…SorryCharlie
REmember during the TeaXas drought a couple years ago when the dinglePerry gathered his fellowTeaXians together to pray for rain??
…and got wildfires as an answer…
TeaXians--------- dumb as a box of Fox and hard of listening.
I think CKrautHummer should sue his parents for his visage…
Either Charles doesn’t understand science, or Charles is intentionally taking advantage of the widespread misunderstanding of science.
Case in point - the best example he can come up with is Einstein’s theories not being widely supported (at first)… forgetting, of course that:
a) that was nearly 100 years ago
b) there was NO scientific consensus on the matter of spacetime before Einstein, because nobody had come up with any evidence to prove any of the existing theories of the time.
c) when Einstein’s proved many of his theories, almost the entire scientific community jumped on board.

As there is no “man made global warming” Krauthammer comments on the “superstition” belief in the sin of man does make a lot of sense.
…but it is so what the KochKoalition funded decades of NeoCon efforts envisioned.
“Ninety-nine percent of physicists were convinced that space and time are fixed, until Einstein working in a patent office wrote a paper in which he showed that they are not,” he said. “I’m not impressed by numbers, I’m not impressed by consensus.”
The consensus is that while gravity is a theory (since we don’t yet understand everything about it) the consensus is that gravity is a fact. We have used our understanding of it to place satellites and people in orbit. We’ve even gone to the Moon using orbital mechanics based on gravity. Would Mr Krauthammer deny gravity’s effects simply based on his rejection of consensus?
Hey, Charlie, I would not suggest that you climb out a 7th story window to do your own test of gravity.
So, Charles, besides saying that the Old Testament is “superstition,” are you also saying that the field of Physics, which began with Newton in the 1600’s, was also superstition up until Einstein’s Theory of Relativity???
I refuse to believe that he’s that stupid. So, the alternative is that he’s lying to his viewers, in order to make lots of money.

What an idiot! What do you mean we can’t predict the weather?! We sure can. Here in DC they predicted a mid-afternoon shower, and we got: a mid-afternoon shower. For today they predicted high in the mid-80’s, and right now it’s in the mid-70’s and climbing.
And I seem to remember the predictions on Hurricane Sandy were spot on.
Bringing Einstein into this is ever more stupid. When Einstein came on the scene, other scientists didn’t believe him until they learned more, and then there developed a consensus and science came to accept it.
So, too, here. When NASA’s Hanson came on the scene, other scientists were skeptical until more studies, and then there developed a consensus and science came to accept it.
What an idiot!
He’s a real stand-up guy.
. “Because in the case of climate, the models are changeable and because climate is so complicated, the idea that we who have trouble forecasting what’s going to happen on Saturday in the climate could pretend to be predicting what could happen in 30, 40 years is absurd.”
Krauthhammer has trouble distinguishing between weather and climate. In fact he denies science as a liberal concoction. He would say “Everybody knows that facts have a liberal bias.”

C’mon, Krauthammer, you chickenshit. Go on a real news show and debate a climate scientist. Your bullshit would soon be spread all over your mouth.

He’s both stupid and a liar.
and data didn’t exist for four years after Einstein’s theory, in order to substantiate his claims.
Too bad Charles will be long gone by the time the climate change sh*t hits the fan.
He’s not so much a chickenshit as he is an ostrich sticking his head in the sand to ignore the facts. Most of his kind are like that.

Krauthammer has it wrong. Einstein too thought the universe was static – thus the cosmological constant of his equation, which he later said was the biggest blunder of his life. Hubble is the one who found the red shift, proving that the galaxies were in motion.
The point Krauthammer misses is that when faced with new evidence, scientists changed their minds. Krauthammer is doing the opposite – faced with strong evidence, he is summarily dismissing it all on the assumption that at some point in the future some discovery will show it is all bunk.

I seen Krauthammer do a raindance one time.
In other words: “Blah, blah, spew, RWNJ talking point, horrible propaganda website, crap, bs, blah, blah.”
The scientific method is to formulate an idea and then test it by experiment. If the data says your ideas was wrong you revise your idea. If you were right you refine that idea and expand on it. Then you get someone else to do the same experiment. If they get the same result…why then you have consensus. And you can begin to trust the data. That’s hpw science works. Charlie Krauthammer being a trained MD should know this. Instead he’s been infected with the Fox News plague. He denies science in general.
I’m 1/16th Cherokee. Rain dances have been successful in generating rain for hundreds of year. Just, doesn’t always rain right away. Plus, lots of people don’t have the six naked virgins required for a successful rain dance.
Hard to find six nowadays.
