You said The Words! That’s step one in the ten step program to get you past your denial of anthropogenic climate change. Good job!

Highly reminiscent of the walking-back done by the bigots in Talibandiana. “No, this alleged religious freedom law isn’t intended to legalize discrimination. In fact, it has no point whatsoever. Gay, gay, gay. See, I said it three times. Had I simultaneously clicked my heels together, I’d have lifted myself off the ground.”

Actually, I would have immediately turned to one of his aides and asked if he or she can say it too.

The first rule in climate change denial is you don’t talk about climate change denial.

Can they say “Climate Change” if they pretend to cough at the same time?

Steverson has permission to “lie for the Lord” in this case.

Saying it three times in succession is not the same thing as discussing it. He’s simply being coy. I’d be a whole lot more impressed if he had expressed concern that some state officials had the mistaken impression that such discussions were banned, if it’s really true that there is no such ban.

“Climate change. Climate change. Climate change.”
And then Lord VoldeScott appeared like Beetlejuice and caused unhappiness and mayhem for all.

Teabag Taqiya.
What is banned is a Florida official cannot warn citizens that half the state will be underwater if nothing is done about Climate Change caused by Man Made Global Warming.

"But certainly, climate change is always happening. It’s always changing,”
Now that it’s undeniable that the climate is changing noticeably, that comment has become a standard dodge. Sure, the climate is always changing, but seldom so rapidly over the entire globe as it’s changing now. Scientists have a good idea of what caused major rapid climate shifts in the past, and they have a good idea of what’s causing the current worldwide change: anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions.

So the governor gave him permissions to say the words out of context in order to attempt to quash this story. Big deal. I’ll give them credit when he states that climate change is real, it is caused by humans, and it will render the state of Florida uninhabitable within 100 years if we don’t do anything about it. You know, the facts.

Probably was told to say it by Scott to try and deflect.
He’ll need to introduce the phrase “global warming” into his future remarks because it is the warming that is the problem, the climate will always change.
When this gent got back to his office I bet his phone was in full melt down mode.
“Jonathan, Gov Scott’s on line one and is waiting to speak with you on this “Climate Revision Thing” we aren’t supposed to mention.”
He, heh (chuckle) Governor skull
The qustion now, is did he tap his ruby sliipers together three times as well?
