"Science Left Behind: Feel-Good Fallacies and the Rise of the Anti-Scientific Left" by Alex Berezow (editor of RealClearScience), speaking with his co-author, Kenneth Green, at the AEI think tank - dated 10-10-12
Just happened to tune in. Apparently he's describing trying to prove that "The Left" doesn't like energy of any kind, fracking, GMO's, etc. However, he just stated that he intends to talk about President Obama's involvement or policy regarding science. I wonder how that will stack up with Bush II's record.
The audience appears to consist of scientists, some of whom are challenging whether his ideology is trumping science. Some in audience are interested in discussing the politicization of science. One person's mic was cut off for asking too many questions, but he protested that his question hadn't been answered.
