(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."

Thank God the lunatic fringe on FR is a very small minority.

[mojitojoe]

Real sad, desperation has set in.

[cripplecreek]

Counting on voters succumbing to stockholm syndrome is not a winning strategy and its exactly why Romney will lose.

And yes, I’m actively campaigning against him.

"Romney will lose. And yes, I’m actively campaigning against him."

Then you will get Obama, with $8 gasoline, trillions in deficits, a Marxist Supreme court, death panels that will end your life early, and poverty for all but the unions.

Your shtick is getting real old.

David Axelrod and the rest of the o bama team

Other then obama, schumer, wasserman-schultz, pelosi and a few others, axelrod is the top human toilet communist amongst them.

bray, even prayer won’t sway the ideologues on this forum who think they’re doing the right thing by voting for Obama.

What a sickening bunch of looney tunes they’ve become.

I am really sick of this idiotic argument that anyone not voting for Romney is voting for Obama. I vote for whom I vote for, and this year I will vote third party.

I don't understand how anyone who believes in the Conservative movement can vote for this clown. I believe that the Conservative movement will be dealt a near-fatal blow if Romney is the President. I believe Romney will nominate liberal judges, expand entitlements, raise taxes and do just about everything else Obama might do, only with Romney it may be to a lesser extent. So if you want this pandering liar for your leader you vote for him, as for me I will vote my conscience and be true to my values.

Now consider if Obama wins in 2012 he will do so because Romney is such a horrible candidate. Romney is a blue blood pandering fraud with the personality of a fish. If Romney loses in November it will be because he failed to convince enough people he was worth the vote. This will be despite the fact that we were all assured by the GOP E that he was the ONLY one who could beat Obama.

So if you need someone to blame try blaming the morons who voted for this clown, and the party establishment that ensured no other choices survived.

You don’t need to convince me that Romney is a lousy candidate for the GOP. What I need to be convinced of is that there is a scenario where the next President can be someone other than Obama and Romney.

Then you will get Obama, with $8 gasoline, trillions in deficits, a Marxist Supreme court, death panels that will end your life early, and poverty for all but the unions.

That's what happens when you vote for either democrat but some of us actually have the stones to take a stand while you cower.

[chiller]

We haven't heard this in the last year from Romney. I hope he's had a chance to review what's happened since this statement.

I can accept him saying 'humans may have contributed to it. I can accept the concern for pollutants, but please don't go much further.

[boop]

Romney may stink but BO is worse.

BTW, Romney saying the world is getting warmer in JUNE isn't exactly rocket science. The world was getting cooler in the Southern hemisphere at the time, too.

Now that’s funny

If G Bush were running your quote would be relivant, he’s not so its not.
