The ordinary man has figured it out by now. He is pretty smart guy.

These types of attitudes are why global warming supporters are always going to be looked upon with suspicion by conservatives.

Your side loses from the beginning by coming off as elitist "Philosopher Kings"

It's been banned up until now. Which was a pitty because my Dad went off prospecting for Uranium in the 60's, Hey I could have been rich!!

I think our market will be China and India! Remember the Atom is your friend!!!

Whats your Government doing?

so kendo posting a bunch of links is biased, but posting anything that supports the claim that climate change is neither happening nor caused of influenced by human activity isn't biased?

love that.

seems positions and opinions are entrenched by, predominantly, political delineation rather than any understanding, appreciation or desire to address the question at hand. sad that a scientific proposition and investigation is laid to one side by a desire to beat each other with liberal panty-sniffer/right wing headcase sticks.

andy got trolled hard in this thread, mostly with the lefty stick but also by the climate change denial schtick and, in honesty, lost it. but he wasn't the only one throwing insults around. to say that "I thought the left were the moderate ones willing to listen to all points of view" is somewhat insulting really, and forgets the left's long love of simply lining up it's enemies and shooting/decapitating/deporting them. we can be just as savage, brutal and blunt as the right, we're all people after all. but that comment also carries the implication that the right don't have to be reasonable and listen to all points of view, which to be fair is usually borne out by observation.

Liberals are very tolerant and fully support free speech as long as you agree with everything they say . The moment you disagree , you must be a faux news watcher , an ignoramus , a Luddite , a Glenn Beck fan etc . Liberals are all about preventing hate speech for all of those who agree with them . Whoever doesn't agree with them is hated to the extreme .The second they feel cornered it all turns to insults and hatred .I see it all over the Internet each day . Just check out the comments on msn newsvine for a prime example .Andy is not unusual , he's their norm. Most lefties are philosopher kings as was stated earlier and love to force their superior views on all of the under informed Luddites and imbeciles . Bunch of Fraser crane wannabes .

At least Kendo made his point respectfully , no one is denying anyone their viewpoint . The way Andy went about it was in a very condescending tone like he was über intelligent and anyone who dared disagree was a faux news watching moron . He was BEGGING to be belittled .
