2009 to be one of the hottest years on record

Next year is set to be one of the five warmest on record, climate scientists have predicted.
The average global temperature for 2009 is expected to be more than 0.4C above the long term average, making next year warmer than this year and the hottest since 2005, the Met Office and University of East Anglia researchers said.

Next year is expected to be in the top five warmest on record despite the cooling influence of the Pacific weather phenomenon known as La Nina, in which cold waters rise to the surface and cool ocean and land temperatures.
Just Great.

Now they are giving a time table, I hope it's cold next summer. Maybe that will convince some of the fence sitters about this BS. Didn't The Farmer's Almanac predict that this was going to be a cold winter?

It's true. I bet August will be considerably warmer than January.

It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

They'll be the first to crow if it is even slightly warmer than the median temp, giving them a 50-50 shot at claiming some level of success, but nobody will hold them to account if they blow it.  Sweet deal for them, an even chance at being Global Warming heroes, and no consequences at all on the downside.

And if it isn't hotter, then Al Gore will win the No-Bell Piece Prize and a bicycle for selling the most carbon credits.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
