Romney reaffirms stance that global warming is real
Boston Globe ^ | June 4, 2011 | Matt Viser

Posted on 06/04/2011 1:30:50 AM PDT by UniqueViews

In the first town hall of his freshly announced presidential campaign, Mitt Romney yesterday reaffirmed his view that global warming is occurring and that humans are contributing to it, a position that has been rejected in recent years by many Republicans as the issue has taken on a greater partisan tinge.

"I don't speak for the scientific community, of course," Romney said. "But I believe the world's getting warmer. I can't prove that, but I believe based on what I read that the world is getting warmer. And number two, I believe that humans contribute to that . . . so I think it's important for us to reduce our emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases that may well be significant contributors to the climate change and the global warming that you’re seeing."

Romney = a total jerk (from Massachusetts, who would have thunk).

WOW! You must have ate the propaganda and came here to regurgitate it.

Considering Mitt and Newt, along w/Jeb Bush declared the Reagan Era is over - it would make a good photo of “The Deceivers”.

Like those who never read Obamacare and pushed it through - telling us that’s it’s good for us. Mitt doesn’t need to read anything either - he just believes. Mitt is a not a leader but a mind numbing robot with fluffy hair and an empty suit.

We can just ignore him - doubt if he has the sense to get out of the race - HIS EGO is a hindrance.

I meant who can beat Obama—not that nobody can beat him. Who that might be is not at all clear at this point. So I haven’t eaten anyone’s propaganda. I have a hunch you think Palin can win. If so, why not say it? And I never said she couldn’t.

Really? This With due respect, who can? doesn't read that way.

So I haven’t eaten anyone’s propaganda

You've sprouted out what they say - you don't get that poison here.

It's does matter who one is for - it's has nothing to do with With due respect, who can? (beat him)

Yes, really. I clarified what I meant. I never said nobody can beat Obama. I just am not sure who that is. It’s also possible that the usurper could win. If you like your interpretation you are welcome to it.

Out of the heart, the mouth speaks. with respect, who can?

Those are your words, not my interpretation.

In my view, as I stated in my post, Newt and Romney ARE in the same class. That class remains under the heading of “those for which I will not vote.”
