Politifact Finds That Warmist Accusation Against Scott Walker Is False

Warmists lying? You don’t say!

(Politifact) If a website from a progressive group is to be believed, state workers in Wisconsin cannot even say the words “climate change.”

So the scottaway.com website, developed by an operation called Forecast the Facts, allows readers to click a red button on the screen and get alternative words to use, like “weather roulette” and “extended Popsicle season.”

Forecast The Facts is a far left group associated with George Soros, Think Progress, and 350.org.

Anyhow, Politifact goes through the claim, and finds

Forecast the Facts said Walker runs a state government that bans “employees from talking about climate change.”

But the group could only name one obscure agency, outside of the governor’s jurisdiction, that has such a rule in place. The rule was aimed at barring its workers from doing climate-change work while on state time. And that rule is poised to be amended. Meanwhile, we found plenty of examples where state agencies were discussing climate change.

We rate the claim False.

Surprise.
