Obama attacks Republicans for appeasing climate deniers
Guardian UK ^ | June 25, 2014 | By Suzanne Goldenberg

Posted on 06/25/2014 9:54:45 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Barack Obama has turned up the political heat on climate deniers, making fun of Republicans in Congress for catering to “a bunch of fringe elements”.

In a speech to environmental activists in Washington, Obama suggested Republicans were playing dumb on climate change to avoid a backlash from ultra-conservative Tea Party elements.

Republicans actually recognised climate change was real, Obama suggested, but were afraid to admit it in public.

“They ducked the question and said 'Hey I'm not a scientist,' which really translates into 'I accept that manmade climate change is real but if I say so I will be run out of town by a bunch of fringe elements,'” Obama said.

“So I am just going to pretend like – I don't know – I can't read.”

Global Warming
Climate Change
Whatever the term is this week, they always leave off the most important word and they need to be called on it.

Global Warming Theory
Climate Change Theory

It is an unproven theory nothing more nothing less.

What an idiot. Congress should pass a law making this doofus wear a hat with a little propeller on top. Then when Putin or the president of China next comes, they can get him in a headlock and just beat him a little. I’d clap approvingly.

Zer0 is walking down that Santa Monica Pier again in hopes of catching a ride on the Mother Ship. His Hope and Change will never get squat and he knows it. Why is he walking the pier? Because he a con artist trying to talk us out of our money.

Yes, that well known scientific genius Obama is upset that many people don’t toe the line about all that global warming that hasn’t been happening. (smirk)

He hasn't got a clue as to what's going on in his own Administration, yet he's a certified expert on globul-warming, climate change or whatever it's being called today.

And, he's so credible, we should believe every word coming out of his marxist pie-hole.
