The hotel has already pledged allegiance to Gaia in their name. I want to know when we can get the Pagan Left in government to stop mentioning Al Gore’s Bible.

Stupid question...but living here in Germany, they have some of THE BEST flowing toilets I’ve ever seen. Yet they’re supposedly so environmentally conscious. Figure that out.

They'll also find the Gaia equipped with waterless urinals, solar lighting and recycled paper

so, a rainy day spent in your room at the Gaia is dark, smells like piss, has lousy kleenex, and only one square of toilet paper because the only other guest is Cheryl Crow.

I’ll bet the low flow toilet would have problems with that book stuck in it! Front desk?... can you send housekeeping to my room...

It's a hip and trendy thing to do

And it's next year's bell bottoms. Everyone will be laughing and mocking it.

You live in Germany? Then you must know, when it comes to hygiene, all other concerns get second place!

And when someone expels greenhouse gases, be sure to say, “Gore bless you”.

If it’s yellow, let it mellow.

If it’s brown, flush it down.

Do the Gaia types take any showers, or do they go for that earthy smell so common amongst the treehugging crowd?

The Low Flow was a good idea that failed. I just hate the fact that lawmakers didn't care that they don't work and waste more water.

They could feel better about themselves for "caring", that was all that was important. Same thing going on with Global Warming Credit nonsense.

I just replaced both of my low-flows with manly old 3 gal. models. Love ‘em.

``It's a hip and trendy thing to do and one that's actually good for the planet,'' he said.

IF you're a guilt-drive lefty lonnie and believe everything the Goracle spews, then maybe...but hip? Not even 40 years ago would it be "hip"! (Maybe he's a time traveler from the past?)

Isn’t leisure travel a destructive business when you really think about it from the ‘wacko perspective? Shouldn’t we all stay at home?

Does this hotel allow more than, say, 10 squares of toilet paper per guest per week?

The local sewer guys have loved low flow toilets. They’ve seen their business go up markedly.

There are sinks and mirrors in every office and every floor of every building. Hygiene is well and good, and very much alive...but let me tell you a good portion of the populace is DIRTY.

The latest liberal religion (tomorrow it could be “global cooling”) replacing the bible. To be quite frank, I wouldn`t care what religion replaces hotel rooms, but this religion of “Gorebull warming” is the most dangerous of all as it`s only intent is to destroy world economies.

Five years later and I`m still waiting for one certifiable, undeniable, one scintilla of one iota of proof that anything even resembling global warming exists from the composition of the atmosphere, never mind that it is man made. Yes it`s quite possible the earth may be warming, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the atmosphere and certainly nothing to do with CO2 emissions from humans.

Liberals like Gore would have the world believe that an atmosphere like earth which is composed of 0.0383% CO2, which can literally be read as “zero point zero”, can have such a tremendous effect on the entire earth as to melt the polar ice caps and kill us all.

Quite ironic he should think this way but ignore a bigger threat when he was VP, such as global terror. A bunch of psycho Muslims who have been attacking literally every country on earth for the past 40 years, but to him that is the least of our concerns.

Is there no one out there with any kind of visibility who can just raise a huge middle finger to this absolute buffoon of all that is buffoonish? This guy is biggest schmuck alive today, hands down. Nobody can beat this guy, nobody even comes close, nobody is even in the same room, the same building, the same planet, the same solar system when it comes to schmuckishness. He is absolutely the all time Champion, and I pray to God 50 years from now, no....make that even 10 years from now when it is found that the atmosphere is still of the same composition as it is now, that he is exposed for the true ass that he is in every history book printed. “Once upon a time there was this doofus who said the sky was falling...”.
