One-Way Reasoning

Weather, we're reminded, isn't climate. Except when Al Gore says so:

"[T]he odds have shifted toward much larger downpours," Gore said. "And we have seen that happen in the Northeast, we’ve seen it happen in the Northwest -- in both of those regions are among those that scientists have predicted for a long time would begin to experience much larger downpours."

But Gore had a specific example in mind. He explained this recent soaking in the Northeastern United States was "consistent" with what global warming alarmists were projecting.

"Just look at what has been happening for the last three days," Gore said. "The so-called skeptics haven’t noted it because it’s not snow. But the downpours and heavy winds are consistent with what the scientists have long warned about."

More evidence that warming theory is merely an illogical tautology. Because the facts show no trend of increased wet weather.
