"What has science ever done for you?" . . . Please come CAPTION Jeb Bush!!!

Jeb ("'Science' is just a one-syllable word like 'bull' and 'crap.'"

Bush is saying: "And that's why I say it is the height of human arrogance for scientists to say that climate change is real and significant enough to effect human life on this planet. . . . Where do scientists get such arrogance and confidence in their so-called knowledge? . . . It's outrageous. . . . Can you think of any other reputable group who seem so sure of themselves? . . . . Ever? . . . You'd think they had a track record of being right or something! . . . Geez."

******************************************************************

Above CAPTION based on the following Huffington Post story:

1. A lot of people say the Patriots won the last Super Bowl. I don't think the science is clear

on what percentage of the Superbowl was won by the Seahawks and what percentage was won by the Patriots. The information on the game is convoluted. For the people to say look at the scoreboard the game was decided already is really arrogant, to be honest with you. It's this intellectual arrogance that now you can't have a conversation about it, even.

3. Climate change is as real as relativity and quantum physics.

But this flaming, ignorant shitheel probably doesn't believe in them either. Facts are stubborn things.

I'm even dumber than my brother, and vow to work to screw things up even worse than he did.

5. "Listen,

remember those science geeks in high school? And then those thugs and wanta be ganstas? . . . Then those bleeding hearts college preparatory types. . . And then there was our type: clean, upstanding, conservatives who dressed well but never overdid it? . . . Well we all know what type is the best, but sometimes I ask myself which is the worst type? . . . And I'm always stuck between the thugs and he science geeks. . . . So much for science!"
