[Senator_Blutarski]

My (hippie retired middle school art teacher) neighbor is a passionate believer in AGW. He is unable to discuss or debate the facts. He struggles with 8th grade science concepts (like the laws of gases) and has zero math skills. When I talk about AGW in scientific terms his eyes glass over. Then he becomes very angry and tells me the science is settled and I have no idea what I'm talking about.

It is the passion and emotional investment that betrays their dishonesty. They don't want to debate and don't want to hear opposing views. Their ideology tells them AGW should be true, therefore the matter is settled.

Like medicine (Obamacare), politics should not influence science.

LOL! The pro agw crowd never wants to hear the facts because “the science is settled”. Kind of like a 3 day old buritto settling in your gut. Ends up a load of crap.
