We still get to drill for Arctic oil don't we?

No one but Fox Noise can seem to explain this 'hoax'.

A few weeks ago rightards cheered potato farming in Greenland and the
prospects of oil drilling in the Arctic as proof that AGW was a good
thing.

This whole thing reminds me of the old chicken thief joke:

The chicken thief is arrested and taken before a judge. The chicken
thief's lawyer proves that the chicken thief wasn't in the area at the
time of the theft and introduced witnesses and other irrefutable
evidence. Eventually the judge declares the chicken thief innocent
and the chicken thief then asks the judge, "does this mean I get to
keep the chickens?"

No.

Oil All Gone
Johan Leaky, Environmentalist

SCIENTISTS at the University of East Anglia (UEA) have announced that
all oil is now gone. No more oil. Especially no more oil in the
Arctic. An anticipated PEER-REVIEW of this announcement is underway
however SCIENTISTS at the University of East Anglia (UEA) are having
difficulty locating the raw geological data and suggest maybe it was
thrown away with the raw temperature data on which their previous
predictions of global warming were based.

THIS JUST IN!

AP - 11/30/09

Beernut, GA - Failed President and Jesus-Wannabe Carpenter Jimmy
Carter made the following announcement today: "Global Warming
scientists are full of shit. There is no mo oil anyway. And nuclear
power made me the brain-damaged pussy I am today. Drink beer. All is
lost. And that Negro Presnit can kiss my 100% all-white ass!"
