Ann Coulter: Liberals hate science
Yay! Go Ann Coulter!!!
Quote:
In response to my column last week about hormesis — the theory that some radiation can be beneficial to humans — liberals reacted with their usual open-minded examination of the facts.
According to Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters, MSNBC’s Ed Schultz devoted an entire segment to denouncing me. He called me toxic, accused me of spreading misinformation and said I didn’t care about science.
One thing Schultz did not do, however, was cite a single physicist or scientific study.
I cited three physicists by name as well as four studies supporting hormesis in my column. For the benefit of liberals scared of science, I even cited The New York Times.
It tells you something that the most powerful repudiation of hormesis Schultz could produce was the fact that a series of government agencies have concluded — I quote — that “insufficient human data on hormesis exists.”
Well, in that case, I take it all ba -– wait, no. That contradicts nothing I said in my column.
Liberals should take up their quarrel with the physicists cited by both me and the Times. I’m sure the Harvard physics department will be fascinated to discover that the left’s idea of the scientific method is to cling to their fears while hurling invective at anyone who proposes a novel thesis.
The fact that liberals are so terrified of science that they chronically wet themselves wouldn’t be half as annoying if they didn’t go around boasting about their deep respect for science, especially compared to conservatives.

So, liberals hate science because someone said that someone said that what someone said doesn't have enough supporting evidence.

Now now, margee, don't forget to post a link to Anne's original article
One thing I thought might be important, given the tone of the article, is find some scientific-type folks to get a 2nd opinion from.. and for some reason... they don't quite agree... so here's what they had to say.
It's kind of funny, that some one who's fought against established scientific theory and principle would masquerade around as a champion of science.

The only correct answer here is:
I'm a commie.

It's funny that a die hard right-wing nut who believes Jesus rode around on a dinosaur, the planet is only 2000 years old, and that evolution in a myth makes the claim that liberals hate science.

Science is pretty much the study of how existence is... if god made existence.. how could one hate god and science?
