Stupid left-wing do-gooders who've been ordering everyone to stuff the world's food supply into their gas tanks discover it hasn't quite made them the vanguard for Global Justice. Hugo Chavez and other representatives of the world's downtrodden think it's just another reason to hate the Western elites and their dominating ideologies. Anyone who doesn't get a chuckle out of this has no sense of irony.

PS Strangely enough, I find myself in agreement with Chavez and the Cubans on this one. First time ever.

Cuban Vice President Carlos Lage: "Developed countries want to feed the cars of the rich with food -- this is the irrational world we live in today,"

This article may be the all-time peak in global warming hysteria. Even Al Gore will blush when he sees this one...

"Climate change could cause global conflicts as large as the two world wars but lasting for centuries unless the problem is controlled, a leading defence think tank has warned."

(But fortunately, the solution is at hand. It's simple. Fork over 10 times as much money to the authorities).

The Royal United Services Institute said a tenfold increase in research spending, comparable to the amount spent on the Apollo space programme, will be needed if the world is to avoid the worst effects of changing temperatures.

Another Pittsburgh Moonbat has a man-crush Jimmy Peanut Head Carter.

"Jimmy Carter, peacemaker, realist
The ex-president cuts through the nonsense to speak to the entity that cannot be ignored"

Yes, Jimmy Carter - the Neville Chamberlain of our times. Im suprised he didnt come off the plane waving the "peace" agreement from Hamas in the air saying "Middle East Peace in our time!!".

I cant stand people named Ned. When saying the name it sounds like someone saying Ted with a stuffed up nose.

Well, that's find-diddly-ine with me, Anon-arino.

"Mancrush" on Jimmy Carter?

BEEN THERE.

DONE THAT.

JC actually de-flowered me when I was 12 years old right under his desk in the Oval Orifice in the White House while the US economy was suffering from malaise. Little Jimmah's Johnson wasn't suffering though. Ol' JC had a thing for young boys no older than 12. Why do you think that he and Yasser Arafat got along so well together? And those Israeli Jews. HOO BOY, they had this thing about what they called "protecting" 12 year old boys. They didn't like that kind of thing going on. Knuckle dragging God freak ReTHUGliKKKans! How DARE YOU get in the way of Man-Boy love!

A lack of qualifications didn't hurt Lamont with the fawning media or radicalized Democrat primary voters any more than it's hurting B.O. Sheer left-wing fanaticism was enough to see him through — until he got to the election, where grownups were allowed to participate.

Last night,I was watching the after - result speeches of the two candidates with the sound turned off, to focus without distraction on the people who were placed strategically behind them.

Hillary always has many black people behind her. Without too much exception, most of the racial mix there look like a standard range of average Joes and Janes.

Obama's back up is more interesting. Every time he speaks, the strategic crowd behind him is almost entirely white ("Look, white people support me, too!"), but good Lord, what sort of whitey? It is always a compilation of the very young, the shifty looking, the outright wacko, and what look like graying, unrepentant Marxist college professors.

Whatever undue influence any of that lot have on the MSM, caucuses, etc., they are not reflective of the America that still does most of the presidential election voting.

If the choice ends up being McCain / Obama, there is every chance that the result will be reminiscent of the Nixon / McGovern landslide.

I live in Connecticut and remember the Ned Lamont sensation well. There's a town that has an annual Labor Day parade that I attend nearly every year and during every election year, all politicians on every level march in it.

That year, Ned Lamont had a HUGE contingent with him...mostly college age kids...and the local Democrats (who told Lieberman to scat; he wouldn't be welcome to march with them). The crowd clapped politely as Lamont rounded the curve, running around shaking hands.

A short time later, Joe Lieberman with his much smaller group of supporters came around the same curve and the crowd roared its approval with raucous clapping and cheering. He was quite obviously the man of the hour. I'll never forget that day.

It'll be interesting to see if Mackinnon's analogy holds true. I certainly hope it will.

Ned Flanders is a communist. His place of business is called the Leftorium.

And he sometimes appears as the devil.

Homer: God, if you really are God, you'll get me tickets to that game.

[doorbell rings]

Ned Flanders: Heidely-ho, neighbor. Wanna go to the game with me? I got two tick--

Homer: [slams the door, looks heavenward] Why do you mock me, O Lord?

Marge: Homer, that's not God. That's just a waffle that Bart tossed up there.

[Marge scrapes it off the ceiling into Homer's hands]

Homer: I know I shouldn't eat thee, but -- [bites] Mmm, sacrilicious.

That's Ned to me.
