When I woke up on Sunday, March 30, I realized that the Husband and I had missed that idiotic “Earth Hour,” when people were supposed to engage in yet another in what seems to be an endless series of pointless symbolic gestures to show their concern for the planet that we are gradually destroying with our air conditioners, our plastic bottles and our old-fashioned light bulbs–talk about “excuse me for living’–by turning off our lights for an hour. It had been my intention to make up for all that darkness on March 29 by turning on all the lights inside and outside of my house, and leaving them on all night. After all, if it’s better to light one little candle than to sit and curse the darkness, how much better to turn on all my lights and sit and curse the socialists who have duped some well-intentioned, emotionally-driven types to participate in these silly self-congratulatory rituals. Sadly, I completely forgot, and so we had only our usual few dozen lights on. Today, I have another chance, it being Earth Day and all. I know it’s Earth Day because I saw that half-wit who does the weather on ABC’s Good Morning America, Sam Champion, babbling about it this morning before I had a chance to dive for the remote. Speaking of Spacey Sam, check out this story. Last Friday, when presented with the fact that alarmist scenes of collapsing glaciers in Al Gore’s “Aa Inconvenient Truth” crockumentary was completely fake and computer-generated, he said “Audiences expect Hollywood to twist fact into fiction. But Gore’s documentary does the opposite, using a fake shot to make a real point, that ice shelves are disappearing, and vanishing ice means global warming.” I am not making this up. Yes, I believe he is allowed to walk around off the leash. If this quote doesn’t prove once and for all that all this man-made global warming stuff is a secular religion to its devotees, I don’t know what does. By the way, I wonder if anyone has asked John McCain about this phony footage?

Speaking of presidential politics, and tough questions, today, in PA, which is holding its big dem primary today, presumptive loser Barack Hussein Obama had another one of those cranky moments, which you may have noticed happens whenever anyone asks him anything more challenging than “Senator, is it difficult to always be the smartest person in the room?” or “Senator, what’s it like to know that everyone is depending on you to ensure the survival of humanity?” This time, he was asked about another one of his anti-American supporters, this one notable for the fact that he is a former president of the United States, the King of the Useful Idiots, Jimmy Carter. As most of you know, his latest demonstration of his claim to the title is his meeting with leader of the bloodthirsty terrorists group Hamas, Khaled Meshaal. As you would expect, since BHO is the 2nd coming of JC (no, not that one, despite what his followers believe, but rather Jimmy Carter), Carter is supporting Obama. In an annoying, coy sort of way, he’s made that clear. So today when asked about Carter’s latest dumbass move, Obama refused to answer, instead pleading “Why can’t I just eat my waffle?” Boo-hoo, Big Ears. Let me see …why can’t you just eat your waffle? MMM …how about because you’re running for president?

I will be watching the returns tonight, of course, but part of me wishes the whole thing would turn out like it did last night on the WWE.

I forgot how much fun wrestling can be.

As far as Earth Day goes, I have to stop now so I won’t miss my chance to celebrate this time. I’m going to go run some errands, and even though it’s only about 70℉, I plan to turn up my car A/C full blast. Don’t worry: I have a sweater.
