(15,682 posts)I get so frustrated with these "discussions". There was no discussion. Just a lot of loud in-your-face interruptions. It makes me want to reach into the television and shake some sense into them.
Btw, you should probably change the B word to something more acceptable for DU. Even when it's about Sippy Cupp, someone is bound to alert. I hate to see your post removed over that.

Way better then the "B" word, which doesn't come within a galaxy of describing her right wing dog excrement talking points.

(7,806 posts)Did she actually say that it isn't happening unless everyone agrees that it's happening?
It's happening, all right. She and the others can just close their eyes and deny reality - but they should NOT argue on TV that it isn't happening.
Here's my story about polling:
You know how people generally say that they have never been polled? Well, I have. Twice. About 20 years ago, I worked in an office building in Arlington, VA, right near Courthouse Station. There was a polling firm nearby and I smoked at the time. So, when the pollsters would hit the streets to poll people, I got questioned a couple times.
I don't remember what the polls were about, but the second time there was a question that did not have an answer that fit my opinion. So the college age young man said "well, let's put your opinion in this category" while he pointed to an answer that said the opposite of what I described. I told him flat out that that was completely wrong, it was misleading, and the results would be skewed. Then I ended the interview and went back inside.
Now, when I see polls that fly against all sorts of sense, it makes me think that the pollsters just put in answers that fit whatever agenda they are trying to promote. That 64% is probably the result of a similar poll.

(144,832 posts)Sippy Cupp is an idiot. She is upset that science guys like Bill Nye are bullies because they use facts http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/se-cupp-bill-nye-climate-change-bullies
So lets just start with, we dont agree on the facts, Nye responded. This third report came out, saying its very serious, you say no. Theres the essence of the problem, S.E."
Cupp then interjected to call scientists bullies.
Isnt it a problem when science guys attempt to bully other people? Cupp asked Nye. Nick here had to say, Im not a denier. He had to get it out: Im not a denier. Because really, the science group has tried to shame anyone who dares question this, and the point Im trying to make is, its not working with the public.
When you are dealing with an idiot like Sippy Cupp, using facts is being mean and makes you a bully
