On Monday evening, Pat Sajak, conservative-minded host of Wheel of Fortune, shocked the Twittersphere with the following:
I now believe global warming alarmists are unpatriotic racists knowingly misleading for their own ends. Good night.

Within 24 hours, news of this tweet and the subsequent outrage it received from global warming believers made headlines in major newspapers. And, by Tuesday afternoon the #WheelofFortune hashtag was ablaze in full climate-change battle mode. Will calls for his firing and boycotts of the show damage Pat's career? Probably not - but the hysteria is fun to watch.The Truthers:
Boycott #wheeloffortune !! :P http://t.co/hzDzksFBDX

If climate change concerns you, #WheelofFortune's Pat Sajak says you're an "unpatriotic racist." Huh? Boycott his show.

Boycott #WheelOfFortune just lost a lot of viewers & advertisers, congrats @patsajak

The Deniers:
A liberal boycott of #WheelOfFortune won't dent the ratings. Liberals are too dumb to get voter IDs, they can't solve word puzzles.

Next on the libs to-do list: Demand Pat Sajak be fired and take a 'rehabilitation' class for not supporting a hoax #WheelOfFortune

Who knew just watching #WheelOfFortune could be a new way to anger liberals. Easy Work. :) @Bidenshairplugs

So, what did Pat have to say in response to the backlash from his Twitter trolling?
Sometimes it's fun to poke a stick in a hornets' nest just to hear the buzzing.
