Chris Christie says global warming is real. It’s just the very man-made government programs to correct its effects that are bloated and flawed.
The Republican New Jersey governor launched into an explanation Thursday for why he’s bowing out of a landmark regional cap-and-trade program for power plants, according to Politico, but he first strapped on his layman scientist’s cap to give a brief overview of what’s widely considered accepted climate science.
His decision to leave the program, known as the RGGI, drew quick praise from conservative groups, including the Koch brothers’ Americans for Prosperity, that have long lobbied him to abandon the RGGI ship.
“In the past I’ve always said that climate change is real and it’s impacting our state,”

Saving face.
Can’t quite admit the entire scheme is a scam.
Relentless radio ads demanding he take NJ out of the consortium has forced his hand.
No more Christie for me: RINOism confirmed.
Put Chris Christie on the Sh__t list !What an ignorant Jackwad !
RE: Chris Christie says global warming is real
The earth has been warming and cooling alternately for centuries. What part of the cycle are we in right now Mr. Christie?
And even if you could answer that question, is there a dam thing you can I can do about it?
Que the Twilight Zone music over the video of Nancy Pelosi moving her couch to Christie’s front lawn.
It is POLLUTION that is real, and we should stop all of that
No one wants dirty air.
But these Global Warming scammers are just going forwards, bold as brass, as if we DID NOT find out they lied about their data???
HEY YOU GUYS~!! WE KNOW YOU LIED AND MADE UP YOUR DATA ALREADY - SO STOP IT
“I have read FReepers say that they liked Christie for Prez.”
Just the un-informed. FReepers who do the research know the truth about Christie. He’s liberal on other issues as well.

Learn to burn Global Warmers. Anthropomorphic Global Warming is total, complete, irrevocably flawed, scientific hosshiite on the order of the Piltdown Man, or better yet the Giant Cardiff Stone Man.

Christie is rather bloated and flawed as well.
So he’s a loser on illegal immigration and global warming. The list keeps growing.
I see it and I am to say the least dismayed,,to believe the greatest hoax played upon civilization is real is the ultimate red flag for me.
Highs today are only expected to get into the mid 50s today in southern Michigan. Can I get me some of this so called global warming?
I think he’s probably equivocating his remarks just to get the NJ press off his back. That’s not to say if he were running for governor of Oklahoma he’d turn into Jim Inhofe on the issue, but he’s doing this now to send us a message of where he stands on C&T. I think he’s running.
Besides, I could believe that humans are having SOME impact on the climate, but to say we’re driving the different climate conditions is patently absurd. Even more absurd is the idea that some politicians can craft a scheme that can actually change the climate.
He needs to be asked, point blank, if human carbon emissions are the cause of climate change.
Then, follow up with
“how can a contributor that is 0.117% of the total greenhouse effect be changed to have any significant impact on the whole greenhouse effect?”

Is he sure about this? I mean, it’s May 27th and my feet are freezing.
They have only heard him get tough with a few mouthy teachers, makes him look tough, but he is a gun grabber, global warming baloney believer, and recently appointed a Muslim to a high court. One of three republicans that attended the State Dinner for China.......
There is a lot of pollution, and I would prefer not to be poisoned. I suppose I could call my self an enviromentalist because I don’t want to be poisoned.
I don’t believe in Global Warming at all. I just don’t care.
When someone tells me how WE melted the ice cap that used to be right on top of where I’m at right now, I might start thinking about it.
All this talk about “global warming” gives polluters an excuse, and the government accepts that excuse.
Goretex jackets are made from teflon. Teflon poisons people as part of the manufacturing process with a man made chemical which stays in the body for years.
Goretex believes that, although they are poisoning you, it’s still a “green” product, because their garment doesn’t have to be washed as often, and lasts longer.
I don’t care at all about how warm or cold the planet is. If you’re going to buy waterfront property, buy it on a hill.
I don’t care about how much energy anyone uses.
I do want Natural products, and not Toxic Chemicals.
Obama is very weak on the environment (new GMOs from Monsanto approved during Obama), and a Green Party nominee could do quite well, and quite well for the Republicans, in 2012. There should be a Green Party candidate.
