Warmer Of The Day

The arrogance of this Capitol Hill bunch never ceases to amaze.

Even though the majority of Americans don’t want socialized medicine, Democrats will ram or shove it up a bodily oraface. Even though a new poll shows that “56 percent of those surveyed don’t trust the things scientists say about the environment”, John Kerry is going to make sure “climate legislation” that would limit carbon dioxide emissions is also rammed through…

“What we have to do is go on the offensive.” The science “has been maligned and misinterpreted, and we need to fight back… people (need to) stop being moved by these talk show (hosts) and start looking for the facts” themselves.”
— Senator John Kerry, interview with the Boston Globe, 3/8/10

If the science has been “maligned”, I would counter that the maligning happened after the revelations of emails where scientists talked freely about manipulating (and withholding Freedom of Information requests challenging) data. If the science was “misinterpreted”, it was intentionally done so by scientists who wanted that grant money flowing in, despite findings that proved their findings were wrong.
