Three feet of snow is racing towards Washington, D.C.
Either Al Gore is there, currently, with his Anthropogenic Global Warming road show, some sort of vote on Climate Change is happening, or the crooks behind Climategate are doing SOMETHING in the Capital…because whenever a freak blizzard hits, it seems timed to whallop these alarmists and cult members.
Can anyone directly connect a ManBearPig sighting or other AGW Church event with this latest enormous snow storm — like the one that clobbered Copenhagen during the Hopenchangen Conference that exposed the AGW Church as a giant fraud in December?
It would be HILARIOUS if Gore was giving a lecture at Georgetown or something this weekend, and the universe sent every storm cloud available to snow him silly.

ManBearPig was spotted near the Capitol building.
Wearing a polar bear suit.

Ah . . . you guys are too funny. Good question. Good call. My other half is originally from Tennessee. And his brother still lives there. The brother left a voice message for my guy last weekend, saying there was a heckuva snow in East Tennessee. Manbearpig must have been home for the weekend! I hadn’t thought of that until this post.
February 5, 2010 at 3:29 pm
Do not anger Manbearpig. You wouldn’t like him when he’s angry. He’s super cereal!
February 5, 2010 at 3:29 pm
I wonder if the Obamas are making plans to jet off to some warm location?
February 5, 2010 at 4:55 pm
No, but he did take the time to pay a visit somewhere in my childhood home town earlier today. And of course, that meant people in the area couldn’t leave work early enough so they could get home before it got too dangerous on the road. Teh Won only thinks of his own comfort.

I study Geography, not once have I ever believe that man was causing huge climate change, I find the idea crazy, I have been called: a right wing conspiracy theorist, global warming denier, climate change skeptic. no I am a rational person and Scientist who does not jump to conclusions and always has a health mistrust of what Government and international institutions say as so many people have special interests in them.
Al’ Gore has made millions and gained so much star status because of Global warming, and now he looks like a Southern Democratic fool.
February 5, 2010 at 5:06 pm
Like I say to everyone. “If he really believed it, then he would walk the walk; not just talk the talk.”
February 5, 2010 at 3:52 pm
Dear ManBearPig:
I pray that 1) the Goracle is in DC to save man from global warming, 2) he doesn’t bring a winter coat b/c he hasn’t bothered to own a coat b/c earth has a temperature, like a really really bad fever, so why bother, and 3) he gets snowed in in some crappy, tiny dungeon of a room w/o heat (b/c putting the heat on kills earth) and cannot get any of that cookies and pot he so likes. Oh, and that he also runs out of toilet paper and can’t get more.
February 5, 2010 at 3:57 pm
Off topic: Check this out! Pelosi slamming the president b/c he’s not creating enough new jobs. And even going so far as implying he’s worse than Hoover! AND he’s not focusing on those who need help the most! (Hm, is he devoting too much time and money to the unions then?)
Oh. Except she’s talking about Bush. In 2003.

How about we all spam the hell out of Nancy! Since she’s speaker – she’s supposed to be available to every last American, not just those in her district. I mean, we know she’s not. All the more reason to clog her inbox to high heaven with the following text:

Spam away! She might need a reminder, about how committed to the American people she was in 2003.

I am sad that he was exploiting her death that way, but there is more to the story. She did have insurance, but didn’t use it because of the deductible. She was already stage 4 when diagnosed, so the treatment she was receiving would have been palliative.

Did you read the comment (Bob from Long Island, I think): Her tombstone will read, “I campaigned for Obama, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.”
February 5, 2010 at 9:21 pm
I saw that comment too.
February 5, 2010 at 11:16 pm
Another commenter noted that she was cremated, so Obama literally went up in flames….
Heh.

Maybe Obama can show up at the funeral and slap a couple bumper stickers on the coffin.
February 6, 2010 at 1:32 am
I am gagging about all the LIES Obama said in the paragraphs quoted in all seriousness at that site. …
Yeah, right. Us Republicans are so eeeeeeeeeevil and uncaaaaaaaaring. We prob’ly wanted that lady to DIE. And no doubt we all have great insurance and humongous trust funds too.
Me, I only have Medicare. Hubby, he’s got nada. Not even the catastrophic policy that woman who died had. But I guess that puts us in the Other Class of Republicans … bitter clingers only slightly more evolved than the pond scum outside our swastika-bedecked trailers.
Those are the stereotype, no? Trust fund blue bloods leading toothless brainless sheep?
February 6, 2010 at 10:19 am
but one thing said: she didn’t go to the doctor because she didn’t have insurance? That’s absurd. There are plenty of doctors who take ‘indigent’ patients – or clinics for poor people, or heck, planned parenthood does exams for cheapo.
This is about telling us that *we* don’t have the responsibility to take care of our own health. That ‘someone else’ should ‘look after’ us – that ‘someone else’ should pay for it.
If you don’t want to go to the doctor, fine – but there are plenty of doctors who will work with you on a payment plan, and plenty of hospitals that treat cancer patients who don’t have insurance.
Heck, I have a friend who had a BROKEN NECK and at points in time did not have insurance. She had plenty of operations and plenty of doctor visits. And is still paying hospital bills, but no one would let her DIE.
Seriously – that’s absurd.

