They think they know something, but they never can back it up with evidence.
Like Global Warming. Why do they deny Global Warming when the polar ice caps are melting? It's on the news for crying out loud and they still deny it.

No, idiots. They're really melting. You can sail a **** trhough the North Pole now. No one has ever done that in recorded history.

Most of the more vocal Republi-cons are only restating what they have heard time and time again from their designated talking heads. I have yet to hear an original thought, but each will scream it at the top of their lungs that it is the only right answer.
Regarding global warming. Read the lastest in Smithsonian Magazine about the glaciers and how they are melting at an alarming rate. Most neocons are too busy adding hot air into the atmosphere by shouting 'no they're not' over and over again.

Climate change does happen. Global Warming may occur. But where you and I differ is that you can no more prove that the main cause of Global Warming are people than I could prove to you Global Warming doesn't exist.
Just 30 years ago there was talk of a pending Ice Age.. so which is it? I personally think we have better things to worry about than the weather, like we really have a say in that any way..

Hello.....MOST republicans do not deny the fact of global warming, only that any efforts by mankind are the main cause or that our efforts to stem global warming will be consequential.
The Earth has undergone many ice ages over the last couple hundred-thousand years. Mankind has only existed in the short period since the last one.
BTW, the polar cap on Mars is also reducing in size indicating a climate change on that planet as well. HMMM, no influence by man can be blamed there....

I consider myself a Republican. And I happen to know much useless information so I'll give it a shot... Global warming is real. It's a natural state for the Earth in its ever moving evolution (Yes, we Republicans believe in evolution but unlike the Democrats, we don't pick and chose what to apply it to). The Earth is hot. The report issued in Paris by the most respected worldwide organization on the environment, made it clear that fuel from corn, like Gore, Obama and Hillary are proposing will actually do much more harm to the Earth.

See, that's where your wrong. Most aren't denying global warming, but most think it's a natural cycle and not a man-made, or moose fart made condition. You really need to read a bit about the subject before you go off on a tangent. Consider that we may just finally be reaching the end of the last ice age that was delayed about 15,000 years by the comet that landed in the Gulf of Mexico.

There has been much scientific evidence supporting the fact that the ice caps have melted before. The earth runs in approximately 30 years cycles of warming and cooling.....in the 1970's "scientists" were warning us of a new "ice age". they said that the earth was growing too cold. They were suggesting that we take coal soot and coat the ice caps with them so the would warm up.
I believe in global warming, what I DONT believe is that humans are the cause of it. Especially when there IS proof that the earth has warmed and cooled before.

Most republicans are open minded and will look at other views, whereas Dems just listen to a few and start acting like the sky is falling... just another way to tax you and me.
I will consider global warming when they can tell me what happened to the ice age that was suppose to happen 30 years ago.
It didn't happen, well, maybe it did and I am still frozen.

We don't deny global warming, we have doubts about its cause. Liberals want to automatically blame humans for it without examining other theories. And anyone that disagrees with the Liberal "flavor of the month" is put down.

Oh Global Warming is on the news so it MUST be true.
Better to "Know-it-all" than to only know what the liberal media is brainwashing me to believe.

They are saying it is a natural occurring event and not man made. However the speed of the melt down is interesting!
