Not first warming after ice age

So now I am a member of the Flat Earth Society, just because I don't agree with him (President Barack Obama) about global warming. Just the tactic used by the radicals - if you don't agree with them, you must be some kind of an idiot.
I happen to agree that global warming is happening, but remember we are coming out of the last ice age. About 10,000 years ago, we would have been covered in ice. I propose Obama is the troglodyte for overlooking the geological record that is out there for all to see.
This isn't the first time the earth warmed after an ice age and it probably won't be the last. Or does he believe that the earth started experiencing weather sometime after the biblical creation?
