CNN criticized on Earth Day for daring to air a climate skeptic

There was a certain melancholy about Earth Day 2017. The decades of failed predictions of doom, those damn frackers giving us cheap gas back, and now the Trump administration cutting regulations. No wonder some of the front men are getting a little testy.

Like Bill Nye, the guy who doesn’t have a science degree. Matthe Balan of Mediaite caught him revealing his inner authoritarian:

TV personality Bill Nye criticized CNN on New Day Saturday for letting a skeptic of man-made climate change participate in a panel discussion.

“I will say, much as I love CNN, you’re doing a disservice by having one climate change skeptic, and not 97 or 98 scientists or engineers concerned about climate change,” Nye contended.

Nye appeared with May Boeve of the green action group 350.org and Princeton University physics professor William Happer, who has downplayed the impact of carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. So despite the two-to-one slant in favor of the environmentalists, the former PBS host wasn’t satisfied.

The message of the American Left has devolved into “shut up!”

Ruh Roh! Somebody better be careful or some 11 year old girl will be suing them for 'allowing' ANYONE to speak against the "settled science". Yesterday in the reno gazette urinal, there was an article that stated someone's(the intrepid urninalist?) concern over the "ALARMING SURGE IN ANTI-SCIENCE TREND" since Trump's election. ALARMING eh? Fidiots.

We’re living in a cojoined parallel universe. Political matter meets antimatter. Things are 179 degrees out of phase. When we hit 180, watch out!

Princeton University physics professor

Bogus Nye and the greentard were forced to confront actual facts by a competent scientist for the first time in their miserable leftist lives, and were totally outclassed. LOL.

Dissidents - "deniers" - must be punished. Their results will be surpressed, they will be sent to forced labor camps, or executed. They are saboteurs and enemies of the people

Sorry, dude. Ain’t “no such thing” as ‘ANTI-SCIENCE’. The desire of God marches on.

Unless...someone would deny such things as ^gravity^, ^quantum chemisty^ and ^quantum physics^.

And if they do, well, try asking Congress to stop the ERF from spinning.

Global warming was an accepted concept 30 years ago with but a few skeptics. The computer models that global warming is based on do not work. Those models are invalid. The fact that the models do not work made skeptics out of many former believers.

Corrupt governments and corrupt “so called scientists” have falsified data. This made even more believers into skeptics.
The computer models can not be defended thus they try to shut up skeptics when we speak. If they could rationally defend their computer models they would gladly meet us in scientific debate. They are not scientists, they are charlatans.

The icecaps may melt completely or we may be on the verge of a new ice age. We really do not know. The icecaps have melted and reformed many times before man even walked on earth. The reason for ice ages and melting is orbital mechanics and variable solar output. Man does not have one damn thing to do with it.

Can’t let those pesky truths and facts get in the way of a political armed robbery.
