Good example of the way the Left has completely abandoned Science as a method for finding ways to improve society.

I feel no need to really trash Bauce. He clearly lives in a world that I can't even begin to debate, where 'facts' and 'science' can be 'dismissed' by the scientifically proven 'practice' of putting them in 'air quotes.' Although I do wonder why he writes

The “communications” tower currently being debated in these pages has no place in a community that values the health and well-being of its citizens.

I didn't know that the fact the tower is used as a radio relay station was in doubt.

The departure from Science is similar to Bush's soundness on foreign policy and complete disengenuity on the budget. When the facts are behind you, it's easy to promote a plan. When they aren't, it calls for a combination of rhetorical exercises, questioning the questioner, and other tricks that avoid disinterested analysis.
