Lear Jet Liberals

Great article by Debra J. Saunders. I've always thought it was funny how the hypocritical super rich of the Left lecture us about global warming, then get into their private jets to head to another session somewhere else in the country.


LIMOUSINE liberals, move over. You've been out-glammed by Lear Jet liberals who burn beaucoup fossil fuels in the sky as they soar around the planet fighting global warming.

Last week, they flew to their Mecca, the Clinton Global Initiative conference in New York City. For the left-leaning and loaded, this is the meeting that has it all -- the mega-rich paying to be seen caring about poor people and the environment, while posing for photos with former President Bill Clinton.

I don't believe these people care *anything* about "global warming," most of them probably don't even know what it is. They want to be "seen."

You see, they care so much more about the environment than President Bush because they support the Kyoto global-warming pact, which they believe would save the planet from greenhouse gases, if only Bush had not rejected it. (Never mind that Clinton never asked the Senate to ratify the pact, probably because senators voted 95-0 for a resolution rejecting any treaty that exempted China and India.)

Empty suits, dresses, and heads trying to convince us that they're better than we are because they care SO much about the environment...as long as it doesn't get in the way of their cocktail parties and photo ops.
