The nazi bastard coming to NYC.

Seen; sorry if rationality doesn't fit your bill today. Any evidence of those 533 deaths/day?



Uh huh. And David Icke has how many followers? What is the relevance of your comment, if the sampling methodology is flawed?

Please indicate where exactly you find the sampling methodology to be flawed. I see no point in indulging in what ifs; though, at this point, I feel it is incumbent upon me to point out that standard errors and residual errors are also incorporated in the model.
 
To think, if we had banned him we wouldn't get to hear comedy like "there are no homosexuals in Iran".
 
Give Ahmedinijad a chance, sheesh! You don't have to like him, but he has constitutional rights, including freedom of speech.



I would LOVE for Bush to come to Syria... *thinks of evil stuff*:)

:yawn: Already done so. Overreporting bias for political reasons. The bolded comment was amusing, though: standard error and residual variance is not a solution to bias; rather, they will reflect the underlying biased distribution. Your response did seem to suggest an admission that the study was biased, however. ;) Would you care to retract?

Not in Iran. Should not Mr. Ahmedinijad be judged by his own laws, rather than those of the Americans? :shrug:

Well, that's not really true. In Iran, Ahmedinijad does have the right to speak. It's everyone else for whom that's slightly impugned.
 
No, I meant the US. Iran is not a very free state, something which in Syria I enjoy. Down with theocracy!

Though, of course, in Israel you can't talk anything deragotory to Judaism.



But, Iran's government is extreme! What do you expect! Anyhow, Ahmedinijad, as a person, seems pretty cool. I'd chill with him, he makes me laugh during his speeches, and he is crazy!

Do you actually work with statistics? Your responses appear to miss the point completely; when I say that standard errors and residuals are incorporated in the middle, it means exactly that; overreporting? You are accusing without evidence, holding forth on complete ignorance of these methods, that is clearly obvious. How do you suppose they overreported? What did they do different than in the other studies conducted in the Congo and Sudan?

And I'm still waiting for your assumptions on their sampling errors and how (and if) they corrected them. Lets see what you actually know about the statistics used.

In the USA he enjoys the rights of the US Constitution where it explicitly doesn't say otherwise.

Ah! He came to the US to be free. Now I see. Good for him, then.

Too bad Iranians can only enjoy their nation without those protections.

Iranians are more then happy in Iran, regardless of what you may think. I've had relatives visit Tehran (quite a beautiful city), and the people live like any other.

Now, a bad life would be in a place like North Korea!

What Constitutional Rights, he isn't a Citizen of the reunited States, would you have let Hitler come and speak to a American College?

Come to think of it yes you would.
 
Humm, so non-citizens on US soil don't enjoy freedom of speech and other basic rights?
Just asking.

Does it matter? I will admit, I am not a US citizen, does that mean I do not have rights?

Would I? No, but it's not whether I WOULD or not, it's whether I CAN or not
 
My favorite part of his speech.

Asked about widely documented government abuse of women and homosexuals in his country, Ahmadinejad said, "We don't have homosexuals" in Iran. "I don't know who told you we had it," he said.
