"An Inconvenient Truth" By Any Other Name...

Posted by vergelimbo On 11:40 PM 3 comments

The film "An Inconvenient Truth" may be a first for Hollywood It is a category-defying "environmental horror documentary"

Other "Inconvenient Truths" noted by vergelimbo:


Truth 1:
This summer's "hottest film" promises to be just that... [Thanks to Global Warming]
Truth 2: Gas prices have doubled since the Republicans came to power... [GOP Energy Policy?... 4$/gallon by The Fourth, anyone?]
Truth 3: Bush has perfected the aphasic linguistic style [Video]
Truth 4: GW has achieved mastery of "The stunned mullet stare".

The brutal contrast between the unintelligible President Bush and the former VP is so marked that it actually causes me to wince.
Charismatically, eloquently and coherently, Al Gore explores and demonstrates the alarming rate of decline in our planet's health in the film: "An Inconvenient Truth" [wide-release expected mid-May]

With breathtaking photography, highschool science and a simple yet effective Powerpoint presentation, the man who should have been the 43rd President of The United States defines and explains Global Warming in such clear terms that even GW could follow.

'freedom must be exercised to stay in shape!'

I think Dubya is autistic, myself. He just wants to smash Lionel train sets all day, dressed in a cowboy hat and a teddy. But the boys at the Pentagon decided to attach an electromagnetic apparatus to Dubya's nuts, getting by Pavlovian degrees that plethora of non-plussed looks, all of which obviously hide a bootless rage.

I just can't wait until he screams at a press conference: "there goes the choo-choo!"

And global warming is bad. And Bush will go down as the biggest disaster in the history of the American executive branch, period.

Dubya by any other name would sound like... George?

Help!. My big mouth has got me into trouble again! :)
