I watched that as well and he was as usual right on point and the witness was pathetic in his non-answer. The reason he refused is that the calculation has already been done, such as it is from an accuracy perspective. If the U.S. ceased to exist from a carbon emissions standpoint it would have almost no effect on global climates. Of course 300 million of us would die of starvation, exposure and disease which for these zealots is probably an added benefit.
What his refusal to answer also prevented was Sen Kennedy pointing out to him that while they drive us toward this path of utter self destruction India, China, Russia and most of Africa will more than pick up the slack in terms of emissions. They won't follow our lead, an utterly absurd idea, because they are not so decadent, stupid and economically/scientifically illiterate enough to think decarbonization makes an ounce of sense. They will just sit by in wonder, laughing at our insanity and moving on their merry way.
Some things are so stupid that only someone with an Ivy League education will think they make sense. Needless to say when you see things like this you better understand why I hold government "experts" in such low regard. Political appointees are not our best and brightest.....quite the opposite. And far too many scientists in the bureaucracy are likewise not terribly bright.....I deal with moron scientists from EPA every day and to put it mildly, most of them could not even remotely prosper in the private sector. They are eco-fascists with a degree.
