>> The wingnuts have gone full anti-science.

There are at least as many areas in which the left has gone full anti-science. Starting with global warming, of course. But the anti-vaccination agenda as well. The refusal to believe in the science of people like Skinner. Liberals believe that nuclear power is dirty.

And unbelievably, "GMOs". WTF is wrong with liberals on this subject? You should try to talk with liberals about it. You'd think Monsanto was a war criminal.

The Left is freaking out about fracking, which has never harmed a damned thing. They had a cow over the dramatic documentary "Gasland" and were sucked in by Gore "Inconvenient Truth," a total pack of lies devoid of meaningful scientific thought.

And of course, the Minimum Wage, which is science denial at its worst. We have absolutely known from economics for centuries that when you increase the price of goods and services you decrease demand. It is an immutable principle in free markets with many buyers and many sellers. Yet, you will sit here and claim that it doesn't cost jobs. This is a simple principle that you cannot accept because of your liberal political bent.

I don't claim one is worse than the other, there is plenty to go around. But neither can you say that one is better than the other with a straight face.
