Then again, Sheldon Whitehouse is a complete douchebag.
Via The Hill:
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) said Tuesday those who deny carbon dioxide emissions contribute to climate change are “one step short of insane.”
The Rhode Island Democrat made the comments at an annual energy and environment event he hosts at the Capitol.
Whitehouse said Republicans avoid talking about climate change because he said they’re aware their party’s opinion doesn’t align with popular opinion.
