Ad Hominem is the term used when someone attacks the source of the information rather than the information itself.

I am sorry you don't understand that, but you do it all the time. I guess you are just admitting you can't address any of what has been offered and you simply need it to go away.

How about you address the points they make rather than attempt to make me do your bidding? I can understand why you might not like to have to address the information, because it blows a hole in your side of this disacussion.

We have been over this before and I refuse to derail another thread with this

Now I have given you a link to Sen Inhofe's income and once again INVITE you to search for further information yourself as it is patently obvious you will not believe me

Not try to do science experiments

You DO know you can use it to search scientific literature - you know as in "peer reviewed articles" and "science journals"??

That doesn't help you "understand" what you are reading unfortunetly.

As witnessed by the number of denialists here who seemingly cannot read a research paper - otherwise we would not be seeing such stupid claims as "scientists have not taken water vapour into account" or "It's the fault of the sun" or the latest idiocy

"The climate is changing coz it just, you know, it just DOES"

Don't take my word that is a crock of Shyte - do some googling and while you are at it google the senator behind it - James "Coal mining companies are my best friends" Inhofe

Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me. The amount of dissenting scientists and their publications has nothing to do with what a senators opinions are. Implying The Senate Minority Report is skewed because a Senator said that is absurd.

Denialists. Stupid. Idiocy. [insert derogatory intellectual statement here because I disagree with you].

I have been having a look at this report. It is good for a laugh. They name some of the 700 scientists. I looked in pub med. They do not appear to have authored many papers about climate change. Even more funny is this paragraph

“The temperature has flattened and is actually going down. We are seeing a new shift towards cooler temperatures that will last for probably about three decades.”

Remember that was written two years ago. No sign of cooler temperatures yet. If that is the best the climate change deniers can do then they do not have a good case.

The idiocy is coming from those who don't seem to understand that the Earth has been changing Climate since the begining of time, long before Man was even around.

Now they seem to think it should just remain constant, simply because they want it to.

And then these same idiots try to say others are being idiots for understanding that Climate Change just happens...

What?

There has been a leveling, if not cooling, for several years now...