In 1981 my mother in law died as a result of having breast cancer.
She was first diagnosed with the breast cancer just a few months after my son was born. What is worse is that the cancer had already spread to her lymph nodes prior to its discovery.
It is not health insurance that is important when it comes to the discovery of breast cancer. It is the fact that women do not examine their breasts for lumps and in Australia the age for getting free breast screens is over 50 years (even though a large percentage of women are in fact diagnosed when they are still in their 40s).
My mother in law lasted around 3 years after her initial diagnosis. The fact that she had private health insurance meant being able to get into hospital faster than those who relied upon free health to see a doctor. She had treatment in Sydney, but it was to no avail.
It could be that my mother in law’s cancer was the aggressive type, just like it was aggressive for other younger women, some being in their 20s when they died.
There was an actress, Belinda Emmett. She was in her 20s when her breast cancer was diagnosed. It was an aggressive form of cancer and she passed away. I cannot remember some of the other names of women who have also died. I am talking wealthy women here, those that can afford the expensive treatments.
Universal health insurance does not save the lives of women who have breast cancer. What will save lives is ensuring that all women get access to free or at least at reduced cost breast screening. It is that important.
February 5, 2010 at 4:54 pm
I’d like to exile ManBearPig to Antarctica.
Meanwhile, Teh Won can just keep flapping his gums all he wants about new jobs being created. Hubby got laid off today because companies who hired his company for consulting work can’t get $$ for big projects because banks aren’t loaning. Gaggggghh . . .
February 5, 2010 at 4:54 pm
I live just outside DC in VA and yep, we’re expecting up to 3 feet of snow. Very pretty right now.
Gore was out in SF recently for the unveiling of the iPad.
February 5, 2010 at 5:38 pm
Was that when the had a little eathquake to the north my chance??
February 5, 2010 at 8:37 pm
Probably to claim he invented it.

Why is he called ManBearPig?
February 5, 2010 at 6:09 pm
That’s so funny! I was just thinking the same thing!
February 5, 2010 at 6:28 pm
Comedy Central’s South Park has made fun of Al Gore several times. In those shows, he tries to convince the children of the existence of a mythical character that’s “half man, half bear and half pig”, hence ManBearPig. Kinda like him trying to convince people of AGW.
February 6, 2010 at 1:42 am
it was a really good episode of South Park… with Gore being alarmist about the manbearpig. It has stuck ever since… yes I watched the episode and it was hilarious.
February 5, 2010 at 7:19 pm
After the character in the South Park episode.
ManBearPig
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
“ManBearPig”
South Park episode
“ManBearPig” is the sixth episode of the tenth season of Comedy Central’s South Park. It originally aired on April 26, 2006. The episode parodies global warming and the book and film An Inconvenient Truth.
Plot
Al Gore visits South Park Elementary School and is super duper serial …..im serial and he talks about the terrible ManBearPig, “half man and half bear-pig”, who roams the Earth and attacks humans for no reason at all. He also says throughout the episode that people will take him “serial”, which he uses apparently in place of the word “serious”, referencing a real-life appearance Al Gore made on The Oprah Winfrey Show before the episode aired, where he misunderstood a question regarding his favorite cereal.[1] Afterwards, the boys’ basketball game is interrupted by another visit from Al Gore, who is disguised (poorly) as the ManBearPig and claims to be “trying to spread ManBearPig awareness” by handing out flyers and bumper stickers.
February 5, 2010 at 7:23 pm
Oh, brother – I’ve got a lot to learn! Thanks. Should have thought of Wikipedia my own lazy self.
February 6, 2010 at 12:24 am
Half man, half bear and half pig.
Southpark is the closest thing to reality on TV today.

