But celebs’ pollution smells nicer than ours does, don’cha know.
Liberals and hypocrisy go together like bacon and eggs. It’s that time tested “do as I say and not as I do” mentality.
It may seem dark now, Larry, but life will get better and better from this day forward.
I am convinced that committed environmentalists suffer from an inner void. They are too shallow to consider self-improvement, and instead direct that energy at correcting the flaws of others. In an extreme case, such as Laurie David, they are so blind that they cannot see the very faults in themselves that they are correcting in others.
It’s a mental disease masquerading as a public policy.
Liberals are so blind to their own hypocrisy...
Yes, the great unwashed masses who need them to think for us.
Well, I’d like a big house or two and to be able to jet around where ever I want when ever I want.
Since they’re such big fans of socialism, I’m waiting for them to give me the money to do it.
*chirp, chirp,...*
I don’t think this hypocrisy argument gets us very far. The logical conclusion is that they should use less energy. I just want them to shut up and mind their own business. We would do better to illustrate that they are a bunch of communist inspired totalitarian leaning busybodies who don’t know what they are talking about. A lot of mischief hides under the environmentalist label and we need to sully it.
I know Larry David has said some stupid things before but I believe that alot of his liberal rants have been due to his relationship with Laurie. He's got some signs of being a natural conservative.
That is he is able to strip away the veneer of life's moments and get to the crux of the issue in ten seconds. He proved this time and time again on Seinfeld in general and especially by the George character being an almost carbon copy of himself.
"I went home and turned on the lights." See - that's getting to the crux and is damn funny.
To see their hypocrisy first hand one has to do nothing more than watch the Oscars or Emmies. If they were so concerned about the environment they would forsake the limos and take an electric bus, turn off all the spotlights,dine on some environmentally friendly food and not party until all hours and waste electricity. Militant Muslims would turn pacifist before that happens.
Hypocrisy is the lifeblood of liberals, no matter where you find them, as this clearly demonstrates.
I can't remember where I read it or who said it, but it was a celeb talking about this type of hypocrisy.
The way this person justifies their actions is a simple "We all do what we can in our own way"
Typical lib/hollywood Bravo Sierra. It stinks to high heaven from a mile away.
I live my life just fine using the principle that there is nothing a celeb can do or say that I need or want to know.
No, no, no...
You have it all wrong! She’s not a hypocrite - she buys OFFSETS for her sins against the environment! She’s carbon neutral!
Apparently, she forgot to buy some offsets for her infidelity, though. Sadly, this oversight has not made her adultery-neutral as she might have wanted. *sad*
I wholely disagree. The totalitarian angle should be completely played (and defended against) but by far the hypocrisy angle is the most effective and immediate.
It is one thing to argue the minutia of global warming. This study, this figure, this statistic vs. another study, another figure, another statistic.
You don't need almost any registerable IQ to recognise the rank hypocrisy of, say, Sheryl Crow saying we should use only one sheet (maybe two) of toilet paper per visit and then seeing bulletin boards of Crow endorsing a hair coloring system where the product comes in a very elaborate, corrogated box that clearly uses the equivalant of a roll or two or three of paper product.
Step one to make some of these enviromental celebrities shut up IS to highlight their hypocrisy with a constant drumbeat. Trust me-it'll shut alot of them up.
But it is certainly true that the most important thing is to expose the fraud that is the purported science.
No, no, no...

I find the whole thing amusing.
They wouldn't even get me a front porch! I'm still sitting on a plastic lawn chair in the driveway.
I wonder if Larry can find some cheap divorce announcement cards and envelopes and give them to Laurie to send to their friends since obviously the wedding ones were too high grade. :)
