Now it turns out that George Bush has screwed up global warming for us! The Senate says so. So it must be true. The earth is cooling under George Bush.
Just thought I should stir the pot a little bit.
Ever notice how if you put politicians on both sides of a scientific or economic issue, all you can possibly gain from the exercise is disinformation and misinformation — on both sides of the issue?
On the other hand, suppose a politician was asked his opinion on, well, anything, and he responded that he didn’t know anything about it. Would you be able to vote for him in spite of the fact that he confessed his ignorance? Or would you vote for him because he admitted being ignorant? It doesn’t matter what your answer would be; politicians can pretty much always be relied upon to overestimate or overstate their subject matter competence.
No wonder I figure the survival of our Republic is uncertain.
