Addressing an audience in Indonesia this week, Secretary of State John Kerry declared that climate change “ranks right up there” with other global concerns such as terrorism, poverty, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
Did John Kerry really compare climate change to weapons of mass destruction? Oh yes he did … http://t.co/2aP1vGP525

Yes, yes he did.
Sec.State Kerry: climate-change may be the world's "most fearsome" weapon of mass destruction, compares deniers to "flat earthers"

While many pointed out the hypocrisy of Kerry flying around the world to warn of the dangers of carbon emissions, Newt Gingrich wondered if Kerry is completely out of touch with reality.
If kerrey believes his global warming speech it is a terrifying prospect for American policy. He is making policy in a fantasy world

Does kerrey really believe global warming more dangerous than north Korean and iranian nukes? More than Russian and Chinese nukes? Really? ?
