Climate and Weather

Congressman Thomas Massie has lowered the politics of climate to his own level of understanding --

Massie: Sec. Kerry, I want to read part of your statement back to you: “Instead of convening a kangaroo court, the president might want to talk with the educated adults he once trusted his top national security positions.” It sounds like you’re questioning the credentials of the president’s advisers, currently. But I think we should question your credentials today. Isn’t it true you have a science degree from Yale?
Kerry: Bachelor of arts degree.
Massie: Is it a political science degree?
Kerry: Yes, political science.
Massie: So how do you get a bachelor of arts, in a science?
Kerry: Well it’s a liberal arts education and degree. It’s a bachelor…
Massie: OK. So it’s not really science. So I think it’s somewhat appropriate that someone with a pseudo-science degree is here pushing pseudo-science in front of our committee today.
Kerry: Are you serious?! I mean this is really a serious happening here?
Massie: You know what? It is serious. You’re calling the president’s Cabinet a “kangaroo court.” Is that serious?
Kerry: I’m not calling his Cabinet a kangaroo court, I’m calling this committee that he’s putting together a kangaroo committee.
Massie: Are you saying it doesn’t have educated adults now?
Kerry: I don’t know who it has yet because it’s secret.
Massie: Well you said it in your testimony.
Kerry: Why would he have to have a secret analysis of climate change?
Massie: Let’s get back to the science of it.
Kerry: But it’s not science, you’re not quoting science!
Massie: Well, You’re the science expert. You have the political science degree.

If you are really concerned about atmospheric methane, you can ignore trees since they are net sequesters and focus your attention on sea-bottom clathrates and melting permafrost.

Funny how a week ago you had no clue that trees released methane gas. Now, suddenly you're full of information to share. So tell me E, whats your source?

The idiots are truly in charge. This Massie guy is as stupid as they come.
About the only smart conservative in Congress (except for McConnell, who really knows the tactics and rules of Congress better than anyone) is Ben Sasse of Nebraska...and he’s made it pretty clear that he’s embarrassed by all the idiots.

You should probably stop using financial phrases as a method to critique me, gubmint worker. Unless you want to compare strategies and yields. I’m sorry that you aren’t credit-worthy to obtain collateralized debt. Call me for tips.
