    The best part of whoever posts as jesus is that while trying to teach people lessons about the bible, he is simultaneously being blasphemous.

              LMFAO!! Did you sign up yet? Pretty much anyone with a "PhD" can. No actual PhD, and some assembly, required....


              On his website, Chris Colose [20] reviewed 60 names, including 54 alleged phD's, and found no one with a specialty or publication in climate science. The names included the first 10 in the "A" column and the first two phD's in each subsequent letter (two for "B," two for "C," and so on).

              In May 1998 the Seattle Times wrote:
              “ Several environmental groups questioned dozens of the names: "Perry S. Mason" (the fictitious lawyer?), "Michael J. Fox" (the actor?), "Robert C. Byrd" (the senator?), "John C. Grisham" (the lawyer-author?). And then there's the Spice Girl, a k a. Geraldine Halliwell: The petition listed "Dr. Geri Halliwell" and "Dr. Halliwell."

              Asked about the pop singer, Robinson said he was duped. The returned petition, one of thousands of mailings he sent out, identified her as having a degree in microbiology and living in Boston. "When we're getting thousands of signatures there's no way of filtering out a fake," he said.[21]


              In 2001, Scientific American reported:
              “ Scientific American took a random sample of 30 of the 1,400 signatories claiming to hold a Ph.D. in a climate-related science. Of the 26 we were able to identify in various databases, 11 said they still agreed with the petition —- one was an active climate researcher, two others had relevant expertise, and eight signed based on an informal evaluation. Six said they would not sign the petition today, three did not remember any such petition, one had died, and five did not answer repeated messages. Crudely extrapolating, the petition supporters include a core of about 200 climate researchers – a respectable number, though rather a small fraction of the climatological community.[22] ”

              In a 2005 op-ed in the Hawaii Reporter, Todd Shelly wrote:
              “ In less than 10 minutes of casual scanning, I found duplicate names (Did two Joe R. Eaglemans and two David Tompkins sign the petition, or were some individuals counted twice?), single names without even an initial (Biolchini), corporate names (Graybeal & Sayre, Inc. How does a business sign a petition?), and an apparently phony single name (Redwine, Ph.D.). These examples underscore a major weakness of the list: there is no way to check the authenticity of the names. Names are given, but no identifying information (e.g., institutional affiliation) is provided. Why the lack of transparency?[23]

                  Oh sorry, I forgot how everyone ignored McCain's VP choice of Sarah Palin. Yeah, the liberal media really swept that one under the rug...

                  Simplify things all you want, but in the beginning McCain was actually the media darling because of his "renegade" reputation and there were several articles questioning what was perceived as the kit-gloves given to him by journalists because he let them fly with him and basically nudge and winked at them when making ridiculous hard right statements to appeal to the far right that he clearly did not really believe and was being insincere...

                  He tossed journalists beginning to question this and he basically burned his own bridge...

                    wow is all i can say....amazing logic.

                    Nobody is arguing that they did not get attention...the point is Obama got the most fawned over, no tough questions coverage of any candidate I can think of, not only in this election, but in all recent memory. He got a few nudges, but then for the last 6 months, it was all pro Obama, all the time, in every other outlet but Fox News.

                      That's your perception, But then, most of the anti-Obama talking points were steeped completely in bullshit and paranoid fantasies...

                      But, what "tough questions" should have been asked of Obama?

                        Where do you start with that one? So many real unasked questions about his experiences, his real connections in Chicago off the top of my head. I still am waiting to see exactly what qualifies him to lead the United States. Based on his bumbling so far, that opinion has not changed.

                        I don't give a shit about his priest, or his real estate dealings or his birth certificate.
