Clinton to Republicans on climate change: Not a scientist? 'Go talk to one'

Hillary Clinton has some sage advice for all those Republicans who claim they don't have the scientific expertise to address issues of climate change. Caitlin MacNeal reports: 

Clinton noted that when asked if human activity contributes to climate change, many Republican lawmakers respond by saying, "I'm not a scientist."

"The answer to that is, 'Go talk to one,'" Clinton said.

The former Secretary of State said that lawmakers need to stop letting politics get in the way of policy to address climate change, criticizing Republicans who "are under the thumb of the fossil fuel industry, and in particular the Koch brothers."

Wow, novel. Apparently, it's okay to seek the advice of experts on everything from the economy to education to the military, but when it comes to climate change, no can do!

There’s only one snag with this tip for the GOP—it actually makes sense.
