      O'Reilly can't even be honest without being dishonest. The proper way to frame this would be "Is every reputable climatologist not on an energy company's payroll right on global warming?"

        Wouldn't that be:

        Is every climatologist on an energy company's payroll disreputable?

        Please answer me this, because no conservatroll has been able to: how are you insulting Al Gore by not spacing his name? Why do you find that so devastatingly clever?

          He probably thinks alkaline batteries were named after a Detroit Tigers Outfielder.

            Wow, that's even lamer than I thought. Right-wingers need to stick to wars and pedophilia, because humor is not something they're good at. Oh, and by the way, it's "quickly" and "Frankenstein", dipsh!t.

              I can see why nobody would want to answer a question by you. You appear to be a totally closed minded person. You ask questions that you don't want answered and insult people that answer you.
              I also like the spelling lesson it makes you appear so superior as to be arrogant, someone that sits in a corner at a party (if you can get invited to one). It is very appealing. Did you get your social skills from other posters on this site or were you always this crass? (I would be interested in this answer) (I care about every word you write and can't wait for your enlightenment)

                He doesn't 'seem' superior to you, he IS superior to you. The battle cry of the moron is always to claim that somebody demonstrating even the slightest hint of intellect is an 'elitist' or 'arrogant'. It's actually a lot simpler than that: you're just a moron boulderhippy. You and those like you. It's not anybody's problem but yours if you can't figure out how to spell words as simple as 'quickly' or 'Frankenstein'.

                Nevermind the fact that you never bothering answering questions anyway. Your understanding of climate change models is likely as far off actual reality as it is possible to be. Damn, you can't even spell a word like 'quickly' and you expect anybody to listen to you about how countless climatologists are incorrect in their multi-year analysis of the effect mankind is having on the planet with industry? Maybe people would take your advice on how to pick your ear, or spit, or grunt, or something like that. Certainly nothing more intellectually challenging though.

                Come back when you learn how to spell beyond a second grade level Champ, maybe then people might bother with you.

            You don't space Al Gore's name because he french-kissed his wife. Okay.

                  I think he means that if an insult makes people mad (he's mistaken my confusion for anger somehow), it automatically makes sense.

                That's right. In the absence of actual arguments proudconservative simply insults people. Then he claims that doing so somehow validates other things that he propounds. It's beyond mystifying. Then again though, these are people that champion Sarah Palin 'refudiating' others.

                Moron.

                  One of the worst things about the insults is that they're generally juvenile and lame. Now, James Kilpatrick had a great article on insults.

          Rush Limbaugh, to my recollection, is the one who popularized the ALGORE pronunciation...and we all know how clever Rush Limbaugh is. Therefore, in order to sound as clever as Rush Limbaugh, his mindless, sheep-like listeners emulate him. They repeat everything he says...often verbatum. I think some even have weight problems and take excessive amounts of Oxycontin until they develop hearing loss. But, in the morning, they don't wake up in a fancy, girlie apartment... <sigh>

            Oh, I dunno. Proudcon strikes me as a fella who's not too proud to make a little beer money on the side. Or did you mean their OWN apartment?

        As Jon Stewart said, O'Reilly has become the thin kid at the fat farm.

        But it really has to be said that all the ridicule associated with February's weather has vanished in this miserably hot July. Nearly as hot as last July, which broke records. As will this one.

        Weather, of course, doesn't prove much. Climate over the long term does.

        But I wish we could see some of Sean's February tapes right now.

        Can't we, MMFA?
