Video: Boehner on absurd EPA CO2 regulation
Politico:
House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said that concern over carbon dioxide gasses was being overblown.
“The idea that carbon dioxide is a carcinogen that is harmful to our environment, it is almost comical,” Boehner said. “Every time we exhale, we exhale carbon dioxide. Every cow in the world, when they do what they do, you have more carbon dioxide.”
Asked by ABC’s George Stephanopoulos whether or not this meant that greenhouse gas reduction was not an issue Republicans thought needed to be addressed, Boehner replied, “I think it is an issue, the question is what is the proper answer and what is the responsible answer”
