Your special report on global warming [April 3] was thoroughly terrifying, for which I thank you. For too long has this issue been casually dismissed as a problem to be dealt with in the future. Why fret about a seemingly distant catastrophe when there exists a plethora of world-destroying crises to be worried about?

But the show remains Sutherland’s in the end, as Kazar appears too infrequently to co-opt the film...

Card, a frequent guest at Camp David and a member of the "Hundred Degree Club" of hot-weather runners at Bush's ranch, talked about what a privilege it was to work in the White House. He walked around the conference room and thanked everyone, then strolled through the plane to thank the crew and other staff and agents...
