Poor Al Gore. First he has the presidency stolen from him by evil George W. Bush, and now Bush has stolen the famous Gore Effect:
It’s been a chilly welcome for America’s president: The Mideast, known for blazing sun and scorching winds, has been hit with an uncharacteristic wave of heavy rain, frigid gales — and even a smattering of snow …
The weather affected Bush’s trip from the get-go. During his first stop in Israel, morning fog grounded his helicopter, forcing him to take a motorcade to the West Bank from Jerusalem. His plane touched down in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday amid heavy rains. In the Saudi Arabia capital of Riyadh on Monday and Tuesday, the president was greeted by overcast skies and temperatures hovering around freezing.
Bush is even hanging out with a crowd who seem much like Gore’s brigade of wealthy environmentalist hypocrites:
The president was escorted into the wood-paneled, marble-columned hall by the king’s son and preceded by two men carrying silver incense holders that left a trail of pungent smoke.
He’s in Al Gore’s house!
Heh! Is Bush considering a post-presidential career as an environmental messiah?

No offense, but someone needs to say it. This is all Oz’s fault.
Part of our cultural conquest program demands everyone be on the same weather schedule.
With you guys totally screwing up the seasons, the adjustments to weather patterning have to be that much more radical.
Now, just a head’s up. No whining and complaining when we start ripping the earth open and laying it out flat. Once we get everyone on the same day/time system, socializing on the net will be that much easier.
You mean, George Bush is the hidden imam of the Global Warmenate?
Entirely possible, paco. Consider that his private home is already environmentally friendly.
And possibly deeper than anyone knows, paco. Consider that Lord Goreacle™ is merely a failed presidential candidate. Whereas Bush held two full terms in office, in spite of all the dissenters and Sauron Soros could do. Bush might well retire from the White House…..and smite* Lord Goreacle™ for His heresy.
I fear for the future of the world.
=====================================
*: “Smite” as in being locked into a room, and being forced to watch An Inconvenient Truth 24 hours a day for the rest of his life…..with the air conditioning set to 60 F, tightly rationed toilet paper, and a single flickering fluorescent light bulb.

- oh dear, what is in the water? (and can have i have some?)
Bush was treated to an arrival ceremony at Riyadh’s al-Murabba Palace and The National Museum that featured the dance. Before his tour, with drums beating and performers chanting, Bush held a sword over his shoulder and swayed arm-in-arm to the music with his host, Prince Salman, King Abdullah’s brother.
Sheepishly grinning, Bush seemed to get into the dancing, in a presidentially reserved sort of way.
George Bush is the anti-Christ. Expect plagues of locusts and drought next.

- paco.
Its much deeper than that even. This site reveals the ugly truth!! (turn up the speakers for the demonic music)A truth of this sort is worth at least 2 JFK’s or 5 9/11’s on the truthiness scale.Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2008 01 16 at 04:02 PM • permalink

GrimmyDon’t blame us, I think that the northern hemisphere should cooperate and get into line with the southern hemisphere. I mean, really, people just won’t be happy until the world is a steady 21 degrees all over every day forever.
Will they.#7
As long as he hasn’t been taking dancing lessons from the Australian Minister for Plastic Bags and Interpretive Dance for Gaia.
They probably fear plagues of pigs and uncovered women more.
If by “pigs” you mean “barbecued ribs”, it sounds like heaven to me. More fools they.

….carrying a plate full of plastic pancakes and plastic sausage.
And the “syrup” was crude oil.

That’ll work nicely, Ash!! I need to bum the recipe for a fantastic “rub” for barbecued ribs, though. That’ll require a trip to Pensacola, Florida, so I’ll be a day or two. Direct negotiations, involving serious quantities of booze, are essential and sensitive.

- Speaking of people in other people’s houses:
“I strongly doubt that revelations about Al Qaeda leaders’ intimate relations with Moscow would boost their popularity. Rather than being ‘lions of Allah’, as they call each other, they would be exposed as moles of Putin.”
Troof is Stronger Than Fiction
But will the Bush Effect cause the Saudis to instruct the other Arabs to stop shelling Israelis Jews.

It was hard to tell from the pictures, but I think one of the incense-carriers was our own, Dr. Fruitfly, David Suzuki. He is, as most of you know, a jester in the royal court of the Goreacle.
P.S. – Wonderful news on the scan Tim. We’ll keep the prayers and best wishes going.
