Thom Hartmann: GOP uses science to find white bigots...how about climate change?
It was science that determined that global warming and climate change were real - and now it’s science that’s determined that the Republican Party is full of “stuffy old men.” Earlier today - the Republican National Committee released its wide-ranging “autopsy” report called the "Growth And Opportunity Project Report." In it - the party admits to several shortcomings that contributed to the party’s wide losses in the 2012 election. A portion of the report includes market research from voter focus groups around the country. Not surprisingly - when asked to describe Republicans - respondents said that the party was “scary,” “narrow-minded,” “out of touch,” and full of “stuffy old men.” Of course - one of the issues that the Republican Party is most “out of touch” with Americans on is climate change.
