[[On the issue of the environment, Cruz dismissed climate change as a “pseudoscientific theory.”]]

Would someone with a direct line to Ted please inform Him climate change is real- but what it is NOT is man caused- and please inform him the reason it can’t possibly be caused by man is because only 0.00137% of our atmosphere is made up of CO2 produced by man, and there is NO WAY 0.00137% of our atmosphere can possibly be trapping enough heat, and then back radiated a FRACTION of that heat back to earth to move the thermometer one iota in any direction!

Actually, I think that’s his view- at least, I’ve heard him express it.

Agree on your 2nd point, but believe the jury should still be out on the 1st. Its easy to say climate has been warming over the last several decades, but the published materials often lack sufficient analytical regard to measurement uncertainty. Engineers live and die by uncertainty analysis’, so why is that aspect so often neglected in the scientific research? The observed changes in temperature (very small, fractions of degrees) could easily fall within the measurement uncertainties of the instrument systems used for those measurements, so inconclusive. IMHO.

Actually, Ted Cruz is correct. GISS satellite data indicate no warming is occurring. What the global warming fraud relies upon is tons of computer modeling (which is by its nature completely dependent upon the input assumptions), and ridiculously inaccurate surface station data.

Ted's right.
