Here's the "Don't Believe Al Gore" Banner Flown Over Live Earth ---pix--->>>
Edited on Mon Jul-09-07 07:49 PM by Stephanie


I http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=1276490&mesg_id=1276490">posted yesterday about www.demanddebate.com , the phony "organization," really an industry front group, created by one http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Steve_Milloy">Steve Milloy. The "group" flew this banner over Live Earth at Giants Stadium, essentially calling Gore a liar. Yet not one of them (if there are more than one of them) is brave enough to list their name or contact informaion of any kind on their curiously empty website. Why draw the attention of millions to your website if it has no content? And how do these COWARDS expect to have a DEBATE if they won't come out of their hidey holes? I'm sure Gore would be happy to debate them on the issue of global warming, if they'd only reveal their NAMES when they issue such a challenge. Hey, Steve Milloy, what are you AFRAID of? If you're going to challenge Al Gore, why don't you DO IT TO HIS FACE?

So I DEMAND A DEBATE. If you are going to call Al Gore a liar, Mr. Milloy, I DEMAND that you STEP FORWARD PUBLICLY and DEBATE HIM.

DAMN these rightwing nuts are cowardly!

2. I've yet to meet a single RW'er that had the guts to stand up by his/herself
and do what they do. THey're like cockroaches. They stay away from the light and do their dirty work in the dark. From executive privledge to this to the nutcase down the street in your neighborhood. Not a one can stand the light of day.

6. It's almost comical.
I never imagined real-life villains could be more absurd than the ones from comic books and movies, but they ARE.

4. Al Gore's credibility has proven to be unassailable.
BushCo's credibility has proven to be nonexistant.

7. Milloy again. Mr. Junkscience himself.
Scientifically, that dude can't find his ass with both hands.

8. Milloy's views on the theory of evolution
“ Explanations of human evolution are not likely to move beyond the stage of hypothesis or conjecture. There is no scientific way - i.e., no experiment or other means of reliable study - for explaining how humans developed. Without a valid scientific method for proving a hypothesis, no indisputable explanation can exist.

The process of evolution can be scientifically demonstrated in some lower life forms, but this is a far cry from explaining how humans developed.

That said, some sort of evolutionary process seems most likely in my opinion. But there will probably always be enough uncertainty in any explanation of human evolution to give critics plenty of room for doubt.”


I would expect no less from a fine CATO scholar like Milloy :eyes: :

9. They list Mr. Milloy as a former adjunct scholar.
Even that loose association must make the other scholars shudder.

11. So this guy Milloy is willing to whore himself to ANYBODY who'll pay him, apparently.
He's busy expounding that cigarettes don't cause cancer, global warming is a myth, and EVOLUTION is just a THEORY. What next? GRAVITY is a leftist LIE! Visit www.newtonlied.com for the OTHER side of the story!

12. Oh yeah-he is an old hand at this
Also be sure to remember this guy:
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Rick_Berman

There is a whole host of them-these so called "consumer advocates" (at least the last time I saw these two together at some CATO or AEI slimefest that was what they called themselves :eyes:) that was what they were calling themselves. There are quite of few them. They write hit pieces for CATO, AEI, Tech Central Station, the Heritage Foundation and various other right wing/libertarian think tanks.

They are always out there "exposing" those eeevil environmentalists, animal activists, labor activists and so on and pwotecting those poow wittle cowpowations :eyes:.

13. If you look on the other thread, there's one that's just astounding.
Edited on Mon Jul-09-07 10:43 PM by Stephanie
He formed a hedge fund to counter ethical investing groups! So they were essentially in unethical companies, to prove what I have no idea. They not only lost money, they had to dig into their own pockets to pay overhead.

What is it about the word ETHICAL that so pisses you off? How miserable it must be to be him.

17. Geez---you scared me for a minute
Rick Berman is also an executive producer who helped create all the Star Trek spinoffs. :rofl:

Obviously not the same guy!

19. Sigh. Current issue of Scientific American
covers the explosion of evidence concerning evolution being found through genetic research. For a long time the cat species had remained a developmental mystery due to the lack of fossil evidence from them. But genetic research is presenting tremendous insight into the evolution of cats.

Mr Milloy could not be more wrong. Evolutionary research is not stagnant. In fact it is exploding.

20. Check out Milloy's credentials sometime.
He's working with half a deck.

18. Exactly!
This guy is as mean as Cheney, as dishonest as, well Cheney. It's like there's some Republican Central Casting that just keeps pumping out villains.

16. I like the idea someone posted about earlier

21. Here's the link to the previous discussion
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=389&topic_id=1276490

After finding and reading that thread, I realize that Milloy is not only an undereducated idiot, he's a coward. I guess his name is now so recognized and so very much associated with scientific ignorance that he needs to hide.

Hey, Steve! You've been outed -- again.
