If all scientists are liberals, does that mean all magicians are conservatives?

I see a lot of conservatives who claim the overwhelming population of climate and environmental scientists who believe man-made climate change is real are simply liberals trying to advance a liberal agenda. So does that mean all magicians are conservatives?

Was Dumbledore in the Tea Party? Was Gandalf a fiscal conservative?

    Here's the real amusing part of this..

    The global warming hype.. isn't actually based on science, it's a political agenda with very little actual scientific input involved. We simply have not, and can not, apply the scientific method to something like this. Which is why every time it's been tried.. it's been WRONG ( See the global ice age hype pushed by the EXACT SAME PEOPLE pushing global warming for more details ).

    Not all scientists are liberals. That's just something a lot of conservatives say when the science doesn't agree with them. If science says ice caps are melting, they say it's because of a liberal conspiracy. If science says the earth is 4.7 billion years old, they say it's because of a liberal conspiracy.

    Most people in show business (magicians) are liberals not conservatives.

    Every scientist I know is a Republican, and I work with a bunch.

    College prfoessors are Democrats.

    But then they are usually professional students who could never find a job in the first place.

    You make a good point; of course not all scientists are liberals. I always wonder why it's the conservatives who pretty much admit that most of the smart people are liberals.

    BTW, Dumbledore was most likely a liberal, don't you think? :-)

    Well, all scientists are not liberal. Just the ones who believe in man made climate change.

    You know what political ideology all scientists prescibe to? Oh, you must have travelled the world and polled all of them.

    Assumed premise with no basis in fact = strawman argument = FAIL

    most magicians KNOW that what they do is a trick and not real...

    of course, you always have the crowds that can't tell the difference...

    most of the con leaders know better, but the rank and file go "wow, real magic"

    First thing you are taught in logic is that all of any thing is a false statement.
