But when 99.9% of climate scientist say that humans significantly contribute to increasing global temperature, conservatives deny it.
That's a lie. Ooops, I guess it's you who can't be trusted.

No idea. Why do you lie?

I DO NOT believe in "global warming".

What is the difference between the former and the latter? Global warming is "junk science" that borders on a cult.

What is the difference between you and me? I have published many papers in the actual scientific literature and understand the difference between real science and junk science. You, by pulling the "D" lever in a voting booth, are not conferred with actual degrees and an understanding of the scientific literature, despite what most libs believe.
A cult where 8999 of 9000 scientist who have authored scientific papers in the last year agree that man is contributing to global warming.

i guess by the thread title, one can assume that individuals that label themselves conservative have no opinion on anything

and when they need an opinion they tune into am radio and/or visit a congresswomans webpage?

is this correct?

because there is absolutely no way anyone could not belive in "global warming" "climate change" "global climate warming" whatever it is currently being called

Really? Are you a blogger?

Like Al Gore said "the science is settled".
Who cares what Al Gore says. It's what the scientists say that matter. That's why you guys are desperate to pretend they're frauds.

What that means is they don't want to debate because they know they will lose.
If I didn't want to prove denialists wrong, I wouldn't post. And since when does whining about Al Gore and linking to other denialists saying the same thing you guys do constitute debate? You're not here to debate, you're here to propogate Republican propaganda.

They specialize in Eyewitness Science. They look out the window and if it's snowing in winter that proves global warming is a hoax. They also use Biblical Science to prove that the earth is only 6,000 years old.

Instead of complaining about me you should wow the home audience by showing that your TV host's blog has merit as a scientific publication, or that it's claims are supported by current research. Because all you've told me so far is that someone else believes the same nonsense you do. Showing that someone believes the same nonsense you do doesn't show that it's true.

I wouldn't say they trust them, those pundits just tell people what they want to hear. Those who can't understand science. Like Bill said, the tides go in and out...science can't explain that...but what he should have said is that his audience is too stupid to understand it.

Because the alternative is to admit that their Republican masters are liars and/or buffoons, that's why.
