I have noticed a shift in the propaganda for global warming and the associated push for command and control federal government policies. We have been told by reputable scientists for decades that any single event is not an indication of any long term trend, yet now it is accepted by many media sources and left wing activists that they are. Hurricane Sandy a category one hurricane was widely reported and accepted as evidence of man made climate change. Please respond to the obvious deception of pop culture scientific reasoning.
