OK, so I tuned into the star-studded telethon, Hand In Hand, because I'm a sucker for telethons and phoning in a contribution. After all, kudos to anyone, even ne'er-do-well climate crusading entertainment celebrities, who want to raise money in the name of recovery for those who's lives have been immeasurably disrupted.
But, they just couldn't stay on topic. Right out of the chute, the first words of the first entertainer, Stevie Wonder, (who has been one of my op ten favorites since he debuted Finger Tips Part 2) made the show about Global Warming. He said anyone who doesn't believe in global warming is either too blind or un-intelligent. Well, to use his terms, are these people too blind to realize you don't get people to open up their wallets for your cause by insulting them? At that point, I had seen all I cared to see from this punchbowl of stupidity.
And, who knew that Climate Change caused the recent magnitude 8.1 earthquake in Mexico, per the declaration of renowned climatologist, Beyonce? I saw this video clip on one those entertainment shows that follow the local news. I'm sure she's just parroting carbon hucksters like Al Gore and climate expert Jennifer Lawrence, but can't she have enough self-respect to at least do some research prior to making a fool of herself?
For the sake of amusement, could the deluded crusaders of anthropogenic climate change just focus on reality for a moment. According to the National Hurricane Center, the decade with the most major hurricanes (Cat 3, 4, 5) since 1851 has been the 1940s. There were TEN majors in that decade, followed by a fairly steady gradual decline since then.
It took the carbon footprint of over 100 entertainers to raise $44 million. One person, JJ Watt, defensive end for Houston Texans, has raised over $34 million (initial goal was $200K, including his ante of $100K) on his YouCaring page. And, he did it without insulting the intelligence or integrity of anyone.
