Clouds Don't Cause Climate Change, Study Shows
Clouds only amplify climate change, says a Texas A&M University professor in a study that rebuts recent claims that clouds are actually the root cause of climate change.

I'm sure that all the global-warming denialists who pounced on this theory will now apologize and stop saying that the role of clouds proves that humans aren't causing climate change.

2. Of course it's not the clouds. It's the TREES!!1!
according to Dana Rohrbacher (R-Idiot)

"Looking for a solution to global warming? Maybe start clear-cutting many of the world's forests, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher says."

5. Mere material clouds don't cause climate change, angels do.
And besides, there's no climate change anyway, so why worry?

Oops, then does that mean that there are no angels? ;-)

6. There are angels. However
they're all fully occupied with dancing on the heads of pins, so they have no effect on anything.

Once the liberals succeed in outlawing pins, however, no one knows what will happen.
