The Anti-Science President #EERS

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  March 16th, 2012 at 06:07 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

The President says Republicans are members of the Flat Earth Society for wanting to drill.

The President, himself, seems to be anti-science based on his energy policies.

I’ll get into it tonight.

You can listen right here and call in at 1-800-WSB-TALK.

Consider this an open thread.

    person because he is either ignorant or negates the effects of petroleum chemical engineering and its contributions to the advancement of mankind. Since the mid-1800s, the improvements to mankind regarding food, shelter, transportation, communication, philanthropy, warfare, exploration, education and clothing were affected by petroleum technology. There is no other energy source that can replace or substitute petroleum and its byproducts. What other energy source can transport all of Obama’s support vehicles on those two C-17s to all his campaign stops? That is the true test.

    in general a leftist will advocate policies which will weaken America because leftists hate America.

    Obama who said that ATMs and cash machines replaced tellers and cost us jobs?

    Sounds like a Flat Earther to me!

    …were forced to admit that Obama got his history wrong.

    But beyond that, Obama seems to have the entire notion of social acceptance of new technology backwards.

    A new invention or technology is the new kid on the block and has to prove itself. (Neither solar nor wind are all that new, but I’ll let that pass.) A new invention can’t succeed by attempting to shame users of existing technology.

    The first inventors of the first automobiles didn’t succeed by telling owners of horse-drawn vehicles “You’re just like flat-earthers.”

    Edison didn’t insult users of illuminating gas by comparing them to flat-earthers either.

    But a certain segment of the Left constantly tries to shame people into going along with them: “If you don’t agree with me, you’re a racist” or somesuch.

    And you know immediately that such people never worked in the private sector where they would have to actually *ask* people to give their product or service a try, rather than bullying them into doing it, or shaming them into doing it.

    Seeing as SMOD is a certainty at this point, and it will soon be the end of the world as we know it, Politico decided they would come clean and tell the truth for a change. No atheists in foxholes as it were.

    The article Health Care Reform: Four Inconvenient Truths, is exactly what it purports to be – four glaring things gotten wrong by the administration when it comes to Obamacare. The 4 truths they focus on are :

    1)Some people won’t get to keep the coverage they like
    2)Costs are not going to go do
    3)Its just a guess the law can pay for itself
    4)”The more they know the more they’ll like it” isn’t happening

    The author took the time to highlight things like the number of people expected to lose their employer-based care. How much costs are rising, and the fact most don’t don’t like it. It does not paint the plan or its creators in a good light.

    Something is wrong here. I’m use to them putting up no-source stories. Smearing candidates based on inuendo. Twisting statistics. Being a mouthpiece for WH. Stuff like that. But this story shines as a potential ad this political season. Something is wrong at that website. It must be the coming doom of SMOD.
