The trouble with political talk shows

Host: What do you think we ought to do about global warming?

Republican Analyst: We have to get rid of Obama. I don't believe in global warming, but if I did it would be his fault. When we get a Republican president he will convene a panel of industrialist billionaires to prove global warming is a fraud once and for all.

Democratic Analyst: Jobs, jobs, jobs. Put people to work in the clean energy industry and we will solve our global warming problem and our employment problem. Unfortunately, my Republican colleague understands neither.
