Where has he been all my life???????? THIS!!!! This is what we have been waiting for! He schooled that guy, shut his liberal pie hole, and I think even made him pee his suit a little.
Applauding.
He speaks with an authority that shadows even Newt in 2012.
.
Remember when Reagan put his hand over the reporter’s mike during the ‘76 campaign and softly said “I’m talking?”
.
.
I think you mean “Academic” paradigm.
There was never any science involved in Global warming.
.
The interviewer asks Cruz if he is out of step with young voters.
Cruz: The alamartist don’t like to look at the satellite facts and the data.
Warming models show predicted considerable warming, “but that ain’t happening.:
Interviewer: Why don’t we do everything we can to reduce our carbon footprint? Wouldn’t it be good to have some humility about it?
Cruz: Re humility...I read a1970’s Newsweek magazine this morning that predicted global cooling and the only way to prevent this was massive control of our energy sector, our economy and aspect of our lives.Then advocates of global cooling switched to global warming with the exact same solutions. Now topic is climate change and the solution is still government control of the energy sector and every aspect of our lives.
Cruz: When somebody keeps proposing the same solution regardless of the problem, you start to think, maybe they just like government control of the energy sector and every aspect of our lives.
I am the child of two mathematicians and scientist, and if anyone disproves their apocalyptic claims, they don’t engage in the reasoned debate, instead scream you’re a denier and brand you a heretic.
He pointed out people like Gore who are making tons of money and scientist are getting grants on this theory that cannot be backed up.
Cruz: You asked shouldn’t we do everything. We shouldn’t cause hard working American’s electricity bills to go through the roof. It causes real harm and suffering when millions of people have to lose their jobs because the feds want to take over large aspects of our lives, when single moms who want to feed their kids, but see the energy bill skyrocket.
Also, check out the link below the Cruz interview (I transcribed some of above) and see the cute pictures of giant dogs on the laps of the people they love.
Very astute observations, MrB
You haven't been watching The Five lately huh? Maybe two commentators seem to have any respect for Cruz, Hannity and Guilfoyle. Even the Kraut said we have already had an inexperienced two year Senator and how did that work out. Hayes actually said some good things about Cruz but no one else on Special Report did. FOX is in the K Street pocket just like the rest of DC, the owner of FOX wants amnesty and made that know this week.
Ted Cruz is the master.
I will take great pride in casting my vote to help him become the next “real” President of the United States of America.
Ted Cruz is worth my donations, he is worth my vote and he is worthing of becoming our President.
Ted Cruz ~~ 2016
ping
Wow. Just watched and he def IS the master! Not only that but he is gracious and kind.
“gracious and kind”...reminds me of President Reagan.
Remember the wonderful letters that Reagan used to write to citizens of all ages? Cruz has that heart and wisdom—he will write them too.
I believe that there will be wonderful days ahead for our country, but only if we elect the right man. I believe Cruz is that man.
AMEN!
The weenie metrosexual will go back to his favorite Starbucks where his favorite barista -- a/k/a coffee server -- who almost has an advanced degree in "African Woman Studies"), will convince him that he won the fight, and that Cruz is a racist for even challenging the leftist view on climate change.
I’m really waiting for some conservative, like Cruz who could do it, say to the interviewer:
“Jim, are you just naturally stupid or did you have to work hard to get this way? You know, you’re entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts. Let me explain a few facts for you. Number one, take ‘carbon footprint’. Do you realize that you’d be dead, along with everything else on this earth if there wasn’t carbon dioxide here? And do you also realize that carbon dioxide, which is about 400 parts per million right now - that’s zero point zero four percent, four hundreds of one percent - it’s minuscule.
Here’s another fact for you. It has been as high as 4000 parts per million in the past. That’s when there were lush jungles and plants that covered most of the earth. If you bring carbon dioxide down to about 200 parts per million, one half of what we have now, most all plant on earth will die. As you will. We’re really close that edge right now.
Number two, you talk about climate change. Jim, the climate has been changing since there was an atmosphere here. It will always change. I don’t deny that climate changes. There have been several periods in history that have been warmer, much warmer, than it is now. The Roman warm period, often called the Roman climatic optimum, for obvious reasons. The Medieval warm period. And, again, if you look at the facts, humanity thrived during those times. It’s only during the cold periods that humanity has had a hard time continuing. Glaciers miles thick covered most of North America. Do you want us to go back to freezing or do you want us to have a thriving and beneficial warm period again?
Number three, again the facts show that the temperature is not rising as the climate models predicted. In fact, NOT ONE of the global climate models even comes close to what has been measured in reality. Again, you can have your own opinion about most anything, and the climate modellers do, but you have to look at the facts. And the facts show you, and they, are wrong. There has been no significant warming for more than 17 years, almost two decades, and the models didn’t and haven’t predicted any of it, and the global climate modellers cannot explain it. I can explain it. Their models are wrong.
Now don’t interrupt me with your gotcha questions while I’m trying to explain the facts to you and answer the question you asked. I didn’t interrupt you when you were meandering around trying to formulate one of your almost incomprehensible gotcha journalism questions
You can try to catch me with your gotcha questions, but I believe in the facts and the facts just don’t support your views. Now, when you learn to face and recognize objective facts, we’ll talk about them. If you’re going to parrot some political propagandist’s line and try interrupt me with your objections and play gotcha journalism, which you really aren’t doing that well at, then I really think we’re through here.”
Again, where is and when are the conservatives like Cruz going to come out and call these people the propagandists and liars to their faces? It’s not like all the progs/libs aren’t going to like him so they won’t vote for him. They never will anyway, so why not call them out to their face? No beating around the bush, no being PC or polite. Call them liars to their face. Out loud. Say what a large part of the population are actually thinking.
Cruz could do it and beat them to death with the truth. Hope he’ll realize it. Or hope there’s someone who will. What’s gonna happen. They won’t call him back again for another interview? Wah!!! Boo Hoo.
democrats are saying "See that hobgoblin "global warming" it's going to kill you and destroy the Earth. so you have to allow me to fix it or kill that hobgoblin so let me pass these legislation that will protect you. but in fact it will be 3000 pages of government power grab over the economy and our lives. It's pure evil lies. it's all to take away our freedom , destroy capitalism and install socialism
1. democrats create a fake crises like “global warming”
2. democrats posing as reporters in the news media make sure every American knows that the great crisis is a threat a million times from a million media outlets
2. this gets people scared and saying “lets do something about it”
It's all to allow the government to control every aspect of the energy sector , of the economy and of our lives. that is called socialism(government control of the economy and our lives).
the news media and others sometimes scientists do this every second of every day.
there are a million fake crisis: ebola, global warming, crisis in healthcare so lets get obamacare passed, DMAA is killing people (another lie as billions were sold and supposedly they linked a few “deaths” to it) compare to 40,000 Americans dying in car accidents per year, a fake crisis in the internet so get socialist net neutrality passed (it didn't so Obama illegally got the FCC to regulate the Internet with socialism) , mass shooting crisis so get the gov to do gun control etc. all of these are bogus crisis and statistically nonexistent
people will have to realize that we are fighting a hug cult of marxists/socialists. and they have taken over the media the democrat party , academia and practically every institution of power . the goal is socialism and they will say an do anything to achieve it. it's a war that they are waging against us who love individual liberty ,property ownership, freedom and America.we conservatives and . Americans are their enemy. news is not news but cherry picked events for these communists to advance their goal
We are in a war for our freedom , our property , our country. Propaganda is a form of warfare that is all news is. there is no news
That little wienie got his ass handed to him! GO CRUZ!
I love the way Cruz so calmly and articulately demolishes the interviewer!
