Yes, I know that stories about Leftist / environmentalist hypocrisy are so commonplace that they are barely news anymore, but this one has more 'meat' in it than some.

(pardon the pun)

The "shepherd" "liberals" are a bunch of elitists, and they only hold the leftist point of view so that they can keep the rest of us from using up THEIR resources.

The only tragedy here is a guy like West has this kind of money...or any money.

Kanye West is an idiot.
Only thing is, Algore is an even bigger one.

I was not aware that you could charter a private jet to cross the Atlantic for $4,000.00.

Not surprised. Kanye takes the cake when it comes to self-obsession...

Ummmm....don't rappers 'sing' (yell and shout, actually) about how tough they are, how they are "keepin' it real" and are from the mean streets?

Having your dinner AND A CHEF flown across the Atlantic, apparently because the local food simply isn't good enough for you, doesn't exactly bolster any 'tough guy street cred' that this loser may be banking on.....

What an obscene, obnoxious magazine cover!

Of course I'd expect nothing less from Rolling Stoned.

I included it in this post mainly for the benefit of those who have been lucky enough to remain unfamiliar with Kanye West up to now, so that they might be afforded an idea of how very obnoxious and obscene he is.

It's also rather poignant in this circumstance because if it is Mr. West's goal to portray himself as the Suffering Christ (presumably at the hands of 'the man') then having your dinner AND A CHEF flown across the Atlantic would seem to be at variance with this theme, at least to this observer.  Most people who are truly suffering, last time I checked, are grateful for any meal that they can get.

I'm sure he bought plenty of offsets. . . . from the company owned by AL GORE.

LOL. Just like John Thomas is polite word for penis, John Edwards will now be polite words for a homo.

The Climate Crisis will only be stopped by an unprecedented and sustained global movement.

Oh. Global movement. For a moment, I thought he said something else.

Go get 'em, Al. It can't be any more difficult than eradicating manbearpig.
