Ben Carson couldn't find the evidence for human-caused climate change, so Jerry Brown sent it to him

As the least experienced anti-government outsiders rise in the GOP polls, neurosurgeon Ben Carson is riding the wave, along with Trump and Fiorina. Yesterday in California, Carson said this:

I know there a lot of people who say 'overwhelming science,' but then when you ask them to show the overwhelming science, they never can show it. There is no overwhelming science that the things that are going on are man-caused and not naturally caused.

Gimme a break.


Don't worry, Dr. Carson! Because California governor Jerry Brown has heard your call, and can actually show you the overwhelming science! In fact, Brown sent Carson a letter containing a flash drive, with a copy of the latest IPCC Fifth Assessment Report.

Unless, of course, he's really not interested in basing policy positions on facts and science.

Ah Jerry, if you were only ten years younger, you'd make a hell of a president.

He is a black man who speaks against blacks. The RW loves that...think Thomas, West, Cosby, etc.
