    But remember Chris, we learned in a recent thread that if someone posts data, numbers, etc in a post, it's on the person that disagrees with them to prove it.

    Also, was anyone else guessing "Heartland"?

    Does your butt hurt much? I posted a pie chart which by the way was more information than you deigned to post, which backed up my statement

    I'm pretty sure you posted a pit chart containing data from the CDC, which I had already posted in that thread. Your claim was "99% from Retarded decisions" which that pie chart didn't prove.

  • No, it hasn't. Comedy stays funny. It adapts, but is quite the same.

    I think it was plato or aristotle, that said there are three elements

    of comedy -

    surprise, exaggeration, and irony. I'm only certain of the first two...

    Thought you had to go. Don't tell me, you don't know how to google

    "elements of comedy".......

    No I'm pretty sure your taste just stays the same.

  • All wet in Egypt, still.

    Gee, you have to go? Gosh, what great timing to refuse

    to go look it up. I gave you plenty of help.

    the trouble is, with citations, is that some of those who

    get to give them, are the ones who have been manipulating

    and cherry picking the data,

    for al gore. You ...can....not....have....the "fever" bs...

    with these numbers. Climate changes, flows and ebbs.

    Hey, you "global warming" wonks lost it, and the proof

    is when you changed the talking point to "climate change".

    Yes Chris, not looking up Cals source for him proves you're wrong.

    Also, "citations" are just a ploy by "scientists" to censor the truth! Cuz Al Gore! And grants! And liberals!

  • Butthurt

  • .... And Cal just admitted he was wrong, sweet. As if the "nuh uh, you find my source" wasn't telling enough, now even he has given up on supporting his argument. Leave it to Cal to post completely pointless posts with no bearing on the OP topic he can't support...

  • The point isn't about the data being presented, it's about the fact that it's just put there with no source whatsoever.

    The bigger point, though, is that this only represents the US. It's global warming, and global temperatures are steadily rising.

    Well of course, but the rest of the world isn't as vulnerable to the guilt trip as the US and is less likely to pony up a pile of cash...

    We're also have some of the lowest math and science scores on standardized tests..

    Yes we do Woody.

    But, (and I saw this chart on the McLaughlin Group even though I can't find it on the web to post for you so you can believe it or not), if you take African Americans and Hispanics out of the bell curve the United States of America ranks in the top 2 in the world. So there's that.

    you are free to believe that or not.

    I'd like to see that. I'm sure it comes more down to removing our poorest citizens with less access to a good education, not so much their race.

    Point is, general public opinion shouldn't outweigh the scientific community. But in our govt, it does.

    He doesn't get it. I'm even seeing him post links that he has before, and they've been debunked, but he still doesn't get it.

    That's the kind of person I'd want blindly supporting my group...

    I've seen the statistics that Steve's talking about before, but I suspect that yes, it's about removing the uneducated lower classes, the demography of which is skewed to minorities.

  • They be lazy.

  • p s that was actually number 1 in 3 of the 4 categories and number 2 in the remaining 1.

    I don't doubt it at all.

    Well sure. Also keep in mind that the Hispanics are speaking English as a second language so there is a definite problem for them. Not to mention the fact that most come from Mexico with very little education to begin with. The inner cities are a given for poor educational standards. But it is what it is and helps to explain the skewed numbers saying the United States sucks.

    Well, I'm also in the boat that says that graph I posted also explains why we seem to be behind other countries in some scientific issues.

    Second language, poor students with little to no access to good education... But also home school kids who's parents have no idea what they're doing (obviously much smaller number), kids from the suburbs that are just lazy, etc.

    Any, getting off topic. Point is that America's general population's opinion on a scientific matter should not outweigh the actual scientific community

  • I say it has nothing to do with access to better education. It has to do with a certain demographic of people eschewing education completely.

    Teachers at JFK get the same degrees and take the same courses and need to get the same grades as those in Strongsville Norton Manchester Bay Village where the fuck ever. And yes we are getting way off topic. Maybe we will start another thread about that stuff.

  • Yes, libs always change the subject when you disagree with their nonsense.
