They are deniers because they are skeptics first and foremost, based
solely on their political prejudice. Denial to them is much more
important than examining the actual data - in fact they deny without
even looking at the data. So they have given up any claim to be treated
as intelligent or credible. They get whatever comes their way.

And still you produce not one shred of scientific evidence to support
your case. This is just ridiculous.

Do you seriously expect any of these wingnuts to read what you posted?
