With apologies to Al Gore for the global warming. Way to go, Mister President, with the 'actions speak louder ...' Now I know you had less control there than at home, but put that on your 'To Do List', modeling, that is.

"Nixon's in China, 1972, Was A Long One."
We've never had a left-wing media whose idea of journalism was counting the number of cars in a motorcade, so we don't know the specific number.

Yes a President who claims we all must drive more efficient cars, use less energy and turn down the heat does not believe this applies to him. Of course we all must be more compliant just don't expect the same from the dear leader. Anyone see a pattern here. Do as I say not what I do.

The Chinese must have organized and managed the motercade. Somebody said, last month, in a news article (editorial?) that obama's crowd couldn't organize a two car funeral!

A couple of large dump trucks could have hauled that whole concentration of BS-ers to the guest house with a much smaller carbon footprint.
But, I forgot about the tons and tons that dear leader Obama spewed out on his Asian Apology Tour.
TO: vladimir estragon - if it wasn't at Al Capone's funeral, it was another liberal Democrat.
