Bill Nye schools Marsha Blackburn on Climate: Stop denying and start leading

[LongTomH]

Bill Nye “The Science Guy” implored Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) on Sunday to stop wasting time by denying that the climate was changing and to start leading the charge to do something about it.

Nye began his debate with Blackburn on NBC’s Meet the Press by applauding President Barack Obama’s call to create a $1 billion fund to prepare for climate change.

What I’ve always said, we need to do everything all at once,” Nye explained. “And this is an opportunity for the United States to innovate, to be the world leader in new technologies.”

Blackburn, however, shot back that Nye was just an “actor,” while she was a member of Congress.

1. started his career at Boeing as a Mechanical Engineer...

hardly "just an actor"

2. she did say he was an engineer and an actor

But engineers make decisions on facts and reproducible actions or events. Congressmen and women get to say anything they want to get votes. She has the smile mastered.

3. Agreed...as an Engineer...I'd say he knows more about it than SHE does...

much to her dismay.....She was a personal style coach before SHE became a Congresswoman....so that smile is just as empty as her heart is black.

4. There are no words available to say

how much I despise that snarky, ten cents a dance, frozen bleached hair, smart-assed look she has on her face creature. A six month old baby could replace her in Congress and do a better job. She helps make Tennessee sound more back-woods than anyone else.

5. But she's too stupid to be a member of Congress

...and that's the problem.
