Jerry Brown Forced to Walk Back LAX Global Warming Lie

Great news — despite shrill assertions by California’s moonbat governor, LAX won’t soon be underwater after all:

An aide to Jerry Brown confirmed Wednesday that the governor was wrong when he said global warming would eventually cause rising seawater to inundate Los Angeles International Airport.

Citing new studies, Brown called attention to the global warming issue on Tuesday, saying a predicted 4-foot rise in sea level within the next 200 years could force the relocation of LAX at a cost of billions of dollars.

But various sources say that the nation’s third-busiest airport — bordered by the Pacific Ocean — has elevations ranging from 108 feet to 126 feet and is protected by higher coastal bluffs on the west side.

“The governor misspoke about LAX,” said Evan Westrup, a spokesman for the Brown administration.

That is to say, he was screaming hysterical lies, like every other demagogue who exploits the global warming hoax.

In addition, a recent study by USC’s Sea Grant Program did not identify LAX as one of the coastal areas in Los Angeles threatened by [a strictly theoretical] sea level rise.

Even if LAX were at sea level, no reasonable person believes that failure to increase taxes and regulations would put it under water. Fortunately for Governor Moonbeam and his party, voting is not limited to reasonable people.

We need more taxes and regulations or soon the sea will rise up to here!!!

    Global Warming causes lies too

  • Professor Hale

    That’s what happens when you try to overlay your make-believe political theory on top of topographical reality.

  • jackchrista

    Firebugs can cause global warming!! Also, burning old dead wood etc during extremely high wiinds in desert drought conditions is definitely a no no!

  • Son of the Rabbit People

    LAX could still be used as an airport for float planes.

  • Media Mentions

    At this point, I’m trying to understand how the average layperson is supposed to have an objective perspective on global warming if even the scientific community is so divided. Honestly, the best solution I have found so far is to just follow multifaceted debates like the one on PressReader http://www.pressreader.com/profile/Spotlight/bookmarks/global_warming. If anyone has better ideas, I’m all ears.

  • Professor Hale

    Another was to look at it is, “Fine, if you think it is such a big problem, spend your own money to fix it, I am unconvinced so I will be doing something else with my money, like trying to stay warm this winter”.

  • Henry

    I want Moonbeam himself to admit he was wrong.

    Just shows that they will say anything to advance the “Global Climate Disruption” lie.

    Picture caption: My marijuana plants are this tall…

  • Media Mentions

    very apt, and point taken

  • Pork_Soda

    Other possible pic captions; “I can pile up the bullsh*t this high!!”, “The stack of dollahs you’ll need to continue living ’round these parts for what me and the state legislature have in store for you.”

    I’ve just about had it here in the San Francisco bay area with astronomical housing prices, some of the highest gas prices, a 9%+ sales tax, food costs, etc.

    Bailing to the Pacific northwest is looking better and better even if they have sizeable moonbat populations In OR and WA. Anyone live in the Portland area who could give me some tips?? Oy vey…

    =“The governor misspoke about LAX,” said Evan Westrup, a spokesman for the Brown administration.=
    OK, I’ll allow that. Now then Governor, just what did you MEAN to say about LAX and/or the sea level? We’re waiting…”

  • Fudge

    They may not soon be underwater (they will when the big one hits) but they are already covered in shit.

  • Fudge

    We live across the river from Portland for 22 years. We left 12 years ago for the Midwest. My advice, don’t go there.

    Would that have been Vancouve WA? Looks like a cute suburb. What drove you out or was there better opporunities elsewhere?
