Global warming

The current version has the following sentence under "announcement":

On August 17, 2011, Perry said that he belives that global warming hasn't been caused by humans and if he becomes president he will not support the United States spending money on things to help prevent global warming.

This has nothing to do with his announcement to run for President. It should go in a new section, with more statements describing his political views on various topics. The12thMan (talk) 18:58, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perry does not believe there is valid scientific proof of anthropogenic global warming. He has said several times that there is no scientific consensus on the issue.[183] In a September 7, 2007, speech to California Republicans, Perry said, "Virtually every day another scientist leaves the global warming bandwagon. ... But you won't read about that in the press because they have already invested in one side of the story."[184] Perry has stated that he feels that there are "a substantial number of scientists who have manipulated data so that they will have dollars rolling in to their projects".[185] Perry's views were criticized for their inaccuracy; surveys showed that more that 97% of climate scientists believed that global warming was anthropogenic.

If it's in the other article, then there is no reason to duplicate it here. It's not about his Campaign - it belongs in the other article with regard to his political positions. Morphh (talk) 19:21, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear why this was removed ... "Rick Perry suggested global warming is a hoax"

Rick Perry suggested global warming is a hoax (Global Warming Hoax).[1] from CBS News not a blog. 216.250.156.66 (talk) 18:53, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That content is presented on his article on his opinion for climate change. Also, it's not a statement he made, so you're taking someones words (opinion) and stating it as fact. It's better to present what Perry said, not what others suggest he said. Morphh (talk) 19:08, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not Too Classy of a Quote

"Perry's performances in the GOP debates received generally poor reviews from the media with Brit Hume of Fox News stating that Perry "really did throw up all over himself" in his third debate.[15]"

So that's the quote you're going to choose? Really? If the reviews are "generally" poor as stated, perhaps you could find a more tasteful quote for this trend? Just a thought. Thanks122.26.60.62 (talk) 11:14, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
