Voters put climate change policy in the hands of climate change denier
Los Angeles Times ^ | November 7, 2014 | by David Horsey

People who voted for the GOP in the congressional elections this week may be surprised to learn they chose a militant climate change denier to oversee federal efforts to deal with climate change. The widespread expectation is that, when Republicans take charge of the Senate in January, Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe, a vehement foe of those who believe human exploitation of fossil fuels is contributing to a sharp rise in global temperatures, will be chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee.

No matter what they may have thought they were doing in the voting booths on Nov. 4, what voters did was put Jim Inhofe in charge of the future of the world.

No surprise here, that was my plan all along.

Voters put climate policy in the hands of one who pays attention to science, not pseudo-science.

Cool.

(I think)

What we did, was to foist a huge counterweight, to the massive public agenda in favor of interfering with businesses in order to manipulate the political agenda.

Right?

“Climate Change Denier”. This is the sort of nonsense you get when you hand over the control of the English Language to our Marxist Press.

The Left is in charge of our Dictionary. Sad to say.

And the Left has zero interest in science, particularly when it is in conflict with its Agenda. Had Al Gore chosen Global Cooling instead of Global Warming they might have been doing better - at least for a bit of time, perhaps a century or two. But coin flips are coin flips and the Al Gore Coin Flip turned up HOTTER. That’s life. Sorry about that Al.

militant climate change denier ... a sharp rise in global temperatures
See, he's not just a denier - he's a MILITANT denier.
The reporter also ignores the fact that global temps have NOT risen in the last 20 years.
But who expects facts when you're supporting a fear based COMMUNIST ideology.
I hope Sen. Inhofe rips all these tree-hugging commies new ones, and shames them back under the rocks they crawled out from under.

They might, except for the related matters that only one of the "elections", plural, was relevant to this change, and that the "climate change denier" ran unopposed.

Except for those matters, yes, I am sure that every GOP voter across the country is shocked, shocked at the thought of the what the GOP ascendancy means for the near-term future of our country.

What idiots they have at the LASlimes. The voters knew exactly what they were doing and the majorities that elected the new Congress will back the new head of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, hands down.

We all know that after communism directly failed to be appealing to Americans the left started to used the environment and animals to shove through leftist agendas.

THERE IS NO MAN MADE CLIMATE CHANGE. If there were you would not see the same changes on other planets. These changes come mostly from something called the sun.

HELLO!!!!!!
