Santorum Sanctum

Rick "The Froth" Santorum went on El Rushbo's radio show on Wednesday and called global climate change a "patently absurd" hoax and conspiracy perpetrated by eeeeeeeevil liberals.

Santorum was on Rush Limbaugh's radio show Wednesday, where he was asked whether he agrees with Mitt Romney's comments from last Friday, embracing the universally accepted science of man-made climate change.

Santorum replied:

I believe the earth gets warmer and I also believe the earth gets cooler, and I think history points out that it does that and that the idea that man, through the production of CO2 -- which is a trace gas in the atmosphere, and the manmade part of that trace gas is itself a trace gas -- is somehow responsible for climate change is, I think, just patently absurd.

Santorum continued that the idea of man-made climate change may be part of a liberal conspiracy: "To me this is an opportunity for the left to create -- it's really a beautifully concocted scheme because they know that the earth is gonna cool and warm. It's been on a warming trend so they said, 'Oh, let's take advantage of that and say that we need the government to come in and regulate your life some more because it's getting warmer.'"

"It's just an excuse for more government control of your life," he added, "and I've never been for any scheme or even accepted the junk science behind the whole narrative."

The Froth here is a serious candidate for President who thinks climate change is an excuse for more government control of your life, but he has no problem with much more government control regulating women's vaginas, much more government control over who is allowed to get married, and government control over who can and cannot worship in America.

But climate change is just a hoax for more government control over how we live.  Sure.

Stupid reality and its liberal bias!  New tag:  Rick The Froth Santorum.
