Instapundit ‘hit a nerve’: Jonathan Chait’s defense of ‘anti-climate’ finger-pointing is hack-tastic

@instapundit @jonathanchait I think it's safe to say that Glenn hit a nerve.

The lazy anti-climate Republicans are, in some ways, as bad as the crazy ones http://t.co/XNYDXwQUt9

So first they "denied" that there was a climate, and now THEY DON'T WANT US TO HAVE ANY CLIMATE AT ALL???? #evilgop https://t.co/W9mXCaGWI4

@instapundit I think the condensed language required by Twitter's tight character limit makes it too upsetting a medium for you to use.

.@jonathanchait Really, words do matter, even on Twitter, and that's an absurd contraction — one that appeared in the article subhed, too.

@instapundit @jonathanchait "anti-AGW" would have given you four more letters. Doesn't sneer as hard, though, does it?

@instapundit @jonathanchait what does "anti-climate" mean now? Is that just sloppy prog inter-cultural short-hand?

@instapundit @jonathanchait Does he even realize that he had 24 available characters to use? And he's blaming it on a character limit? Ha!

Are you seriously trying to defend this usage? Stop trying to make "anti-climate" happen. Not going to happen. @instapundit @jonathanchait

@instapundit @jonathanchait He's, ummm, not sharp enough to notice that the subhead was also wildly wrong. #ActOnCopyEditing

@billohanlon @instapundit @jonathanchait I think he's revealing a certain worldview: he really thinks his opponents hate Earth.

@instapundit Yeah, Glen. Maybe you should start a blog where you link to articles. Think about it!

An idea so crazy it just might work! https://t.co/IkBUI1ll24
