GOP presidential candidate Rick Perry told New Hampshire voters Wednesday that he does not believe in manmade global warming, calling it a scientific theory that has not been proven.
“I think we’re seeing almost weekly, or even daily, scientists that are coming forward and questioning the original idea that manmade global warming is what is causing the climate to change,” the Texas governor said on the first stop of a two-day trip to the first-in-the-nation primary state.
He said some want billions or trillions of taxpayer dollars spent to address the issue, but he added: “I don’t think from my perspective that I want to be engaged in spending that much money on still a scientific theory that has not been proven and from my perspective is more and more being put into question.”
Yeah, so he’s a Republican.

For the Sake of Science 
“Yeah, so he’s a Republican.”
…and ant-science like most of them. This numb-skull got a lot of C’s and D’s in school, so he must be extra-special.
You can’t be a viable Republican candidate in pre-primary season without establishing your anti-science credentials.
It used to puzzle me why any rational or skeptical people EVER voted Republlican.
“Well, I’m in a really high tax bracket.” Ahh, now it all makes sense….
