Obama on Mt Rushmore? Greenpeace Banner Calls for Global Warming Leadership

Greenpeace climbers hung a banner on Mount Rushmore challenging President Obama to show real leadership on global warming. The banner, measuring sixty-five feet high by thirty-five feet wide, features an unfinished portrait of Obama with the message, "America honors leaders not politicians: Stop Global Warming."

The demonstration comes as President Obama meets other G8 leaders in L'Aquila, Italy today to discuss the global warming crisis in the lead-up to UN climate treaty negotiations in Copenhagen this December.

And do you have any scientific proof for your statements? It has already been scientifically proven that global warming and climate change come in delay. We are now bearing the consequences of the burning of fossil fuels back in 1960! It is also proven that Al Gore is an asshole, but he aint a scientist. And hurricane Kathrina, did that help the government to make money? The floodings in Pakistan? Plenty of other examples concerning disasters like these....

The funny part is that 4 years later we know that Obama is not a leader.

it's awesome to be passionate about these things, but you can't drape a banner over a national monument, that's just ignorant. Why don't you go throw a sheet over the Statue of Liberty and claim gun control needs to be better. Makes about the same amount of sense.

Uuuh, mankind is NOT doing anything to cause any global warming or any climate change. The culprit is that huge, shiney, blasting furnace you see in the sky during the day. Now go do your homework.
