“Two men’s passion, one green love…”

Ex-Vice US President Al Gore may be Ga-Ga for Green but Canada’s Environment Minister, John Baird will not be taking crap from him. Recently, Baird released a plan to reduce “intensity emissions” (cool way of saying greenhouse-gas emissions) in Canada. Gore fired back calling Baird’s plan:

In my opinion, it is a complete and total fraud. It is designed to mislead the Canadian people.

Baird was clearly pissed off about it and had this to say about Gore:

I wish Al Gore had asked to be briefed on the plan. I wish he would have read the plan.

The message was obviously coded. What it really says is: “This doesn’t involve you, sit down and shut up.” Gore didn’t have a chance to shoot back but his rep had this say:

Obviously he had a chance to read and review it.

With a comeback like that, she might as well have said nothing at all. This was the BEST part, Baird wasn’t done shit talking as he said:

It is difficult to accept criticism from someone who preaches about climate change, but who never submitted the Kyoto Protocol to a vote in the United States Senate, who never did as much as Canada is now doing to fight climate change during eight years in office.

If you skipped that, go back and read it. Now that is also code for: “Do you have anything left to say now? EHH!!” Of course this was then turned into whether this job was being done better by Liberals/Conservatives. In the end both sides were sounding very dumb because the Earth doesn’t care about politics.

I make fun of people with humor news and I still: care.
