In terms of the Beck video, I had put it on to show that there is no room for debate with "the elite" and how those series of e-mails from reporter to activist were clearly meant to intimidate and stifle. That is as clear as day and at the very least hopefully you and I can come to an understanding that this "debate" in the public square has been anything but. I find that those on the "far-left" which you don't (thankfully) seem to be aren't interested in honest discussion. You seem to be and that's great.
I am so analytical I actually listened to him on the live leak and considered his point. The problem was his point was not even valid by a skeptics standards. Most skeptics do not dispute that the earth is warming-they dispute the cause. Beck was actually disputing warming since 1998 and if he had read the article he referred to he would have seen the absurdity of his point. He is not a very good journalist. In fact, he is so bad (and Steve, I know you were not promoting him) I am suspicious Headline News has him on to make conservatives look stupid. I could be wrong on this.
