Jeb Bush says human activity contributes to climate change, calls for GOP to 'embrace science'
Sun Times ^ | 7/30/15 | SCOTT SUTTON

GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush says that he believes human activity is contributing to climate change, and that the U.S. is obligated to do something about it.

“The climate is changing; I don’t think anybody can argue it’s not. Human activity has contributed to it. I think we have a responsibility to adapt to what the possibilities are without destroying our economy, without hollowing out our industrial core,” Bush said in an interview with Bloomberg BNA published Thursday.

Actually Jeb was pretty good with the Shiavo case, if I remember correctly. I’m just wondering what alien took over his body since then.

You would think Jeb would be right about something. Broken clock, twice a day and all.

The rumors may be true. Jeb really doesn't want the job.

Well, he can "embrace" this consensus driven non-science nonsense that is funded by politically driven government grant-writers if he want's to!!!

I for one will applaud him for sticken his head into that noose of politically driven drivel sponsored by "the dark side" that is one of the biggest hoaxes ever devised by demonic Demonicrats!!!

No more Clintons and no more Bushes!!!

STHU, ¡Yeb!

I’ve forgotten more about the fundamental physical processes at the heart of weather, and the whole CAGW scam stinks to high heaven from where I sit. This is just another reason why you’re not the man.

I’m really annoyed by his weak minded let’s try to agree with liberals on everything, approach.

Yes Jeb I really can deny the “climate is changing”in the sense you mean it. Tell me Jeb what possible sign of this do you see out your window? Because in 60 years I have seen nada except some evidence of the opposite happening.

You are right that what he said is not quite as bad as the headline. BUT he is trying to have it both ways — to split the difference. All he will do is have an incoherent position that drives both sides away. He is not taking a position based on science. He is taking a position based on a mushy middle political strategy. He is doing that loathsome dance of “everybody is right and everybody is wrong.”

If the outcome is Sanders vs Trump, Hillary and Jeb will run together on a “national salvation” ticket.

With his blatant ignorance of actual Science, he seems like a depiction of a country bumpkin on stage in a radio show from the 1940’s. Buck teeth (a couple blacked out), loud plaid shirt, short tie with large flowers on it, overalls, a ragged straw hat, unkempt hair sticking out of the hat, and barefoot.

He steps up to the large microphone with “Mutual” on it.

Bush: “Hyuk, yuk, Mr. Al Gore, hyuk. What didja say about this here global warmin’?”

Gore(dressed as Lou Abbott): “Well, son, you've never been to New York, like I have, see? We know a lot more about how the world works.”

Bush:”Yep, I reckon you know a lot more than a sawdust headed feller like me, yuk!”

Gore: “Well, you see, naturally when you drive around in your truck it warms the Earth up until it gets a terrible fever. The only way to cure is to give all your money to the government. I'm part of the government, so you give all to me, see?”

Bush:”Yesseree Bob, Mr. Al Gore! You kin have it all. What a dummy I've been. I allwuyz thought it was the Sun that warmed the Earth. Shows ya what I know!”
