Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) on Sunday said he can’t guess why some fellow Republicans deny the scientific consensus that climate change exists and is affected by human activity.
“I don’t know because I can’t divine their motives,” McCain said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
“There is things happening with the climate in the world that is unprecedented,” he added. “We have to understand that the climate may be changing and we can take commonsense measures which will not harm the American people.”
McCain also said an agreement President Donald Trump came to with Democrats for a short-term increase in the debt limit “was not an exercise in bipartisanship.”
“The Republicans leaders, Ryan and McConnell, were surprised to hear that he had cut this deal with Chuck and Nancy,” McCain said, referring to House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI), Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), and their Democratic counterparts House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).
“The proposal that the President accepted, the speaker of the House had just categorically rejected,” McCain said. “So that’s not the way we need to do business.”
Maybe it's because their predictions never come true.
Won’t this clown ever go away?
C’moon actuary tables and carcinoma! Do it! Do it! Do it!
They say a tumor in the area of the brain where McCains tumor was located affects judgement. They become unsound. So anything McCain says now is a result of his brain tumor.
Uh, because Science is not consensus.
Besides there is still no Science of the Climate. If there were they’d get their predictions to be better than 1% of point, every time.
The elites back in the Medieval warm period said the same thing. Blamed it on the numerous witch burnings at the stake
Yo, Juan, taxing us up the wazoo is harmful to us, you friggin' idiot. You wouldn't know because you will make sure you and your family are exempt from whatever taxes we have to pay. And, never having actually owned a business (yeah, yeah, I know your wife is an heiress to the Anheuser/Busch fortune), you have no idea how harmful "common sense" regulations are to business owners.
McShane is wrong at least 99 percent of the time - he’s an embarrassment in desperate need of retirement ASAP
Maybe it’s also because we know how the “scientific proof” is fraudulent or manipulated. My question is, why does a U.S. senator believe fake scientific data? Well, I know why; I’m sure someone or several someones pay him well to tout assorted garbage.
Nah. He has always been stupid. Remember years ago with his hand wringing excuses for the bribery crap he got caught up in? He was clueless then as well -- everyone felt sorry for his stupidity and that is why he got off.
Senator McCain IS POSITIVELY stupid enough to believe in the GloBULL warming cult.
Poor McCain, that brain cancer is really impacting his thinking.
In the mean time,
To honor “Songbird”
We should put on “Tinfoil Hats”
And Whistle Dixie!
Good Bye, Mac!
The claimants of climate confuse science for “Heard it from a friend who Heard it from a friend who Heard it from another........”
Well John, those are usually people with more than 2 brain cells to rub together.
There is no scientific proof. Only model and analytic crap.
If you remember, HIllary used Analytics in the last election for her path to victory.
I don’t deny the the climate changes. I deny anthropogenic global warming.
It’s the “anthropogenic” part that is full of crap.
