Ten-hut!  Drop and give me Two Degrees!

Nobody out there is changing the climate, you got that, soldier?  This is the US Army talking to you.

In an advisory to bloggers entitled "Global Warming: Fact of Fiction [sic]," an Army public affairs official promoted a conference call with [Dr. Bruce] West about "the causes of global warming, and how it may not be caused by the common indicates [sic] some scientists and the media are indicating."

Global warming is for wimps, and so is grammar.  What's that, soldier?  You say NASA just released a report saying that officials have been encouraged to lie about climate change?

Two years after James E. Hansen, the leading climate scientist at NASA, and other agency employees described a pattern of distortion and suppression of climate science by political appointees, the agency’s inspector general has concluded that such activities occurred and were "inconsistent" with the law that established the space program 50 years ago.

Don't try to every other study says West is wrong and that solar activity has a negligible impact on climate change.  Hell, son, what would NASA know about the sun?  Leave it to the Army.  It's hot when we say it's hot.
