My question stands: Are you ignorant or are you lying?

Safe bet: the latter.

“A better politics is one where we debate without demonizing each other; where we talk issues, and values, and principles, and facts, rather than “gotcha” moments, or trivial gaffes, or fake controversies that have nothing to do with people’s daily lives.”

Then how come I run into people claiming _exactly that_ every time I read the comments on a CBC article even vaguely related to the climate?

Or people claiming _exactly that_ every time Phil Plait posts a climate article?

Or the multiple claims that amount to “it’s a hoax” I found looking at the front page of Watts Up With That?

So, are you ignorant of what people are saying, or are you just lying?

Newsmax: global warming is a sham.

Many of your fellow deniers make the same claim.
Are your lies always this easy to debunk?

Huh? Google “climate change hoax.”

And BTW, if it were true, that would make it a straw man, not a hoax.
