The Planet’s Worst Nightmare: A Republican White House (super barf alert)
The New Republic ^ | 23 Nov, 2015 | REBECCA LEBER

Posted on 11/24/2015 3:35:49 PM PST by MtnClimber

In the second Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton deflected a question about her electability with an observation that could apply to pretty much any issue in the presidential race. She noted "there are some differences among" the Democratic candidates, but those differences "pale compared to what’s happening on the Republican side." Climate change was one of the fundamental divides that she cited. In an exclusive interview last month, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta told me, "Politics is largely about friction. And I view this as a place of high friction with the Republican candidates today."

If Democrats succeed in making climate a vital issue that helps them win in 2016, Republicans will be forced to contend with some awkward arguments they’d much rather continue to ignore.

I don’t know what this idiot author is whining about. We had a republic WH before and the country is still standing. (I am talking bout Reagan, BTW, not RINOBush.)

Will the democrats explain why they support “pigs in a blanket, fry like bacon” which would cause the air to warm?

I’ll bet “climate change” isn’t even on the radar for most voters.

You would think that under a Republican president the global warming would increase until the ‘tars on cars would catch on fire. Should I go do burnouts since when those ‘tars are burning I will wish I used them up first?

Yes, climate change and "fixing" it is a real winning issue for Dems. They should definitely run on that. And gun control. And you know, I have only their best interests at heart, just like when Politico advises Republicans!

These fools somehow believe that “climate change” is going to be a major issue this coming election. I can’t wait to see the looks on their faces and hear the wailing and moaning when it isn’t.

This idiot must not realize that “Climate Change” is dead last on every list I’ve seen of people’s concerns.

If there is any terrorist incident that happens in this country between now and the election, the Dems (who will be complicit) will not be able to elect anyone in any position from city councilman on up.

Great cartoon. I hope they have tantrums. The MSM has dumbed down and misinformed so many, I doubt that the truth matters much anymore.

Such tone deafness after seven solid years of Their Man at the helm, and look at the shape the world is in. They learn nothing. And they call us mind-numbed robots. God help us.

The people who brought us Global Warming are now complaining about “willful ignorance”. The irony abounds.

I’m convinced these lunatics will not be satisfied until we all are submitting to Sharia law or suffering through an endless nuclear winter.h

Forget freedom, forget human lives, the icecaps are melting for Thor’s sake!

At least the US wasn’t being led by a Muslim infiltrator president playing for theoither team doing his best to destroy America and life was normal. Not so anymore. Nothing is safe or sacred anymore and he has much to do with it.

Yeah, you know, it’s just those stupid proles, providing additional evidence how badly they require the guidance of the political elite. [almost makes me puke, just typing that in satire]

They probably know climate change is not true, but in the strategy of orchestrated crisis the solution to the crisis is what counts. Control over energy use is equal to control over the means of production which is always a communist goal.

Maybe I missed something. Did the levels of the sea lower under President Zero??
