      Now that it's fixed, instead of being obnoxious, post something to which somebody should respond.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        One of the hallmarks of a crank is that they never listen to criticism. Shunya... your former link wasn't working, it skipped the video because the link contained a 'time_continue=1292' field, which meant it skipped the video to the end. What happens next depends on each user, some were taken to other videos, some were taken to part 2 of this video. I could see what was going wrong so I fixed it.

        But you pretty much denied there was a problem the entire way.

        Secondly, you haven't stated anything to respond to. You just posted a link. That's called 'argument by weblink' and its considered extremely bad form on websites.

          It seems to be a 23 minute video. I am not going to watch a 23 minute video with no idea what Shunya's point even is about it. He should at least summarize it and then state a position about it.

            In summary it is a description of the long standing support for the science of global warming by conservatives, and includes a number references to the conservative objections to the consequences of the proposed solutions to global warming.

              It's been hotter in the summer than it was in the city, that's for dang sure.

                  The motivation of many conservatives today is the objections to the consequences of Global Warming, and historically conservatives supported the reality of Global Warming.

                    That doesn't even make sense.

                      The reality is that opposition to the reality of Global Warming is a scapegoat.

                        Are you drunkposting, Shuny?

                          I for one have never seen him respond to constructive criticism of his posts with anything other than an emoji, or one of his catch phrases. Usually something like "air ball!" or "splitting frog hairs".

                            Even if that were a comprehensible statement with a teeny degree of truth, so what?

                            Democrats used to be "the God and Country" party, both of which they now eschew.

                              Some probably did and some didn't. Just like now. Global Warming isn't a solely conservative issue. There are many liberals who deny it too.

                              And there is also another divide. Some accept global warming but deny MAN is the biggest cause.

                                Many Liberals is too vague, and I doubt your generalization, and it needs references. You could easily say 'Many housewives reject Global Warming,' and it would have no substantive reasoning. Like the science of evolution there are not 'many scientists' that reject Global Warming.

                                Scientists worldwide agree that global warming is happening, and that human activity causes it.

                                The IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), written by a panel of hundreds of climate experts and scientists from member countries of the World Meteorological Organization the United Nations Environmental Programme, plus a team of external reviewers, states unambiguously:

                                Human influence on the climate system is clear, and recent anthropogenic emissions of green-house gases are the highest in history. […] Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, and since the 1950s, many of the observed changes are unprecedented over decades to millennia.

                                There are a number of polls cited in this article and all reflect 97% or more scientists support Global Warming.
