It’s winter and it’s cold outside, so Climate Change is therefore a hoax. I know you’ve heard that before. It’s a favorite calling card for the stupid… that is, it’s a favorite calling card for the Republicans. Today’s candidate to demonstrate the stupidity? Pat Robertson.
Responding to a comment made by Secretary of State John Kerry that Climate Change is “the greatest problem of our generation,” in the same category with poverty, terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, Pat Robertson felt the need to respond and he chose the dumbest talking point in the Republican arsenal.
“I don’t know where Kerry has been spending his time,” Robertson said, “but maybe he’s so wealthy they have a special house that has tropical plants in it so he feels like he’s in the tropics, but for the rest of us, it’s been cold as the Dickens!”
“It’s idiocy and they’re laughing at people who go outside and it’s freezing!”
