Palin Op-Ed in WaPo; obama's politicalization of "science" (examples, claim)

[Kibbiekat]

bottom line - Sarah shouldn't be talking about things she knows nothing about (i.e. SCIENCE)

In that case, we have to go with "male offspring", according to your google search.

But, obama, gore and gibbs should be?

She has more creds than any of those, considering her experience as governor of an arctic state, her experience on the energy commissions.

More deflection, more laser-like focus on another "word" you don't care for? Too bad you don't apply that to any of the issues that appear on this forum everyday.

You don't like the word "man child"?

Too friggin bad and it is completely YOUR problem.

no, it means your messiah is rude and condescending to the leader of our country. Why anyone pays any attention to anything she says, I will never understand. What has she done for you, anyway, that you put her up on a pedestal like you do? you clearly worship the woman. It's kind of creepy.

Also, NAS tends to be a part of the problem concerning data disclosure and the NAS Panel has been caught looking a bit... well... silly a few times in the process.

Thanks for the links. I'm going to go through some of the primary reports that are cited in his commentary. Lots of interesting commentary and discussion there.

Go through the threads on this forum, you will see the links.
Tell me these are not prominent, relevant scientists.

Thats not how science works. You don't sign a petition and magically demonstrate causation or correlation.

Why don't you point out some literature from these prominent relevant scientists so I can examine their work not their signatures.

Plenty of papers and work out there. You could find it if you were really at all interested, which I know you are not, so don't waste people's time.

Its always a "word" that sticks in your craw, isn't it? Nevermind the actual issues, cause we know what happens then;



Now, back to the Palin and her pummeling of the man-child.

Always the violent metaphors.
