To demonstrate the point further there is stuff like this:
The Liberals' War on Science
So quit it with the "right-wing" creationism crap.
The computer models are flawed also in large part because they make the assumption that man-made emissions of CO2 are a major driver of climate change.
Not only are the models flawed from the outset but they have also proven to be wrong even over the short term. If they are wrong now why should we believe that they will be right 50 or 100 years from now? |
Is there anyone else but the Religious Right whom is pushing for creationism as a political movement? I'm sorry you don't like the term right, but as someone on the left, I get called liberal all the time.. You act as if everything is one sided. Most of the people from the right use liberal as if it were a dirty word, so why is that different?
You may not like the political environment of what the GOP has become, but it has been taken over by the fringes. The tea party is way off in right field as is the Religious Right. There are very few moderates left with in the Republican Party, those whom are stay quiet about it so they don't face the brunt of political attacks ad funded by the Tea Party and their Kock brothers backers..
When you say left wing it just doesn't ring the same as the right wing, that is because the left has not gone off the deep end. Sure there are of course radicals on every side of the fence, but on the right they have become the most powerful groups. I'm sorry that lumping them in with you makes you feel bad, but maybe everyone that supports the GOP should look in the mirror and ask do you really want to be associated with the Religious Right and the Tea Party?
