MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (Reuters) - Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney broke with Republican orthodoxy on Friday by saying he believes that humans are responsible, at least to some extent, for climate change.
"I believe the world is getting warmer, and I believe that humans have contributed to that," he told a crowd of about 200 at a town hall meeting in Manchester, New Hampshire.
"It's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may be significant contributors."

You’re right about that!
Most of them won’t even discuss politics, but they vote on sound bites or what they read in some commie rag.
I keep trying though, because when a voter discovers that they have been conservative all along, It’s a beautiful thing!

Well if Romney has bought into Global Warming then he’s another RINO, Democrat, etc., that wants to control us, we the people, through a State of Fear.
Thanks but no sale.
To: devistate one four
I agree. He even enacted “Obamacare” in Mass. before Obama did.

As I’m sure dozens of people have already said, if it’s getting warmer it’s cause of all the hot air coming out of your mouth Mittens!
Is this jackhole trying to get independents to flood the GOP primaries ala McCain? He sure ain’t appealing to Republican voters.

I believe Pawlenty has honorably flip flopped and disavows his “climate change” past.
Romney is for Romneycare, he’s unacceptable.
Huntsman is worse than Romney. Gingrich is a d-bag. Sanford’s career is over.

I doubt that he really understands the arguments on this subject. Once again, he opts for what he thinks is the popular view. Once again, he is out of touch.

His father made a self-destructive statement when HE was a candidate for president. After a trip to VietNam, he said the military had “brain-washed” him. The loyal American public never forgave his blunder and his candidacy was over. So let it be with Mitt.....

Of course, he “says” that...he’s a socialist. They don’t believe it at all. What they are doing is redistributing wealth.
There is a reason Romney was elected, by voters of the most liberal left state in the union, to the high office of governor of Massachusetts.

Romney is a left-of-center sycphantic fop of a numbskull. Like the simpleton Lugar he is a RINO useful to our enemies.

More likely he’s after Democrat votes, and with so many open GOP primaries he will get them.
