Why do liberals hate science?
The left has long claimed that it has something of a monopoly on scientific expertise. For instance, once there were scientific socialists. Social engineer is now rightly seen as a term of scorn and derision, but it was once a label that progressive eggheads eagerly accepted.
Masking opinions in a white smock is a brilliant, albeit infuriating and shabby, rhetorical tactic. As Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.

Science is man’s attempt to discover how God works.
Liberals only exploit things for the purpose of furthering liberalism. They ‘love’ nothing except to see others as miserable as they are.
Thanks for posting. Easily the best thing I’ve read today.
That's a non-sequitur.
Liberals think computer simulations are science.
If they are that clueless, they have no more chance of seeing that they are proven wrong as they have of pointing out a single "prediction" that they have made that has been proven right.
Psychobabble and bluster make great jokes, but to date no science whatsoever.
Liberals have a tough time understanding chromosomes.
Liberals love evolution, until they realize the reproductive failures they now promote are just the kind that would be weeded out by evolution.
Al Gore said we had until 2015 to fix it, or it would be irreparable. Many scientists agreed. Thus we should only be concentrating on moving people out of cities within 100 feet of sea level, or you’re a climate change denier!

My favorite lines...
The New York Times recently reported about A.J. Jacksons travails in a Vermont high school. There were practical issues, Anemona Hartocollis writes. When he had his period, he wondered if he should revert to the girls bathroom, because there was no place to throw away his used tampons.
Now, one can have sympathy for the transgendered I certainly do while simultaneously holding to the scientific fact that boys do not menstruate. This is a fact far more settled than the very best climate science. Perhaps its rude to say so, but facts do not cease to be facts simply because they offend.
In 1990 they said we had 10 years left. They kept making deadlines.
Do you have a citation for Al Gore on that 2015 thing?
"Sometimes I get them menstrual cramps real hard."
Although I didn’t agree with him on politics, I had a great deal of respect for Daniel Patrick Moynihan . He had a working brain.
Liberals love science as long as there are fat corporate and government grants paid out for ‘research’ - i.e., secretarial, administrative, and laboratory workers with their hands out for summer homes, private schools for the kids, and European sports cars.
If not, they could care less.
When you talk to a liberal, speak slowly and do not use big words.
Libs only love science when they are using it an a cudgel, pretending they have cornered the market on ‘science’. And Big Media pretends that everything the Libs say in regards to ‘science’, is the truth.
