Celebrating Celebrity Comeuppance
Even as the Press tries to cover up Climategate, from the sight of Al Gore’s tail between his huge legs, it is quite clear to all thinking people that the Great Global Warming Swindle has just had the hemp rug pulled out from under it. One of the greatest aspects of this, for me, is the unabashed glee (I’m even finding it hard to type while gasping in evil, cackling fits of laughter) I have at the thought of all the faux “green” celebutards sitting dumbfounded in their private jets. They’ve been telling us ad nauseum for years that carbon emissions and greenhouse gases cause horrific, apocalyptic warming. Lecturing us, all whilst flitting about the globe and then idiotically buying carbon offset indulgences, which should now be renamed stupidity offsets. Hypocrisy, thy name is “green” celebrity. Celeb-ocrisy, if you will.
I’m maniacally giggling even more because they are still in denial, yet are still hypocrites! The “Summit” in Copenhagen will have a carbon footprint larger than Obama’s hubris. Now THAT is saying something. Always one step ahead of the American Press, U.K.’s Times Online has an article fully delineating the massive amounts of waste that will be caused by this Summit, as well as many details of celeb-ocrisy. The list is mind-boggling, and incredibly amusing.
Hypocrisy is the vice we find hardest to forgive, but it’s also the one we most enjoy discovering in others. And nothing piques our interest more than eco-hypocrisy as practised by the “green” celebrities who have been spouting green virtue but spewing out hundreds of tons of carbon from their private jets or multiple holiday homes around the globe.
It goes on to list examples, one by one, but I’ll stick with my favorite hypocrite, Leonardo DiCaprio. He is among the top of my “People I Loathe So Much I’ll Give Up Fibers of My Being to Loathe Them” list. I hold him personally responsible for that “Heart Will Go On” song by “she who shall not be named.”
I’ve had quite a few other bones to pick over the years with Leonardo DiCaprio, or DiCraprio as my brother, sister and I like to call him, while chortling snarkily. Yes, we are puerile. I also can barely get my words out from snickering whenever I call my brother “Phil-do” or when we make fun of my mother’s Scottish brogue, which she oddly hasn’t lost even after 40 years here.
Anyhoops, I keep tabs on DiCraprio just to have tidbits handy for our next familial insult fest. And I hold grudges. I’m still holding one from when he initially jumped ass first onto the Al Gore bandwagon and made a dire warning/global warming movie. Turns out DiCraprio might actually be an accurate name, as he apparently does, in fact, have poop for brains.
Harsh, you may think. But not once you realize his film, an alleged documentary, didn’t even attempt to leave room for debate regarding global warming. Its position was clear (the science is settled!) and stated emphatically that evil humans changed the climate. It also offered such esoteric questions as “How did mankind let nature deteriorate to this point?” Sigh. Bless his heart. Interviewed at its premiere, he made the mistake of trying to use thinkies again to defend Al Gore:
DiCaprio defended Gore from criticism over the amount of energy he has been reportedly using to jet around the world and to run his home. “Don’t shoot the messenger”, he said. “This person is trying to relay a message to the public and the way that he travels should not be splayed out like that.”
DiCaprio said it should be oil companies held up to scrutiny and that the government should make systematic change. The US star said he took steps in his own life to reduce global warming, telling the famous film festival: “I do try to live my life in a green manner. I have installed solar panels in my house and the car that I drive is a hybrid one.”
Yo, Leo, I’m super glad you drive some wussy hybrid (how often do you actually drive yourself?) and all, but what about that Thai beach you desecrated for no good reason? You remember, to film The Beach? The filming of which was an utter waste of time, energy and nature (did anyone even SEE that movie? And, if so, will they admit to it? )
As for “not splaying out” (whatever that means) how the wise and almighty Gore travels, because he brings a message to us, the lowly public, who are greedily doing things like heating our apartments and suburban homes and driving to REAL jobs as opposed to whisking off in private jets, heating and lighting 20,000 s.f. homes or staging HUGE stadium rock concerts to promote the conservation of energy (explain that one to me)… I’ve got a message for you — IT WAS ALL A HOAX.
There, now I’m a messenger. Which must mean, based on your own reasoning, that I can now expand my carbon footprint exponentially with no guilt. I’ll let you in on a secret; I’ve been doing that anyway. I prefer to be part of the fake problem, rather than part of the fake solution. So, I’ll just continue doing as I please and further ignore the bilge spewing from the mouths of the Hollywood elites. Only now I’ll do it while pointing and snickering at them, not only for their hypocrisy, but for their utter stupidity. Perhaps now our genius Congress will toss out the horrendous Cap and Trade bill that they are trying to pass, and we won’t all be forced into wimpy ass, pissant, corn-powered cars. Or whatever the hell ethanol is made from. I’d ask Leo, but I’m pretty sure he barely remembers his own name, on a good week. And this certainly hasn’t been one of them!

