'Climate change' moralists are always talking about the need to take responsibility/set an example in the face of the imminent planetary apocalypse. Imagine my surprise, therefore, when I read this (in the New York Times):
WASHINGTON — The capital flew into a bit of a tizzy when, on his first full day in the White House, President Obama was photographed in the Oval Office without his suit jacket. There was, however, a logical explanation: Mr. Obama, who hates the cold, had cranked up the thermostat. “He’s from Hawaii, O.K.?” said Mr. Obama’s senior adviser, David Axelrod, who occupies the small but strategically located office next door to his boss. “He likes it warm. You could grow orchids in there.
Thermostat down, coat on, Mr. President: the planet's in peril (or so you tell us).

Interesting bit of hypocrisy on Obama’s part, and media bias on the Times’ part.

Hypocrisy, how can you write that? Zero is merely doing what any good elitist does. Makes rules for others to follow.
Oh yeah he just told the Washington area folks that they need to toughen up and go play in traffic even if road conditions are less than favorable. Of course his commute does not require him to step out into the weather. Good thing cause he has trouble finding the door.

Hes from Hawaii, O.K.? said Mr. Obamas senior adviser, David Axelrod, who occupies the small but strategically located office next door to his boss. He likes it warm. You could grow orchids in there.Interesting, because when That One was complaining about his daughters' school closing because of a 'little ice', he was talking about how, being from Chicago, they're used to the cold.
So which IS it David?

When I lived in housing on Fort Benning, the thermostats had presets that we could not alter.
Soldiers were told that all buildings on the Fort were required to be the same.
I believe it was for all government buildings everywhere.
