Still one of the best lines of the year, from Jeffrey Sachs, of The Earth Institute:
The idea that the Republicans are for the billionaires and the Democrats are for the common man is quaint but outdated. It's more accurate to say that the Republicans are for Big Oil while the Democrats are for Big Banks.
This idea does explain why GOP heavyweights have made opposition to the very idea of global warming a litmus test for its candidates.
