Former Bush speechwriter David Frum details his showdown with citizen Streisand in his new book THE RIGHT MAN, hitting racks Tuesday.
"So tell me: Why did Bush flip-flop on emissions standards?" Streisand asked Frum during a heated argument about Global Warming.
"I know why he did it," she continued. "It was because of all the campaign contributions he got from Enron."
When Streisand learned what Frum did for a living, she released a disdainful "Ewwwwwww."
'"The snows on top of Mount Kilimanjaro are melting. There's no disagreement about that," Streisand argued.
Frum: "Look, I don't know about that. I'm no kind of expert on climate change. But, Miss Streisand, I strongly suspect that neither are you. For you, this is religion, not science."
Streisand looked at Frum with "utter revulsion."
"I know what I'm talking about. I give a lot of money to environmental causes," she huffed and left Frum standing.
