   Sadly both men are too proud of their own opinions. Both should shut up and watch good people do their work.

   What’s that old saying about staying quiet and make people wonder open your mouth and remove all doubt?

   I didn’t think Danny Glover was a genius but I admit I thought he was smarter than this.

   I have nothing but pity for Danny Glover, who is obviously insane and doesn’t have people around him who care enough about him to get him any help. I guess being famous means that no one cares enough about you to tell you to STFU, no matter how foolish you make yourself look in public. It’s a damn shame.

   Read my lips: CLIMATE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH EARTHQUAKES. Not one science paper even tries to make that connection. Quakes are caused by forces within the earth’s interior. Glover has made a fool of himself, although a few ignoramuses might swallow his crap.

   Glover went off the deep end quite some time ago. Oddly enough, this isn’t on the headlines on MSLSD.com. I suspect we won’t hear Keith UeberDork mention this either…

   Was Mother Nature AKA Gaia at the Copenhagen summit? She didn’t get much press if she was there. Like they say, “It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature!”

   I wonder if she has the same problems as Joan Rivers when she flies?

    My wife and I were talking yesterday about the recent spate of earthquakes.

    She brought up the speculation that the removal of natural resources (oil, gas, coal, gold etc etc) could be changing the balance of pressure on the various plates and causing the recent increase in earthquakes.

    Then she said, “I better not say that too loud, some enviro-nut could latch onto that argument and start a whole new AGW movement.”

    Sounds like Danny is head that way.

    Stuff like what Robertson and Glover say from time to time happens becasue they routinely fall into the trap of claiming they can know the ‘mind’ of God (or know the ‘mind’ of the their favorrite deity), and claim their interpretation is valid.

    For a human to be able to understand the ‘mind’ of God is a lot like expecting amoebas to understand you with absolute completeness and clarity…I just don’t buy that unless he is speaking to ALL the same way. Then we know for sure what is being communicated.

    They need to stick to ‘how should you/we behave’ than they should prognostication.

    It would be much easier if Glover and his kind (communists/socialists) would just move to Cuba or Venezuela where they can bash America all the time and then we wouldn’t have to hear it. It’s a win-win for all of us.

    Give a microphone to an idiot and “this is what happens, you know what I’m sayin’?” The man makes millions here and whines about it. Hollyweird.

    From Danny Glover and the Hollyweirds I expect little. That Pat Robertson claims to represent the Christian Church is shameful-that Christians don’t call him on these more stupid statements is worse. Yes paganism-voodoo-is rampant in Haiti. Paganism is rising in Europe, Islam is basically pagan. Where were the earthquakes?

    Luke 13:4
    And what about the eighteen people who died when the tower in Siloam fell on them? Were they the worst sinners in Jerusalem?
    Matthew 5:45
    He makes His sun rise on the wicked and on the good, and makes the rain fall upon the just and the unjust

    Pat Robertson claimed New Orleans got hit by Kitrina because of Ellen DeGenerate/Degeneres which ever. How did San Francisco get a bye? Perhaps the man needs to do some more reading
    1 Corinthians 3:19

    Something about fools and wisdom might help.

    I did a little research and there is at least some credibility, although disputable, to what Robertson said about Haiti being cursed as a result of a prayer by slaves preceding a Vodou slave revolt. I would also point out that Robertson finished his statement by saying that his intentions were to help the Haitian people as much as possible. It is typical of the left and the anti-Christian media to take things out of context, and that is certainly what has happened here.

    As far as Glover is concerned, he has no historical or scientific basis for connecting his global warming theory to such an earthquake, tsunami or blizzard. His comments were preposterous.

    I donated $100 to the Salvation Army. These poor people were already the most downtrodden on Earth. How can any of us sit in the comfort of our homes with heat, electricity, running water, and abundant food and not help these people?

    It’s so darn easy to manipulate conservatives. Find some stream-of-consciousness quote by Pat Robertson (or Trent Lott or Rush, etc.), take it out of context and soon conservatives will be showing their “fairness” by bashing their own supporters. Meanwhile, leftists keep a united front no matter how strange the quotes might be (skin-shade, fisting, etc.) from their followers. Maybe if we stopped eating our own and spent a little more time fighting the real enemy we’d get somewhere.

    Yeah, it’s a shame. And they’re all skilled actors and have made good movies. To be able to watch any new movies at all, I have to overlook the politics of the actors, directors, etc. This only works to a point. Jane Fonda crossed that line decades ago. Glover crosses the line and it is not possible for me to enjoy a film with him in it. Penn is pretty close but not quite as bad as Fonda or Glover, yet.

    Will Valerie Jarrett be as “speechless” over Glover’s fulminations as she was over Pat Robertson’s?

    Maybe. Hopefully.

    The statements made by both Glover and Robertson lack intellectual rigor. Though the question is about consistentcy, and will Jarret take Glover to task, as well?

    Everyone has their own agenda. Having posted a blog entry only after Glover’s silly statement and not after Robertson’s silly statement demonstrates that Jarret might not be alone in her lack of consistentcy.
