Ted Cruz compares climate change activists to ‘flat-Earthers.’ Where to begin?

There's another thread, started earlier, at DU about this, but I can't find it now. I'll move this over there when I do find the thread.

Ted Cruz compares climate change activists to ‘flat-Earthers.’ Where to begin?

[MANative]

1. And, apparently, himself to Galileo. Delusional, in a nearly clinical sense. The man needs help. n/t

2. Most of what he says just makes you shake your head. And he supposedly graduated with honors

from Harvard. I think Harvard owes us an explanation.

3. Ted Cruz IS a flat earther

He thinks the world was created in a week when science, via radioactive dating, dated the Earth to be several billion years old.

He thinks he's God himself, but you know guys with messiah complexes are really all about themselves and their real master, Old Nick.

That's just for starters. I could write an entire book about him and still not cover everything wrong with this lout.

4. Recommendation On How To Begin: Inslee/Warren 2016

Hello All DUers, I think trying to force Liz to run for POTUS is a mistake. How about this- who could be a more perfect POTUS candidate than Jay Inslee? If possible, Liz might be able to be persuaded to accept the VP slot, giving her eight (hopefully) years to sharpen her skills at "bumping bellies with the big boys" on the world stage. As we all know, there are some very unstable/unsavory characters with which the U.S. has to deal with, if only because the other option ( if there is one) can be much worse. I fear a lot of the American public is weary of political dynasties, except of course the Tea Party. Bush is a real threat, even though his brother was a total disgrace. Hillary has got way too much baggage, fairly or unfairly, and is too easy pickings for the likes of Fox News and OneAmerica. Let some Tea Party moron from Faux News or OneAmerica try to get over on Gov. Inslee, it will never happen. This guy has the look of a winner, and his policies are so in synch with everything true FDR/JFK style libs believe in. I don't see how he could lose, it could create such a coat tail landslide it might even pave our way out of Mitch McConnell's style of gridlock/ my way or the highway style of governanace. I am certainly no misogynist, Liz would be great, but if we can learn one thing from the Obama tenure is people need more experience before they are thrown into this pit of vipers called U.S. politics. Wishful thinking? Cruz's campaign will die under the avalanche of facts that come out, it is the more reserved, but none the less toxic to progress, "moderates" like Bush that are the real threat, IMHO.

5. Hmmmm, I compare Ted Cruz

to a big pile of dog shit. Except dog shit does have benefit and it has some fertilization properties
