The way I was taught is you do an experiment and arrive at your conclusion.

The way the Reich-wing does it is arrive at a conclusion and then do you experiment.

As one who has dedicated his life to science, I maintain that science should be respected and not perverted for ideological gains. Too often science oft-quoted by Limbaugh and his ilk is nothing but dogma.

No matter how many of the worlds most respected scientists arrive at a general consensus on any issue, if it DOES NOT acquiesce to the agenda of these horrific Republicans they will trot out a scientist (industry backed, funded by political interests) to "refute" credible claims.

In short, many "scientists" have sold their soul. They have taken the money, prostituted science for financial gain and the Republicans KNOW that MONEY can buy damn near anything you want.

Remember the "science" that spoke out against lead paint? Asbestos? Alar? DDT? Cigarettes?

It's all there in the record..."Scientists" who told us none of the above was dangerous. Scientists bought and paid for by the ruling corporate establishment.

Anyone who turns science into dogma should have their degree revoked and blacklisted from ever looking in the eyepiece of another microscope.
