Global Warming Skeptics to Recieve Less Air Time on the BBC
Nope, no bias here.
I thought science was to be debated at all times to try and prove your own hypothesis wrong. Then, only then can one be satisfied (perhaps not even then) to have the indisputable evidence to claim to have the facts.
I guess not.

It's not a debate anymore than the Laws of gravity and thermodynamics are a debate. It's about *evidence*.
Fair enough. But if the "evidence" is clear-cut, why fudge the numbers?
Exaggerating rising tides and "Climategate" and all that. Telling people polar bears (probably one of the planets greatest swimmers) are drowning and they are a "threatened" species when their numbers have grown approximately 20-25% since 1974.
Just look at the paranoia surrounding "Global Cooling" of the 70s. TIME magazine cover story 1974. Same fervor, same argument. The same could be said about the Swine Flu hysteria. I just think it's supremely arrogant to think man can affect the Earth's climate.
Whenever there's a "discussion" about it, the skeptics are never (or hardly) given a platform. What about the skeptics evidence? Are they not allowed their say? Or is Al Gore (who is a piss-poor representative and a complete phony and hypocrite)the only one allowed to be heard?
It is about evidence. But apparently only one side gets to present theirs.
By the way, the Earth was flat and the Sun revolved around it were thought to be "facts" at one time as well. How did that turn out?
Climategate is what happens when universities become addicted to federal grants so invent catastrophes like Y2K or global warming to extort a bigger fix. Just like Climategate and ACORN/PIRG/ARA-gate to make us subservient to professulas. If securities rules applied to research grants, half the professulas would be in jail! Professulas, trial lawyers and union organizers are Obama's core constituencies. Universities, libraries, museums and other public beneficiaries extort their patrons to lobby on their behalf with taxpayer resources. They even encourage students to max out their loans and invest the proceeds so the school can up its total. Obama learned when he worked for Don Kent at tuition-funded Arms Race Alternatives, while denying admission to Young Americans for Freedom and the Social Democrats. Ted Markowitz used the Xerox 9700 to make fliers for the 1982 June 12th nuclear freezers, but persecuted students for smaller infractions. They destroyed a supply side hero like Jeff Bell! "UPI June 6, 1992 Sovern took over at Columbia after student protests of 1968 and New York's fiscal problems in the '70s resulted in less financial support for the school, a situation made more dire by recent federal government budget cuts. . . But Columbia will be looking for a new president in a period troubled by criticism for destroying records that were being reviewed for improprieties. Universities in general have been under greater scrutiny for how they charge the government for federally sponsored research." When Obama falls in 2010, we should go through the grant-grubbing Ivy Leagues with a flame thrower! Ivy League universities are not good at getting students jobs, only grants to be commie nutty organizers. If you are liberal, anything you do is inherently ethical for the cause, but if you are a conservative, and believe in GOD, family or business, your very moral fiber, even down to trivial autonomic responses, is subject to persecution as either dangerously criminal or the result of clinical illness. Bush 43 had two Ivy degrees and they treated him as stupid because he was conservative even though he had better grades and entrance scores and took a lot tougher courses than Gore. Professors are the ultimate molestor high priests because they extort and control your transcripts and your grants if you turn them in. Like a cult, they will make your children denounce you and everything you stand for as unworthy. The lowest level university bureaucrats offer the worst affectations. No business ever trusts such left wing graduates who don't believe in capitalism and become crooks because they are taught the only way business makes money is crooked so they seek to avenge their unemployability through their own crookedness. The universities consider real jobs and competition beneath them, so they want their little sissies to live off grants, even in the hard sciences or business. How many of their engineering professors have Professional Engineering certification? Almost none! They love foreign students who slave up and don't expect professors to actually work for the tuition, like Americans do. (Surely You Are Joking Feynman p 215 "If I ask you a question during the lecture, afterwards everybody will be telling me, 'What are you wasting our time for in the class? We're trying to learn something. And you're stopping him by asking a question'." ) No middle class parent should consider sending their kids there, because these schools will destroy your entire family. See Zac Bissonnette's Debt-Free U. Did you read that idot Jonathan Cole on the American University where he brags that undergrads are suckers to be raped as a platform for the the professulas to further rape the taxpayer with their grant grubbing? It is high time to force the professulas to only have corporate support for their research, then we wouldn't be gouged like global warming and nuclear winter.The only schools that understand middle-class values are for-profits.
Exellent (even though rather long) comment(s)!
