It's Lindsey Graham vs. Donald Trump on climate crisis
CNN ^ | Fri July 12, 2019 | Lauren Dezenski

Posted on 07/12/2019 9:33:07 AM PDT by Jayster

Sen. Lindsey Graham is sounding an alarm on climate change -- and hoping to make it loud enough for President Donald Trump to hear. "I would encourage the President to look long and hard at the science and find a solution. I'm tired of playing defense on the environment," the South Carolina Republican said in a news conference on Wednesday. Graham said acknowledging -- and embracing -- the climate crisis as an issue in the GOP can be a good thing, and the party is ignoring it at its own peril.

Now is the time to get rid of the Bush League Republicans, starting with Flimsey Grahamnesty.

Bush League Republicans want to help the Democrats get a permanent majority through amnesty.
Before President Trump the citizens had virtually NO representation.
They are hoping to block him and wait out his term(s) and continue the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA)

For 2020, the ones up are, Flimsey Grahamnesty, Tillis, Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, Ernst and McConnell.
They all should have primary challengers.

They are all Bush League Republicans.
They need to be replaced with real Republicans that side with the citizens and the rule of law.

The only ones worthy of re-election are Inhofe, Sullivan, Cotton, Perdue, Risch and Cassidy.

Hey Lindsay- Lake Tahoe is filled to capacity this year- the west was inundated with floods this year- We’ve still got flooding across the country this year- after many years of screaming about droughts caused by global warming- we now have more water than we can handle- What happened to your climate change?

We HAVE reviewed the science- the REAL science, on climatedepot.org and it is very very clear that man isn’t having any impact on the climate-

“Changing Gore-Bull Warming to climate change was a brilliant stroke, because their CO2 theory is full of hot air and ALL of their models have been wrong.

His position is understandable if you acknowledge that Graham is a weasel.”

I am not a scientist, but from what I have read, it appears you are right. Climate change happens, has happened, will happen. Human activity has little to no effect, when you consider all the variables. Adapt or die.

Graham is a “skilled” politician, which is a nice way of saying weasel. If a politician wants to be elected/re-elected, acknowledging the serious threat of climate change is a good strategy. The sheep are begging to be fleeced, may as well accommodate them.

The President Of one country on this planet should SOLVE A UNIVERSAL SOLAR PROBLEM?

It’s like asking the squirrel in my yard to solve the LA homeless issue.

Hannity, I can't stand when you use the collective "we" in calling Americans "stupid." Please direct that passion of yours to those who are truly stupid--the ones who keep voting Linda in. ;)

I agree, his constituents should have booted him out of office long ago, but apparently there's not enough conservatives in that mix. But in the interim, there are perhaps many things conservatives in his district should and could be doing now to get their message across.

“I’m not voting for that.”

People like you, or me, are not who they are trying to win over. You won’t vote Dem, so the calculation favors risking you voting 3rd party, while possibly winning over more votes from the squishy middle.

Flimsy Graham sits on a revolving stool, to make it easier for him to change his positions all day long.

I'm tired of playing defense on the environment,

What does that even mean. Are you tired of playing defense against the other 99 socialist leftist issues too?

Politicians are so scientifically illiterate it makes me shudder.

Climate change is a brilliant ruse, it can’t be disproved, and any action can’t be scrutinized for effectiveness.

And the minute a Democrat is in office the whole problem is solved and the oceans levels begin to sink and the earth begins to heal. {puke}

I thought Lindsey was to hold some hard hitting hearings on FISA abuse and other abuses related to the DOJ and FBI during the attempted coup.

A PhD scientist I know runs a research lab at a major university. He tells me that the young students with whom he works will say to him, “Science says ... “.
At this point he stops them and say, “Science doesn’t say anything. Scientists say (stuff)...., but that is not at all the same as .....”
Hopefully we can use more of this kind of pushback against the worshipers of the pseudo-scientist priesthood.

You believed him?

He’s in that up to his neck.
He was McCain’s right hand man.
You don’t think he knew all about the dossier?

My squirrel won’t go near those smelly creeps. But yes, they do all belong in the mayor’s manse. All over that glorious property and several in each room. Gift baskets for each.
