Think Progress » Daniels: Climate Science Is ‘Dubious,’ ‘Extreme Measures’ Advocated By ‘Zealots’ Won’t Address Global Warming

But yesterday on C-Span, [Gov. Mitch Daniels (R-IN)] weighed in on the science and it appears that he comes down on the side of the global warming deniers:

DANIELS: In terms of climate change, I think that everyone would be well advised to take a substantial time out. There’s been nothing but dubious news about the science of all this now for about a year, including apparent scientific wrongdoing. Meanwhile, we’re left with a situation where even if the zealots had their way, and the most extreme measures were taken, by their own computer models, we don’t move the world thermometer at all.
