Laurie David: One Seriously 'Inconvenient' Woman (global warming)
NPR.org ^ | 5/8/07 | Elizabeth Blair

Posted on 05/08/2007 7:49:16 AM PDT by redstates4ever

Laurie David has been called the high priestess of Hollywood activism: She's raised millions of dollars for environmental causes, helped bring Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth from lecture hall to big screen, and used pop-culture channels to spread the word about global warming. (snip)

I woke up the morning after the election, November 3, and cried for three straight days. I couldn't stop. Not because my candidate lost, which he had, but because of what it meant for the solutions to global warming. We had just reelected a president who surrounds himself with advisors and staff culled from the oil and auto industries, two giants fighting change at all costs. In fact, the president's first act in office in 2001 was to renege on his promise to regulate CO2 as a pollutant. Two months later, he shocked the world by removing the United States from the Kyoto Protocol, an agreement that was the result of thousands of hours of work, endless meetings, difficult negotiations-basically blood, sweat, and tears-on the part of 160 countries, including the United States.

On day four of my crying jag,... [it goes on]

He "removed" the U.S. from Kyoto?

What a delusional twitette.

For the record:

On July 25, 1997, John Kerry and Ted Kennedy, along with 93 other senators (with five senators not voting and none voting in opposition) adopted a resolution stating that ‘the United States should not be a signatory to any protocol to, or other agreement regarding, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change of 1992, at negotiations in Kyoto.’

That's 1997. Pray tell who was in the White House and who was in charge of both houses of Congress?

Take Heart....

There was a piece on Fox News last night about how Global Warming Zealots were touting population control as a means of fixing the problem. OF course, the only people allowed to procreate would be those that agree with the zealots, but I digress....

My point is that I remember the 70s when the global cooling/cancer/pollution/etc scares were being touted by the same people. Hysteria reached its worst, and population control was "The Only Solution". Then.....things pretty much petered out and nothing came of it.

It's always darkest before the dawn. These kooks will go away, eventually.

His TV wife (Cheryl Hines) is better in every way.

Check out the video interview half way down the page. You'll get a good bad taste of what Laurie is all about.

She’s so stone cold stupid that she didn’t know we were NEVER “in” the Kyoto treaty in order to be removed from it?
The treaty was unanimously rejected by every single Senator (of BOTH parties) who voted on it. I don’t know if that was one of the days when sKerry was too busy to show up for work or not.

Pathetically stupid. Babs Streisand stupid.

What a delusional twitette.

Twitette, yes. Delusional, no. She knows the Senate voted overwhelmingly to reject Kyoto. She is just a good old-fashioned liar. She also knows the "media" won't correct her lie and the sheeple will believe her.

“His TV wife (Cheryl Hines) is better in every way.”

She’s said some very disparaging things about Dubya.

She’s also one of those kooks who goes around the country performing in The Vagina Monlogues.
