Yesterday, a Senate panel approved a bill on global warming:

Yet, it was snowing:

Now, it seems to me that everytime something major dealing with global warming comes up, it gets really cold and/or snows. For example, Al Gore addressing people in New York City about the issue...on the coldest day in NYC history. Now, I'm not someone who believes that every weather event is a judgment or a blessing from God, but I feel that with this He is definitely proving His sense of humor. Anyone else agree?

Well, according to Algore, record lows are actually the result of Global Warming as well. That's why we've moved along from using the phrase "global warming" to "climate change". It's a much better catch-all for any type of weather phenomena.
