"Bear in mind that 5.6 percent is nothing unusual. It is precisely the long-term average since the statistic was first compiled in 1948"

You and I know that the definition of these figures have been changed several times during this period and this invalidates a comparison without appropriate corrections. So much for "truth" from the right, which often hinges on the inappropriate substitutions of a mean for a median etc. This is excepting when it comes to such experiments that clearly show the effects of global warming, for example. Here the right is reduced to the sophistry of refusing to accept prevailing scientific evidence just like so many creationists. Which illustrates, that in the alliance of ignorance and partisan rabble-rousing, conservatives have no peer.
