Conservatives Beating Bill Nye the Global Warming Guy, But Obama to the Rescue

Bill Nye “the Science Guy” and CNN are a bit miffed at all those global warming scoffers. They are winning the public debate, beating the “consensus” opinion that global warming — or globaloney — is poised to destroy the planet.

Nye and CNN host Carol Costello both dismissed any climate change skeptics with Costello claiming that “politicization” and a willful disbelief in global warming consensus was helping to ruin that cherished science. Costello also worried that skeptics were “winning.”

In a July 2 appearance on CNN’s Newsroom, host Carol Costello warmed Nye up driving straight for the idea that “the weather” has become “incredibly politicized” and asked Bill Nye to respond to charges that he was just a “kooky guy who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.”

Nye defended himself saying, “I can read graphs” and went on to claim that the left’s beloved consensus was true because, well, that is “just how it is.”

It is interesting to note that neither Costello nor Nye seemed to think that left-wing, global warming supporters were engaging in any “politicizing” of the issue. Curiously, neither mentioned Climategate, the now infamous series of emails released by whistleblowers that proved that global warming supporters were engaging in a monumental political campaign in order to keep the money flowing to their research projects, a campaign that made the lie to the “science” of global warming.

Nye also seemed to be selling the idea that after the upcoming presidential election, Obama would come to the aid of globalonyists in his second term.

Nye is the most embarrassing representation of science that I know. Hs is truly an idiot who might have understood a little of the simple things he started out explaining years ago. Now I seriously doubt that he has any clue about any science. Reading graphs is a meaningless activity when they are propaganda proceeded by dishonest politicized "climate scientists." I would not trust them to tie my shoes.

I frequently cite the global warming issue as an intelligence test. Carol Costello help to support my contention that, generally those who are of lower intelligence are the ones most likely to believe that global warming is real and caused by humanity.

Costello and Nye should go on a travelling road show, like a couple of puppets. They are only entertainers, nothing more. Costello used to be a local news reader here and I never viewed her as anything but a charming face on a TV screen. Bill Nye can read charts . . . how nice, so can my 11-year-old.

"Nye then went on to say that we’d solve global warming the same way we invented the iPhone."

The UN invented the iPhone? :o
