Equating the information as posted on the Accu-weather site John ,with the politically targeting disinformation post and smear campaign as per your quote --{{Extreme positions are divisive, and both sides are guilty of misrepresentation.}} is rediculas at best.

-As a self descibed centrist please provide quotes from the accu-weather information that are "Extreme positions divisive, and are guilty of misrepresentation".
Please -list the EXTREME divisive misrepresentations that are from information provided on the Accu-weather site as you see that exist . The good people at Accu-weather will no doubt find your examples of misrepresentations equally interesting.

Numerous aspects of the original disinformation post targeting the senator were exposed as false -
I do not agree with you John ,-the report you failed to read, apparently , and quoted directly in several segments of interest listed numerous reasons and the need for legislation . Please reread the quotes from the report . You also fail to respond to them or seem cognicent of the report context,its intent,or reason congress funded the report, which is generally for information required for legislative purposes.

Also stated was -""political involvement in science generally bothers me. Lobbyists, from the Sierra Club to the NRA, bother me. Political extremism bothers me ""-

Think I,ll just laugh a little and move on -

The minor aspect of real time access insures that all competing weather agencies have equal opportunity and that no inequities or unethical and or illegal activities occur within the govt,entity . Information is power -that can easily be abused .
The political scenario and imaginary sub plot you assigned as reason for the real time access aspect , labeling it a fear tactic and more extremism is again something to just chuckle a little about and move on .
As to { mildly offensive }points , comments only engage self indemnification ,-yours can be equally misconstrued as personally pointed ,--but are not .But don,t worry it is most likely as someone just descibed -- likely subconscious on your part, parroting, or intellectually viral (i.e., you involuntarily caught it from someone else).

Have fun John ,but again disagree,-I like the ocean seas as opposed to flat water -
