Who is this harridan...

Asked about climate change in advance of her upcoming speech at an energy summit, she said:

"Everybody has an opinion on it, you know, and I probably don't believe that it's man-made. I believe that, you know, that weather and certain elements are controlled maybe by different things."

Yes, and everybody has an opinion on whether you should bathe your cat. Difficult to believe that this is a quote from the governor of a US state, but then I grew up with governors like Luther Hodges and Terry Sanford and Mark Hatfield and G. Mennen Williams and George Romney and Averell Harriman and Nelson Rockefeller and Christian Herter and Earl Warren and Pat Brown and Bill Scranton and other people who had brains and spoke the English language.

Should people like this even be speaking at an energy summit? Imagine if we had put people like Paul Ryan on the team that won the race to produce the first atomic bomb. Or put Todd Aiken in charge of research at Johns Hopkins.
