Global warming doubts spur push to block science standards (in Commie Core; WV)

Doubt over man's contribution to global warming, particularly through burning coal for power, is fueling a push by West Virginia lawmakers to block new science standards in schools.

In a state defined by a coal industry that is now on life support, the Republican-led House of Delegates voted 73-20 on Friday to delay the new science standards related to Common Core.

Discussion on the measure Thursday focused on concerns, largely by coal proponents, that teaching the standards about global warming would follow a "political agenda" and an "ideology." ...

Yeah, the common pack of lies.

So what’s new, pussycat.

If FR was a dance floor, Satan is a deejay.

My “weird” recommendation: things like this that are not controversial and we all agree they’re lies, we ought to have some kind of thread going (probably most logically in Religion) to pray for the exposure of the lies. That would do a lot more good, I venture, than the usual rounds of superior sounding catcalls. We can act as superior as we want and it doesn’t really achieve anything. Because You Know Who From Hell is generating these lies. Only the Name Above All Names can really have an impact here.

Science standards?

You mean simplified cr*p that wouldn’t even count as a lib arts course in a real middle school, let alone a university!

Nice try, AP. Come on up to some of the courses I’ve taught.

You will last five minutes.

Oh, and global warming is bullshit, pure bull Ibama.

Problem is, I use real math to prove it...no, not journalism third grade arithmatic, but real math.

How about the science that says a mammal’s life begins at fertilization?

The vast majority of peer-reviewed studies, science organizations and climate scientists say global warming stems largely from manmade sources. A major source of carbon emissions is burning coal.

The AP reporter should gotten off their butt and found supporting source for this opinion (now that the 97% talking point sources have been debunked)...and maybe, oh my, if they did their job they might find a growing dissent among scientists against this opinion.
