    "OK guys, great promo image, but I think it's missing something.

    Got it! Throw in a 12 year old boy in tighty whities."

    This has got to be satire. They really can't be serious... Can they?

    I thought the cult of global warming had changed their minds and decided that the world is going into an ice age because of almighty man.

    Seriously... They spruced up their ad by including an underage boy in his underwear typing away on a laptop (presumably a Mac, of course). The funny part is...that kid needs some SUN! Put down the laptop, get dressed, and go play outside! Stop contemplating the hidden meaning of your rug!

    Well, I know where I'd put the couch - right over that preposterous image.

    Ok, here is the truth behind the photo that was used by Al Gore in his movie and what this is from.

    A photographer, in JULY, took a picture of a polar bear playing on an iceberg. Polar bears can swim for MILES and was not in danger. The photo was bought, with several others by AP. Gore and other Global Warming cult members seen the photo and made up the story about it being stranded.

    Just thought I would point out the truth.

    Yeah...

    especially considering that the foremost scientist on polar bears (who lives with them every once in a while) announced on the radio that she would feel uncomfortable and wrong if she supported adding them as an "endangered" species. She went on to say that their population has "increased dramatically" over the past three decades.

    I think the polar bears are fine.
