Hypocrisy

Aren't liberals the ones who are sooo concerned about the environment? Quotes and pic taken from several blogs and news sites....


"Inaugural revelers are lucky they didn't get fined for littering. As crowds cleared the city Tuesday, their trash covered the National Mall and Washington Monument grounds after President Barack Obama's inauguration.

They left behind plastic bottles, newspapers, food wrappers, gloves and even American flags they had been waving. Trash bins overflowed with items people tossed."



"While Washington Democrats are busy crafting ways to spend billions upon billions of tax dollars in the name of climate change the Institute for Liberty has helpfully calculated Barack Obama's massive, inaugural carbon footprint.

Their analysis finds:

Celebrities, politicians, and bigwigs using 600 private jets will produce 25,320,000 POUNDS of CO2
Personal vehicles could account for 262,483,200 POUNDS of CO2
In the parade, horses alone will produce more than 400 POUNDS of CO2
The total carbon footprint for the Inauguration will likely exceed 575 million POUNDS of CO2
It would take the average U.S. household 57,598 years to produce a carbon footprint equal to that of the new president's housewarming party"

I was waiting to hear from you regarding the inauguration!:) Watching all of the bits and pieces that I did see on Tuesday of the whole day's festivities... was ABSOLUTELY SICKENING to me! It was CRAZY watching all of those people ADORE Obama. It is actually scary to me! They act like he is GOD and that he is a miracle worker. It seems as though people are brain-washed and it makes me even sicker to see videos like the one shown on O'Reilly last night from Jay-Z singing about him being a BLACK president,etc. etc. Did you see that???

I missed that one...in fact, I didn't watch any of the inauguration coverage. His ego is incredible, but I guess you can say that about most politicians. I wonder how long it will take (if it happens at all) before his "worshipers" see him for what he really is.
