Yesterday morning brought news that the political experts and pundits were robustly wrong again.
The Georgia special election "expert" polls persistently reported that Democrat Jon Ossoff was leading in the polls and would result in a win for the left-liberal complex. This was supposedly a election not about each candidate but about being a negative referendum on Trump and his administration.
The Democrat elites and experts convinced themselves that Americans would show their true feelings about Trump.
Yep, they indeed did that, in spades.
By election eve, the two candidates were polling at a standoff, and now the results are in: the GOP candidate won by 5 points, yet spent some $20 million less than Ossoff.
Wow. Simply another laughable moment for the elite experts.
Seriously, are "experts" almost always wrong, just about everything? Well, yes, that would be a fairly accurate portrayal.
Here are just a few more recent examples from the past few days of headlines, outside of politics, that document the continuing saga of expert-failure.
After years of claiming otherwise, consensus climate experts now confirm that the global warming hiatus actually existed for an extended period, which was a global condition opposite their predictions.
Recent studies confirm why consensus climate expert predictions are almost always wrong: computer climate models relied on can't predict squat.
Research on clean-green battery storage used in electric vehicles finds it is actually a bigger pollutant source than fossil-fueled gasoline vehicle transportation, contrary to science expert claims.
Empirical evidence continues to substantiate that solar projects that politicians and experts so love are vast sinkholes of worthless subsidies and failure for the taxpayers/consumers.
Ooops, the science is never settled - we've long been told by experts that homo sapiens evolved close to 200,000 years ago, but newest fossil evidence finds we are about 100,000 years older than that.
Remember, experts say that to lose weight you have to exercise a lot and 'burn off' calories - WRONG!
Just trust us, parents: Absolutely, the government doctor experts know best for your child - uh-oh, new study finds significant link with mercury in vaccines and autism.
Again, just a few recent headlines covering different fields that are not unusual, in the sense that those "experts" the mainstream media and elected officials rely are often wildly wrong.
Whatever the claim, it pays to be always skeptical and to challenge consensus orthodoxy and opinion.
Note: Since the Trump election, we are on a extended sabbatical from blogging-burnout. Maybe in the future, after a recovery from reading too much MSM doomsday alarmism, this blog will resume regular publishing. 'C3' blog was started the first month of Obama's administration. Since then, over those 8+ years, many more skeptic blogs have been started and prospered with growing audiences. Here is the list of skeptic climate blogs that are read by tens of thousands on a daily basis, including moi.
