Crowing about arrogranceAnother case of "Do as I say, but don't
do as I do."
I'm really beginning to wonder about Sheryl Crow. Emphasis
added.
First, I am deeply concerned over where we are as a nation. We are so blessed to live in a country where we enjoy so many rights that other countries cannot even begin to imagine. However, what terrifies me is not what we are ignoring about the state of our planet but the fact that we seem to have lost touch with our connection to the earth. We have risen to great heights of arrogance in our refusal to acknowledge that the earth is changing. We hold steadfast to our belief that nothing can happen to us as a people. We get into our oversized, war-machine-like vehicles, get on our cell phones and blackberries, and avoid having human contact all day long. I really wish that celebrities would quit trying to speak for humanity. Let me put this simply. Yes the Earth is changing. I officially acknowledge that. However, I do not accept that the planet is changing in the way that the global warming apologists claim that it is. Nor do I believe that it is our fault. And for the record, my connection to the Earth is just fine. I also tire of this demand that we do more for global warming when the person doing the demanding ignores her own suggestions. Do you know the size of her entourage? Three tractor trailers, four buses, and six cars. I'm not kidding. Posted: Mon - May 7, 2007 at 05:20 AM
