"The world is getting warmer": Romney
Townhall/Reuters ^ | 6/3/2011 | Ros Krasny

Posted on 06/03/2011 12:30:08 PM PDT by AT7Saluki

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (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."

This schlemiel really doesn’t want the nomination, does he?

I wonder if he has intentions of profiteering on carbon credits?

No it isn’t Mitt. The world isn’t warmer and your campaign is mighty cold.

He has never really been one of us and now he is doing his best to do it.

He must be buying the Beltway version of the type of Republican it will take to win. Because what he is pushing is STOOPID!

And I don’t believe for a minute that he will sign off on an ObamaCare repeal when he won’t apologize for RomneyCare.

Romney must love blowing his own money on hopeless quests because he really signed his political death warrant with the global warming BS.

Mitt Romney broke with Republican orthodoxy ...

They say this as if it's unusual.

Hey, Mitt...the world's temperature seems to inch up every time you open your mouth.

Why don't you and Algore have a romantic getaway together?

You know you want to.

"It's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may be significant contributors."

Gee, Mitt, that's brilliant!

Ooooh, I know....we need more government restrictions and regulations!

Yes! That will fix it!

I don't really need the sarc tag, do I?

What a dunce. We had a RECORD COLD WINTER this year. It began in November and didn’t let up until early March. I cannot vote for someone who apparently lives in a vacuum. Ask me how cold we were this winter. F L O R I D A.

This guy is a complete RINO Hoser. Did he also say the world has a “fever”?

We don’t need yet another Republican confirming the insane beliefs and policies of the far left and Al Gore.

Have no patience for this gutless country clubber crap anymore.

THANK YOU SanJuanBob.. An excellent post.

May I add for everyone's viewing pleasure the following:

I make it a point to watch this at least once a year just to remind myself of certain thoughts
NOT being communicated by the "Global Warming/Climate Change will destroy us all" advocates.

So man made global warming is why is why I still have the heat on in June?

Please don’t let this be like 08 where no one could agree on a candidate for conservatives so McCain snuck onto the ticket by default.
