He thinks in order to get 97% of scientists, you to have AT LEAST 97 scientists to poll. What a dumb ass. Honestly, Maher did a pretty decent job of putting up with this clown's BS and calling him on a lot of it. Of course "man-on-dog" did his best to blather over the top of Maher's objections, but we all get the point.

Not only is he anti-science, he's anti-math as well. What a complete dumb ass.

... by examining 11,944 peer-reviewed scientific articles published between 1991-2011. All of the data--the papers, the classifications, etc.--are available to the public to examine independently. See link below.

Rick Santorum is ridiculously uninformed and an embarrassment to the state of Pennsylvania.
