Bernie does Climate Delusion and Denial Standup Jokes



Fox Business Contributor: Bernie Will Still Think Biggest Threat is Climate As He’s Being Beheaded - YouTube

Nov 16, 2015
While criticizing Bernie Sanders on his suggestion that climate change is the United State’s largest national security threat, political commentator Mark Steyn joked that the Democratic presidential candidate will still spout rhetoric about global warming even as the leader of ISIS beheads him.

“Yeah, he’s brilliant that guy,” Steyn said sarcastically during a panel on FBN’s Varney & Co. “I mean, al-Baghdadi will be sawing Bernie Sanders’ head off, and he’ll be saying as his neck is being sliced, ‘If only we’d had an emissions trading scheme.'”

As members of the panel laughed, Steyn continued, “this is insane and it shows the level of delusion and denial among the Western political leadership.”

During the CBS Democratic debate Saturday, Sanders reaffirmed his position that climate change is the greatest national security threat face the United States, telling the audience “climate change is directly related to the growth of terrorism.”