Bunches of us fled the Great Lakes ice-belt years ago. Figured the Texas sun would thaw years of chronic hypothermia. Little did we know BigManPear would sniff us out and torture us further with butt-freezin’ climate change. Don’t understand how Chi-Towners put up with what Lou Rawls useta call “The Hawk”.
Al’s carney act is getting too hack for my tastes, but here’s my take anyway:

February 5, 2010 at 7:12 pm
Well, India just created it’s own version of the IPCC, citing the unreliability of ManBearPig’s fellow Nobel laureates, but that’s more like rubbing salt in the wound, rather than the Big Man/Woman/Impersonal Force/Spaghetti Monster upstairs refuting their religion at the most inopportune time possible.
February 5, 2010 at 9:17 pm
And now the Dutch have pointed out another error, that it was stated 50% of the country was under sea level when actually it’s more like 25%.

Sorry OT, but FYI.
Michelle Obama Doesn’t Always Deliver on the Newsstand
It turns out that Michelle Obama is not general-interest magazines’ new Princess Diana, whose face on the cover regularly helped boost newsstand sales
A few early covers had weak sales, including Newsweek’s Dec. 1 issue, with 15% below average and More’s October issue, at 23% below average.
http://www.mediapost.com/publications/index.cfm?fa=Articles.showArticle&art_aid=103582#
Very interesting comments about this over at Advertising Age web site that first ran the article (where they tried every way they could to lie about how disastrous a big O on the cover is for the mags)! (Of course the O-BOUGHT TROLLS are attacking it still however.)
From that: By mlprice | Los Angeles April 6, 2009 01:10:49 pm:
Perhaps those of us that consume media are starting to reject what only the most blind cannot see is an obvious preference/bias towards certain political affiliations.
The desire to turn Michelle Obama into some kind of Princess Diana or Jackie Kennedy is obvious to anyone who’s stood in a supermarket checkout line lately, and rather than piquing our curiosity, it’s piquing resentment.
Quite frankly I have no respect for the opinions and ideas of Oprah Winfrey. I saw the cover of O at the market the other day.
I tried to imagine who would be interested in what Michelle Obama had to say to Opra Winfrey and I could only imagine the most intellectually vacuous people I know.

By nblack | carmel, IN April 7, 2009 10:42:56 am:
Mrs Obama as a fashion icon is absurd. She has far from a model’s figure and her clothes choice is not great.
If she really wants to empathize with middle America she needs to learn how to properly use a rake and shovel, plant things proper for the climate, and admit that when it is 96 degrees and 100% humidity she will have the gardeners out there pulling weeds in what remains – most of the arugula, etc. will have “bolted” from the heat and their age.
Naive and inexperienced- just like Barack.
By cecece | none, NJ April 7, 2009 11:09:57 am:
As someone who reads magazine’s at what my husband calls “an alarming rate,”…..I sometimes carry a half dozen or so onto an airplane at one time, I have to say…..Please Stop….I refuse to buy a magazine with Michele Obama’s face on the cover. Now I am as “curious” as the next person about our new first lady. However, it is such a turn off when it is obvious that you are trying to make her something so special that we have to drool over her. She is a first lady with resources most of us only dream off and she seems to be flaunting it. Most of us who read the better women’s magazines are educated, accomplished in our own right, are good mothers and great partners and lead busy lives. We know a snow job when we see one. I don’t read People or US and will gladly leave that to others who love that Tabloid style. The Obamas are interesting people as all our first families have been. They are just that…. people… not Gods and role models.

More Laugh Out Loud comments from there.
By moronpolitics | Garland, TX April 7, 2009 11:23:03 am:
Reality IS. You don’t just make it up. You can twist it a bit, but trying to market a horse-faced hopelessly rude person with no taste as a great beauty, personality and fashion guide? There just isn’t a thread of reality to hand the ten tons of B.S. on. Sorry.
By kmax2k1 | Pineville,, LA April 7, 2009 11:24:49 am:
The entire “historic” nature of Barack and Michelle Obama has been overplayed and overexposed. We get it !!! He’s the President and she’s the First Lady, but to make media darlings of them when they have done nothing is absurd.
Every article on Mrs. Obama is “she’s so wonderful”; “so like us”; “so loving and approachable” — this is the same woman who said last year regarding the $600 stimulus checks couples were to receive — “that’s just a pair of earrings”
By lbrendemuehl | Matthews, NC April 7, 2009 11:30:19 am:
It used to be public interest drove media coverage. Now it seems media coverage is trying to drive public interest. And they wonder why so many newspapers and magazines are losing circulation and going out of business….
..This is humiliating to see this woman on all the covers of magazines looking like she’s more ready for an Oprah makeover instead of the wife of a head of state! The media needs to end this slobbering love affair with these two incompetents!

I know I’m way slow, but I didn’t see this in the comments and I know the answer to the Boyz’ question. NOAA had to delay the announcement of their new “Climate Service” until the 8th because of the blizzard. Brietbart linked to the announcement: http://biggovernment.com/publius/2010/02/08/new-federal-climate-change-agency-forming/
