Video of Earth First environmental lunacy in its full glory as they cry over trees.
The folks at Earth First has always been lunatics. But here’s a video clip that demonstrates that environmental lunacy in its full glory.
“I want to mourn the loss of all the old growth trees I’m seeing and tell them that we love them and that we don’t want them to die and that there are people here who do care. So I want you to know that, trees, that we care.”
You’ll love the sniveling, the sobbing, the wailing and the weeping. And the primal scream is pretty funny, too.
Looking for something special for the eco-wacko in your life? How about a gift certificate for a couple sessions with an ecopsychologist.
Yes, ecopsychology. It’s a new branch of psychology that helps you reduce your worries while while simultaneously helping reduce your carbon footprint. It helps you work on personal relationships and your relationship to nature.
In other words, you still tell the psychologist that your mother didn’t understand you. But now you can add that your elm tree doesn’t understand you, either.
“Global warming has added an extra layer of anxiety to what people are already feeling,” said Sandy Shulmire a practicing ecopsychologist.
Some psychologists think the whole thing is a giant load of bunkum.
“If the patient has generalized anxiety disorder, he or she is going to be worrying about almost everything,” noted Dr. Scott Lilienfeld, a psychology professor at Emory University.
Odds are you won’t be able to see your own doctor under Obama’s new healthcare plan, but will be able to see an ecopsychologist.
Or are we just being eco-paranoid?

Here’s our two-word review of this animated United Nations Environment Program ozone fright film:
Insipid crappola.
Aimed at impressionable kids, it follows an ozone molecule named Ozzy Ozone and an albatross named Alberta as they “take a voyage of discovery to find out exactly who and what is attacking the ozone layer.” Of course, it also contains the requisite preaching designed to convince children that they can make a difference.
“Luckily,” the video says, “we’re protected by a brave little band of defenders at the very edge of space. The ozone molecules that make up our planet’s ozone layer. Despite their tiny size, our ozone defenders are amazingly strong and smart.”
Yes, the U.N. imparts intelligence to ozone molecules. But based on one viewing, that’s more than we’re willing to say about whomever is responsible for this outrageous child propaganda.
(Originally published three weeks ago, we felt today would be an appropriate day to rerun it)
It’s sleek. Powerful. And comes with a remarkably fuel efficient ethanol engine. It’s the 2010 Czar Car from Obama Motors.
Designed by well-known automotive designer Barack Obama, the Czar Car simultaneously protects the environment and the President’s union constituents.
The Czar Car runs on ethanol and gets a million miles per gallon. Once a decade when your gas tank gets low, just pull into the cornfield in your neighborhood and say, “Fill ‘er up.”
The 2010 Czar Car is currently just a prototype, but you’ll soon see if being driven by members of ACORN as they travel around the country performing census duties and counting people who don’t exist in Democratic districts.
Best of all, the Czar Car comes with a lifetime guarantee supplied by the government of the United States of America.
And since it comes from the same people who brought you the Post Office and the Department of Motor Vehicles, we suggest you keep that warranty handy at all times.
When Laurie David’s on the west coast, she lives in huge energy-sucking home high in the hills above Santa Monica. When she’s on the east coast, she lives in Martha’s Vineyard.
Martha’s Vineyard is also where her hypocrisy is current residing.
According to the New York Post, David, the executive producer of Al Gore’s global-warming documentary “An Inconvenient Truth,” was busted and fined $900 by the Chilmark Conservation Commission.
David was cited for violating the Wetlands Protection Act during the construction of a tennis court on her sprawling Chilmark property, when workers installed boards and stones to construct a path to the court.
But David — who spent weeks on the road with Sheryl Crow in 2007 during their Stop Global Warming College Tour — let her contractor, Bart Thorpe, take the fall for the violations. “She’s obviously a very busy person, and she trusted the contractor,” Thorpe told the Gazette. “I inadvertently made a mistake. It’s something she had no knowledge of . . . It’s a minor thing.”
Maybe it wouldn’t be such a major deal on the Vineyard if the supposed eco-obsessed celebrity hadn’t been cited for the exact same violation four years ago. In 2005, David constructed a stone fire pit, a barbecue area and a children’s theater stage in a wetlands area without a permit.
You can’t make this stuff up. If her ex-husband wrote it into a sitcom, you wouldn’t believe it.

