Super-sciencey Bernie Sanders, who once said that female oragams were the secret to avoid cervical cancer, wants Americans to believe what he has to say about global warming. It’s “devastating,” he says and we must act!
For those of us who believe in science, you simply cannot ignore what the scientific community is saying almost unanimously.

Don’t “ignore” science!
Curious, though. Sanders is also an outspoken critics of GMO foods:

Does this mean — since Sanders believes in science and all — that he’ll stop his anti-GMO rhetoric? Tweeters want to know:

@BernieSanders except for the scientific consensus on GMOs, right?

Even President Obama’s fake science adviser Bill Nye has seen the light on GMOs:
Proof he's the Science Guy: Bill Nye is changing his mind about GMOs http://t.co/SnXVQ0wDoZ _ also: Russia has banned all GMO's
