      What feelings do summer heat waves conjure amongst right-wing professional liars?

        Don't worry, wing bats have short memories. Summer was too long ago to remember.

      The lack of science understanding is showing, and it is appalling. Here in southern California, we had 98 degrees on Christmas day one year--and that's not proof of global warming anymore than blizzards are proof of no global warming.

      Does mean-spiritedness simply nullify any innate intelligence and common sense that a person might be born with?

      And Laura Ingraham is an educated person...which makes her case all the more shameful. I wouldn't want Laura Ingraham as a friend, an acqauintance, a cousin, a co-worker...or to even sit next to her on a bus.

        Well, at least some wishes do come true.

          Chances are when she takes off the theatrical mask and goes home at night she probably looks at her paycheck and laughs at all the stupid people (on both sides) that believe her act.

      The stupid idiotic deniers are focused just on 1/2 of this issue.

      It takes warm water off the east coast to create this blizzard.

      W.A.R.M. water.

      What makes water warmer?

      G.L.O.B.A.L. W.A.R.M.I.N.G.

      Case closed.

        The deniers are focusing on the lies they are being told by the paid cynics. Ingraham doesn't believe the snowstorms mean anything - she is playing a part for the money. (This makes her even more repugnant than the people who actually believe this tripe.)

          Denialists are complete wastes of skin.

          They have a brain, but purposely refuse to use it.

          No use to anyone at all, except their puppet masters.

          Their entire religion is based on fantasy.

      Yeah Laura.Your god hates global warming and Obama.Snow just follows him around as a lesson to his irresposibilty on climate change.When is the "rite" going to give up their opinions and cave into scientific fact?The repugs seem to have given up on reason before they lose face.Read a book sometime that actually makes sense,instead of opining against something you know nothing of.Absolutely pitiful.

      Ingraham, who went to law school and clerked for Clarence Thomas, is pretending that she doesn't know the difference between climate and weather. Nice.

      They are asserting that conditions where they are located is indicative of conditions everywhere in the entire world. An obvious fallacy of logic.

      The thesaurus suggests:
      Egotism means placing oneself at the center of one's world with no direct concern for others

      Facts tend to make fools of the right wingnuts.

      FACT: Right now there is no snow on the ground in Buffalo NY. And no snow on the ground in Denver. None.

      In fact the forecast for Buffalo is 40 degrees and rain for Christmas.

      Duh.... stay the course.... duh.

        But with the money they are getting paid, they could say the earth is flat and not blink an eye, and call you a fool for saying otherwise.

        you figure at some point a conscience would intervene and they would say to themselves "who would believe this cr@p I am saying."

      I am so sick of hearing this fallacy of composition. It doesn't matter how many times it's repeated, it's still a fallacy.
