Read it an weep Americans !!! This is why we, as Americans, have suffered under this current political regime for the last eight years. This is why we have had our rights taken away. This is why our own government feels it has the right to spy on us and track us like lab rats. Thank You Elian Gonzalez. Thank you to the Cuban population who have turned Miami into a third world Banana Republic. At least we won’t have to house one more non-english speaking criminal with the last name Gonzalez in our prisons. Here’s your justice…
And will the last person who speaks English in Miami please remember to take the American flag with them when they leave.
I had to rub me eyes when the PSA (public service announcement) aired for Al Gore’s nonprofit agency, the Alliance for Climate Protection, which featured the Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Pat Robertson sitting on a leather couch on Virginia Beach discussing the fact that although they have been on the opposite sides of the political spectrum but there is one issue that has brought this unlikely duo together. No, it wasn’t “divine intervention” that was binding force between this salt and pepper evangelical odd couple, nor was it the love of money, although I’m certain they both filled their pockets with non-profit funds from their charade. The PSA had the two radical forces pitching a tent for global warming.
While Reverend Al Sharpton and Pat Robertson have different views on most issues, when it comes to the urgency of protecting the planet, they agree.
“I am honored that Al Gore asked me to be a part of this campaign urging people to take care of the planet,” Robertson said on the Christian Broadcasting Network. “It’s just common sense that we ought to be good stewards of the environment and do everything within our power to protect this fragile planet that we all live on.”
At the taping of this clip on Virginia Beach, the two joked and prayed together. If these polar opposites can come together on this important and moral issue, why can’t you?
Please join more than one million others who know it will take all of us coming together to solve the climate crisis.
If you haven’t already seen or heard about it, here’s the ad that was airing on CNN this morning.
Regardless of the good (or bad) intentions behind the Alliance for Climate Protection’s need to produce such bipolar advertisements (other incarnations include Nancy Pelosi and Newt Gingrich on that same leather couch), the concept is totally flawed and whoever thought this psychological mind-phuck should have their head examined.
While it might be easy to understand the logic of featuring well known politicians or washed up musicians (another PSA will supposedly have Toby Keith and the Dixie Chicks), I fail to see the logic in pitting two of America’s most hated pablam puking “salvation hustlers” together to discuss anything except how they have used religion to divide and conquer while padding their wallets. For my two cents, thi stlye of PSA will make anybody who as been on the fence regarding global warming re-think the whole issue. Much less, it makes Al Gore’s promotion of the Alliance for Climate Protection look like a cleverly crafted non-profit organization designed to pilfer tree huggers for donations instead of buying a new pair of Birkenstocks.
President Bush, perhaps one of the most unpopular presidents in American history, was on hand in Washington, DC to throw out the first pitch to start the Washington Nationals’ baseball season and inaugurate the Nationals’ new stadium. The President throwing out the first pitch” ceremony dates back to the days of William H. Taft who threw out the first pitch for Opening Day in 1910. While the ceremony was not suprising, what was suprising was the crowd’s reaction to Bush as he was introduced and walked out to the pitcher’s mound. Bush was greeted by a sea of boo’s and jeers and the entire stadium’s mood seemed to shift from nervous excitement to unprecedented disapproval.
Bush tossed the pitch high and away and walked off the field as the crowd contiuned making cat calls at him as he left. Maybe it’s the fact he was wearing a Nationals jersey when Bush is known to be a fan and former co-owner of the Texas Rangers ? Maybe the Nationals fans feel they’ve already had enough bad luck and were worried President Bush is going to jinx their new baseball stadium?
Update(s):
1.) The Nationals won the ball game (3-2) against the Atlanta Braves. Nat’s fans were in a joyous celebration realizing this victory over the Braves would be one of the few reasons Nat’s fans would have to celebrate this season.
2.) President Bush, despite all the pressure on him, did deliver a pretty decent pitch for an old guy. Maybe he should have considered a career in Major League Baseball.
3.) A video has been made available here: Bush Opening Day
