Global Warming
now officially over
according to Fox News
See the cold weather
Make fun of Al Gore and
those scientists who
can’t realize it is cold outside
Whew, what a relief to us all
No more problems with glacier melt
Ice caps will be fine,
no more sea-level increases
All over
I was so mistaken to believe
this was just a colder than normal
blast of cold air during a season
called Winter
But Fox is clear, this cold disproves
Global Warming
So I am glad it is over
It is over, right?
