Logic-Right Wing Style

I love the right-wings logic. It is so fantastically amazing, that I think we need to come up with a new, more specific word for just how thorough their logistical process is. We are are going to call this new term "WTPDAFP". That is short for "We Take Psychotropic Drugs And Formulate Policies". Now, I have nothing against psychotropic drugs, I do however have a problem with people taking said drugs WHILE they are deciding on their policies and ideology. Really, it's truly the only thing I can come up with that would explain this .

Basically, this is a new commercial from Big Oil (Exxon etc) that talks about how Al Gore's new anti-global warming movie (An Inconvenient Truth) is ACTUALLY a smear campaign against......Carbon Dioxide. That's right kids, the enviroment friendly democrats actually have the nerve to launch a smear campaign against a gas. I am sure Mr. CO2 is offended.

Clearly, there are a number of things wrong with launching a smear campaign against CO2. The first would be that they are calling it a smear campaign. Does anyone else think that perhaps, you can't smear a freaking GAS?

The second thing that is gravely wrong is what they actually say in the ad. One of the psychotropically induced truisms is that CO2 is "essential to life"because (this is classic) "we breathe it out". That's right. Next, sewage companies are going to start telling us we need to eat our own shit. Of course, I realize that plants use CO2, however, not at the rate we produce it and ESPECIALLY not when we are decimating the largest intake of CO2-the rainforest. Any moron knows this (yes, I realize that is extremely opptimistic given our current situation).

The ad goes on to state how the companies and industries that produce C02 have freed us from back-breaking labor . At the end, it talks about how "some politicians" (ahem...Al Gore) are trying to get it labeled as a pollutant and "what would our lives be like then". It ends with "Carbon Dioxide, some call it a pollutant...we call it life".

Given this precedent, we should perhaps expect the following ad compaigns from the right wing-nuts during their psychotropic induced brainstorming sessions:

-George Bush Is Smart

-Some call it war-we call it peace.

-Abortion makes your uterus fall out

-Drink petroleum-it's good for your heart


God I love hallucinogens, they are clearly the answer to the worlds problems. Who knew that all this brainstorming didn't take place in DC, but in Amsterdam!
