"The wind industry, for example, has shed 10,000 jobs since 2009 ..., according to the American Wind Energy Association. Meanwhile, the oil and gas industry has added 75,000 jobs since Obama took office, according to Labor Department statistics"

If the leftys weren’t so self-righteous I would feel bad for them. I am sensing a pattern where they seem to be wrong only on days that end in Y.

Maybe, just maybe if you quoted verifiable information from the source people would not have to ignore you so loudly. Much like rushmc posting opinion pieces from a lobbyist, this site is an opinion blog. One can spend 30 sec on the AWEA site and see this quote was taken out of context. This may come as a shock but..just because its on the Internet doesn't mean its true.

when you don't have a good defense, you attack the credibility of the source, it is the liberal way.

A good cite would include a link showing the specific statistics or information. Remember nerdgirl? That's how she did it.

That way other people can look at the information, make their judgment, and have their own opinions based on source information.

The linked article has a further link to a Reuters article, which provides the quoted passage in the OP.

What part of "One can spend 30 sec on the AWEA site and see this quote was taken out of context." do you not understand. Secondly go to BLS web site (http://www.bls.gov/green/wind_energy/) and you know what you get? A glorious fucking endorsement of wind energy. And hear in lies the problem . Since no links were offered you were led to believe the information in that blog had merit. And not surprisingly, since it fits your world view, you didn't take your own advice and google the information you just regurgitated. Instead you make a snippy post as if that will make the lies you posted true.

When a source has no creditability a good defense is to attack it. Attacking the repeating lies until they are true tactic is also a good defense.

Which source would that be? The think tank or the Reuters article where his quote came from?

Neither of them provides links to the statistics. That was my point.

I suppose adding that additional comment at the end of your post made things more entertaining, but I think the "leftys" have a point this time...

If I cited a blog on one of my research papers in college I'm pretty sure I would've gotten a big fat F.

Maybe they are wrong everyday except Tuesday?

If the discourse on speaker’s corner offends you, I would recommend you stay in college and get a PHD so you won’t have to deal with the real world. If not put your big boy pants on and sack up.

Both. And WTF! You, a conservative values fanboy accept a Reuters article as fact. Shame on you. Like I typed, the reuters "factoid" was taken out of contex t. I would supply a citation but it is established a 'fact' is only a link to a blog around these "education makes you stupid " parts. So here you go.....http://www.skepticalscience.com/argument.php

That would be the Reuters article that had the quote from the same AWEA that you claimed was the relevant authority in your little rant, right?

Quote

So provide the information to provide the context. Maybe something from Reuters retracting the statement in their article?

Reuters is a blog, now? Interesting.

And, a reference to a blog site, to prove your point - guess that make you part of the 'education makes you stupid' crowd.

First, I don't "reply to". Conversation shouldn't be that hard. Secondly, I clearly typed that Reuters misquoted a website. One which I made no comment about other than to say it was misquoted. Apparently it's not my responsibility to provide the information as that is what google is for. If I was to quote a website, I would cite the quote because thats kinda what distinguishes fucktards typing from people quoting regardless if its brenthutch or reutres. Finally, maybe the quotes put you off. I typed " I would supply a citation but it is established a fact is only a link to a blog around these "education makes you stupid " parts. So here you go.....http://www.skepticalscience.com/argument.php ." Replying with "And, a reference to a blog site, to prove your point - guess that make you part of the 'education makes you stupid' crowd." proves you cannot or do not understand the written word. The entire point of that sentence was facts are not useful to some but blogs are. I now know you lack the ability to think critically and kallend really is a dick because he knows your limitations and doesn't humor you.
