Re: NASA Scientist "Irresponsible to Say" G Warmin

His entire quote does contradict your point, since it has nothing to do with your point. Your point is that global warming is a scam, his point was not blame weird weather on global warming without knowing for sure.

I would suspect that is why you did not post the link to the USAToday article, since it doesn't back up what you are ranting about.
I didn't post the link because I was reading the article from a newspaper, not online. He may not have been making the point that GW is a scam, but saying that natural or manmade global warming was the cause of La Nina was irresponsible. I don't see how that contradicts the broader point I'm making. These dishonest scientists, celebrities, media types, et al who promote the unprovable theory of MMGW ARE irresponsible when there is any kind of severe weather situation and then blame it on cars, factories, and the USA. They have a liberal bias that taints their ability to be honest. Either they are willingly ignorant and don't dig below the false template that MMGW is a proven fact or they are so ideological driven they are willing to play the game b/c the ends justify the means. Either way its irresponsible.

"We don't know" means just that. Yet so many talking heads, celebrities, politicians and others talk authoritatively on these subjects and in reality they don't know---dont you think that's irresponsible? And they treat people who disagree with them as though they are morons, hicks or religious zealots---isn't that irresponsible?

You're creating a straw man here.
