Greenpeace Resurrects JFK for Global Warming Ad Campaign

Business and Media Institute: A video posted on Greenpeace’s YouTube site portrays former President John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated Nov. 22, 1963, in Dallas, making a plea for environmental activism to save the planet from the perils of global warming.

When will these idiot Marxists `greenpeacers’ morons find real jobs and stop with the phony disproven `global warming’ nonsense? these jerks are, well, are jerks!

There goes John again…rolling in his grave.

He was almost 180 degrees, the other political direction from these libtards of today that’ve high-jacked the democratic party.

John and Bobby are gunna kick Eddie’s arse when he croaks for ruining their party.

This is disgusting. Trying to resurrect the dead and put words in their mouth in order to give credence to their flawed and stupid message. You would think they could have afforded better CGI because this looks like crap— eerie and it doesn’t look anything like his mouth at all. It looks like a cartoon, or like that thing they used to do on Conan O’Brian or Jay Leno or whatever with the mouth cut outs.

Listen, suckers— we’d be better off if the world got warmer. It is better for us, better for plants, better for life. Maybe not the poor polar bears, but they’ll adapt. So will the penguins. Or they will go extinct like millions of species before them that couldn’t adapt to a changing planet. By the way, if CO2 is the culprit (which it seems many people question now in favor of water vapor being the cause), then plants will benefit. More CO2 means heartier plants and trees— the rain forests will regrow more rapidly. And what do plants do with CO2? They turn it back into oxygen. The planet will again rebalance itself— this is what it has been doing for millions of years, and what it will continue to do. Even with modern science we do not have enough capability to collect and process data to have a full understanding of what is going on with this planet. And yet people are going to poop on themselves worrying about this, and lobby government— and take our freedoms away while raising taxes… On something that may as well be a fairy tale, even if it can’t be proved to be one.

THIS is DISGUSTING.

I guess this is the ONLY Kennedy with any credibility left.
Well, come to find out, he was a big liar, womanizing, drug addict.

What happened, Al GORE couldn’t close the deal either?

Maybe the next commercials could be TALKING DINOSAURS or Wooly Mammoths.

ALERT >>>>> NEW ICE AGE COMING.

Why don’t they also resurrect MARY JO KOPECNEY?

She would be a good spokesperson for mixing a good Whiskey and branch water!!

Brenda   October 30th, 2008 - 3:20 pm

Blah,blah,blah same old Gore recycled junk. This is a disgrace to the legacy of JFK.

[...] Breitbart, he’s, ah, er, gravely [...]

What is Greenpiece thinking!

We are in the start of a massive 10 year cooling cycle. The sun has stop producing sun spots.

The gobal warming money machine is over!

Neal E   October 30th, 2008 - 3:51 pm

I’m up here in the northeast where we just had snow before Halloween. I hope they fix this global warming thing before we freeze to death up here!

kwh   October 30th, 2008 - 4:13 pm

Yes, comrades, this is the bright and glorious, shining new way: Old heros will be resurrected to hawk Big Brother’s Will. The truth of any man is owned by the Shining Left, since it is so good and noble. We’ve always been at war with Eurasia.

Frank Lee   October 30th, 2008 - 4:35 pm

So how are they making money on this? The only ones left promoting global warming are those making money on it. Maybe they conned some mentally challenged philanthropist.

Gore has made $100 million so far. In January UN Sec Ban Ki-Moon predicted $20 trillion over next 20 years. Swarzeneggar and his state’s nuts and fruits budgeted $10 billion. The US is looking at spending $100 billion.

31,072 and more scientists have signed a petition disputing global warming. Only 2500 names were appended to the UN IPCC report – some without the permission of the signee. Only about 40 wrote the report and then only after the conclusive preamble was written.

Anyone disputing global warming is banned from international conferences on climate change. At the Bali conference they were threatened with arrest if they held a news conference.

An analysis of the IPCC reports shows no evidence the IPCC was even aware of the vast literature on scientific forecasting methods, much less applied the principles.

The IPCC’s policy recommendations are based on flawed statistical analyses and procedures that violate general forecasting principles.

John Steele   October 30th, 2008 - 4:55 pm

Pathetic.

They doctor a video and then have the audacity to say at the end “Why must we look to the past for leadership today” leading the unaware to believe that Kennedy actually said this stuff.

Yes, kwh, we’ve always been at war with Eurasia.

jesus christ   October 30th, 2008 - 5:38 pm

besides popping prescription pills and humping whores outside of his marriage, what did jfk do? oh yeah, he almost got us into a nuclear war with the russians. way to go a-hole, just another democratic failure.

oh yeah, have you noticed it’s getting cooler, not warmer outside? guess that reality is “inconvenient” for left-wing democrats that want us to ride bicycles to work and live like we’re in the third world.

what libs don’t understand is that my father controls the weather, not you people here on earth…

demdicks   October 30th, 2008 - 5:48 pm

In the spirit of Joe the Plumber having his personal records illegally searched by Ohio libtards, we should do a search on all scientists who whored their credibility out for research grant money by promoting the GW SCAM, then make sure they never see a dime of taxpayer money ever again.

20/20   October 30th, 2008 - 5:51 pm

Maybe the libtards had to counter-act the MIT report (see Drudge) and the record breaking LOW temperatures the WORLD has been experiencing. I hear that they are going to have Karl Marx endorse Comrad Obama as their october surprise!
I HOPE that I still have CHANGE in my pocket !

CommonSense   October 30th, 2008 - 6:10 pm

You know – I was lucky enough to have attended the JFK H.S. in Berlin for a few years back when the wall was still up. I can’t even begin to imagine what other example could have been used to ruin the memory of JFK.
Seriously – it’s as if Ted was drunk outta his mind and made this on his home PC!
Not only bad editing – but place that on the biggest rip off ever attempted by the rdical left enviromentalists!
You guys suck HOT AIR!

John   October 30th, 2008 - 8:02 pm

Now, if they could just get this darn planet to start heating up instead of cooling, as it has for the last ten years.

Maybe if they stuck a pin in Al Gore and released all his hot air!

KNAB   October 30th, 2008 - 8:03 pm

OK Neomarxists you can begin substituting global warming with the next chimera. Global warming is deader than Elvis.

Michael   October 30th, 2008 - 8:16 pm

Hopefully global warming only kills the radicals who “warn” us about it. Come to think of it, thats how the Left views the war on islamic extremism! Although greenpeace (be wary of anyone who claims to “fight” for “peace”) are nutjobs in a catagory of their own i feel bad for putting them with the Left

DJ   October 30th, 2008 - 9:08 pm

(Snowed in N. Ohio, NW Pa all day yesterday 10/29 – Temp this morning 25F. Scrape My Windshield, Greenpeace!)

That is >THE WORST< JFK impersonation I’ve EVER heard! And his mouth was badly ’shopped. All wrong.

“Why must we look to the past for leadership today?” Let’s start with: How about because your brother Ted was a fat, foul-mouthed, drunken, woman-abusing playboy & murderer for 3 or 4 decades?

Why do you all make rediculous comments without understanding me first?
