What the...?

Am I the only one who thinks that it's a tiny bit hypocritical of the left-wing loonies out in California to waste taxpayer money, not to mention the carbon emissions, to try to force those two stupid whales back out into the ocean?

There seems to be no limit to the lengths people will go to trying to save these whales. No amount of (tax) money that is too excessive. The Coast Guard is out there too. That's taxpayer money. Not to come across as heartless, but wouldn't it have been better to just let nature take it's course? Haven't we humans messed around with nature enough? Wasn't Al Gore just winning an Oscar for telling us how horrible it is when human activity affects nature?

For crying out loud, which is it?!?!

So in this case not only are these people inserting themselves into the natural cycle of life and death (the circle of life, right Simba?), but they are using fossil fuel powered boats to do it! And topping it off, of course, are the wasted tax dollars. Money which, obviously, should be going to rebuild New Orleans below sea level; in order to ensure a steady supply of victims during the next hurricane or when the icebergs all melt next year.

I can't even begin to imagine how a person can rationalize this kind of hypocrisy. But I guess they have plenty of practice, as highlighted by this blog report from an Al Gore speech. Scroll down to the pictures of the trucks in the parking lot.

I guarantee that I could write a blog about the hypocrisy of rightwingers too, but lefties make it sooooo easy.
