Bonkers? Hello kettle. "...courage in naming her daughter Gaia,...". Bonkers? Uh, yup. But I guess flyin' all over the world for film work has some sort of special exemption?

If you are not full on board with their religion of Gaia you MUST be berated, ridiculed, have your head cut off or converted over to their religion.

Sounds all to familiar.

No Emma. The studio execs who thought that “Nanny McPhee Returns” was a good idea are bonkers.

If the science is settled, why do they keep changing their predictions?

What a shame. She used to come by the Boardroom a lot. She was one of the “famous” people that my wife really liked.

Not so much, now.

I had a conversation about global warming with a young guy at work last week. He’s actaully a very smart and well educated guy, but when it came to AGW, his whole argument was “consensus”.

Amazing, really.

As one of the comments on that site said, [parapharasing] you really have to start admiring the Kardashians, because they’re just using their rear ends, boobs, and chasing money and bling instead of pretending they have the slightest idea of what they are talking about.

It’s tough to tell whether you understood, but “...courage in naming her daughter Gaia...” is a back-handed swipe.

I still say that the “green energy industry” is the most successful money laundry operation. The Seven Families (aka La Cosa Nostra) must be green with envy. What’s left of the Gambino’s must be saying “Why didn’t we think of that?”

"and for her courage in naming her daughter Gaia"

What definition of 'courage' means this?

“Consensus” = what an angry mob does after the chants fail to affect change.

Every knowledgeable person believes in climate change and the warming/cooling cycles of the planet.

But only arrogant, brainwashed, leftist twits believe that puny man has the power to create such massive changes.

The ‘consensus’ argument is easily defeated- just tell them who whole scientific world had previously come to the ‘consensus’ that the world was flat, and the sun went around it.

Doubt ISIS is a real threat. Look at the big chance they missed in London and New York.

These actresses never tire of telling the real the world what to think...AS IF they could get REAL jobs if they had to.

I'd sooner listen to the manicurist or the waitress telling me what to think than listen to Emma-who has probably never EVER punched a time clock in her BS life or read anything but a script for donkey's years.

It's a good thing THIS one is in the acting game because it sounds like she's as smart as a tree slug and just as impressionable... since all she's doing is parroting every other Liberal who has parroted every other biased politician since the topic of ‘global warming’ first saw the light of day.

Bonkers

Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals:

RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

So F*** Alinsky and Enema....

You just have to remember - AGW is not science anymore, it is religion...
