Why do liberals take the opinion of the National Academy of Sciences over Rush Limbaugh on climate change?

    Because scientific organizations actually have to prove their hypotheses and Rush Limbaugh can pull stuff out of his behind--and usually does.

    Look, Rush is an entertainer; even conservatives should take what he says with a grain of salt, or better yet, a saltshaker.

    I would take the opinion of a monkey over Rush Limbaugh. The overwhelming majority of climate scientists believe human activities are responsible for the warming of the Earth, Limbaugh is a college dropout drug addict, do the math.

    Because Rush Limbaugh has *conservatism* and several million listeners to back his opinions up; he doesn't need any of that "science" silliness.

    After all, what's science ever done for humanity compared to Rush Limbaugh.... well, beyond invent Oxycontin and Viagra. But I'll bet those pharmacological chemists were Republicans!

    Why is Rush Limbaugh so racist.? Jim Crow is very proud of the 2008 Bigotry Poster Child. Yes the whining ranting and ravings sound childish even when there are feeble attempts to sound profound and authoritative.

    The credibility of a racist is less than zero.

    Well, let's see! Scientists go to school for years to develop their expertise in their specific subject. Rush Limbaugh is just a blowhard who dropped out of college. Call me crazy, but I'll take the word of a scientist over that of Limbaugh any day!

    I prefer to listen to people with an education, brains, and civility rather than a drug addict with a totally over-inflated ego.

    'Patriot not liberal' (above) answered your question for you.

    Liberals (like me) are 'dishonest' because we don't subscribe to his narrow-minded and silly views.

    And don't you often wish people would READ the question before answering?

    Bush = Satan, for example.

    And after reading some of the answers below, I have to congratulate you:

    You got the cave-dwellers from Hannity's America all riled up.

    I don't know. Clearly Rush has more experience with chemicals than they do ;-)

    Those crazy libs. Science? That's just biased towards the facts. Who would want information that's biased? Facts just mess things up.
