That's because they believe in an afterlife with 70 virgins and
the Toothfairy, Leprechauns, Demons, Devils, Gargoyles and
Goblins!
Insane, anti-science radical right wing foaming at the mouth
bozos erupt in spastic frenzy's as they claim that science is
not really science, but religion and that "real" science should
eminate from the minds of right wing politicians, unqualified
charlatans, energy industry shills and former tobacco industry
PR men. Most of the deniers are pin heads who don't
understand basic science. They frequently confuse weather with
climate and constantly repeat lies, no matter how many times
they have been debunked with facts refuting them.
Few of the deniers have jobs, they sit around all day at their
computers jibber jabbering with each other on Usenet swapping
the same insane lies.
That's what happens when all you're qualified to do is push
broom like all the other "right wing bloggers who claim to be
climate experts". They were probably a 9/11 conspiracy kooks or
one of those idiots who think that the lunar landings were a
lie, vaccinations are a government experiment, there were WMD's
in Iraq and tobacco has no link to cancer!
Most right wing retards believe that it's a big socialist cabal
under Al Gore. And when you point out that most major
corporations are endeavoring to reduce their GHG emissions or
the insurance industry (who most deniers strongly endorse in US
health care) they start yammering on about how they're in on
the great conspiracy as well.
Then they continue to cite fabrications from dubious, amateur
websites like "c3headlines", anonymous uncredentialed bloggers,
crackpots, right wing think tanks and retired scientists turned
fossil fuel industry shills for their "facts".
Even more hilarious, the majority of the scientists they cite
never worked in the field of climatology in the first place, so
it's like citing the opinion of your dentist for a heart
condition.
Most of these idiots don't even go outside because they're so
mentally unstable.
Most Rightists aren't intelligent enough to be scientists,
making them gullible and easily duped by snake oil salesmen.
Only Six Percent Of Scientists Are Republicans: Pew Poll
A new study by the Pew Research Center finds that the GOP is
alienating scientists to a startling degree.
Only six percent of America's scientists identify themselves as
Republicans; fifty-five percent call themselves Democrats. By
comparison, 23 percent of the overall public considers itself
Republican, while 35 percent say they're Democrats.
The ideological discrepancies were similar. Nine percent of
scientists said they were "conservative" while 52 percent
described themselves as "liberal," and 14 percent "very
liberal." The corresponding figures for the general public were
37, 20 and 5 percent.
Among the general public, moderates and independents ranked
higher than any party or ideology. But among scientists, there
were considerably more Democrats (55%) than independents (32%)
and Republicans (6%) put together. There were also more
liberals (52%) than moderates (35%) and conservatives (9%)
combined.
"These results were not a complete surprise," said Scott
Keeter, Director of Survey Research at Pew, in an interview
with the Huffington Post. He said they can be mostly attributed
to "the difference between Democratic and Republican parties
with respect to issues."
The wide ideological and partisan gap among scientists may have
been exacerbated by the Bush administration, which often
disputed broad scientific consensus on topics such as evolution
and climate change.
Keeter acknowledged this factor, but said that "many of these
disputes probably predate the Bush administration," noting that
scientists have favored liberal views in numerous past studies.
Religion also plays a role. Republicans tend to promote the
centrality of religion more often than Democrats, and while 95
percent of the public said they believe in "God" or "a higher
power," only 51 percent of scientists claimed either.
"Many Republicans, especially the Evangelical wing of the
party, are skeptical of evolution, and have argued for the
teaching of creationism and intelligent design in school," said
Keeter.
The results could merely be a reflection of how scientists see
the world, rather than of partisan loyalties. In a series of
questions posed, the study found that the answers of scientists
were consistently more in line with liberal viewpoints than
those of the general public.
"The Republican Party has a number of leaders within it who
have challenged the accuracy of scientific findings on issues
such as climate change, evolution and stem cell research,"
Keeter told the Huffington Post.
"It suggests that scientists who are Republicans might feel
some dissonance from the party's position on some things that
are important to them. And while there are Republicans in the
scientist sample, there are really not that many," he said.
That's what happens when all you're qualified to do is push
broom like all the other "right wing bloggers who claim to be
climate experts". They were probably a 9/11 conspiracy kook and
one of those idiots who think that the lunar landings were a
lie, vaccinations are a government experiment, there were WMD's
in Iraq and tobacco has no link to cancer!
We have 36 national science academies, every scientific
organization, over 90% of articles in scientific journals, and
97% of climate science researchers. You have bloggers,
right-wing columnists, and your own paranoia.
