He let the expletive fly while lunching with journalists in Virginia where he labeled himself a skeptic, not a denier. The former Marine went on to explain that his passion over the Chevy Volt comes his desire to reduce oil imports rather than curb CO2 emissions.

Despite his motivations, GM's recent moves to green up their autos are good news for environmentalists. So, really, what does it matter what he says?
