The face of conservative ideology

From the blog of Julie Walsh, Female, comes:

Washington, DC., January 8, 2009 – It has been reported in the London press (link to CNBC.com provided) that poor old-age pensioners are having to resort to buying books at thrift shops to burn to keep warm during the prolonged bitterly cold weather in the United Kingdom.

In response to this humanitarian crisis, Freedom Action is calling on former Vice President Al Gore to join an effort to collect and airlift copies of his science fiction bestsellers to British people in dire need.

"We are collecting copies of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth, Our Choice, and Earth in the Balance and will send them to Oxfam in the UK to distribute for free to vulnerable people trying to survive the cold weather," said Myron Goebbels, Director of Freedom Action. "We call on Mr. Gore to co-operate in our effort to relieve human suffering by providing copies of his books for burning in stoves and fireplaces."

It is appropriate that Al Gore's books should be used to help keep poor people warm, Ebell explained, "since the principal reason the British government is totally unprepared to deal with the brutally cold weather is because they have fallen for the global warming myths propagated by Gore himself in his bestselling books. Burning Gore's otherwise worthless books to keep people from freezing is their highest and best use."

Julie Walsh last featured in the Myron Ebell Climate last April when she exhibited a graph of Arctic Sea Ice Extent showing how the sea had refrozen over the winter from its shocking melt the previous summer -- and therefore there was nothing to worry about.

Hey, while we're on the subject of government unpreparedness for weather events, don't ever forget the CEI's pronouncement on the disaster in New Orleans.

"It was a lack of access to cars that led tens of thousands of people to remain in the city, says Sam Kazman, head of CEI's Automobility Project. "Many people may well choose a car-free lifestyle, but the notion that government should impose it in the name of sustainability is crazy. As Hurricane Katrina showed, it can be disastrous as well."

It's useful to have a simple mind when you don't want to be frightened by the rank evil you are part of.
