Hot Air?

I have just returned from my first successful duck hunt, and I froze my ass off. I could have used some of Al Gore's hot global warming air to unfreeze my feet. This picture says it all....and the fact that he won't debate the "global warming" issue because the debate is over is insane. Yesterday these holier than thou politicians sat on a panel to discuss ways to help with the impending planetary crisis. I say my ass......you idiots should have been in the blind with me this morning.

My wife drives a tank of a vehicle not because I want to destroy the planet, but because of the freedoms I have, I chose to buy her the biggest, safest vehicle possible to protect her and the kids. Yes the planet may be warming, but last time I checked, my local weatherman can hardly predict the weather 2 days from now.....and we are to believe that in 20 years New York will be under water? Please...for every doom and gloom article or movie, there is a counter-argument. Kind of like scientists tell us one month that chocolate may help stave off cancer, while the next month a new study says chocolate contributes to cancer.

I was told as a child not to litter. I still to this day try not to litter. According to scientists, the earth's air and water are cleaner now than 20 years ago. I am tired of being made to feel guilty because we have a large car, a large house, and eat certain types of food. We as a family are not trying to destroy anything. We are trying to do what is best for our family, and we actually do conserve when possible. But I do not try to scare my kids into thinking that if we continue driving them around town, in 20 years the town will be flood land. Cool it, guys. There are proven issues we need to be more concerned about.
