Cathy McMorris Shitbag: GOP Will Solve The Climate Crisis With Innovation And Clean Coal And Stuff

EDIT

Still, McMorris Rodgers has made it clear that her energy policy platform won't scandalize fellow Republicans. Despite her support for hydropower and other renewable energy sources, she emphasized that she embraces an "all of the above" energy agenda — a popular position among Republicans who don't want to alienate long-standing pillars of American industry that drive local economies around the country.

"America has led the world in the development of coal, oil, natural gas, and that was a competitive advantage we enjoyed for a long period of time," McMorris Rodgers said. "It helped keep our energy rates low, and it's really been those technologies and discoveries that have helped a lot of other countries around the world."

She added, "So from my perspective, we need to build on that. We need to build on clean energy solutions, and you see where private industries are helping lead the way to move to clean energy and climate-conscious practices, so we can do it without sacrificing jobs and economic growth." At the same time, she called the Green New Deal "a top-down mandate, government takeover of the energy sector, versus really promoting the innovative and new ideas promoting clean energy moving forward."

She said Republicans have long been leaders on "clean energy solutions," even if they haven't necessarily been "branding" these solutions "as focused on the climate, or as climate solutions." Her task would simply be to make sure those efforts are better framed in the correct light.

Ed. - Ah, yes - it's not shitty, corrupt and ineffective policy that's the problem. It's the messaging. It's always The Messaging.
