Quote from bigdavediode:
Gray wrote a scientific paper that quoted Michael Crichton. He doesn't even know how the THC works and he uses information that is 50 years out of date. He even did a video spot for a group owned by... guess who... Exxon Mobil.
So, err... congratulations? You found someone -- anyone -- to reassure you?
Lindzen, meanwhile, was forced to change his views that 20th century warming is real because experiments disproved his theories.
But two people is a great start -- you only need a few thousand more and you'll be on to something.
The leftist playbook.
Global Warming.
Step 1. Make a bunch of baseless and bogus predictions that paint doomsday scenerios due to global warming.
Step 2. Demand extreme government intervention into the lives of everyday citizens in order to prevent the diaster.
Step 3. Hope the climate actually cooperates with you.
Step 4. When the climate does not cooperate, claim that Global Warming is actually going to make the temp colder.
Step 5. Accuse anyone who points out your bogus predictions as working for Exxon Mobile.
Step 6. If your email gets hacked and people want to know why you were trying to "hide the decline", claim that the email was taken completely out of context.
Its too bad nobody told Lindzen about your bogus claim. All we need now is for you call Lindzen a racist, but its more likely you will try the Exxon card.
Step 1. Make completely absurd claim that demonizes your opposition.
Step 2. Present it as if it is fact.
Step 3. If they call bullshit, accuse them of being racist.
Step 4. If the racist claim doesn't work. Blame Bush.
After hearing these idiots run their mouths for so many years I know them better than they know themselves. I have highlighted two of their bullshit argument techniques and watched with amazement as BigDaveDiode, played them all to the T. Look at the argument style from the playbook and look how close it matches BigDave. Its uncanny.
