The hits just keep on coming. From CBS News:
Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry said Wednesday morning that he does not believe in global warming and suggested that the science behind it is grounded in scientists manipulating data for financial gain. The Texas governor was appearing at a New Hampshire breakfast event with business leaders Wednesday morning when he said "a substantial number of scientists has manipulated data to keep the money rolling in," according to New Hampshire Union Leader editorial page editor Drew Cline. Perry added that "the issue of global warming has been politicized," according to Cline, and argued that America should not spend billions of dollars addressing "a scientific theory that has not been proven."
How long has he been running? Five days?
