What's the correct term here? Is that a gaggle of assholes? Or a flock?

It is the LEFT that has politicized science, not the Right. If he has a complaint about politics in science he need to buy a mirror.

Tyson and gang seem to be ignoring satellite temperature readings to advance their global warming agenda. Who is being disingenuous. If NASA is so important why is their input not being used. Faith-based settled Scientology is using the heretic tag on skeptics.

Tyson is a pompous idiot inflated with his own sense of self importance.

“I thought as a nation we were above this”

*Appeal to sophistication
*Appeal to conformity

I thought we were above putting a no-talent camera whore as some sort of spokesperson for “science”, myself.

This guy is the science equivalent of Barack Obama.

A no talent hack with no accomplishments but full of undeserved self assurance? Right on the money.

“I don’t know if our country has any precedent for emergent scientific truths to be debated on political grounds....

Google "Eugenics," Neil.

RE:”I thought as a nation we were above this”

Is he talking about traditional marriage and raising kids?

Sounds like a man whose government stipend is about to run out or is in need of upping.

His job is to shut up and say scientific-y stuff to his hipster fanbase so they can feel smart.

He sold out any integrity he ever had the moment he got his first paycheck for being on TV.

Perhaps it is the same term used to describe a bundle of sticks...

Remember when Sagan said that we should lay off Iraq because if they ignited the Kuwaiti oil fields we’d be plunged into nuclear winter?

Rush nailed it today when he pointed out that all the global climate hoax is based on computer models going out 50 years and not on actual fact.
