David Letterman On Global Warming: “We’re Dead Meat”

Filed under: books, television — lori @ 3:35 pm

David Letterman recently hosted author Thomas Friedman who was promoting his book on Climate Change Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why we need a green revolution–And how it can renew America. Dave had a lot to say about the topic and worked himself into a full rant, which called for alternative forms of energy and blamed the Republicans for their lack of leadership.  Though Friedman’s book is flavored with hope and calls for a revolution, Letterman says we’re “too late” and “dead meat”.  Watch the video below to see him go off as only he can.

Billy Crystal And David Letterman Spoof The WE Campaign

Filed under: video, web — michael @ 9:32 am

The WE Campaign has produced several television ads featuring notables such as the Reverend Al Sharpton and Pat Robertson putting aside their differences and coming together to fight climate change. Like everything else that’s fair game in the world of PSAs, it was only a matter of time before someone decided to spoof the concept.

Enter Billy Crystal and David Letterman sitting on a beach and discussing their differences. Let’s just say that it doesn’t end up working out in the end — especially when it comes to paying for sex.
