Charlie Crist Flies Private Jet to Global Warming Media Event [Jet Owned by Serial Polluter!]
MediaTrackers ^ | 8/8/14 | James Taylor

Posted on 08/13/2014 2:21:06 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Charlie Crist flew in a private jet from Tampa to Tallahassee to hold a press conference about the importance of reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

Ironically, the private jet Crist used for his climate presser is owned by James Finch, who has repeatedly been forced to pay fines to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection for unlawful pollution. Finch’s company paid fines for unlawfully polluting water in the Gulf of Mexico near Apalachicola Bay and the Apalachicola National Forest.

Crist has recently criticized a new initiative by Scott to spend $1 billion to improve water quality in the state, with a special focus on Apalachicola Bay. Crist claims he would be more protective of Apalachicola Bay and state waters.

It was Rick Scott’s campaign that got the tail number of the jet and tracked it down.

Can’t decide weather he so stupid to know how stupid it looks or he is so arrogant to not care.

Either way he is a LOSER.

You would think that the watchdog media, so anxious to be objective, would have done that to a candidate.

Once upon a time there was an emperor whose only interest in life was to tax the people and increase the government's power. He kept changing his taxes based on phony theories so that people could give more money to him.

Once, two Climate Alarmists decided to teach him a lesson.
They told the emperor that they were very fine Scientists and could concoct a lovely new theory for him. It would be so shifty and fine that it would seem plausible. Only those who were stupid could not see it. The emperor was very excited and ordered the new Climate Alarmists to begin their work. He gave them many government grants paid for by the already overtaxed People.

One day, the king asked the prime minister to go and see how much work the two “Scientists” had done. He saw the two men moving data in the air but he could see no facts! He kept quiet for fear of being called stupid and ignorant. Instead, he praised the Man-made global warming theory and said it was marvelous.

Finally, the emperor’s new theory was ready. He could see no facts but he too did not want to appear stupid. He admired the AGW theory and thanked the Climate Alarmists. He was asked to parade down the street for all to see the new theory. The emperor paraded down the main street. The people could only see a naked scam but no one admitted it for fear of being thought stupid.

They foolishly praised the lack of logic and the colorful graphs. The emperor was very happy.

At last, a child cried out, “The emperor is full of baloney! And so is Al Gore”

Soon everyone in the media began to murmur the same thing and very soon all shouted, “The denier should not be allowed to speak the truth!” The child was never heard from again and put on a government watch list.

The emperor realized the truth but preferred to believe that his people were stupid.

If the rich believed in Global Warming, they would be buying up huge areas in Canada for future farmland.

[Charlie Crist is the] Poster boy for a political whore.

Truer words have never been written.

This guy is the most soulless chameleon ever to have existed in the state of Florida.

He has absolutely no principles, and will pander to any group, embrace any cause, or switch to any party, as long as he thinks it will improve his electability.

Ask any group of Florida voters and you will get virtually identical answers. Floridians are unanimous in their opinion that Charlie Crist is the ultimate political opportunist.

Charlie Crist is universally despised. I just can't overemphasize what a worthless political creature this man is. How he ever could have been elected to any office is beyond me.

If Charlie Crist ever becomes Florida's governor again, I'll have to seriously consider leaving the state...
