At CPAC today, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) argued that climate change is a myth and doesn’t need to be addressed, noting that President Obama was cold during the inauguration.
“He talked about global warming at his inauguration, I found it ironic that the President was wearing a trench coat it was so cold but he’s talking about global warming,” Scalise said.
He also noted that a snow storm later cancelled a congressional hearing on climate change, “you can’t make this stuff up.”
Of course, climate change is actually leading to more incidences of blizzards and winter still tends to be cold.
