2. Whoa! I just quoted The Hippie Dippy Weatherman...
In another thread!

"Continuted darkness through the night, with scattered light in the early morning hours."

3. Just got out of the car and was listening to hateful Levin (no progressive radio here after
3)....and Mark Levin played George Carlin's riff on the environmental movement. Levin, I'm sure, understood what Carlin was really saying but chose to try to get his audience to interpret Carlin differently. Pretty reprehensible of him, as always.

Hope someday these RW listeners learn that their idols are lying to them, keeping them in the dark, and full of mistrust and misinformation and hate for "the other team"

Carlin was funny though.

4. Wow - where's the outrage?
Carlin calls out environmentalists as arrogant, pompous, self-righteous a-holes and not even a whimper of protest.

7. So Carlin really doesn't hate environmentalists?
He had me fooled.
