Of course, the extreme left (which is most of them) will trot out their “anti-science” and “flat-earther” talking points: Mitt Romney tweaks climate stance
Hours after being called “mushy on environmental issues” by a Republican senator (it was Jim Inhofe), Mitt Romney has tweaked his position on global warming.
Asked Wednesday at a Lebanon, N.H., town hall meeting whether he believed in global warming and if humans contribute to rising temperatures, Romney said he doesn’t know.
“Do I think the world’s getting hotter? Yeah, I don’t know that but I think that it is,” Romney said, as reported by Reuters. “I don’t know if it’s mostly caused by humans.”
So, he’s gone from being a True Believer, to “I’m not sure.” Personally, I could care less if someone is a Disciple of Gore. Sure, I’ll attempt an intervention and get them to come back to reality and leave the cult, but, when it comes to a politician, the biggest thing to me when it comes to this, or any other issue, is what actions they will take
“What I’m not willing to do is spend trillions of dollars on something I don’t know the answer to,” he added.
THAT’S the part that I’m focused on when it comes to a person running for elected office: he won’t actually Do Something about globull warming and will not act to Do Something to Someone Else.
Climate Depot’s Marc Morano writes “Huntsman is the only candidate left who believes we can control the weather through taxes and regulation. The GOP is officially pro-science when it comes to man-made global warming.”
And, for some comic relief, here are some Tweets from Alarmists on Hurricane Irene, which will be the first hurricane to his the US since Ike in September 2008, if it does, well over 1,000 days. Didn’t alarmists say hurricanes would be more prevalent due to globull warming?

- adam_foley Adam Foley Where u at Conservatives? Earthquake & hurricane will hit Virginia n the same week. What u mean there is no climate change? #PissedOffEarth
Oh, sorry, those last two are about the Virginia earthquake. Anyhow, the eyewall of Irene is projected to stay offshore, which would mean that, technically, Irene did not make landfall.
I am with you. I don’t care what they feel is the truth as long as they don’t feel compelled to act on the “science” by destruction of the economy. Of course, Obama is doing a great job of that without climate justification.
