Sandra asked this question about The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science—and Reality:
It is unscientific to generalize about Republicans or Democrats. Does he mean all of them? If so that simply isn't true. If not why does he make such sweeping statements.

Democrats are not wedded to novelty. They generally push socialism which has failed every time its been tried. Global warming is real. Man's influence on climate is inconsequential and CO 2 is vital to life. It is not a driver on temperature due to its low capacity to absorb infrared. Water vapor is 477 times more effective than CO2. The climate models have failed. The hockey stick is a demonstrated science fraud. Ice cores show that CO2 levels are not related to temperature. Democrats are more wedded to fantasy than to novelty. Obama lectured Coast Guard academy graduates on global warming being the biggest challenge of their life while the coast guard was deploying larger ice breakers for the Great Lakes because the ice has thickened on an average basis for decades. Liberals do have a strong inclination to punish any who disagree.(less)
