Related: About this forumPapantonio: Republicans Cut Critical National Security Funding
Back in 2005, when George W. Bush finally admitted the reality of man-made climate change, it was an embarrassment for the extreme fringe of the GOP. And it had to be extremely uncomfortable for all of the letter-to-the-editor writers who use newspapers to tell us that global warming is a hoax.
But the worst was yet to come for conservatives. In October, the Department of Defense listed climate change as a top national security threat. And in all honesty, theyve said that for the last eight years. Yet Republicans like Ted Cruz, James Inhofe, and Marco Rubio are all-in on the idea that we simply dont have a problem here.

potential conflicts because masses of people don't have enough food or water where they live because of rapidly changing weather patterns - sounds like the potential for BIG profits for the MIC

Brought to you by the Conservative SCOTUS corporate toadies. You know, the ones that stole the 2000 Presidential Election.
