I'm going to stay in bed all day to reduce my carbon footprint, and they can use that to offset their weekend splurge. On the other hand, most of the attendees probably don't have jobs, so there are your offsets there.

One of my daughter's friends is at the UFO Convention (her boyfriend has relatives in Roswell)... I'm sure she's having a lot of fun. Wish I had asked her to bring us back something. I'll see if she's got pictures to share when she gets back.

I was in Roswell last winter, and it is really a hoot. UFO museum, gift shops, etc. The town has really cashed in on the whole thing. I don't know which event would be best for a tin foil hat consession, but either one would be good.

I laughed at them in the 60's and voted for George Wallace. I'm laughing at them now and will vote for Fred Thompson. I don't change and they won't either. But at least I have a good laugh.

I listened to some of it on XM by accident. It was typical, all talking for so long that I switched back to MUSIC.

I can not believe that so many people do not see what a hypocrite and snake oil salesmen Algore is.

It is amazing to me that these same people could be so gullible.

It explains why even if you have 1/2 brain in America you can do well.

The again I may be wrong. The "event" was a major flop. We all get distorted by the MSM constant bombardment of their agenda and actually start to think their issues have some merit.

They don't!

They are all gonna be proven correct when the sun starts its escalation to a red giant and swallows mercury, venus and most likely us. Bunch of nimrods.

Oh yeah I forgot this.

Officials at Live Earth Johannesburg have blamed the effects of climate change for poor audience attendance at Saturday's (07Jul07) South African event. Organiser John Langford believes extremely cold weather in the region - it snowed last week (ends06Jul07) for the first time in a quarter of a century - kept people away from the concert.

It fuckin snowed in Africa. But we are all going to die in a fiery plasma flood of some sort according Algore.Just goes to show there are people who will believe ANYTHING you tell them if you are famous.

The music sucked, too.

Speaking of hypocracy, I didn't watch any of the concerts, but sources tell me that somebody named Shakira put on quite an indecent display. What ever happened to Tipper and Al making a stand against this kind of behavior? Seems that they've done a complete 180 degree turn.

nice catch steve- I was thinking about how Tipper would like to be burning those records back in the day. I also got a big kick out of gore saying coincidentaly that he'd "lost his love for politics" the day after his hermaphodite son got busted for drugs. priceless.

Whats a little 180 deg turn when you are going in circles? Al is the new doctor of spin.

Are tinfoil hats environmentally friendly? They might want to take that into account. They need to tread carefully; I'm not even sure what the ramifications would be when a tinfoil hat is worn by an asshat.

In other news, how on earth did I miss the Shakira thing? Granted, her music is crap, but I wouldn't have minded seeing the indecent display....

Al Gor-abge rocks. He looks like 300 pounds of rocks in a suit, and has rocks for brains. Can the liberals ask for anyone better to represent them?

Gore is an idiot. I concur. But he also is making awareness of a problem that we should not ignore. It kind of reminds me of seeing Dubya's face when he was sitting in the classroom and heard the news about the twin towers. Talk about the "Duh" factor.

Teresa - The BDS is getting worse. Get help! This post had absolutely nothing to do with GWB, but you had to throw him in there. Cindy Sheehan is gonna run for Pelosi's seat if she doesn't introduce articles of impeachment against Bush. You might want to send some contributions to her campaign.

Manmade global warming is bullshit. If you believe in it you have a "Duh" factor of your own. Five or six years ago, Pope Algore I said we had ten years to mend our ways. He is now saying we have ten years to mend our ways. Five years from now it will be the same bullshit and you'll probably still lap it up. But that's OK. Bush is a moron and that pretty much describes your thought processes.

Now go off somewhere and cry because I was mean to you and pointed out how stupid some of your comments are.

Teresa, Enlighten yourself. It's the SUN. There is not a damn thing we can do about it.

kerrcarto - Don't confuse Teresa with facts. In her fantasy world, everything wrong on the planet is his fault because he is a moron. See how simple that is? No thinking required. She is the perfect Dimocrat. "Bush lied. People died."

Aawww, come on. All you have to do is change a lightbulb to save the world! BWahhhhahahahah. Live earth--What a ridiculous waste.

"asshatery". Call up Webster's. They need to add a word.

"I would have liked to have had the tinfoil hat concession for either event."

I'm still laughing at that one...

Teresa-
Read and heed.

Your hatred for Bush over-powers your rational thought. Granted, I don't have a son serving OUR country, and I don't know what you're going through when it comes to your concern for his well being (I am concerned for ALL Soldier's well being) but you don't look at the entire picture.

There's a lot more to this than just 'Dubya' and his cronies... The fact that you place all the blame on him makes me throw your whole comment in the crapper. (FLUSH)

FLUSH!

Teresa, I don't much like him either (for different reasons) but girl, you gotta get off that KoolAid and onto some Manwich.

The ratings for NBC's three hour broadcast of Live Earth on Saturday night was only 2.7 million viewers. Didn't NBC get better Saturday Night Ratings with the XFL? LOL

Darrell a rerun of Monsters Incorporated beat the concerts in ratings. Now that is pathetic! Being that most people have seen that movie eleven thousand times with their kids, but would still watch it before the concert says something.

Denny I forgot that facts will make their heads explode. Sorry. I will try to use emotions instead next time.

"But he also is making awareness of a problem that we should not ignore"

WRONG TERESA! That is exactly what we should do, ignore the claims of man made global warming. If any of the wack jobs want to help mankinds plight, they might suggest we start looking at ways of coping, in the future, with the natural temperature flucutations this world has gone through long before our fat asses ever got here and will continue to do long after they are gone. This would benefit mankind in the future. You know things like drought and heat resistant crops, better sources of energy, how to move slimebag liberals off coastal water ways so when they lose their "trailers" we the public don't have to pay for them and things like that. They'd probably get a lot more enthusiastic followers for those sorts of things, but then again, that would eliminate the non thinking person from the equation which is who they aim to cater too.

How about the UK's TAKE on this one? I'm not bothered at all by the language used, but the hypocrisy of the entire production is laughable to say the least.

Al Whore can suck another big one!

Let's see...In South Africa they blamed the low turn-out on bad weather- snow and cold temps, and the BBC blamed the terrible ratings on good weather.
These idiot libs have an answer for everything, other than admitting that the "talent" consisted of mostly washed-up has-beens nobody cares about.
And I'll add it snowed yesterday in Buenos Aries, Brazil, for the first time in 89 years.
God, libs are stupid...Teresa, get a freakin' clue, you imbecilic moron. Bush's reaction to 9-11 was because he did not want to frighten the children. Your stupidity is amazing. Are you related to Sally?

I was pissed off that my x-m was playing this crap, and told them so. Argh! 10 years ago the dang glaciers were our worst enemy, coffe was bad, and margerine was a wonder drug. Teresa, it's not your fault! It's not blame America,or Bush, get over your white guilt already? You want pollution, go to China or N. Korea. They cook on dung stoves. Sir Dudley, please pass this person her tinfoil hat?

The Arctic Monkeys weren't the only ones who dissed the ridiculousness of it all. One of rock's elder statesmen also chimed in.

BTW, Denny, love your blog. Keep up the good work.
