HIGH-LARIOUS: Man With $7 Million Yacht Lectures India on Carbon Emissions, Links Them to Deadly Floods

There's hypocrisy, there's flaming hypocrisy, and then there's John Kerry.

After expressing his condolences to the flood victims, Kerry said in a speech in New Delhi on Sunday night that the U.S. had donated $150,000 to the flood relief effort — “not the highest sum in the world,” he admitted, but “a beginning.” He went on to warn India not to dismiss the deadly intensity of the floods as a one-off tragedy. “Perhaps Mother Nature in her own way is telling us to heed some warnings,” Kerry said before a packed auditorium. “Today the science of climate change is screaming at us for action.”

I'll treat global warming climate change like a planetary emergency, when the mega-wealthy green profiteers like Al Gore and John Kerry treat it like a planetary emergency.

You know, when they sell their immense yachts and and multiple mansions.


Oh, and here's an idea. How about they use Skype rather than jet-setting around the world?

And pay their taxes to boot?

I'd propose Kerry house homeless families ostensibly displaced by Global Warming on his Yacht(s). Do it for the children™

In 2004, the US sent an initial $15M of aid for the victims of the tsunami. The world called the Bush Administration "stingy" for such a paltry amount of money.

$150k? Really?
