CNN's Tapper: Republican party 'acts as if climate change is not real'

CNN anchor Jake Tapper said the Republican party "acts as if climate change is not real" in an interview with Sen. John McCain on Sunday.

"The Republican Party, as you know, generally speaking, acts as if climate change is not real," Tapper continued. "There are exceptions, you, your daughter, Meghan, the Republican mayor of Miami. But generally speaking, the president, the governor of Florida, et cetera, act as if it’s not real even though the overwhelming scientific consensus is that it’s real and it’s man made."

"Back in 2012 when Superstorm Sandy hit, your daughter Meghan McCain tweeted, 'So are we still going to go with climate change not being real, fellow Republicans?' "

"I don't know because I can't define their motives," replied McCain. "But I know that there are things happening with the climate in the world that is unprecedented. "

And that’s just a start.

Tapper here, has mastered the art of being an idiot journalist.

Edward Bernaise consulted with Lucky Strike cigarettes and found that they weren’t selling because of the green packaging. He decided it would be cheaper to convince people green is a good color than it would be to change the packaging.

He sponsored a green ball, designers to come up with green furniture and green colored interiors. Green became “in” and Lucky Strike started selling more cigarettes.

I have a feeling we’re being played in a similar way on the whole ‘climate change’ nonsense.

Accuracy is not the real problem. The problem is determining what the temperature of the earth should be at any point in time.

There is no answer...but these nutso scientists say they know what it should be. Absurd!!

-—Man-made climate change is debatable.——

Not really...

For it to be a debatable subject, you need for man-made climate change to measurable, which it isn’t...

Jake, climate change is real. But man (all the people on earth) cannot control the earth’s climate, period.

If you think otherwise, you are mentally ill.

A TV reporter is an entertainer, nothing more then that.
He/she is an entertainer that can’t sing, dance, do drama or comedy. All they can do is look telegenic, fake sincerity & sound authoritative when reading from a teleprompter. They are not there to tell you anything, they are there to generate ratings. They ratings go they go!
Go ask Megan Kelly!

John McCain: “But I know that there are things happening with the climate in the world that is unprecedented. “

___________________________________________________

McCain, I admit you are old as hell, but I doubt you are old enough to say that anything that happens with the weather is “unprecedented”...

Over the millions of years, it is bound to have happened before, you fool....

The lack of strong hurricanes for several years is weather. One strong hurricane is climate. That must be the “science” they keep talking about.

What about people who actually think that the government has your best interest and has the ability to change the climate?

Yes. Climate Change is REAL. Its been going on since the Cambrian Period and BEFORE and will continue to go on into the future. Regardless of Statist politicians and their money-grubbing globalist crony capitalist buddies using government regulations to allow them to make a fortune on bogus energy scams.
