This is just insulting. Because pediatric neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson doesn’t believe California Governor Jerry Brown’s hype on global warming, he’s a “science denier”? Just go away, governor:
Jerry Brown sends @RealBenCarson a polite letter—then ruins it w/ a tweet smugly calling Carson a "science denier." http://t.co/47vhlroW1T

Here’s a copy of the letter and tweet from Brown:

Maybe Gov. Brown would like to debate Carson on “science”? That we’d love to see:

@seanmdav One might propose that Ben Carson has forgotten more science than @JerryBrownGov ever thought he knew.

@seanmdav @rdbrewer4 Brain surgeons tend to work on gut instinct.

@Jeff_Jacoby That’s a startlingly stupid statement, given Carson is a neurosurgeon. https://t.co/N5MLMrlH34

@Jeff_Jacoby @RealBenCarson So a career pol knows more about science than a neurosurgeon?

@Jeff_Jacoby @tan123 @RealBenCarson I suspect the last time MoonBeam Jerry took a Science course was in like Grade Seven!

@Jeff_Jacoby @tan123 @RealBenCarson Does Jerry know California has had droughts before? pic.twitter.com/NUacHg6JkO