It used to be “Father Knows Best” in America. Now its a neo-communist ruling class that’s lecturing us on how to live and increasingly enforcing it with the teeth of the state. The left when unchecked always becomes tyrannical, alas the road to hell is paved with progressives “good intentions”.

carbon offset indulgences – This is the perfect description for celebutard rationalization concerning their public “green” stance and their personal practices.

Loved the stupidity offset certificate!

Denial…everyone is in denial about it, and will never admit they were scammed, especially the Hollywood-noids. They’re the absolute worst: bank accounts the rest of us can only dream of, and then they mount their high horses and lecture the rest of us. I guess fame and fortune reduces the thinking capacity of the brain and causes one to reach out to thugs and tyrants around the world, rejecting the very society that made you rich and famous. Can’t figure it out…..

Just what I’d expect from a culture of weirdos whose majority never completed an education. They surround themselves with personal assistants they do every last bit of thinking for them. They have agents and handlers who are paid liars that tell these people how great they are 24/7. Yeah, they have fat bank accounts, but money can’t fix stupid

I cannot pass a hybrid vehicle in my crew cab Silverado with the 6 liter v8 without rooling on the gas a bit to rap the flowmaster mufflers at them. I also like to make eye contact with my
“You know the fuel you are not using?Thanks,I needed it!” look on my face.
I hate Toyota Prious’ more than I hate Al Gore.
You want to talk about fake? Read into a prious.
For every gallon of gas they save I intentionally burn TWO.

I love it @Matt!
We have a 4 door Jeep Wrangler and we live in the land of Hybrids (Seattle). We considered getting a vanity plate that said THNKGREEN but figured that would lead to our Jeep getting keyed and our tires slashed.

When will celebrities learn that the more they align themselves with political positions, especially polarizing ones, they loose half their money making fan base.
I’d have more respect for them if they put their money where their mouths are….feed the hungry, save the rain forest, etc.

For the greeny Gore worshippers it’s like an Islamist discovering Mohammed really was the rogue Bishop Prestor John – they will never admit that they’ve been swindled. They will become rabidly zealous. Waxman already said, when told that plants need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, ” … it doesn’t matter, we’re still going to cut carbon emissions …”

Thank Heaven for the word retard and its attendant suffix “tard.” How could we even discuss liberalism without it?

“Climate change” is an oxymoron. It’s a hoax, scam to prey and control the dumb populace.
Odds are the world will come to an end by other means other than “climate change” or an “event” (meteor, solar flare, tsunami, etc..) that will change the climate. You have to be a real idiot to cling to the whole Gore scam! How can you follow a guy who blatantly lives on Earth piggishly consuming more “carbon units” than thousands of human beings? If you truly believe in the global climate scam you would DESPISE Al Gore instead of putting him on a pedestal.

I am sick of Algore and sick of Hollywood. I’ve been sick of hollywood for a long time….why would a regular middle class type person hitch their wagon to the political or ideological leanings of someone that makes a huge living pretending to be someone or something they aren’t? They surely cannot related to us – the working folks! I quit giving hollywood my money many years ago.
@Tim – your remark about photosynthesis is correct. Plants take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and release oxygen back into the air. Waxman didn’t understand because he probably skipped science in school – like alot of people do these days…

@ Matt
Suppose James Hines suddenly saw the light and came over to our point of view. Could we say that James was becoming “detarded”
I like that
Detardation — the process of moving away from liberal thinking. Speaking for myself, I began the process of mental detardation about 25 years.
How about you Matt, when did you get so detarded?

Sicktoy, Science, they have Science classes in schools? When do they find the time?
The school I pass every day on the way to work starts at 9 and lets out by 3….between Condoms on Cucumbers 101; Not Your Parents’ History; Rainbows: Why its more than just a flag – and now Jennings’ list of required reading – how do they manage a science class?

Science is not just lost in schools… just went to Borders bookstore yesterday. The Astrology and Magical Studies section was much bigger than the Astronomy section….
BTW — S. Palin’s book was way back in the store, not in front, like a #1 bestseller should be… gave them an earful…

Lennie,I joined the United States Navy at 17 years old under President Ronald Reagan. My Detardation was swift and complete. The first election I voted in was done absentee from a ship. I did not know shit about politics but still knew that Reagan was the master.
