Jeb Bush Blasts 'Intellectual Arrogance' in Climate Change Debate [View all]

From: http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/jeb-bush-blasts-intellectual-arrogance-climate-change-debate-n362586

"For the people to say the science is decided on this is really arrogant, to be honest with you," he added. "It's this intellectual arrogance that now you can't have a conversation about it, even."

For fuck's sake...I thought Bush was the establishment moderate?

These people are fucking crazy. The DNC needs to bookmark this for the negative advertising blitz against this mental giant if he gets the nom.
