Earth cooling without a reduction of CO2

I used my air conditioner for all of 48 hours this summer. Here in good old hot, humid, sweaty Iowa. What gives?
The climate change gurus say that this is proof of global warming (or something) caused by too much carbon dioxide.
Without any reduction in CO2, the earth has been cooling since 1998. Where has all the nasty CO2 been hiding for the last decade? Did it scurry up to the North Pole and kill a bunch of polar bears just for the heck of it?
I'll consider man-made global warming when former vice president (and liberal scold) Al Gore and the scientists who get their funding from any government stop pontificating and actually debate the issue.
