“I remember Pawlenty and Newt supporting this nonsense as well. Did Perry? “

Looks like he is definitely NOT buying into it:

Texas Blasts Federal Efforts to Fight Global Warming

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124458842076899771.html

“Ms. Combs joined Gov. Rick Perry, also a Republican, at a meeting with industry leaders in the state capitol to discuss the threat of federal climate-change policy and underscore the energy-producing state’s skittishness towards the environmental concerns that are at the core of the Obama administration’s policy-making.

“I happen to think that what they are discussing could wreck our traditional energy industry and put a very serious dent in our economy,” said Mr. Perry. He repeated his view that the proposed provisions that recently passed out of committee in the House of Representatives amounted to the largest tax increase in history. The provisions would put a limit on emissions of the gasses blamed for climate change and require companies to pay for permits to pollute. As a result, “Every American that uses any source of energy would see their bills go up,” he said.”

Libs say that Obama should not grant disaster relief to Texas for wildfires, because those are the result of global warming, and Perry does not support the global warming dogma.
