Why do people seem to not care about the FACTS???

Question

Seriously, if I look at another question about Al Gore... He's eating endangered zebra's or some stupid shi#$ like that.. I mean, WOW!! Why can't you win with the truth?? Get over it!! The TRUTH is on the opposite side.. How long will it take for you to see????

Ok, I was using him as an example because so many cons post B.S. about him on here.. It's about Reps in general.. They seem to just post nonsense constantly!! Not saying that libs don't do it as well.. But from what I've seen, not nearly as much.. Libs post the same B.S. about one person (bush) where cons do it about every lib out there.. It's insane.. And the lies just get rediculous!!

BTW, this is not about Global Warming.. Though, I think whether or not it exists the preventing it will help humanity reguardless.. This is about all out lies that Reps use to discredit any outspoken liberal that tries to make an issue out of anything.. Straight up lies..

Answer 1

It's been my experience that the people you are referring to are people like Al Gore, LIBERALS, that do not care about facts. They're more worried about feelings. Of course I could be wrong after all isn't it a fact that Gore invented the Internet? Well that's what he said back in 2000.

Hi jamie s,

Relax smoke a joint the world is the world-weather global warming or not & we do have some facts how to change this but not everyone wants to do this, some don't think we even have global warming for that matter, some just don't think of our future generations or about the future. Should we punish those people?
Politics is a whole new ball game so to speak-democrats, republicans, liberals, grassroots & anything else that might come along.
It's what you think as a person that counts, take your own actions, stand up & be counted with the rest of the people. Truth is truth no matter what others have to say. We all at some point vent at times it's a natural thing to do. Have a good day. :0)

Answer 3

Don't know which is your opposite side, but global warming is not accepted, as fact, by many scientists in that field and many of those who do believe the evidence is there, do not believe it is caused by man.
When I consider the vastness of the earth and it's atmosphere compared to the number of people in industrialized countries, it doesn't seem logical that man can cause that much change -good or bad.
I know the climate is changing. My mother passed at 90 and she told of her childhood -preindustrial revolution- and it was clear that the area where she lived was not as cold in winter as it had been. It has continued to change over the past 100 years.
So, it started before we had the pollutants said to be causing it. Still, I am all for clean air and water, so if we get that out of this scam, it's fine with me.

Repubs do not have the market cornered on making up lies. Read up on Hillary, the Clintons are not that good at it, but they have no problem lying about anything or anyone. And, I don't recall any president having more out right lies told about them and rocks thrown at them than Bush has had.
Anyone, regardless of race, creed, religion, or politics, who chase after anything controversial, as well as those who support them, must be prepared to take the heat. no pun intended.

Answer 4

I can't speak for everyone, But Al Gore didn't get alot of support from Tennessee. He was kind of a disgrace.

He still didn't win his state when he was running. He was not liked for being a disgrace.

His lawsuit for recount proved it. ( Realistically, He wanted a recount before the military had their write in ballots in. The Military almost always votes overwhelmingly Republican.)

I don't think he has changed very much and I actually have seen An Inconvenient Truth but I found it (being nice) Dishonest at the least, Outright lies in many cases.

Edit: Maybe you should check your facts. What you might be getting are the lies and just accepting them as truth. Yes Republicans and Democrats lie alot to get into to office. That is what a politician does. Your job as a voter is to sort through the BS and decide for yourself which one believes closely to what you believe.

Answer 5

You do have to take in account the hypocrisy that Al Gore is mired in.

He leases out land behind his home to a strip mining company, then goes out and talks about how deforestation is leading to rising CO2 levels.

He flies all over the world talking about cutting back fuel consumption in a fuel guzzling jet.

I can go on but you can start to see the point why people don't take what he says seriously.

Answer 6

Most people tend to use their emotion rather than reason. What you quoted was more like trolling, though -- why even bother posting about trolls? Conservatives and liberals both tend to use their hearts rather than their brains, with the main difference being that the liberal side of the story is favored by the most of the media...

Answer 7

I know! I mean, Al Gore had better experience than Bush and better facts! I still cant believe Bush was re elected! This isnt like an everyday thing! Its the guys ur putting in charge of your home! And everybody chooses him after he killed all those innocent ppl in Iraq? If Al Gore won, we'd never have had to deal with that, AND we'd be a step closer to ending global warming! Well, at least Leonardo DiCaprio is making this new movie called th 11th hour. It's about all the global warming and nat. disasters ans stuff. He'll probably get a lot of ppl to join in that kind of thing. (he's hottt too!)lol

Answer 8

Al Gore doesn't seem to use facts. I mean, the 'facts' have to be proven to actually be true. He is just saying something and people are taking it as fact.

Answer 9

Al Gore is hot!!!
He makes my nipples explode with delight!

Answer 10

We are thrown off course by the media. They control what we see and therefore what most people base their 'fact' on.
