Need a Good Laugh At Liberals Expense?

I should have put this in Scams, or the Nut House.

Man to live on melting iceberg for one year to urge climate change action (Video)

OK, First the Hype:

QuoteCrazy publicity stunt or stroke of daring genius? We're not sure, but it got our attention. The man pictured above is Alex Bellini, a professional adventurer and motivational speaker who plans to live alone on a melting iceberg off the coast of Greenland for one year, to emphasize the urgent need for climate change action.

This bold one-man campaign comes at a time when a chorus of scientists, organizations and policymakers continue to warn about the accelerating loss of Arctic ice.

Now read this comment by a Discuss commentator, spot on and funny.

I had to do a triple take and then keep from choking because I was, and still am, laughing so hard. I lived in Thule ,Greenland for over 3 years and the Glaciers calved spring and summer and those Icebergs floated out into the bay and we could watch them float, melt and then - tip over. Those that did not melt froze in place. Now it gets really cold in Greenland in the Winter and those Phase 3 storms are brutal and will take your life in a heartbeat. So, this Green Buffoon is going to call attention to a naturally occurring seasonal event and call it something dire. This ranks right up there with the 2 women that were going to swim and Kayak across the North Pole because it was melting and gone --

Great moments in lib stupidity! Can you imagine watching the reaction of socialists around the globe when this thing tips over with his dumb ass clinging to his failed Utopian dream?

Oh Goody, lunch!

QuoteIcelandic officials had to rescue four American (OF COURSE) tourists who tried to picnic on an iceberg. The four had set up their table and folding chairs and were eating a meal when a gust of wind pushed the floe more than 30 feet from land. That's not very far to swim in general, even for an American, but it's kind of a long-ass way to swim in frigid glacial waters.

One guy managed to hop off the iceberg before it got too far, and he called the authorities to rescue his dining companions. Unfortunately, due to the quick work and focus of the rescue team, we will never know what they were having for dinner:

"When we arrived it was quite comical to see them sitting on chairs and with a table on an iceberg ... Yes the dinner was over," [rescuer] Páll [Sigurður Vignisson] told Iceland Review, adding that he had not noticed what they had been eating as he was too busy getting life vests to them.

Hmm ... if the dinner was over, does that mean they didn't get blown away until after they finished eating, or does it mean that after seeing that they were 30 feet from land, they shrugged and tucked in?

I wonder if Greenland has a policy of not endangering the lives of rescuers when people put their own lives in danger on purpose?

Too bad all of these _____________ (insert your favorite obscenity here) on the Left Coasts and elsewhere aren't camping out on icebergs! That would be so many less Liberals!

If we keep feeding them liberals, will the bears go extinct or will they flourish?

WE would flourish if LIBERALS went extinct, but really, this is about the bears!!!!

My guess is they'll have the screaming shits until they go back to eating their normal diet. I mean, hey, if you eat screaming shits, what can you expect coming out of your ass?
