During Earth Hour, Lights Stay On At White House And Goracle Event

Written By : William Teach

As the useless man made global warming gesture of Earth Hour passed through the Eastern time zone, I wonder what happened?

Other sites expected to participate in the U.S. were businesses on the glittering Las Vegas strip and the Mount Rushmore presidential monument in South Dakota. The lights stayed on at the White House, U.S. Capitol and the Lincoln and Washington monuments, though they were switched off at the Smithsonian Institution and the National Portrait Gallery.

They couldn’t even turn the lights off for a single hour? Heck, most of us who live in Reality Land™ turn the lights and electric using objects off when we leave the room. But, hey, wouldn’t want Obama wandering around in the dark (there’s a joke in there I’ll let ferment) in the White House……wait, what?

WEEKEND GUIDANCE AND PRESS SCHEDULE FOR SATURDAY, MARCH 27 AND SUNDAY, MARCH 28, 2010

The President will spend the weekend at Camp David. He will return to the White House on Sunday evening. The arrival on the South Lawn is open press.

So he left all the lights on and he wasn’t even there? Bad Barry! Same for Congress, which is on Easter break. How about Al Gore?

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid spent Saturday evening with former Vice President Al Gore headlining a fundraising event at the Rio Hotel and Casino. The annual Jefferson-Jackson dinner benefits Clark County Democrats.

Vice President Gore spoke about the Democratic party’s greatest accomplishments and what’s in store for the future.

Nearly a 1,000 people attended the fundraiser. Gore said Nevadans need senator Reid to keep his job so he can continue fighting for job creation, education and clean energy.

I’ve searched and searched and searched, and in no story can I find any mention that they paid even lip service to Earth Hour. Actually, I can find a total of three stories, the above, and here and here. You’d think some story would mention it. Especially in lite of Gore blowing off Earth Hour last year.

Elsewhere, Anthony Watts proves that Earth Hour is just as a much a failure in California this year as it was last year.

There were fireworks in Seattle, so as their residents weren’t scared of the dark.

Wasn’t the point to turn all the electricity off? Fail tag.

BTW, climate alarmists, tweeting about turning off your lights during Earth Hour is a major Fail!

The only house in my neighborhood with no lights on was an empty one. No hippies here.

However, millions do have regard for the Earth.

“Failure of today’s people to care for the earth’s resources is akin to stealing the future of the coming generations,” said Manila Archbishop Gaudencio Rosales.

Having regard for the Earth is a great thing, Real, and I mean that sincerely. That said, AGW is a made up issue. We would be better served concentrating on real environmental issues.

Very true, Teach. Developing better recycling technologies (that don’t have to be enforced at gunpoint or require subsidies), more efficient and next generation power systems (where’s the love for the new pebble-bed nuclear reactor models?), exploration and — yes — exploitation of resources outside of Earth.

Maybe if we want to make sure future generations have resources, we need to start investing in reality, as opposed to the feel-good wanking off of Earth Hour or the pseudo-disaster of AGW.

I agree with Teach. Protecting the environment is a noble cause. Fearmongering over the ridiculous theory of MMGW should be criminal.

The EPA should be using its funds to clean up brownfield sites, or stopping serious polluters. Municipal governments dump thousands of tons of raw sewage into US waterways every year due to insufficient capacity; how about focusing on that for a bit?

Instead of trying to bankrupt industry through taxation and penalties, how about working to develop technology that will allow them to be cleaner without forcing them to raise prices?

The US is floating on coal. How about working to develop clean coal industries that are usable?

Instead we have to hear the constant lies about “climate change.”

I’m sure the light at the white house was from the messiah. From the way libs fawn over him, I’m sure the douchebag gives off his own glow.

There someone is posting as me again, and said something against obama. I would never do this as Obama is a president who is getting things done. i’ll soon have enough health ensurance to keep me and the kids safe.

William Teach: this was not a comment by the real Vegata. Completely different IP and stuff.

“i’ll soon have enough health ensurance to keep me and the kids safe.”

Now that he has given you the gift of perfect health, when will the Anointed One teach you proper spelling and grammar?

Can someone delete the last comment under my name please? I’m no lib and I’m certainly no supporter of the socialist piece of crap curretly stinking up the white house.

Its too bad that there is a poster stealing my neam. President Obama is working real hard to make this a great country again. he cares for the people and isd looking after us who have too much trouble to do it all on our own. Call him left if you want and if its true then left is good for the people. And if billow wants to correct speiilin he can do it to the other one too. And mabey even learn not to blaspheme against the true Anointed – i guess you don’t believe in the Lord.

However, millions do have regard for the Earth.

I bet you didn’t even know that it takes more electricity to turn a light off for only one hour, then back on than to leave it running for that hour, moron. Another case of a “feel-good” stupidity that has nothing to do with reality. Why don’t you stop “hurting the Earth” by using a computer that runs on electricity, hypocrite?

As they say, I’ll believe in man-made global warming when the people who say they believe start acting like they believe.

The comments are doing that weird thing again where it shows up as someone else’s name.

Which specific comment do you want wacked?
