A couple of people complaining? It’s almost as if the entire Left isn’t used to being accused of racism every single day, or being dismissed as “anti-science.” While conservatives have had to build up a tolerance to such slander, liberals needed a sort of online group therapy session to work through “Wheel of Fortune” host Pat Sajak’s confounding tweet late Monday night:

Conservatives seemed to recognize a parody of hollow liberal outrage when they saw it.

However, members of the Church of Climate Change didn’t see anything funny about it.
Pat Sajak works with words for a living but doesn't seem to know what they mean.

Pat Sajak says ppl concerned abt Climate Change are unpatriotic racists. Who only care about cleaning up pollution & saving human lives.

When I saw Pat Sajak trending on Twitter I instantly though, "Oh no, he died!" Then I just found out it was his brain.
