While Dr. Roy Spencer reports on a number of politically incorrect cartoons about Earth Day, saying,
“I mostly find Earth Day just plain annoying for the rank hypocrisy on display. A state-sponsored religious day of worship, along with all of the 1st Amendment-violating regulations to codify it. “
In response, the president has weighed in with a short speech.
Obama is qualified to speak on any scientific issue at all because why???? His qualifications are what exactly? Being a community organizer and winning a popularity contest (aka winning the presidential votes)
Lenin’s Birthday, Shmennin’s Birthday! It’s MY birthday and the ##### greens have stolen it! I want it back!
I would extend Dr. Spencer’s missive to ALL religious days of worship, state-sponsored or not. Hypocrisy and magical thinking abounds in all of them.
Well, dear Chris “It’s MY birthday” Café, we must do something about that!

This isn’t necessarily limited to the President.

no, I was referring to this article

clearly, religion and science working together to search for the truth
Why don’t you watch the (whole) video,
and let me know what you think of the SoT,
honestly.
One place I worked they had chalk boards (in those unenlightened days called blackboards) in the toilet cubicles and some chalk for people to write their prose. Carved into one there was the phrase “Where’s the BLOODY chalk”.
You can learn much from toilet graffiti some you didn’t know and much you don’t!

i forgot to celebrate earth day yesterday, so well done to the world!!!
How higher temps from global warming helps eradicate poverty.
http://www.theguardian.com/soc…
“The world is witnessing a epochal ‘global rebalancing’ with higher growth in at least 40 poor countries helping lift hundreds of millions out of poverty and into a new ‘global middle class’. Never in history have the living conditions and prospects of so many people changed so dramatically and so fast.”
The report, by Oxford University’s poverty and human development initiative, predicts that countries among the most impoverished in the world could see acute poverty eradicated within 20 years if they continue at present rates”

@HenryP
I think you missed the point, the post is also tagged under ‘Humor, Politics and Satire’, I actually thought you were trying to be humorous inferring a picture of a hot air dryer in a washroom was “toilet humor” rather than the inference that the president giving a short speech about ‘global warming’ would likely be a load of hot air while handwaving.
Get out much?
Print the message on a shipping label with a label printer. That way you won’t “deface” public property. (And you’ll be able to affix your message more quickly, and have no guilty evidence in your pocket afterwards.)
@Hot under the collar
I think between the lines, the discussion is actually about what an appropriate subject is for discussion, Anthony seemingly banning all religious-scientific discussions whereas promoting toilet humor (=anything, especially graffiti, that comes out of a toilet)
I wrote a letter to BO telling him no to worry about global warming, because there isn’t any.
Obviously I never received an answer because it got caught between him and me by a myriad of “assistants”
But what if there were a 100 or a 1000 letters, initiated by all those who frequent WUWT? Giving their own account as to why there is no global warming. From all over the world? That might attract some reaction from the white house?
Henry – here’s one for you – while POTUS is hemming and hawing about Keystone, the railways have more than doubled their capacity to 170,000 barrels a day going south from Canada with a lot more expansion planned. By the time POTUS is gone, it could be that the total capacity is going to already being shipped by rail. (in fact, the Canadian gov. just passed a bill to force the Rail companies to haul grain, wonder why?) The State Department was correct in their initial assessment that Keystone would not result in additional CO2 and the oil would be produced anyway. Rail transport of course produces more CO2 and is less safe. But the end result is that when the current POTUS is gone (and many of us in Canada assume that it won’t be approved until he is gone) the next administration will approve it meaning that there will be a LOT more oil shipping capacity – so the delay, contrary to what the Eco-Fringe is promoting – the delay will result in an INCREASE in production. Ah, the land of unintended consequences.
This is a little silly, seeing as Earth Day was co-founded by a conservation-minded Republican Congressman, Pete McCloskey.
A far better pair of comments about earth day than I could ever come up with…
