Bill Nye “the Science Guy” and Rep. Marsha Blackburn don’t see eye to eye on climate change
Washington Times ^ | 2/16/14 | Tom Howell Jr.

**SNIP**

“What we have to do is look at the information that we get from climate scientists,” she said. “As you said, there is not agreement around the fact of exactly what is causing this.”

Mr. Nye, who recently debated evolution with creationism proponent Ken Ham, said politicians like Ms. Blackburn are exacerbating America’s problems by casting doubt on scientific evidence.

“So what I would encourage everybody to do is back up and let’s agree on the facts. Would you say that the Antarctic has less ice than it used to?” he said, adding later, “You are a leader. We need you to change things, not deny what’s happening.”

You are correct. Nye is a hate filled leftist and there is not a whole lot of “science guy” about him.

I assume that bow tie spins at high RPMs when confronted with GoreBull warming deniers.

He is such a leftist dooooosh.

Not just me Bill, but the SCIENTIFIC FRIKEN DATA says, there is MORE ice you idiot!


Well I certainly won’t be putting my faith in his religion either.

He sounds like an arrogant gasbag that has an opinion on everything.

“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”.

Nye recently held up a picture of Mann’s discredited “hockey stick” graph. This is the type of “evidence” he believes in.

His strangeness and bow tie are mistaken for intelligence, and intelligence is mistaken for honestly and integrity. He’s perfect for the left.

He’s a comedian. Seriously.

Yep.

And he was funnier on Seattle's local "Almost Live" comedy show in the early '90's with the science schtick, than he is now.

The so-called ‘consensus’ of scientists that support the idea man caused global warming apparently haven’t heard the news that the earth has been cooling for the last 18 years. The real problem is that a good Marxist knows that in a pure communist society the crops are always bountiful, the air and water are pristine and it’s 70 degrees year round. Facts, like global cooling and the murder of hundreds of millions by Stalin, Mao, Castro and Ho never happened.

The human caused climate change Zombies don’t want their government meal ticket to be eliminated by real science that does not tailor its findings to attract tax dollars.

Bill Nye is a human caused climate change Zombie because he is a whore for the government dollar.

All she had to ask him was “If all this ice is melting why aren’t Florida beach towns seeing water levels rise? In fact, Mr. Nye, why aren’t you buying land a mile from the beach?”

I don’t understand how someone can get elected to congress or get million dollar talk shoes yet can’t argue with an idiot liberal.

From what I can find on the interwebs, Bill Nye only has a Bachelor’s degree, in Mechanical Engineering. He got it at Cornell, so there you go.

Marsha called it when she said he’s not a Climatologist, just an actor on TV. I LOL’ed.

I’m not worried about global warming.
It’s the rapidly coming ice age that worries me.
