I am pleased to say that I care more about Paris Hilton than about Global Warming.
review
The world will end as we know it on december 22, 2012. The end of the Mayan calendar. Or is it the 23rd?
My desk calendar clearly says the end will be on December 31st of this year.
Went and took a look.
What on earth has that loon been right about?
I’m surprised the anti-immigrationers aren’t throwing this back into the faces of the so-called “environmentalists” . . .look at the pollution, congestion, use of resources, etc. of unchecked immigration . . now and in the future.
If they’re do damn concerned about the environment, then why not work to deporting these people?
I don’t agree with Manning’s assessment of the majority of people as being concerned more about Paris, Brittney and Victoria. Most people are simply trying to keep their corner of the world pleasant and orderly. The ones obsessing about the celebrities tend to be those who are screwed up or living vicariously and they are the ones simple enough to believe what is written or broadcast. The rest of society is working five to six days a week, keeping their own homes together, playing with their kids, going to church and temple (and mosque) and pay attention to what they can change.
When these people do speak up, about global warming, immigration, morality and standards, they are immediately shut down by “the elite” so most have just turned off and do what they believe is right in their own lives. That’s a far cry from how this elitist snob portrays the “common man” who not only actually has common sense but is quite common if one looks closely.
algore IS the Paris Hilton of politics.
Answer is “nothing”. In fact, Crazy Al and his followers who worship at the alter of The Church of Global Warming had better hurry with their planned conversion of the Willing Idiots as the earth now may be heading into a cooling cycle. Should this happen, of course the cooling of the earth will be blamed on global warming too. What a bunch of lug nuts....
TRUE?
Yes, and no.
What I have observed here in Los Angeles and with the New York based MSM, ~ from there to the public and various opportunists(one of which is a Reverend Bacon character from a Tom Wolfe novel) — It has been a lynch mob!
No one, certainly not Paris Hilton deserves to be treated like this, like a Super Dangerous criminal/Public Enemy.
Paris Hilton is a product of our decadent popular culture, this Age of MTV.
She is famous because WE choose to make he so.
In the end, Paris Hilton is a human being, not a monster that the Press & Public have been acting collectively to destroy as a means of wronging the failings of The System.
We are the villains here, not Paris
She is the victim of our schoolyard capriciousness
Well, said Caseinpoint. ...About two weeks ago, Cultural Critic Michael Medved wrote a Townhall.com piece regarding the viewing habits of Americans, which were placed in two categories: Heavy viewing (4 or more hours per day or week) versus Light viewing (1 hour or less per day or week). The column, based upon research, found those who tend to watch more television are prone to view the world with a darker lens than those who watch less. In short, your point regarding people obsessing over Paris or Brittney is well made.
...Manning's just another one of these Elitist Liberals I can barely stomach, looking down the nose at those people whom he claims to champion.
He may be completely and utterly insane by now.
Next thing you know he’ll want to be president....of the UNIVERSE...and save us all....from ......something.
Algore, the leftist liar.
“...i care more about paris hilton than i do about global warming.”
me too...
And I care more about laundry detergent than I do about Paris Hilton :-).
Well, with a dozen or so people in the house, you better!
