If liberals show you data that shows the earth is rising from scientists who use the scientific method, how can you then turn around and state that the liberals are ignoring facts and not practicing critical thinking. If anything, your ignoring facts is ignorant, no the other way around. And if most data shows global warming, what facts do you have that can convince the vast majority of scientists they're wrong. In fact, if you practice critical thinking, what facts do you have that prove everyone else wrong? Where are these peer reviewed studies?

Wrong DAve. Climate science is NOT political other than the deniers who continue to force politics into it. Here is a legitimate climate science site which is not DOGMATIC and is based on peer reviewed papers from climate scientists. If you want to refute manmade global warming, write a scientific paper on why but you better be ready to get shredded by real scientists who have published dozens of peer reviewed papers.

If the global warming scientists were right, why the need to manipulate and lose data?

You have zero evidence to support your insane and incorrect assertions. Dave, not only have you fallen off the sanity cliff, you have suffered a massive swelling of your head which has seriously affected your ability to be rational.

Pure nonsense and I defy any of you deniers to present your laughable ideas to any legitimate scientific body(like the Nationa Academy of Sciences). They would toss you out quicker than a dog with diarrhea.

I've been critical of Republican tactics and messaging this week, so let's give credit where it's due: Moments ago, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell took to the floor and offered an immediate vote on President Obama's fiscal cliff plan, which shocked the Beltway late last week.  (In case you're keeping score at home, this was the surreal proposal that induced McConnell to laugh out loud as it was outlined by Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner).  Harry Reid quickly objected and shut the whole thing down, labeling the suggestion a "stunt."  Think about that.  The President of the United States,...
