Climate debate turns nasty
The Hill ^ | 3/14/2015 | Timothy Carna

The debate over climate science has taken a nasty turn.

Vice President Biden painted skeptics of climate change as stupid in a recent interview.

"I Ihink it’s close to mindless,” he said of skeptics on the HBO program “Vice.” “I think it’s like, you know, almost like denying gravity now.” This is a stunning development, that the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, who should know more than anybody else in the world, who’s proposing hundreds of billions of dollars in costs to prevent this climate and temperature increases, doesn’t know whether their projections have been right or wrong,” Sessions said.

Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), probably the most famous climate skeptic in Congress, brought a snowball to the Senate floor recently. While he didn’t throw it at any of his Democratic antagonists, he used the prop to suggest their demands were misplaced.

"Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) at a March meeting was surprised to see that EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy did not know the details of previous climate change models.

That’s because she’s a political hack put there to further the agenda.

You get called “stupid” by Biden, I would take that as a compliment.

GETS nasty?!? It has never been a debate (and hence, it is never "over"), it has always been a political demagoguery (present company not excepted). Ultimately, we need to have Nuremberg-style trials of the global warming hoaxsters, find every last one of them guilty, and chop their heads off on TV.

Well, if anybody in Washington knows what being ‘close to mindless’ looks like, it should be Uncle Joe, but he just may be projecting. The Dems were grateful that Bidens bizarre ‘debating skills’ helped them keep the White House,
but even they don’t as a majority, want to push Biden as our next President. To hear that notion, it is to laugh.

There is REAL money riding on selling climate change to the masses.

Lots of lip stick for this pig they are trying to pass off as truth.

What possible frame of reference does Biden have to work from? Stupid isn’t the best judge of stupid.

JP Morgan promised them millions in kickbacks from carbon credit trading. They are getting impatient.

And the masses will end up freexing in the dark, while the masters continue to fly around on their private jets and live in their beachfront Malibu mansions.

We are soon to see the real danger of PC and the real power we’ve given the Thought Police.

So damned sick of what America is these days.

Definitely. I'd print out that exchange, frame it, and hang it on the wall.

I always thought that whole "the science is settled" argument was idiotic - on the part of the climate scammers.

My response is: Oh, the science is settled eh? Then I guess there's no more to learn, great! That means we can de-fund all that climate research. I mean, if we know what's happening, why, etc. then we're done. Good job, please have your desk cleaned out by next Tuesday and turn the lights out on your way out.

Of course, no one ever said the climate scientists were the brightest bulbs...

“the science is settled” is about an anti science statement as can be made.
