Rick Santorum: Climate Change is Patently Absurd and a Liberal Conspiracy

TPM writes Rick Santorum: The Idea Of Climate Change Is A Liberal Conspiracy.

"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."

"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."

"He has also said that intelligent design 'is a legitimate scientific theory that should be taught in science classes.'"

Pennsylvania, this man was your Senator for 12 years. You elected him twice. He's delusional.
