Today I get to out-intellectual-snob George Will
Not to go all “George Will” on George Will, but his latest climate change denialist headline about us all being “Cassandras” is funny as hell. Cassandra is a figure from Greek mythology who was given the gift of being able to see the future. But she was also cursed, so that no one would believe her, even though she was always right. So George Will, who prides himself on being a bit of a literary and intellectual snob, just tried to mock our views on global warming by comparing us to someone whose warnings always end up being true.
