"Data does not matter.
Politics now trumps data."
This new appointee is clearly a mental midget posing as a learned scholar. Where does the exalted one find these treasures to further muck up our lives? This one appears to have become stuck to the sole of Obama's shoe. This specimen even looks incredibly stupid.
Some dull specimens of the scientific community want us to believe that the Earth is several billion years old, and then that same gaggle cherry picks the last 150 years to tell us how drastically things are changing.
This evil Obama regime has got to go! Before we know it Obozo will edict that it is a federal crime to contradict the regime's stand on gorebal warming.
I always find it interesting when a so-called “scientist” finds something that is not debatable.
Essentially, they create religious dogma. And, of course, any debate about established religious dogma is heresy against doctrine.
While that is perfectly OK in matters dealing with the creator of the universe, declarations of heresy in matters dealing with the universe He created somehow seems...anti-intellectual.
I realize that there’s no chance of ever getting rid of DOE, IRS, et. al. but couldn’t they at least pick leaders who weren’t ridiculous?
"Data does not matter.

Actually, maybe he's not that typical ~ he seems to have not heard of the scientific method. I'd do a body search on this guy before he gets in for a visit to the White House. May well be carrying a private stash of some kind.
No debate! Everyone must bow down and accept what I say, or else the full weight of government will be brought to bear against you.
Stuff it you fascist loser!
This guy has spent his whole life on the take - joined faculty at MIT in 1973 after graduating HS in 1962; the time between was spent getting his education. He is probably a smart guy, but he has always been either on the receiving end or the delivering end of the education establishment.
He doesn’t want to debate it because he knows he will lose. He’ll just stick with the idea that a tornado in Kansas is the result of some Mexican azzhole in California driving a 65 Impala.
Does he mean Obama is in the White Hut or that Obama is not passed out somewhere like during the Benghazi raid?
Sounds kind of racist.
Article should be titled, "Obama Appoints Another Larcenous Loser".
great- another “true believer”
let the real climate science skeptics at DOE be prepared for an inquisition ....
""Let me make it very clear that there is no ambiguity in terms of the scientific basis calling for a prudent response on climate change," he told a crowd of Energy Department employees May 21 following his swearing-in ceremony at DOE headquarters. "I am not interested in debating what is not debatable," he added, echoing a recent survey published in the journal Environmental Research Letters ( http://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/climate-weather/blogs/study-97-of-scientists-agree-on-climate-change ) that found 97 percent of climate scientists agree about manmade global warming. "There is plenty to debate as we try to move forward on our climate agenda."
He's not declaring climate change is real or not ... just telling us ... "Ain't gonn'a discuss it ... I'm taxing the shit out of you"
He uses the term ‘climate change’ which he has morphed over to from ‘global warming’ which he KNOWS is too discredited a term to be used. Creep.
Another idiot shows up on the scene. Only “true believers” will be appointed to such positions (DOE, EPA). Don’t let the facts get in the way of global warming’s religious dogma.
Good thing the republicans worked tirelessly to stop his appointment!
Because all physicists are climate experts. /s
Irwin Corey would have been a better choice.
Does he think we will take him seriously while he is wearing his mother’s wig?
LMAO what a buffoon.
But he is right Climate Change is not debatable. there is always climate change, and there isn’t a fugging thing we can do about it.
What we are witnessing is mass suicide. As if they are walking into the gas chambers and closing the doors behind themselves.
So if we get a Super Volcano or a couple major eruptions, you still do not want to debate the merits of cooling the planet even more ?
This guy can not possibly be a physicist. Physicists’ believe in the scientific method which in terms of AGW is a big FAIL, since none predictions have not come to pass. He is a phony!
He’s right!
The climate changes every second and has been since the begining of time!!!
