“I’m not an expert on climate science.” This is the excuse by which some politicians “justify” their denial/doubts re the vast preponderance of scientific evidence of climate change. Unfortunately, they limit this line of “reasoning” to the one topic. Just imagine…
“My mechanic told me I needed a new carburetor but since I have no training in auto mechanics I doubted what he said and simply left his shop, my car coming to a dead halt in the middle of the Mojave desert that blazing August afternoon.”
“My dentist urged me to approve an implant supported bridge but having never gone to dental school, I was skeptical and left his office. Within three weeks I was sipping breakfast through a straw.”
“My plumber told me I needed a septic tank backflow preventer but since I know nothing about plumbing I doubted his conclusion. He shrugged his shoulders and left. The next day, there was shit everywhere!!”
“The pediatric cardiologist was emphatic in his utter certainty that our little Tiffany needed immediate emergency surgery on her aorta, but, hell, I’m no doctor so I said we’ll just wait and see. Please send flowers.”
