Climate Scientists Just Want to Steal David Koch's PRECIOUSSS

PhotobucketQuick reaction to Mitt Romney's now-infamous remarks that the 47 percent of Americans too old, sick or poor to pay income taxes are lazy mooches who want the government to steal more money from rich people so they can get more free goodies.

The war on climate scientists funded by billionaires like the Koch brothers, Richard Mellon Scaife and Philip Anschutz makes much more sense when you look at it through this prism. If you already look out the window and see literally half of your fellow Americans as thieves trying to steal from you, well OF COURSE climate scientists are greedy cheaters manipulating the data to back their phony lying hoax so they can get their grubby little stealing hands on more research grants.

It's a cynical, destructive way to view the world (and life), but I understand it. What I don't understand is why anyone would take them and the organizations they fund seriously as a source for climate science, as the PBS NewsHour apparently did last night.

So disappointing about the NewsHour... (0.00 / 0)
What happened to that show?  Ugh.

Apparently Research Based Evidence is Balanced by Bias Based (0.00 / 0)
The neo-Solomon will offer to split the difference between all claimants no matter their standing. Legitimate science must dignify "popular" sentiment. Light must defer to dark.
