Shawn Donovan, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said on Friday that if you don’t believe in climate change and support federal spending to fight it, you believe the earth is flat.

“The failure to invest in climate solutions and climate preparedness doesn’t get you membership in a fiscal conservatives caucus,” Donovan said at the Center for American Progress in Washington, D.C. “It makes you a member of the Flat Earth Society.”

Dang. Well, unlike the head cheese of the OMB, I am supremely qualified to be a charter member of the Flat Earth Society. Moves this asshat up a notch in the idiot classification much like suzy rice has moved in to the totally incompetent category. So mr. omb, where's your science degree from? Federal spending, by the way dumbass, is wasting MY tax dollars on pie in the sky algore BS. I ain't afraid of no See Uh O2.

"Born in New York, Donovan earned undergraduate and graduate degrees from Harvard University, receiving his bachelor's in 1987, and earning a Master of Public Administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government and a Master of Architecture from the Graduate School of Design in 1995."

I don't doubt he knows something about ancient Greek and Roman architecture, but what does he know about science?

Denying Climate Change ‘Makes You a Member of the Flat Earth Society’

it’s the other way around

[Chode]

what does that make somebody who denies the economy is tanking then??? oh, yeah, Director of the OMB...

“Everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything”

How does someone too ignorant to know that was a joke get to be director of the OMB?

[BatGuano]

Using the phrase “flat earth society” is just parroting the dumbass that sits in the white hut. The dumbass has used that in speeches to titillate the masses. It must be a statement that could save “mr omb’s” job.

Budget Chief: Denying [Man-made Global Warming because its frigging cold] ‘Makes You a Member of the [Sane People] Society.’ Fixed it.

Flat Earthers were the consensus of the day

[CodeToad]

Funny, these pinheads have no idea they are the flat-earth society members. They believe in something not true just because some bad information tells them to.

[Susquehanna Patriot]

Typical statement when scamming for dollars.

Since a few decades of “science” for the multi-billion year old earth is so convincingly on their side despite the fabrications. . .rather than educate those who question - they would rather disparage others.

[Susquehanna Patriot]

“They believe in something not true just because some bad information tells them to.”

I am not sure how many of them even had a look at the “information” but were just told what the “information” said. In fact, if I understand it, they won’t even allow some of their data to be scrutinized. Lefty “pay no attention to the (weather) man behind the curtain” lunacy.

Yes, Penny, assume moral and/or intellectual superiority as you stooge for socialism.

[Amagi]

That’s “Shawn “ not Penny.

Donovan said at the Center for American Progress in Washington, D.C. “It makes you a member of the Flat Earth Society.”

Neo-communist telling to neo-communists how to shut-down the climate change argument by accusing "deniers" of their own sin. Like a rapist accusing his victim of sexual assault. The truth is not in him.

He should be summarily fired.

Flat Earthers were the consensus of the day

And Colombus was a 'denier'.

Promoting the climate change fraud makes you a Fascist.

The purpose of the fraud is to:
Destroy capitalism,
Prevent third world development,
Undermine individual independence,
Population Control,
All in an effort to maximize the power and control of the leftist elite.

[Talisker]

He’s just broadcasting the latest talking points for liberals.

They are children. They need their ever-changing taunt-of-the-week to stand in for rational thought.

America is being murdered by fifty million so-called adults chanting “neener-neener” while claiming to be intellectually superior.

It was warmer in ancient Roman times, and warmer during the Viking Age. Greenland was green when the Vikings farmed there.

The doofus wasn't paying much attention during the time he spent at Hah-vid.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Being a member of the dumbest, most corrupt and most incompetent regime ever to run a government in the history of the “Flat Earth” makes you a drooling, blithering idiot.