U.S. House Speaker and dim bulb Nancy Pelosi is visiting China. Rumor has it that she made the sudden trip only after getting a fortune cookie that said, “Chinese reporters don’t ask you about waterboarding.”
While speaking at Tsinghua University, Pelosi tried to link human rights and environmental justice and confused those who speak English just as badly as she confused those who speak Chinese.
“I do see this opportunity for climate change to be … a game-changer,” she declared. “It’s a place where human rights — looking out for the needs of the poor in terms of climate change and healthy environment — are a human right.”
She then turned to the president of the university and asked for an order of fried rice, orange peel chicken and pot stickers.
Wouldn’t surprise you, would it?

“The Goode Family” premiered last night on ABC-TV. It was created by politically-incorrect Mike Judge, who also created King of the Hill and Beavis and Butt-head. Most reviews (including our entire staff) agree it was funnier than hell. Here are the top 10 lines we heard.
1. “We can’t shop there. They don’t even have a mission statement.”
2. Ubuntu: “Sorry I used so much gas, dad.”
Dad: “That’s okay. The important thing is you feel guilty about it.”
3. “Don’t say ‘people of color’ because that’s just ‘colored people’ backwards.”
4. “The View is on. The pretty one is saying crazy stuff again.”
5. On a bumper sticker:
“Support our troops. And their opponents.”
6. Bumper sticker on Goode Family hybrid:
“Earth First – Ask Questions Later”
7. “WWAGD? What would Al Gore do?”
8. “Attention One Earth Shoppers. The owner of the SUV is in aisle 4 wearing a ball cap.”
9. “Your mother accidentally bought two-ply (toilet paper). But don’t worry I fixed it.”
10. Goode: “If you want to have proportionately diverse staff, we need three more minority hires.
Jensen: “Why don’t we just fire three white guys. Everybody wins.”
This looks like it’s going to be funny. “The Goode Family” premieres on ABC-TV on Wednesday, May 27. It was created by politically-incorrect Mike Judge, who also created King of the Hill and Beavis and Butt-head.
The Goode Family is an obsessively, compulsively politically and ecologically correct family. They live their lives the way liberals would have all of us live – reusing their shopping bags, driving hybrid cars, and recycling everything. Of course, they’re vegans, to boot.
Thanks, Mike Judge. Since the rest of the biased liberal media won’t expose the real world eco-wackos, we’re glad you did in animated form.

The Democrats’ Cap-and-Trade bill passed out of committee this week on a party line vote.
They passed it despite the fact that Cap-and-Trade has been a corruption-plagued failure in Europe. They passed it despite the fact that logic says you can’t pile billions of dollars of expenses on the economy without increasing costs. They passed it despite all logic and reason.
Heritage.org did an analysis that shows this preposterous program will cost the average American family $4,300 per year.
They predict that the direct impact on household energy bills will average $1500 per year. That includes the increases the increased costs of electricity, natural gas, home heating oil, and gasoline for your car.
“But the direct tax on household energy use is just the beginning,” Heritage reported. “The energy tax also hits producers. As the higher production costs ripple through the economy the household pocketbooks get hit again and again. When all the tax impacts have been added up, the average per-family-of-four costs rise by $4,300 per year.”
Heritge.org continued: “As President Obama warned us on his campaign trail, electricity prices will ‘necessarily skyrocket.’ So will everything else, except for our income and standard of living.”
After President Obama has finished his ‘Round the World Apology Tour 2009, perhaps he can come home and apologize to the American people for this Obamanation abomination.

Our Twidiot of the Day is @carbonoffsetnow.
“Tweeting is eco-friendly! Tweeting is fun and it’s nice to meet new people.”
Well, isn’t that special?
“Eating raw fruits and vegetables is a good way to go. No crops on the market today are genetically engineered to increase crop yield.”
But I’ll bet your bicycle has a bumper sticker about feeding the starving masses in Africa.
“It’s good karma to recipricate [sic] friendship! When we work together with the universe everyone is happy.”
Do you drink your Kool-Aid straight, or do you lace it with something psychedelic?

Can you imagine how embarrassed the Queen of England must be every time her dullard son opens his mouth?
Now the King of Hypocrites has enlisted a bunch of celebrities – including Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, the Dalai Lama, and soccer legend Pele – for a YouTube commercial that promotes Prince Chuck’s campaign to save the rainforest.
They all get together in a 90-second celebratory circle jerk to raise awareness for the need to stop tropical deforestation.
Just as this campaign was being launched, Prince Chuck, the lovely Duchess of Cornwall and their 14-person entourage flew a chartered private jet on a 16,400 mile round trip to Chile, Brazil and Ecuador to check out the rainforest for themselves. The whole shebang cost more than $450,000.
Hypocritical? No, no, no, no, no. Prince Chuck says he’s buying carbon offsets.
Anybody know where we can buy $450,000 worth of bullsh*t offsets?

