This is an excellent video of Keith Olbermann and Dr. Joe Romm talking about some of the most ridiculous myths the GOP, Tea Partiers, and global warming deniers spew without thinking, or without expecting those listening can think.
Some key points:
- “It’s politicians who take money from people to make up crap.. scientists have to have reproduce-able conclusions and results.”
- clean air and clean water (which the EPA protects) is one of the most popular issues among the public.
- anti-science IS anti-jobs
Check it out:
Well said. I have to admit.. I love Joe Romm (Olbermann is great, too).

If you couldn't guess, I spend most of my time on CleanTechnica and Planetsave. I'm the director/editor of both sites and am a little obsessed with them and the topics they cover. I'm also Publishing Services Manager at Important Media, which means that I do everything I can to support other Important Media writers, editors, and directors (as well as the network as a whole) in the good work they are engaged in. You can also find my work on Scientific American, Reuters, Change.org, most of the sites in the Important Media network, & many other places. For more, or to connect, go to: zacharyshahan.com
