Fat Lady to Sing the "Truth"

Inconvenient Truth to become an operaAs if a movie based on a PowerPoint presentation wasn't boring enough, now "An Inconvenient Truth" will put audiences to sleep via opera music.

The legendary La Scala opera house in Milan plans to do an opera version of Al Gore's documentary during its 2011 season. Italian composer Giorgio Battistelli hopes the opera will help people see the world's environmental predicament from a fresh point of view.

We hear Act 1, "Carbon Footprint, Walk on By", is going to be awesome.

22. Ah, it's a bi**ch when all the smart people in the world don't agree that global warming is a myth, isn't it? Don't worry......all the dimwits and corporate pigs have made sure that it's too late now. Bend over and kiss your arse good-by, it's just too bad that we condemned our kids as well as ourselves. Earth has had enough of us, she's going to shake us off like the blood-sucking fleas we are, but it's good for a yuk yuk for awhile.

24. Let's be honest: Barack Obama is the first Affirmative Action Presidential Candidate. I am not saying he's not a smart and accomplished guy; he is. But he has benefitted from society's efforts to boost the nation's blacks through education and hiring in the past. And now, the Affirmative Action mentality is so ingrained in broad strata of society that you see an overwhelmingly white state like Iowa coming out in a landslide to show support for a black man doing well. Even in the obvious reality that his opponent at the time, Hillary Clinton, was and is a much more experienced and competent candidate by any objective measure.

28. Love it when Al says "Never have we experienced such catastrophic climate change" Can anyone say ice age? How many factories, big oil companies and corporations were at fault for that?

29. It's o.k. everyone. Al Gore is really from the future. He is a robot. He is just goofing on us and our society. Kinda of a futuristic college prank. If we all just ignore him he will go away..... just like it did with Robert McFarland and it will with James Carville

30. Al Gore the greatest Con- man of our time. All you got to do is get the dumb Hollywood community to bite on it and they'll spread it likes gospel. Global warming what a way to make money off the idiots, right Al!!!
