Billionaire environmentalist Tom Steyer is playing a big role in a liberal conference this week, signifying that a wealthy group of donors from the left plans to make climate change a factor in the 2016 presidential election.

According to Politico, Steyer is scheduled to host three sessions dealing with climate change during the spring gathering of the Democracy Alliance in San Francisco. The conference began Sunday and will conclude Wednesday.

Politico reports the group will urge its members to donate money to several environmental groups, a list that includes LeadingGreen — an alliance between the Natural Resources Defense Council Action Fund and the League of Conservation Voters that was formed in 2014.

It may be down on the list, but it also might be a tipping point issue that pushed people over the line into voting or not voting for a candidate.

Just like the whole “war on women” was. Like Global Warming, the WoW didn’t register high on the list of issues Americans cared about. What it did do was create, for a time, a point on which to determine whether you liked a candidate or not (or, rather, thought the candidate was an a**hole or not)

I see GW as the same sort of thing. Americans may not care about the issue, but they’ll think anyone who “denies” it is an a**hole. And they won’t vote for an a**hole.

Good money after bad. In military parlance it is called “reinforcing defeat”, and not a good idea.

In carnival terms, these folks are “Rubes with too much loot.”

They’re going with the worst candidate and the issue voters care least about.

Sounds good.

After all the clean air regulations imposed and enforced here in the USA then we should have the cleanest air per capita in the world.

The USA should be way down on the list of producers of supposed greenhouse gases.

It’s economic slavery for the E.P.A. and the U.N. to impose more sanctions on the American worker and American citizen.

It’s time we get off the plantation.

The fact that China runs their coal fire powerplants gone unchecked and pollute the air is proof that the Global Warming Hoax and Climate a change lie is nothing but to break the economic back of America..

HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT OF RED CHINA 2016
Since it’s her top priority to stop polluters.

Continuing to push this nonsense is a political gift to opponents if they care to cease upon it.

This is what you do when you HAVE NOTHING TO RUN ON except lies, sham, deception, deceit, and legacy of crime.

And here it comes!!! This “woman” cannot run on ANYTHING she has done...since she had DONE NOTHING except things which she cannot admit.

What a total disaster she is. Go For It Hitlery!!!

Steyer spent $100 million on the 2014 midterm elections, with the end goal of making climate change a pivotal issue in the 2016 race for the White House.

Love it..isn't the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results?

Forget about ice ages and warming trends, etc. None of this has anything to do with global warming or climate change or the environment or saving the planet. Don't get me wrong. Most of those at the bottom of the liberal food chain believe the issue is real and about "fixing" the climate. That is what they have been told, taught and indoctrinated to think. But the powers behind the climate change movement, the elitist left, know better. To them the objective has to do with destroying free market capitalism and substituting radical socialism in its place. In other words, system change. Simple as that. The climate change movement is just a ruse to cover what their real goals are. This is why you should never get into an argument with a climate change wing-nut talking about CO2 or fossil fuels or extreme weather events or carbon footprints or carbon credits. You'll never win. All of these so-called "facts" are manipulated to fit the narrative that man is destroying the planet and the liberals need to ride in on their white horse in their shining armor and save man from themselves. Horse-pucky.

Just remember, liberals are dishonest and deceitful by their very nature. What they say they are doing is not what their real goals are. It's all a big head fake. They have given themselves a free pass to lie to the voters in order to accomplish their ultimate goals. Just think about the list of known, publicly-documented liars in the democRAT party. Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Eric Holder, John Kerry, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and on and on and on. Lying is part of their DNA and reputation. The end justifies the means with these people.

David Horowitz has put it best, "The issue [climate change] is never the issue. The issue is always the [socialist] revolution."
