WASHINGTON — President Obama called out climate change deniers in Congress for being weak on defense, saying it would be "dereliction of duty" for the United States to ignore the national security implications of rising global temperatures.
Obama's convocation speech at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy Wednesday was his most forceful argument yet that climate change ranks alongside terrorism as a grave threat to America's future.
"I know there are some folks back in Washington who refuse to admit that climate change is real," he told graduating cadets in New London, Conn. "Denying it or refusing to deal with it undermines our national security. ... Politicians who say they care about military readiness need to care about this as well."

there’s not a shred of evidence that al gore has half the mind the polar bear does.... is there
Is there anything “climate change” can’t do?
Imho, 0bama and his regime is a greater threat to the U.S. than global warming could ever be.

Climate change is a global leftist scheme at redistribution of wealth from the developed world to the third world. It will be overseen by the UN.
Blame Globull varming .. His mind is mush.. Hillary’s is jell-o.
Here is a direct quote from the original IPCC Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 1990:
quote “Changes in sea ice: There will be substantial loss of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean. Predictions for summer ice indicate that its extent could shrink by 60% for a doubling of carbon dioxide (CO2), opening new sea routes. This will have major trading and strategic implications. With more open water, there will be a moderation of temperatures and an increase in precipitation in Arctic lands. Antarctic sea-ice volume is predicted to decrease by 25% or more for a doubling of CO2”
They have been wrong about everything.
“She’s a witch!”
“err... I mean... she’s a CLIMATE DENIER!”
If this were truly a problem he would be able to answer:
How does human activity impact climate change?
How do you measure that?
What other factors beyond human control might have a larger and overriding influence on climate change?
If we do nothing, when will we see the claimed effects?
Question to Obama:
“How are you going to impose Population Control, Destroy Capitalism and American Industry, once a majority of people recognize man-made climate change is a fraud?”
YES IT IS!!!!
Well, he”s made a fortune off a scam
a fair sized fortune at that.
what would become of al gore if he ever “developed” a conscience?
So, the Coast Guard now has a new mission, to keep the climate exactly the same forever? I guess that’ll give them something to do while the people smuggling ships pass by with impunity. Yup. Right on, man.
Don’t look, Maryan.
The real threat is global mating. If Mt. Everest gets any more erect, it’ll erupt. Tell Saturn to stop shaking her rings at Earth.
She’s in league with Man-Bear-Pig!
This literally is more in line with the Inca’s and the Aztecs who performed human sacrifices to satisfy the Gods who controlled the weather. I would guess that the number of people starving from stupid policies diverting food to fuel in the name of reducing pollution combined with the number of people being murdered by terrorists that Obama has let run wild is far greater than what the Aztecs and Incas ever came close to killing.
Agreed.
Being made to endure Obola’s disgraceful presence at the USCGA, is nearly as bad as Janet Nepolitano speaking at the US Coast Guard Academy graduation ceremony I attended a few years ago.
Such a sad state of affairs that those who give their lives to protect our country should have to endure incompetent and treasonous leadership that puts us all in harms way.
Obola and Biden aided the enemy to kill Seal Team Six, and Bengazi military personnel.
I will never forget or forgive the bastards hostile acts toward our nation.
“Nasa released report stating no change in ice caps since1979”
Really? Do you have a source? I would love to give that info to my idiot liberal neighbor.
I’m sure your neighbor will have some kind of reply anyway
