Last night, all those who like to mix their religion with politics in an attempt to discover science got to feel good about themselves for a few minutes. The intent was a show of global unity in the desire to tinker with the Earth’s natural heating and cooling cycles. The result was, in fact, a demonstration of weakness and global gullibility. Almost as brilliantly as the lights blazed in my house, headlines blazed across the Internet:
“Lights go out across planet for Earth Hour”
“World switches off to save planet in Earth Hour”
“Cities switch off for Earth Hour”
Unfortunately for a great many people living in the world of reality, nobody told Ma Nature about the event and she produced headlines like:
“Kansas City Airport Closed Due to Snow Storm”
“Severe weather strikes Plains, Gulf Coast”
“Cold weather eases flood threat in Fargo”
After experiencing one of the coldest winters on the planet in decades, including snow in places like Louisiana, Mississippi and California, I’m convinced most planet-saving ‘Greenies’ must be sporting glass stomachs or they’d keep bumping into things. They not only continue their flight of fancy in the face of truths their own senses can’t deny but are completely missing the more dangerous implications of government using climate change as a mechanism for tyrannical control of our personal lives. That’s why the hoax was perpetuated in the first place!
I think the best shtick of the evening was CNN promoting their around the world coverage of “Earth Hour” events. Wait a minute — doesn’t it take an enormous amount of energy to generate such coverage? Well, I suppose it’s no worse than ‘Guru Gore’ flying around on a private jet to rant about our over use of fossil fuels. Instead of worrying about man made global warming , we need to start thinking about man made global fortunes and the losses of liberty resulting from our blindness!
You know, mushrooms like it in the dark, too — and are usually fed a diet of the same stuff our little planet savers have been swallowing.
