Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney seems to be on the campaign trail again, telling a gathering in Iowa that while he thinks global warming is real and a problem, he hopes skeptics of man-made global warming are right.
“He said it’s not enough for Americans to keep their own carbon emissions in check when much of the rise in greenhouse gases globally is coming from countries such as China and India,” reports the Des Moines Register.
The former Republican presidential candidate has not had a lot to say on global warming in the past. During the 2012 election, neither Romney nor President Barack Obama spoke a lot on global warming. In fact, Obama took the time to defend his record on oil and natural gas drilling against attacks from Romney.
“We have increased oil production to the highest levels in 16 years,” Obama said in a 2012 presidential debate. “Natural gas production is the highest it’s been in decades. We have seen increases in coal production and coal employment. That’s why we doubled clean — clean energy production like wind and solar and biofuels.”

just what we need, another RINO...not
Politics is better than science, facts, and reality all put together!
Isn't that neat?
I'm sure many on here so not believe in global warming!
The more he talks the less I like him.
Sarah Palin for Prez, she has more balls than any of the names I've heard that are thinking about running.
Bye, bye Mr. Romney. If you can't get beyond believing in the lie, you may not be ready for the Presidency. Need someone with more common sense...
