They're predictions. Idiots don't predict. Idiots do nothing.
They do a fair job of spreading lies and misinformation, hacking, misrepresenting and avoidance of responsibility. And dont forget.. enough 'good idiots' doing nothing but nothing and...
It seems to me it would be easier to predict one macro trend (temp rise) based on a sphere full of CO2 rather than micro events inside that sphere which are affected by a greater number of influences.
Take the easy way? They never will.. look at their denial of the damage GWB caused.. They just throw it on Obama. Hahah deniers through and through.. people who will NEVER learn.
That you use "days" as an example tells me you don't really get what's going on. Days mean nothing. Individual years mean next to nothing. They are far less predictable than greenhouse affect and temperature rise over decades. Even then, there will be plenty of mistakes made. It's expected.
Exactly, they are still stuck on Al Gore and still shout weather in a climate debate... doh.
But the one BIG mistake? Nah. We're warming and CO2 is through the roof and climbing.

Look at this 'template' I found Turd:
Climate change denial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Connections to the tobacco lobby
Several journalists have argued that efforts to downplay the significance of climate change resemble the campaign by tobacco lobbyists, after being confronted with new data linking cigarettes to cancer, to shift public perception of the discoveries toward that of a myth, unwarranted claim, or exaggeration rather than mainstream scientific theory.
In 2006, The Guardian discussed similarities in the methods of groups funded by Exxon, and those of the tobacco giant Philip Morris, including direct attacks on peer-reviewed science, and attempts to create public controversy and doubt.[11]
Former National Academy of Sciences president Dr. Frederick Seitz, who, according to an article by Mark Hertsgaard in Vanity Fair, earned about US$585,000 in the 1970s and 1980s as a consultant to R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company,[45] went on to chair groups such as the Science and Environmental Policy Project and the George C. Marshall Institute alleged to have made efforts to "downplay" global warming.
Seitz stated in the 1980s that "Global warming is far more a matter of politics than of climate." Seitz authored the Oregon Petition, a document published jointly by the Marshall Institute and Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine in opposition to the Kyoto protocol. The petition and accompanying "Research Review of Global Warming Evidence" claimed: The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind. There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate. ... We are living in an increasingly lush environment of plants and animals as a result of the carbon dioxide increase. Our children will enjoy an Earth with far more plant and animal life than that with which we now are blessed. This is a wonderful and unexpected gift from the Industrial Revolution.[11]
George Monbiot wrote in the Guardian that this petition, which he criticizes as misleading and tied to industry funding, "has been cited by almost every journalist who claims that climate change is a myth." Monbiot has written about another group founded by the tobacco lobby, The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (TASSC), that now campaigns against measures to combat global warming. In again trying to manufacture the appearance of a grass-roots movement against "unfounded fear" and "over-regulation," Monbiot states that TASSC "has done more damage to the campaign to halt [climate change] than any other body."

It's not only that they use the same template.. they even use the same liars to spread the lies... OMfvck...
