California Governor Jerry Brown: Ted Cruz 'Unfit to Be Running' for President
NBC News ^ | 03/22/2015

Posted on 03/22/2015 9:11:05 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

California Gov. Jerry Brown said in an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" that Republican Texas Senator Ted Cruz's position on climate change makes him "absolutely unfit to be running for office."

Responding to comments made by Cruz on "Late Night with Seth Meyers," Democratic Governor Brown said of Cruz, "That man betokens such a level of ignorance and a direct falsification of the existing scientific data. It's shocking and I think that man has rendered himself absolutely unfit to be running for office."

A long-time environmentalist, Brown is dealing with a severe drought in California. He recently announced a $1 billion aid package to help affected residents and prepare for flooding

Brown said the drought being experienced in California could be traced to the buildup of carbon from coal and other sources, and that leaders need to take measures to prevent dire consequences.

"This is a serious matter we're experiencing in California, as kind of a foretaste. But there is no doubt that into the future, we're going to have more problems," he said.

You can see Brown's desperation in rising up to make such a statement. He knows climate change is a hoax but is still trying to keep it going.

JERRY BROWN is California's Answer to the Ayatollahs!!

DIfferent Location...Different CULT...Same Mindset!

Jim Jones...was California's Barack Obama as a matter of fact

that anyone would go to MOONBEAM for ANY opinions marks them as marginally loony at best!

TED CRUZ is several light years more sane,,, than these people!!

Desalination is the obvious answer and Israel has it working, but if we solve the problem then we don’t have it to exploit.

I remember listening (for laughs) to his talk radio show on Pacifica in the late 90s or early 2000s.

If he did I couldn’t find it. The archives I could find online were very spotty.

There are plenty of valid points that can be made against Jerry Brown, but that he left the Jesuit seminary should not count as one of them. He may have just realized that he wasn't cut out to be a priest. I believe that in that era, 90% or more of the Catholic boys who entered a seminary left before ordination. Jesuit seminaries were especially demanding so their attrition rate may have been higher.

The Catholic Church has had to deal with a lot of troublesome priests in recent decades--fortunately Edmund G. Brown, Jr., wasn't one of them.
