Pat Robertson: snow in Boston means there's no climate change

[shenmue]

Story here



Giving hope to idiots everywhere, the "Rev." Pat Robertson held forth about winter storms and climate change:

Robertson claimed that the Boston snowstorm helps prove that climate change is a myth created by scientists who have been manipulating data, even though climate change has actually been linked to growing storm intensity.

1. I told one of my acquaintances (about a year ago,,,,after he said...

"It's cold as hell...proves that crap is a bunch of lies"

I said: "Phil, if I pay for night classes for you so you can learn how the Earth works, would you attend"

Kinda pissed himoff
Don't know why.

2. Pat Robertson is the worst kind of pos

He knows global warming is real. Robertson is not a stupid or uneducated man. He graduated magna cum laude and then earned a juris doctor of law degree from Yale University. He was an officer in the U.S. Marines and the son of a U.S. Senator (his title in the Marines was "liquor officer" assigned to procure liquor for the officer's clubs in Japan). The guy behind the scenes is a major investor and global businessman said to be worth in excess of $1 billion.

He knows he's selling crap to the mentally disadvantaged assholes who watch his show. He knows the danger the Earth is in but for money's sake he will never own up to it.

3. He also

probably knows that he will get attention for saying the things he does.

These days, a good showman will go for negative or positive PR, just to float on the media surface. His detractors will point out how ridiculous his statements are and his followers will respond to that with more devotion and defense since they believe he is a good source of information and a person with a "special" connection.
