Hill: Former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) said on Sunday science behind climate change arguments is far from settled. This is what bothers me about this debate the idea that the science is settled, he told host Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Anytime you hear a scientist say, the science is settled, thats political science and not real science, Santorum added. No scientist in his right mind would ever say the science is settled.

Associated Press: When Germany last hosted a summit of the world`s leading industrialized democracies, Chancellor Angela Merkel was a relative newcomer on the world stage.
