One Nation, Under-Scienced

In the Northern hemisphere, "summer"
and its associated "warm times"
comes when Earth is farthest from the Sun.


That's the science.


But them who loathe Obama march to a different truth:

CO2 has nothing to do with perceptions of anomalous climate change. The true demon here is orbital precession ... Right now, the closest point in the orbit toward the Sun takes place right after Northern Hemisphere winter solstice. That means more land is exposed to the Sun at its closest. Hence, more to warm. ... AGW is the hoax of the century
--Boehner says Obama climate change plan is ‘absolutely crazy’
