USA Today: "...the big applause line in Obama's speech was his comparison of climate change naysayers to "a meeting of the Flat Earth Society"

USA Today: Storytelling science illuminates climate views
What's the moral of the story? A hero you like seems to shape our understanding of news stories, shows a scientific experiment with climate science news stories.
...
Fans of communication experiments might note that the big applause line in Obama's speech was his comparison of climate change naysayers to "a meeting of the Flat Earth Society," The joke seems to have struck home with Obama's political foes

Anyone who doesn't know by now that Obama is a serial, habitual, congenital liar may take USAToday seriously as well. But it is, in fact, merely the shameless face of the Insane Left, intent only on selling you something -- something that is poisonous to your well-being and that of the American spirit, of honest effort and honest expectations. I stopped looking at USAToday online 3 years ago, after just a few months; that's all it took for me to see it for the worthless, politically biased mass media outlet that it is. It is just not worth my time, trying to separate the few pieces of honest information from the mass of political and politically correct propaganda.

Obama was merely following the tenets of Global Warming Science as set forth so many years ago by the high-priest of Global Warming, the Goreacle himself:

BASIC TENET: “IT IS APPROPRIATE TO HAVE AN OVER-REPRESENTATION OF FACTUAL PRESENTATIONS (LIE ABOUT) HOW DANGEROUS (GLOBAL WARMING) IS.”

TENET: "I THINK THAT THOSE PEOPLE (GLOBAL WARMING SKEPTICS) ARE IN SUCH A TINY, TINY MINORITY NOW WITH THEIR POINT OF VIEW. THEY'RE ALMOST LIKE THE ONES WHO STILL BELIEVE THAT THE MOON LANDING WAS STAGED IN A MOVIE LOT IN ARIZONA AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE THE EARTH IS FLAT. THAT DEMEANS THEM A LITTLE BIT, BUT IT'S NOT THAT FAR OFF.”
