She does not/refuses to recognize that the increasing amount of it in the atmosphere disturbs the carbon cycle and changes the climate. And that little changes can have huge effects on the environment. *sigh*
My main problem with her is how much she fucking lies (http://politifact.com/personalities/michele-bachmann/statements/). It's like she enjoys being a liar, which is rather fucked up for someone who likes to claim how uber-Christian they are. (http://www.bachmanncounseling.com/index.html) The fact that she rails against government subsidies and handouts and sucks on the government teat for farm subsidies (http://exiledonline.com/teabagger-queen-michele-bachmann-cashed-in-on-250000-in-welfare/) is pretty disgusting too. Yet, all this is forgiven and ignored because she's the Teapot Supreme, leading the Tea Caucus and deciding the Tea Party agenda in Congress.
Has anyone else had the argument thrown at them that "X number of thousand/million years ago the Earth's atmosphere had Y number of hundred/thousand percent more carbon dioxide than it does now and life was THRIVING!! The whole planet was nothing but forests! Why is carbon dioxide a bad thing? It supports life!!" Someone threw that at me on Facebook and I was like... ::blink blink:: ... block them permanently...

Congrats, lady, you're so dumb you've become pothead dumb.
