"The world is getting warmer": Romney
Townhall/Reuters ^ | 6/3/2011 | Ros Krasny

Posted on 6/3/2011, 7:30:08 PM by AT7Saluki

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (Reuters) - Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney broke with Republican orthodoxy on Friday by saying he believes that humans are responsible, at least to some extent, for climate change.

"I believe the world is getting warmer, and I believe that humans have contributed to that," he told a crowd of about 200 at a town hall meeting in Manchester, New Hampshire.

"It's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may be significant contributors."

"It's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants..."

Shutting his mouth would be a very good start.

So long, Mitt. Now you & Newt can take that vacation you've been talking about.

Just when I thought I couldn't hate Romney any more, he goes and jumps on the warmer band wagon. If given the choice between Mittens and Obama I'll take Obama. There is no difference in policy and at least with Obama conservatives are united and don't get blamed for the disaster.

It sure didn’t take mitt the twit long to revert to form. Like always, he’ll pander to whatever group he’s in front of and say whatever he thinks they want to hear. Worthless “conservative” poser.

Mitt Romney is running to the left of Obama.
He’s bad news for the Republican Party.
