How's that global warming thing coming?

    Congratulations, you've just summed up the entirety of the global warming argument. It's all speculation, at best. Glad to see you've come around.

    Nice attempt at the old bait-and-switch, tony. Do you have an approach that doesn't center around prepubescent tricks, such as the bait-and-switch and "I know you are, but what am I?"

    and may I suggest this book:

    Certainly it's in FenPhen's library, being passed around the leftwing of this community.

    I've got to remember from now on that pointing out liberals' fallacies is now known as the "bait and switch."

    Your true colors always eventually come out, don't they Doc?

    Yes, you're right. However much I may try to believe otherwise, you're always a douchebag on political threads.

    Tony,

    If you'd just stay away from politics, you'd be pretty cool, but you do post like a douche on these threads. These threads tend to bring out the worst in all of us.

    Are you saying that Tony's posts are cleansing?

    After reading through five pages, I can only think this:

    I wish that many of the global warming doubters in this country had applied the same amount of skepticism, or any skepticism at all, to other issues -- say, the Bush Administration's claims of Iraq's weapons capability and its ties to Al Qaeda.

    So, the 95 percent of the scientific community that agrees with Al Gore "has an agenda."

    Hmmm. Hans Blix and Scott Ritter were said to have an agenda, too.

    We believe Al Gore, and the worst that happens is that we have cleaner air, cleaner water, and, just maybe, we don't have to rely on Middle Eastern oil like Lindsey Lohan relies on Jack Daniels.

    We believe the other side of the spectrum and . . . well, we've seen what can happen, haven't we?

    All I've done is debate global warming and the perceived (and hardly proved) causes. Then Doc pulls out the name calling and that makes me the bad guy?

    I was referring to how you act on political threads in general, and my point about the political threads bringing out the worst in all of us includes Doc.
