Al Gore should be held accountable for inciting people to this kind of religious fervor. His movie of lies has warped the little minds of the World. This kind of activity will become more prevalent unless stiff penalties are handed down. The UK seems to be a Mecca for the GW/CC Cultist.
 
Passengers' fury as climate change protest at Stansted airport forces dozens of flights to be cancelled
 
Climate change protesters stormed Stansted Airport today in an astonishing breach of security that brought flights to a standstill.
 
More than 50 protesters from the Plane Stupid group cut through fencing in the early hours before chaining themselves together just yards from the runway.
 
Thousands of furious passengers left stranded after dozens of flights were cancelled and others seriously delayed had to be kept calm by armed police.
 
The incident, which is hugely embarrassing for airport operator BAA, is believed to be the first time demonstrators have managed to occupy one of Britain's major airports.

I'm always amazed at how these environmental groups use fascist tactics, to try and force others to agree with them. Maybe next time they can bring some Molotov cocktails and burn some planes?
 
Just another group of people who don't understand that people have the freedom to choose, and respect others' freedoms.

Indeed it is really a case of be careful what you wish for, you JUST WILL GET IT (might ,in the old days) Funny how they are well represented by the democratic party. UAW also!!
 
CNBC mentioned in reference to the low heating oil prices that it is EXTREMELY COLD in the NorthEast. Uncharacteristic for a LONG PERIOD.

I saw a similar story over the weekend, but honestly, did they really expect that the reality of the office wouldn't drag him back to the center?
 
"Barack Obama's pledge to make the United States a leader in confronting global warming raised hopes that his election would rapidly end the long impasse in international negotiations over climate change, but the timing of the presidential transition has severely dimmed those expectations as the current round of talks comes to a head this week in Poland."

Senator Frank announced (heard that on again CNBC) that a auto bail out deal could come as early as later this afternoon (MONDAY MONDAY MONDAY)
 
Funny, as how the biggggg three only make money on their BIG trucks (AKA SUV's) Indeed, the UAW president understands this also. So if SUV's and other big cars are now ... verboten...... not so much as a PEEP as to how they propose to get profitable with out them!!!??? UAW are not backing down one iota on wage concessions, as they have loudly proclaimed earlier so called "concessions"...!!!!
 
This is better than (fake) reality TV.

But we will save on the newspaper bill. They will all be gone. That will make the tree huggers happy. I'm glad it was the young people that voted this bunch in. They are going to be stuck with the enormous debt.
