“You’re just trying to create doubt”. This is what passes off as science. He didn’t want to talk physics at all, he wanted people to believe and was all but ready to start an inquisition for anyone who would try to “create doubt”.

It seems Bill needed help, as well:

“Gregory allowed the discussion to proceed despite some terse exchanges, but said he had to step in when Blackburn claimed that scientists lack sufficient evidence to say that carbon dioxide increases in the atmosphere have had a significant environmental impact.

“Well, hold on, I just have to interrupt you,” Gregory said. “I’m sorry, congresswoman, let me just interrupt you, because it’s not — you can pick out particular skeptics, but you can’t really say, can you, that the hundreds of scientists around the world who have looked at this have gotten together and conspired to manipulate data?”

The representative argued that “there is not consensus” that greenhouse gas emissions have had a major effect on global warming.

“But there is consensus,” Gregory responded. “Within the scientific community, there is consensus.”

Heard over the weekend that our esteemed Secretary of State John Kerry is flying around the world warning everyone to get serious about “climate change” and declaring those of us who continue to deny are a bunch of flat-earthers.

Now, imagine where we’d be if that nincompoop had won in 2004. (Okay, we’d probably be a only year or two further down the chute than we find ourselves today.)
