Obama: global consensus — not just 99.5% of scientists and experts, but 99% of world leaders
Business Insider ^ | 12/1/2015 | Colin Campbell

Posted on 12/01/2015 9:03:42 AM PST by DCdude

Obama suggested other world leaders think climate change is "a really big problem," even if Republicans don't.

"So whoever is the next president of the United States, if they come in and they suggest somehow that that global consensus — not just 99.5% of scientists and experts, but 99% of world leaders — think this is really important, I think the president of the United States going to need to think this is really important," he continued.

He further said the broader American public was with him on the issue.

"It's important for us to not project what's being said on a campaign trail but to do what's right and make the case," Obama said. "And I would note that the American people, I think in the most recent survey, two-thirds of them said America should be a signatory to any agreement that emerges that is actually addressing climate change in a serious way."

So as I was driving in to work this morning listening to Fox on my Sirius radio, I hear POTUS giving a live press conference.

As if polluting the air in Paris is not enough for Pres BS'er, he has to pollute the airwaves back here as well. I just laughed out loud at the garbage that was coming out of his mouth.

I thought the left's talking point was a 97% 'consensus' on climate change? Not according to our feckless leader. To him it is a 99.5% consensus now.

On to Turkey and their Islamist Erdogan. Obama says his ole buddy Erdogan (the one who is bombing the Kurds, jailing any media he doesn't like, and doing a redo on an election that he didn't like the results of) is doing a good job, but needs to do a better job of 'closing his border' with Syria.

According to Barry, all sorts of riff raff ISIS types are using the not secure border to move weapons and fighters back and forth from Turkey to Syria. You would think that he might find his call to 'close the border' slightly ironic. It seems Mexican cartels are using another 'not secure' border to move migrants (along with probably jihadis) and drugs across our border.

You would think he might make the same linkage with the borders in the EU. Seems those same ISIS bad guys used the 'not secure' borders to transport suicide bombers and AK-47's across the EU to the very city where he is dining at Michelin 3 Star restaurants.

The man is parody of himself. It would actually be funny if so many people had not been killed because of his stupidity in dealing with global jihad. His call for action on 'climate change' will have equally horrible consequences.

The bodies of Paris’s dead have scarcely had time to cool, and he stands on top of them prattling on about the freaking weather.

This is obscene.

And 100% of con artists.

So according to him, 0.5 percent of all scientists on the entire planet are telling the truth.

Will the MSM call out this insanity? No. They’re all in. No fact checking required.

To call him out for being a raving lunatic would be embarrassing after they worked so hard to get and keep him in office.

ONLY Scientific Method validates science. Consensus validates elections AND NOTHING ELSE.

He is becoming a parody of himself.

I am surprised he did not just say 110% of everyone agrees climate change is the biggest problem facing the world. The media would not challenge him and comedians will not make a joke at his expense.

I sometimes think he just says things like this just to show us peons that he can get away with anything.

Same percentage thought the world was flat in 1492.

And that was only 523 years ago.

Well, I'm a scientist.

I happen to believe that computer models with lots and lots of variables, like some climate models, are not likely predictive of anything valid.

Models can be nudged down any desired path by biased assumptions and inputs; and once the models' predictions are shown to be invalid (as I suspect is the current case, the "warming" essentially stopped) there is no good scientific reason to consider their results of any value.

“not just 99.5% of scientists and experts, but 99% of world leaders”

And the OTHER 99% know it is a fraud.
