Who says Republicans are anti-science

I imagine the senior members of Congress would be quite familiar with the Climate of the planet, having lived though it all since the Jurassic era.
 
Well, I'm pretty full from dinner so that must mean there's no famine in Africa, right?

Chairman of the Senate Environment Committee

That's the really sad not funny part. (Environment & Public Works, but close enough)

Hahahhahahahha. That was so depressingly funny, I can't even be mad at how dumb it was.

I don't know if I even want to bother...

The man brought weather to a climate discussion. All sides should be lambasted for such buffoonery. It's as stupid as pointing to summer (Russia 2010) and screaming warming.

If he had a real argument to present, I'd like to hear that instead.
 
As has been said, ignorance can be educated and crazy can be medicated, but there is no fix for stupid.

Liberals have a known brain defect. It consists of the terror that logical thinking is not the product of intelligence and that only if it is explained well enough, or people are educated enough, they will be capable of it themselves. A world where people are impervious to truth no matter how smart they are or how well educated, scares the shit out of them. My dear friends who are liberal, you live among folk who have at the present time an incurable condition that has nothing to do with stupidity. The inability to acknowledge this fact makes liberals look as stupid as conservatives. It is rooted in the neurological wiring of the brain that has nothing to do with intelligence and everything to do with how intelligence is used, incorrectly, in both cases.

Yes, the liberals are smart, the republicans are all stupid. Your argument is as trite as the snowball senator's and surely will change as many minds (none).

Odd that you should say that. It is, after all, exactly how I predicted liberals would respond, with complete stupid appearing incomprehension. You have a brain defect, like conservatives do, that makes you too frightened to see. Only a complete and total bigot would believe that conservatives are stupid unless, of course, it's the stupid people who have all the money. Did you know that part of the liberal brain defect is their holier than thou elitist attitude. You are the stupidity you see.
 
Wait - what happened to "I'm no scientist,.."?

Oh, right, the elections are over and the GOP is back to being OK with sounding like complete morons.
 
Come all you good Americans, the loyal brave and true.
Let's rap ourselves completely in the old red white and blue.
For Jesus and free enterprise, we must prepare the way.
And anyone who does not heed must be prepared to pay.


Refrain:
Have a nice day, have a nice day.
Don't heed those words of wickedness that might lead you astray.
See hear and speak no evil, just work real hard and pray.
God loves you and he hopes you'll have a nice day.


We can't abide with welfare, or believe in poverty.
Because this nation is the land of opportunity.
If you're lazy weak or stupid, you might not make the grade.
But why should we support you with the money we have made.


Refrain


We believe in conservation, and will do all that we can.
To manage our resources for the benefit of man.
And we believe that judgment day is coming with all haste,
and anything that we don't use will then have gone to waste.


Refrain


We believe in the creation, evolution is a sham.
And for you awful humanists we do not give a dam.
'Cuz we believe in science when the word of god agrees,
And we believe in science that destroys our enemies.


Refrain

Unfortunately, Republicans aren't alone in the anti-science department. It's an attitude that is pervasive regardless of political affiliation. Reality can be whatever you want, if you just believe hard enough.

Vaccines
Climate change
Crop biotechnology (GMOs)
Nuclear energy
...

Careful with the moral equivalence argument. Below is the Republican response to climate change while saying scientists don't agree

You have no idea what I was commenting on, do you?

Here's what I was talking about. Sen. Inhofe's statement that "...it's very, very cold outside. Unseasonable."

It's February and the season is winter. So why is Inhofe amazed or baffled by snow in the D.C. area in winter or why is being cold outside during the winter season "unseasonable"?

That's the stupidity that can't be fixed.

Oh, it can be "fixed". Give me a claw hammer, some battery acid, and a small colony of bullet ants, I'll fix something in that man's broken head.

It's not an equivalence argument. It's a lots of people want to pick and choose what science they want to listen to (ie, listening to science only when it supports some preconceived beliefs). In the case of climate change, its predominantly Republicans rejecting science. In the case of nuclear energy or GMOs, it seems to predominantly be liberal Democrats.
 
Wow, he actually brought in a snowball and tossed it. That was like watching a Will Ferrel character, but in real life. A super egotistical moron that thinks they are extremely intelligent. Funny to watch on SNL, not so much on CSPAN.

When I first read the details online about that stunt, I thought that I might be looking at an Onion article.

Mr. Inhofe desperately needs to spend some time in a modern day middle school classroom seat before spouting off with his level of scientific expertise. He is an embarrassment to that committee.
 
that fucking idiot shouldn't be able to hold down a job at mcdonald's let alone be the "Chairman of the Senate Environment Committee"

Seriously, explain it to me like I'm him, how the fuck, how in the blue fuck does a moron like him get to be the chairman of a committee that he has nothing but contempt for?

Would you support the notion that the CBD is dangerous to the human race?
