27 posts (as of now) in the same thread in the same day. Yesterday was equal if not more.
We fucking get it. You don’t think AGWarming is real. You use all the nitpicking tactics of the creationists. You seem to think that if you can find one example of a mistake or a misspoken statement of a AGW supporter that means the whole thing is a fraud.
We’ve heard this a hundred times from people far wiser than yourself. We aren’t convinced. Neither is the vast, vast majority of the scientific community.
Step away from the computer. Walk the dog. Go for a drive. Take a fucking break.
Of course, this presupposes that this is actually one poster, not an organized effort of many to pollute Global Warming discussions online.
Cheney: Mr. President, we’ve got some bad news. Five Brazilian workers were killed in Iraq yesterday.
Bush: Oh, my God! That’s horrible! Horrible! What an unbelievable tragedy! My God, the humanity! (breaks down sobbing)
Cheney: Mr. President, are you okay?
Bush: I’m fine, I’m fine, it just caught me off guard. Say, how many are in a Brazilian, anyway?
Not quite, he already mentioned that his purpose is to score victories by insisting that one is failing by not answering for the mistakes of others, the kicker is that he is now acknowledging that even if the information he posted was not correct, he said he brought it in just to show that one poster was wrong for generalizing.
Yeah, that makes it a victory. Never mind that to get that “victory” he shoots the overall point he is defending, that makes sense…
Does Brazil84 claim this? It would be preposterous if he did. Most AGW deniers don’t. They acknowledge that the scientific consensus is against them and say things like “argument from authority” or “science doesn’t work by consensus.”
I guess, regardless of what he’s actually asserting, it’s good that he’s not doing drivebys, at least. He’s actually responding to other people’s comments to him.
I think they’ve passed the point where these arguments are still effective. Last time I checked, they were trying out “evidence shmevidence” and “facts are stupid things”.
Damnit Miller fess up. You did NOT write that joke. It’s been around for a while, but that’s no reason to take credit in the absence of another claimant.
Admit you took it from something, or you take the position of the author.
