Then said "even Galileo....". So, I guess he was equating himself with Galileo - he was thought to be wrong & later found to be correct. See Perry doesn't believe because "the jury is still out" and daily scientists are disavowing this "theory". When asked to name a scientist he trusted, he simply didn't answer the question. Of course he may have been saying that "people" didn't believe Galileo like he (Perry) doesn't believe climate scientists. Then, maybe, sometime in the future (359 years later, like Galileo?) people like him will believe. Either way, he's an idiot.Connie, Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352603326494248659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239469568406697546.post-18558277946415180512011-09-08T14:51:24.660-04:002011-09-08T14:51:24.660-04:00I couldn't watch... just couldn't stomach ...I couldn't watch... just couldn't stomach it. So let me get this straight... Perry thinks it was a good thing that Galileo was "outvoted" for a while? The part that really kills me is that the media somehow sees fit to give these people credibility. Oh, but I forgot, the media is owned by the same corporations who own the crazy people... I mean the Republican candidates.<br /><br />I can't help but think that this is all no accident. I think Lewis Powell finally got what he set out to accomplish, the corporate takeover of the American brain. http://reclaimdemocracy.org/corporate_accountability/powell_memo_lewis.htmlEcoCatLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704811319510740473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239469568406697546.post-14334337973536328212011-09-08T12:09:57.813-04:002011-09-08T12:09:57.813-04:00I think you would have "loved" the discu...I think you would have "loved" the discussion of Parents' Rights. The assumption being that EVERY parent has only the best interests of their children at heart. After all parents aren't drug/alcohol addicts, don't beat their children, don't rape/molest their children, don't feed their children nutritious foods, etc. In their world (Bachman & Santorum in particular) all parents are perfect parents.Connie, Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352603326494248659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239469568406697546.post-38701534775525313992011-09-08T12:06:13.134-04:002011-09-08T12:06:13.134-04:00It's puzzling except for the fact that we just...It's puzzling except for the fact that we just have to consider the sad state of our educational system & realize that keeps people from making an informed choice to vote for the person who will actually work in their best interests. And corporations dump TONS of money into the campaign coffers allowing the candidates to run the best & most commercials.Connie, Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352603326494248659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239469568406697546.post-55467543373512357602011-09-08T11:43:50.138-04:002011-09-08T11:43:50.138-04:00I didn't watch it and am glad I didn't.
