Global warming is a perfect example of how actual research trumps politics and government “grant” money in politics.

Not yet it isn't. Meteorologists are split into two camps, about 50/50 from what I understand. This is far from over, the grant money and the politics can still trump the reality of the data. It has for over ten years now. The data says no cooling for just over ten years, but 50% of meteorological scientists still believe in AGW.

Btw, I've never said a word about creation science, have I, so why are you implying I did? I was just passing by and made my comment. You do seem unable to comprehend that science is not an end all, and perhaps you should re-think that.

“Btw, I’ve never said a word about creation science, have I, so why are you implying I did?”

You posted to a thread that is replete with “creation science” comments and regular posters. If you are truly unaware of this, then I can understand your indignation. Of course, just because you don’t know about the mud doesn’t mean you won’t get any on you.

No offense intended, and you corrected any misunderstanding that anyone may have had with regards to your disinterest in “creation science”. I assume your slap at me on being unable to comprehend science is not an end all was just because you were pissed about getting “creation science” mud on your shoes. Otherwise, not sure how you jump to that conclusion.

Those are interesting statistics. Where did you hear that? My experience with other meteorologists is that very few really believe in AGW, or global warming of any kind. The only one that I know of that does, was just a TV meteorologist anyway.

The guys at the NWS office I dealt with certainly didn't buy it.
