important to this president than the reality of it, which would require them sacrificing a lot of things and even sacrificing republican votes in order to get a few democrats on board. so the president i think just tweeted about global warming or how cold it is. maybe we can put that up. that was last night. okay. in the east, it could be the coldest new year s on record. perhaps we can use a little bit of that good old global warming in our country, but not other countri countries. so bundle up. the president said it s a hoax. global warming isn t happening. for reference, let s put up a map of the entire planet. and you can see the bright red spots are where it is is above normal temperatures. and the arctic is the most alarming part of that. the blue sphrofp we re living through right now is a little tiny part of a big heated planet. it is sort of like not
so there s a lot of sort of strands to this, that the conservative movement does. and ultimately, it is just, again, like a lot of other conservative issues, just sort of rationalizations for corporate interests. red state s erick erickson got theological today. the difference between this is his actual tweet. the difference between the people who believe in the second coming of gee u.s. and those who believe in global warming is that jesus will return. and to tie it into the politics, the important thing is, there are members of the republican party who aren t laughing about this, they regurgitate it. i would say a majority of the republican caucus, i mean, a majority, if you take the house caucus and i m not saying grandstanding for gain. i think privately, actually believe this nonsense. here s congressman john flemming from louisiana. this is his tweet today. global warming isn t so warm these days. i think this is an actual belief of these people. i don t think they re
