Andrew Sullivan Stops Scoffing

Most right-wing commentators (such as George Will) still refuse to face the facts on our changing climate, so it’s worth pointing out an exception to the rule.

Andrew Sullivan also happens to be my favorite right-wing commentator, partly for his relative open-mindedness, but mostly for his sheer ability to write. The cold fury with which he described the American torturing at Abu Ghraib and other military installations set a high standard for on-line commentary, I think. Few others could make the public even pay attention to the horror.

And so when–for the first time, as far as I know–Sullivan actually points to some facts on climate change, I want to give him credit. Check out this worthy Quote of the Day, which includes a link to a discussion of climate change…in the Wall Street Journal!

Maybe it’s not too late, after all.
