The poster of this article, OldEconomyBuyer, conveniently edited out the one paragraph that gave this whole Article context.
The amendment was expected to fail, but Republicans parsed the words of the amendment, arguing they could vote for it but at the same time believe that climate change was not man-made.
Read the article next time.

Technically correct. Climate change is a FACT. Has been for about 4.5 BILLION YEARS!
Mother Earth is gonna do what Mother Earth is damn well wants to do and there ain’t a damn thing Barry, Algore, Congress or anyone else, is gonna do to change that.

If this gets enough Democratic votes to make Keystone veto proof so be it. Let these Obama policies die the death of a thousand cuts.

Yeah, I noticed that. Inhofe basically voted against himself.

Do you believe in climate change or climate cycles? People say the weather is changing when we go from winter into spring but we are just moving to another natural weather cycle.
To: SoConPubbie
In this case they shamed it for being silly.

The oligarchs are pretty confident that they wont wind up dangling from streetlamps. We need a children's book titled: There Are Many Lampposts in DC.

To: USFRIENDINVICTORIA
I believe that climate change is real, also. There is an enormous amount of evidence of it in the Bible.
What I DO NOT think is real, is that humanity is the primary cause of it. IN Europe, the issue is Anthropomorphic Global Warming (AGW), and is usually described that way.

Here's the Amendment they voted FOR
This is all the Amendment stated, it did not mention that it was Man-Made or that the cause of Global Warming is the fault of man. This was a parliamentary trick by the opposition to try and derail the "Keystone XL pipeline" legislation, nothing more.
SA 29. Mr. WHITEHOUSE submitted an amendment intended to be proposed to amendment SA 2 proposed by Ms. MURKOWSKI (for herself, Mr. HOEVEN, Mr. BARRASSO, Mr. RISCH, Mr. LEE, Mr. FLAKE, Mr. DAINES, Mr. MANCHIN, Mr. CASSIDY, Mr. GARDNER, Mr. PORTMAN, Mr. ALEXANDER, and Mrs. CAPITO) to the bill S. 1, to approve the Keystone XL Pipeline; which was ordered to lie on the table; as follows:
On page 3, between lines 19 and 20, insert the following:
SEC. __. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING CLIMATE CHANGE.
It is the sense of the Senate that climate change is real and not a hoax.

So then OldEconomyBuyer will no longer be credible here anymore ...
To: Oldeconomybuyer
I heard on the radio that they voted “That Climate Change ‘Is Not A Hoax’ “ nonsense for the Keystone Pipeline deal.
To: HiTech RedNeck
I will not vote for a party who hates me and everything I stand for.
The GOP is dead, it just doesn’t know it yet.

Let me make this clear....
If you believe in Climate Change, you believe that it is man-made and the earth will be finished by 2036.
Despite the weak and lame attempt that Inhofe himself made that “he doesn’t believe humans are the primary driver of climate change”, it doesn’t change the fact that Cruz and others were duped into stating that “Climate Change is not a hoax”.
This will seriously come back to haunt them in the future.

You’d better check whether that is true of your soul — it sounds 180 degrees counter to a leading of Christ. One does not tilt at windmills to waste even a narrow door of opportunity, just to exalt one’s own self righteousness.

It is the sense of the Senate that climate change is real and not a hoax. Ok...Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.
To: Responsibility2nd

B.S.!
Logical Fallacy.
The Sun is the primary mover in Climate Change. Secondarily, are volcanic eruptions.
Man is so far down the list of things that can change the climate that the effects are basically nil.
But Climate Change, from the beginning of time, has existed.
