    Washington Times: Rep. Massie, an MIT grad, questions Obama's global-warming claims

    Just....awesome....

    Rep. Thomas Massie challenged President Obama to roll out the proof that humans have played a hand in climate change.

    Mr. Massie, Kentucky Republican, said he was "disappointed" that the president in his second inaugural address blamed droughts on "human activity" and accused some of "denying the evidence of scientists."

    "As somebody with a science-type background, I took offense at that," Mr. Massie said during a panel meeting billed as "Conversations With Conservatives." "I would challenge him to show us the linkage — the undeniable linkage — between droughts and the change of weather, and some kind of human activity."

    At that point, Rep. Raul Labrador, Idaho Republican, chimed in: "It is not like you are an MIT graduate."

    "Oh, wait, you are, sorry," Mr. Labrador quipped.

    Mr. Massie, a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, responded with a shrug of the shoulders and a smile.

    This is because Rep. Massie, an MIT grad, has a brain.

    Nice to see him getting some credit for it.

    Massie owns.

    Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas Jefferson
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Well as expected they attack him by saying he's an engineer and not a meteorologist. Well, after those 23000 or so scientist signed Ron Paul's letter claiming no such link I'm sure Engineer Massie can find plenty of qualified support.
