Palin Doubles Down on Climate Denial, Denies Being a Denier

The one-woman factory of stupid and unapologetic creationist continues to demonstrate her total cluelessness on science, in the latest post at her Facebook page: Sarah Palin | Facebook.

The response to my op-ed by global warming alarmists has been interesting. Former Vice President Al Gore has called me a “denier” and informs us that climate change is “a principle in physics. It’s like gravity. It exists.”

Perhaps he’s right. Climate change is like gravity – a naturally occurring phenomenon that existed long before, and will exist long after, any governmental attempts to affect it.

She denies being a denier, then denies that humans are causing global warming. The willful ignorance. It burns.

However, he’s wrong in calling me a “denier.” As I noted in my op-ed above and in my original Facebook post on Climategate, I have never denied the existence of climate change. I just don’t think we can primarily blame man’s activities for the earth’s cyclical weather changes.

And that, of course, is a textbook example of climate change denial.

Former Vice President Gore also claimed today that the scientific community has worked on this issue for 20 years, and therefore it is settled science.

Whereas, Sarah Palin spent about ten minutes reading some right wing blogs and became an instant scientific expert.

Well, the Climategate scandal involves the leading experts in this field, and if Climategate is proof of the larger method used over the past 20 years, then Vice President Gore seriously needs to consider that their findings are flawed, falsified, or inconclusive.

And that isn’t just denial — it’s dishonesty. Remember, this comes from a woman who wrote in her book that she “didn’t believe in the theory that human beings — thinking, loving beings — originated from fish that sprouted legs and crawled out of the sea” or from “monkeys who eventually swung down from the trees.”
