Rush Limbaugh Quotes

The argument [behind climate change] is absolute crap. However, the politics of this are tough for us. Eighty per cent of people believe climate change is a real and present danger.

Our analysis shows that, for the extreme hot weather of the recent past, there is virtually no explanation other than climate change. The deadly European heat wave of 2003, the fiery Russian heat wave of 2010 and catastrophic droughts in Texas and Oklahoma last year [2011] can each be attributed to climate change.

To count on those odds would be like quitting your job and playing the lottery every morning to pay the bills.

They will not tolerate. They cannot handle dissent. They don't want it.
