Really? Global warming will cause the tectonic plates to shift? Why, are the plates on subterranean ice caps or something that someone forgot to teach me about in class?

It occurs to me that when a man says this:

The threat of what happened to Haiti is the threat that could happen anywhere in the Caribbean, to these island nations. You know, they’re all in peril because of global warming, they’re all in peril because of climate change and all this. And we need to find … when we did what we did at the climate summit, in Copenhagen, this is the response, this is what happens, you know what I’m sayin’?

Well, he means what he says. He is explicitly blaming the earthquake on what happened (or didn’t happen) at Copenhagen. Unless you’re saying that it depends what the meaning of “response” is.

All these clowns blaming various natural disasters on supposed “Global Warming” or “Climate Change” (when they remember the globe actually hasn’t been warming the last ten years) must be pig-ignorant how earthquakes and tsumanis originate. And they are too pig-ignorant to realize that the climate will behave like Bernard Baruch’s famous prediction of what the stock market will do: “It will fluctuate.”

BTW, apparently his BFF in Caracas has nationalized a French-owned supermarket chain, claiming they were involved in “price-gouging” following the devaluation of the Bolivar, Venezuela’s currency.
