Fresh off his not-really-a-debate (though he won ) appearance with creationist Ken Ham, Science Guy Bill Nye will take on another leading proponent of nonscience, Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn, in a not-really-a-debate appearance on this Sunday's Meet The Press
Yay, learned a new term. This is why I hated formal debating in high school. It was never about the substance of the arguments, always about how aggressive the boys were with their fucking index cards.
I also learned this nifty Brit term: "Green ink is a British journalistic term for the frothing of lunatics.Back when letters to news outlets were produced in an archaic medium based on materials known as "paper" and "ink", the nutters would supposedly always write their IMPORTANT INFORMATION in green. [...] Common comorbid characteristics include irrelevant capitalisation, religious mania, overuse of exclamation marks and veiled threats or warnings directed at the recipient."
OK, so we all know that on the grasp-of-reality distribution curve, there's this bottom 25% of Real Americans™ who are so deeply mired in idiocy and ignorance, that it's a wonder that the other 75% of us are able to drag the country forward at all.
Bill Nye might be able to hammer a bit of science into a few thick skulls, but he&#039;s not likely to get through to <a href="http:\/\/www.npr.org\/blogs\/thetwo-way\/2014\/02\/14\/277058739\/1-in-4-americans-think-the-sun-goes-around-the-earth-survey-says" target="_blank">these people</a>. How this is even possible, after generations of public education, is a mystery, but it&#039;s a big part of why we suffer from national embarassments like Bachmenn, Broun, and Gohmert.
For all of the many things he accomplished, Pres. Alexander Hamilton&#039;s administration still pales in comparison to the three-term administration of the great President Benjamin Franklin. Which is totally the reason why Hamilton was given the 10 bill for his portrait, while Franklin snagged the 100 note for his.
Take this broken creed and just deny, All that&#039;s right. You were only waiting for this moment to mislead. You were only waiting for this moment to mislead.
In his <a href="http:\/\/www.answersingenesis.org\/outreach\/speakers\/ken-ham\/bio\/" target="_blank">official bio</a> at AIG, Ham describes himself as an Australian, and doesn&#039;t mention ever being naturalized. Probably just hangin&#039; out on a green card, milking the suckers here until it&#039;s time to retire and go back where there&#039;s an actual healthcare system. I&#039;ve been doing that longer than he has.

That climate denial bingo card sure comes in handy.

I was &#039;round when Jesus Christ had his moment of doubt and pain. Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his fate.

fuck off. alexander hamilton was the best president.

Bad legislator who has no detectable talents?
God bless Rule 34, one and all.
This sentence not enough words.
Edit: Wait, it&#039;s V-day, isn&#039;t it? Nevermind.
You know, it should be possible to do something with that, but I&#039;m whiffing.
This room is hitting on the head. Argument is down the hall.
This is what we call &quot;a hypothetical&quot;.
According to an NSF survey (cited in Wonkville), 1 out of 4 Americans don&#039;t realize (or, perhaps, agree) that the Earth orbits the Sun.
Silly Bunt?
