who paid for Fucks news global warming debunk ?
Merdedick trotted out reliable debunkers (there's apparently a small set of them) who trotted out their usual arguments. This was their big "demolition" of claims of global warming, particularly the CO2-induced variety. Anyone know who sponsored this bolus ? Someone should housetrain Merdedick, his producing nightsoil wherever he happens to be has really outlived its welcome.

See following for deflation of the debunk poltroons: http://www.scottchurchimages.com/enviro/docs/MSU-Troposphere-Skeptic01.pdf

1. You paid for it...
...the last time you filled your gas tank.

(ie., it's mostly the oil companies)

2. Relying on a 90 page document after a badly written paragraph...
Come on, you can do better than that. I don't really think that the fervor of one's beliefs really is an excuse for swearing, intentional misuse of words and then just saying, "Go read this 90 page document!" as if that waives all responsibility to put forward one's own arguments or summations.

But whatever.

6. I'm not tracking your intent
I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Fucks donated an hour of airtime to global warming debunkers, who trotted out their same tired arguments from their same pool of 20 scientists, pseudo- and otherwise. I don't have to argue a damned thing, I let people who are qualified to do so do it for me, unlike this administration and conservatives in general, for whom facts are valid in direct correlation to the material power held by those presenting them, i.e. relativist bullshit. How do you feel about Fucks' presentation ?

Sorry about the repeated swearing by the way, but expletives are a very concise way to deliver connotational meaning in fact, so I use them as I see fit. After all, everyone understands the meaning of "fucking conservative".

3. The same people skeptical about global warming...
are the same ones who are certain that gay marriage is a threat.

They're also the ones who forward every email they get to their entire distribution list because they've never heard of Snopes.com
