Global Warming Headline of the Day

Al Gore said that the Earth has a fever. Catchy, alarmist metaphor -- what passes for sober scientific assessment these days.

Here's the latest alarmist headline, compliments of the Financial Times --

"Bush plays for time as the planet begins to burn".

It's official -- the planet has begun to burn.

Someone should host a global warming alarmist headline contest, with the winning headline published in all the leading newspapers of the world.

But wait a minute. Where have I heard this headline, or something like it, before?

I got it --

"Bush Fiddles while Earth Burns".

And that's the way this scorched earth Ball bounces.
