Is His Ignorance the Most Disgusting Feature of this Guy? Sadly, No.

I wrote a post earlier today in which I pointed out that the level of ignorance on the part of this former state senator from Pennsylvania is truly staggering.  Yet that’s not the most revolting aspect of his character.

IMO, it’s his intellectual arrogance.  He knows that there are thousands of people who have been studying the causes of global warming and the various possible ways of dealing with it since the subject of climate change came on the scene in earnest in the late 1970s.  Instead of simply learning from the scientists, like you and I do every day, he said, in essence: “I don’t give a s***.  I have invented my own ideas, even though the slowest high school student would find them laughably stupid, and I aim to foist them off as valid.”

Blatant dishonesty is far worse than ignorance, in my view.
