Tom Price’s moment of climate-change silence

U.S. Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga.
U.S. Rep. Tom Price, R-Marietta, provided an inadvertent moment of levity last month on the House floor. I stumbled upon it while researching a Media Mayhem column for the Mother Nature Network. Before watching, please note two points:
1) As Creative Loafing‘s editor, I instituted a policy that an image of Ned Flanders always run instead of Price’s picture. My wisdom has been affirmed: Price’s call for prayer over a climate-change bill is just what Ned would have done. I love the fact that the person who posted this video on You Tube titled it “Okily-Dokily.”
2) Flanders’, er, Price’s claim that “accurate” predictions say dealing with climate change will cost 2 million-plus jobs is unadulterated bunkum — which only makes it funnier.
