NIMBY

Michael Graham has a fantastic column today on liberal hypocrisy. As we all know, liberals like to preach to us about how horrible we are and then turn around and do the exact same thing. John Edwards preached about poverty and the "Two Americas" and then turns around and builds one of the biggest houses in North Carolina. Same with Mr. and Mrs. Tom Brady. Graham reminds us:

When last we saw the World’s Most Beautiful Model (and his wife), they were hectoring us about something called Earth Hour. We were supposed to sit at home in the dark on a Saturday night observing a carbon-free Lenten hour of penance, atoning for our energy-consuming sins.

The Brady-Bundchens, on the other hand, will soon be honoring Earth Hour in their 22,000 square-foot uber-mansion in California. The daunting task of turning out the lights in all eight of their bedrooms - not to mention the workout room, the weight room, the cardio room and, possibly, the covered bridge - will be left to the butler.


Great stuff, see the whole thing here.
