Defeat came for Republican Rep. Bob Inglis because he slid to "Satan's side."
That's how South Carolina voters perceive Inglis' newfound belief in climate change, says the outgoing lawmaker, who lost his primary bid in June to tea party candidate, and now representative-elect, Trey Gowdy.
Inglis reflected on several blasphemies he committed in the eyes of voters in a departing interview last week, held in his congressional office. They ranged from opposing President George W. Bush's troop surge in Iraq to supporting his Troubled Asset Relief Program. But none of those, Inglis said, had as strong an impact as his assertions that atmospheric warming is a scientific certainty.

Politically incorrect? Nah, just plain stupid. Good riddance.
He deserved to lose. Anybody that believes in the AGW scam is too stupid to hold any position of importance in government.
It’s not politically incorrect to believe in fairy tales.
Liberals like to say we’re stupid and ignorant. Even though there is no evidence climate change - at least man-made climate change is occurring anywhere in the world. That BS has been force-fed and indoctrinated as politically correct orthodoxy by the Left. It is we who are politically incorrect about it - and proudly so!
This guy still whining. Jeez. Rinos can’t let go of power. He’ll probably be back in two years as a rat. Showing his true colors.
Don’t follow the will of the people, get your ass voted out of office.
Until the elitists at the NYT take over, we’re still a Republic.
When you have publicly proven beyond a shadow of a doubt you are a incompetent hack for special interests whom hold the central tenet of American government power is the complete control of all industrial and commercial activity, you are indeed going to be voted out of office.
Somehow this point has never dawned upon the NYTimes editorial board, or is a concept so hideous, so revolting, it can not be even mentioned in passing in the esteemed papers of the old grey lady.
It is the strangest thing...
Inglis - - as well as the author of this column - - act as though the "global warming" scam was never exposed to the world last November by the leak of damning emails that were exchanged by the grant-whore "climate scientists" at East Anglia.
Inglis and the rest of the climate dupes couldn't have missed it, so what are they doing? Closing their eyes and covering their ears and chanting, "La la la la la la la la..."? Pretending that if they ignore the climategate scandal it will go away?
...Just the strangest thing.
Sucking meaning right of the term, the Times is.
Or too corrupt... most likely corrupt and stupid.

Well, they have partially succeeded by distracting people with the e-mails and saying a few rancorous e-mails don’t change the scientific “facts”. They’ve managed to distract most people from the other leaks in ClimateGate — the computer program source code that CRU used to fudge all the raw data before they destroyed the original raw data so it could not be provided under the FOIA requests. That is the actual proof that the “scientific facts” are all bogus.
Political correctness IS a belief in fairy tales.
This is what Lindsey Graham has to look forward to, next time he comes up for election.
he voted to censor Joe Wilson who only spoke the truth.
I am betting that Inglis was also a big Free Trader Globalist.
Not all Free Traders are Global Warming kooks.....but all Global Warming kooks are Free Traders.
Bob Inglis does not realize that acting like Al Gore does not win elections in conservative areas
“...many evangelical Christians in our district would say that it’s up to God to determine the length of Earth, and therefore, you are invading the province of God.”

Not surprised with this....as Pat Robertson is a big Global Warming kook....and has spent millions on advertising pushing the Global Warming Agenda thru his Robertson Foundation
And, Eobertson is all a big Free Trader Globalist.....there is that link again to Global Warming and Free Trade
Inglis is an outlier; conservative Republican who morphed into a left leaning Democrap. This is why there should be term limits.
Anybody who believes in the AGW scam is too stupid to write for the New York Times... but I guess they don’t enforce that rule.
