And this trow away line at Rush Limbaugh is buried in there:

“The word “denier” lumps legitimate skeptics with wing nuts like Rush Limbaugh.:

Mr. Seigal may have applied his “critical thinking” to Global Warming but it looks like he hasn't gone much beyond that to the usual liberal tropes he's carrying around.

[Lisbon1940]

At best such a skeptic might become libertarian. He will never convert to full-on conservatism.

“The word “denier” lumps legitimate skeptics with wing nuts like Rush Limbaugh."

Mr. Seigal may have applied his “critical thinking” to Global Warming but it looks like he hasn't gone much beyond that to the usual liberal tropes he's carrying around.

Perhaps he is merely demonstrating his knowledge of Mr. Limbaugh's well-known jet aircraft expertise.

But, most of the people who off-handedly dismiss Limbaugh as a wing nut have never listened to his show. Perhaps Mr. Seigal should devote 400 hours of research into finding out what Limbaugh is actually saying.

Your are right about the gratuitous, and wrong, reference to El Rushbo. But, to give the “devil” his due, that allusion could help draw a liberal into giving the article itself a reading. In that sense, it’s sorta a shame it’s not the lead.
