[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We know that she has asthma. We know that he smokes. We know that second hand smoke causes asthma in children. Sure, correlation does not always equal causation, but it is infinitely more likely that her asthma was caused by his smoking than by global warming.[/quote] It's not "infinitely more likely". Both pollution and smoking contribute to asthma rates. Neither one contributes "infinitely" more than the other. [/quote] I am a big Obama supporter. However, as a parent, a great message from the President would have been: "My child has asthma. I have learned the hard way that there are negative consequences to smoking. Please don't smoke, if not for yourself, then for your children. Learn from my mistakes". Instead the message was: "All of you polluters have caused asthma in my child. I take no responsibility and everyone else is at fault". I have a hard time respecting this. [/quote]
