Let Them Eat Biofuel

Who Should Go There?

Observers of recent food riots have wondering who’ll be the environmental Marie Antoinette when the hyper-emotional, carbon footprint panic bites the asses of the global warmer community and a hungry public stands there with bloated bellies, scratching their mosquito-enclircled heads and wondering, “What the f**k?”

When the hungry people of the world become, uh, fed up, with the high cost of food, when they can’t buy enough food even if they have money to buy it and when they’re starving because there’s not enough food to be had, whose head should they chop off?

My pick — Al Gore, with Laurie David standing in the cutter’s deck.

March 20, 2008. From Senator Obama: “Look, I got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby. I don’t’ want them punished …. With an STD.”

That’s punished with a baby, conception as a mistake.

The blogs and talk radio were all over the remark, of course, but it’s an indication of how protective the national media is of their chosen candidate that this disturbing comment went mostly unnoticed by them. After the initial outrage, nothing in the past two weeks. If words matter, as Obama has famously said, then “punished with a baby” should matter.
