Sam Donaldson blasts George Will’s climate denial
This Week’s roundtable, right-wing columnist George Will mocked the Nobel Peace committee for awarding Al Gore the Peace Prize, saying that all Gore does is engage in “hyperbole.” Will continued to argue that there is no “planetary crisis,” until Sam Donaldson of ABC News interrupted him:

Now if you and Sen. Inhofe want to continue to stick your heads in the sand, I’m going to make it out. I’m old enough and I’ll will probably get out of here before the earth collapses. But I have grandchildren, George.

Will also stated that just one percent of the American public consider global warming their top concern. Donaldson then pointed out that “not long ago, the vast majority of the American people endorsed the strike against Iraq too. You telling me now that people haven’t gotten on to this problem, as they should, is not to say that the problem does not exist.”

1. The only reason this isn't our #1 concern is because * has f*cked up so many other things.
Is it okay to say "f*cked" in a subject line?

I was so happy to see someone on a Sunday morning show that gets it. Sam Donaldson rocks.