George Carlin monologue on the environment, environmentalists, and saving the planet.
George Carlin may be gone, but his brilliant monologues will live forever at YouTube. Here’s the George Carlin monologue on the environment, environmentalists, and saving the planet. Ahhh, we miss you, George.
WARNING: It’s a George Carlin video, so this clip is filled with words and thoughts that may be offensive to many.
We don’t make this stuff up, we just report it. Nobody could make this stuff up.
Fox News just issued a story titled “Eleven Ways to Make Your Sex Life Greener.” This surprised us, because we didn’t know that sex was bad for the environment.
“As we become more compelled to sustain the future, all that is erotic is becoming green,” Dr. Yvonne K. Fulbright says in the report. “From seduction to sex, individuals are becoming more planet-friendly as well as body-friendly.
The story goes on to provide tips on green dating, vegetarian porn, green weddings, bamboo sheets, sustainable wooden paddles, and phthalate-free vibrators. (Dammit, man, we don’t even know what a phthalate is, but it sounds kind of kinky.)
As a public service, IHateTheMedia.com generously submits the following tip that Dr. Fulbright overlooked:
“Keep the lights off when you’re having sex with someone ugly. It will conserve energy and your self-esteem.”
You’re welcome. Who needs The Playboy Advisor when you have IHateTheMedia.com.

Every day, 365 days a year, the New York Times cranks out more than one million copies of shoddy reportage also known as a newspaper. Entire forest have given their lives so that the New York Times might live lie.
But that doesn’t keep them from chastising Americans for flushing toilet paper down the drain.
In an article called “What Mr. Whipple Didn’t Say: Softer Paper Is Costly to Forests,” the Times reveals that Americans like their bathroom tissue thick, silky and soft as a baby’s bottom (so to speak).
In their view, this makes you a bad person because millions of trees get wiped out just so you can wipe up. If you were simply willing to do your duty with, say, a dried-out old corn cob or a recycled Audi, those trees could grow up, get married, go to law school and live long, happy productive lives.
Don’t take this sitting down. Begin recycling the New York Times by using it as toilet paper.
You might even say that if you get behind the New York Times, the New York Times will get behind you. If you know what we mean.

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow and her husband, rocker Chris Martin, both bleed green. At least publicly. But privately, well, that’s a different matter.
A recent independent audit shows that their London home “leaks” energy. And a lot of it — more than 1,000 kilowatt hours of heat per year. In fact, the Times of London reports that thermal images of Paltrow/Martin and nine other high-profile English eco-wackos found that their homes’ heat loss was no better than what’s found in the average family home and often worse. Continue reading “Gwyneth Paltrow red-faced over green criticism?”
Oh, this should be good. Really good. One of Hollywood’s hottest actresses versus America’s hottest governor.
Actress Ashley Judd and Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund have teamed up to target Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s environmental record. They’re upset because Palin allegedly promotes the aerial killing of wolves in Alaska.
“It is time,” Judd says, “to stop Sarah Palin and stop this senseless savagery.”
We have a deeply held belief that all disputes should be settled through civil discourse. To advance that cause, we believe the only way for Judd and Palin to resolve their dispute is a mud wrestling match. We’ll referee.

You won’t get much of an argument from anyone if you say Neil Young is the worst singer in the history of rock ‘n roll.
Yet despite this seemingly insurmountable handicap, he’s managed to produce a couple pretty good songs over the years.
But now the aging rocker is about to release a CD completely dedicated to songs about electric cars. That’s not a typo. Electric cars. “Fork in the Road” includes catchy titles like “Cough Up the Bucks,” “Hit the Road,” “Get Around” and “Fuel Line.”
Here’s a video of the title track. Consider yourself warned.
Barack Obama’s inauguration generated unprecedented media coverage around the world.
Turns out the event generated an astounding 35,000 stories in the world’s major newspapers, television and radio broadcasts within 24 hours. That’s 35 times more than the 2005 inauguration — enough to cause the clear cutting of several major forests, increase global warming by several degrees, and swamp Washington, D.C. under several feet of globally-warmed glacier water.
The inauguration of George W. Bush in January 2005 triggered only about 1,000 stories around the world.
Who’d a thunk? Bush was better for the environment than Obama.
