Like a star going supernova, Milli Vanilli exploded onto the music scene in the late eighties. Its easy to look back now and mock them but girl you know its true that damn near everyone owned that album. They were supposed to be the chosen ones, the saviors of soul and the second coming of Terrence Trent D'arby times two.
The combination of their clog kicking videos, boderekesque man-locks, and sweet sweet soulful harmonies culminated in the band selling over thirty million singles and winning an American Music Award and Grammy for best new group.
... not to mention millions of posters like the one hanging in Rhino's living room. Ok, ok .... allegedly.
The only problem, as we all now know is that it was all a....
FOOKIN' LIE!!!
A ruse, a hoax. The American public had done did been hood-winked, swindled and bamboozled. The culprits Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus were shamed into returning their music awards, crawling away into obscurity, and Arista their music label lost a lawsuit forcing them to refund customers that were duped into buying their albums or attended their concerts.
Which brings me to Al Gore.
He came along with his movie An Inconvenient Truth at exactly the right time. The liberal docu-drama crowd was growing tired of watching the same old tubby lefty (Michael Moore) running around Blair Witch style with a handycam sabotaging unsuspecting citizens with loaded questions and twisting their answers and the truth to fit his political agenda and immediately fell in lockstep with the next newest and brightest celebutard tubby lefty (Al Gore) that offered them a more aesthetically pleasing pie chart and slide show filled moving picture show.
Not surprisingly and much like the Milli Vanilli debacle the movie turned out to be a complete and utter fraud. Now I know what you're thinking, but Donkey don't you have an agenda as well as a conservative? Well yes I do, but not as a conservative but as a true conservationist that has volunteered my time and effort throughout the years for specific environmental causes dear to me who is growing increasingly disgusted everytime I see a new alarmist pay to play global warming swindle. Buy a green this or green that they say cuz we be super duper eco-friendly and give back 10% to eco-friendly (read: liberal) charities (read: self serving quilty conscience cleaning coonts).
But don't take my word for it, how bout we go to fellow alarmists and peers of Mr Gore, the New York Times and see what they have to say about it....
But part of his scientific audience is uneasy. In talks, articles and blog entries that have appeared since his film and accompanying book came out last year, these scientists argue that some of Mr. Gore’s central points are exaggerated and erroneous. They are alarmed, some say, at what they call his alarmism.
“I don’t want to pick on Al Gore,” Don J. Easterbrook, an emeritus professor of geology at Western Washington University, told hundreds of experts at the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America. “But there are a lot of inaccuracies in the statements we are seeing, and we have to temper that with real data.” source
In other words, Al Gore's movie has been resoundingly discredited by some of the very same people that agree with him on the overall premise of man-made global warming (of which that theory has then in turn been resoundingly discredited by actual science and non-computer generated models of atmospheric theorems aka the weather)
But....
I'm not here to argue about global warming.
The science is in, The Aurora was right yet again and now its just matter of time (just like the global freezing scare of the 70's) of letting the truth sink in to the conscience of the public as the chicken littles squeeze every last penny out of this "movement" before people wake up ten years later and realize that the polar bears aren't extinct and Manhattan isn't a scuba diving destination.
I'm writing this post because I want my fookin' money back just as I sued Arista to remunerate me for my hard earned ducats for two front row seats to see Milli Vanilli Live at Red Rocks. I could give two shits about the Academy Award or Nobel Peace prize, Al Gore can keep 'em, but I spent double deuce dollars seeing this self described documentary strictly for research purposes in my ongoing quest to debunk left leaning knuckleheads, and as it turns out I already done did see this movie (The Day After Tomorrow) for free on the Home Box Office.
See, not only was the science behind An Inconvenient Truth bogus but so was the actual "real life" footage of the poor little wittle baby polar ice caps. In other words the whole fookin' movie was a big steaming pile of shite.

Oops!
So... alarmists how does it feel to have a fraud, a plagiarist, a liar, and phony for a hero? Dont answer that.
I wont kick you when you're down cuz I cant imagine it feels good, but and I dont hate to say so but we told ya from the get go.
Taking care of the planet should not be the money making vehicle that it has become or the driving force behind pushing one world globalist agendas to punish the producers of the world.
Smokey The Bear didnt have a financial stake in the local recycling plant when he told you to "give a hoot dont pollute" he did so because he loved the planet and not put forth some neo-agrarian socialist policy.
Cleaning up the planet isnt about having rock concerts to raise awareness (read: money) and its certainly not about some half assed b-grade science fiction movie (read: L. Ron Hubbard started out writing science fiction too, hint hint) claiming to be some serious documentary.
Wake up people and dont be millivanillied on something so important as the future of modern industry and the health and wealth of nations and its peoples. The earth has warmed and cooled for millions of years before mankind and will do so long after were gone, dont let some scrubs profit off your naivete.
So in closing I would like to quote The Ben Folds Five and their Song For The Dumped and say.....
Give me my money back, give me my money back, you bitch! I want my money back, and don't forget, and don't forget to give me back my black T-shirt.
EE-Aw!!
