“Just to follow up on the eloquent 1-minute speech by my friend, Doug LaMalfa, that it is extraordinary to think that the President of the United States--some say he is the leader of the free world--would actually say publicly and, even worse, at a conference of world leaders that, in effect, the worst blow we could hit ISIS with is for the leaders to come together on climate change? It is hard to believe the leader of the free world would make such a statement. Maybe it was just something that was given to him to read and he read, maybe it was in a teleprompter, or maybe he didn't have time to think about what he was saying. Because I have talked to too many people in all parts of the world who have dealt directly with radical Islamist terrorists, and they make clear that radical Islamist terrorists know nothing and respect nothing but power. Incredible. Just incredible. Growing up, it would have been akin to bullies beating up and taking from smaller students on the playground and the teacher gathering all the students and other teachers together and saying, ``I am going to teach the bullies a lesson by just ignoring them and reading you a lovely story from our library.'' Who wouldn't understand that the next day the bullies would be beating people up again and robbing again? It is incredible. Such insanity followed a terrible event, a shooting in Colorado Springs. As a judge, a former judge, a former prosecutor, the man that did this needs to be punished.…”
