"CO2 is odorless, colorless, tasteless – it’s not a threat to human health in terms of being exposed to it. We create it as we talk back and forth. So, and if you go beyond that, on a net basis, there’s ample evidence that warming generically — however it is caused — is a net benefit to mankind."
-- Joe Barton R-TX
This ranks up there with 'a series of tubes'...
"CO2 is odorless, colorless, tasteless" - as is Sarin.
"it’s not a threat to human health in terms of being exposed to it" - a 100% concentration of CO2 will produce death in a little under four minutes.
"We create it as we talk back and forth." - Congress could hardly be considered harmless.
"So, and if you go beyond that, on a net basis" - Oranges are a citrus fruit grown in hot climates, therefore this potato....
"however it is caused" - <wink, fingergun to donors>
"is a net benefit to mankind." - It'll certainly help with overpopulation eventually.
