Rush's War on Gore and Science Continues
Edited on Tue Jul-11-06 09:51 AM by JABBS

Just as Limbaugh has a right to spew, others have a right to fact-check.

LIMBAUGH (July 7): "I read something the other day that says in the last four years, surface temperatures on average have not gone up. They’ve gone down one-tenth of a degree Celsius. If they’re trending anywhere, they’re trending down the last four years."

JAMES HANSEN, DIRECTOR, NASA (January 24): “The five warmest years over the last century occurred in the last eight years.”

According to Hansen, 2005 was the warmest year in the last century, followed by 1998, 2002, 2003 and 2004. You'll note that 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 are "the last four years."

An earlier attack on Gore was based on "science" Limbaugh cobbled from Rogelio Maduro, the associate editor of a magazine published by the Lyndon LaRouche network.

1. Republican policy of fearmongering
Everywhere you turn these days, republicans are using FEAR to get their message across.. From Hannity using Al qaeda and the fear that we would be fighting them in US cities if not Iraq to know Rush using fear of global warming to scare his dittoheads..

4. Rush should be far more respectful of science...

without it, he evidently can't even manage an erection on his own. Not that there is anything at all wrong with that, but it is sort of akin to living in a glass house whilst throwing stones.
