gone wild to anorexic whales to the complete breakdown of human society this year -- showing that no matter what it is and where it happens, scientists, explorers, politicians and those who track the Loch Ness Monster are comfortable scapegoating the weather.

FOXNews.com takes a look back at 10 things that global warming allegedly caused — or will no doubt soon be responsible for — as reported in the news around the world in 2008.

1. Cannibalism . . .

2. The Death of the Loch Ness Monster . . .

3. Beer Gets More Expensive . . .

4. Pythons Take Over America . . .

5. Kidney Stones . . .


And more.

Cutting it down meant that you left out Bovine Flatulence?

Personally, I have always felt that politicians created far more hot air problems than did cows. Although I can see a relationship between bovine byproducts and politicians for some strange reason...
