Mole's Progressive Democrat

The Progressive Democrat Newsletter grew out of the frustration of the 2004 election. Originally intended for New York City progressives, its readership is now national. For anyone who wants to be alerted by email whenever this newsletter is updated (usually weekly), please send your email address and let me know what state you live in (so I can keep track of my readership).

    Taking George Will to Task

    I covered this before, but here is a segment from the Rachel Maddow show discussing George Will's deliberate distortion of the truth on global warming: (hat tip to Media Matters)



    Now I expect fools like Rush Limbaugh to lie. Rush has routinely used false information to support his ideological fantasies even when scientists correct him. But I expected better of George Will who, unlike Rush, does have a brain. In Rush's case he probably is unable to understand science in any meaningful way. But George Will can and yet he still deliberately distorts science even when those very scientists he refers to try to correct him. THAT is worse than Rush's drug induced ravings.
