Republicans need to watch their words on ‘climate change’, the libs new way of saying ‘global warming’. Don’t call it a myth, but if asked, just say, “the climate has been changing since the earth was formed, and humans never have, and never will, have any effect on it”.

Agreed. Just saying climate change is a “myth” is a poor response. Conservatives (especially those running for office- sheesh!) should expect this question and be ready to respond with something like this:

“The same government funded scientists told us before it was global cooling, then it was global warming, now it is ‘climate change’. This is a term that is so nebulous that they can claim their predictions are right no matter what the weather is - either hot or cold.

The climate is always changing, which is why vast areas of North America that were under thousands of feet of ice only 20,000 years ago are now ice free.

Doomsday predictors have been with us since the start of history. They have always been wrong and they have generally been regarded by educated people as kooks. We are not going to base public policy on the rantings of such people until they have a long and unblemished record of predicting climate or weather. They have not done so yet.”
