with Bob Gibson
Executive Director of the Sorensen Institute for Political Leadership and former Daily Progress political reporter

    Radio talk show host Neal Boortz must enjoy getting science wrong.

    The Atlanta-based libertarian told his audience this week that an ice storm in Oklahoma is further evidence that global warming is a “hoax.“

    One day’s weather in Oklahoma— in December yet—will surely cause the vast majority of the nation’s scientists to stop practicing their science in learning more and more about global warming and its causes. Perhaps they will join Boortz in enjoying the science he practices—blowing hard enough anti-science to the wind to incite laughter.

    The next time Boortz preaches tax policy, people should recall the handle he has on science.

Really?  Boortz may say some strange things from time to time, but just because he doesn’t believe in global warming doesn’t make him wrong in other areas and you know it (fallacy). 

Plus, there seem to be enough people who think the global warming crowd has overstated their science.  The debate is not closed. 

By attacking Boortz’s credibility and not his arguments you have taken your first step away from being a journalist into becoming a typical blogger.  Well done!
