Can a con ever be convinced he is wrong?

Question

Cons won't believe the "liberal media", the "activist judges", and mainstream historians and economists. Now it seems they won't trust government sources (census, bureau of economic analyses, whitehouse.org, department of labor, etc) or scientific organizations like NASA, the American Meteorological Society, or the U.S. Geological Survey.

What source will cons accept besides Fox News?

I will not cite THREE examples.

EXAMPLE 1:

In response to proving human activity produces over 150 times more CO2 then all volcanic activity combined according to the U.S. Geological Survey:

"There are lies, damned lies, and statistics." Harry S. Truman, 1948.
I don't believe anything you have written above.
- regrugged = con

EXAMPLE 2:

I cite sources such as NASA, the American Meteorological Association, the National Academy of Science, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the American Geophysical Union, the U.S. Geological Survey, etc, etc. in support of man made global warming. These are scientific organizations that have existed for decades or over a hundred years.

What is the con argument? "They hate America and want capitalism to fail. That's why they are pro-global warming". OR they'll say, "they're just following the global warming money and can't be trusted."

EXAMPLE 3:

In response to me showing data from www.whitehouse.gov proving Keynesian economics is supperior to tax cuts for the rich supply side economics:

"like we believe anything the gov't puts out..... "

Answer 1

You can lead a conservative to logic, but you can't make him think.

Answer 2

OK, you've thrown down the gauntlet, so let me prove that Cons are a lot more sophisticated and shrewd than you give us credit for.

Let's start with economists. The economists advising Ronald Reagan (Galbraith, Samuelson) told him the USSR was economically rock solid, and was growing faster than the U.S. Ha!!! Reagan knew better. Score one for the Cons.

NASA: did you know that NASA is convinced global warming is due to simple increased solar radiation? Other planets such as Mars are warmer too. NASA scientific data has shown most of the changes of temperature are due to changes in the Sun. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto all have global warming right now.

NASA has said that great temperature changes are normal. Just 10,000 years ago, the earth warmed up remarkably in less than 20 years. There were not many people around at that time. Back around 750AD, Greenland was so warm it was colonized, and had crops growing and livestock grazing in meadows.
NASA:
"Rapid changes between ice ages and warm periods (called interglacials) are recorded in the Greenland ice sheet. Occurring over ONE OR TWO DECADES, the warming of the Earth at the end of the last ice age "

THIS GLACIER DIDN'T EXIST 7,000 YEARS ago. And that was after the Ice Age.
"A few thousand years ago, there were no glaciers here at all"..."Back then we would have been standing in the middle of a forest"

How is it going for you, big guy? Still so convinced Cons are just ignoring facts? The truth is, we know far better than Libs which facts are real, and which are concocted statistics, manipulated to direct the gullible and naive American public. I'd rather believe Bill O'Reilly than Hillary Clinton. Most rational people would too.

So, I'll listen to NASA. I'll listen to any credible organization that isn't being bribed or coerced to follow the Liberal directives.

Ask yourself one question: the evidence I have presented is never revealed by the Liberal media, is it? Don't you realize they are just playing all for fools? Do you want to spend you life having scum like George Soros laughing his @ss off at you?

Answer 3

I think a con on Yahoo can be convinced they are wrong just as easily as a liberal/dem can be convinced they are wrong.

Answer 4

don't confuse them with facts
