Just when you think you can’t find someone even dumber in Hollywood, out comes this gem from Danny Glover:
Actor Danny Glover says the earthquake in Haiti is a result of global warming. Glover told GRITtv that it could have happened to any of the Caribbean island nations: “They are all in peril because of global warming.”
Then, he lamented the failure of the climate summit in Copenhagen. As a result of that failure, he says, “this is what happened.”
So not only is global warming at fault, but Gaia was so pissed off at us for refusing to get on board with the Copenhagen summit that she killed 100,000 people in Haiti who had absolutely nothing to do with the summit. Wow. Would someone please check this moron for Alzheimer’s?
Hey, Danny: Good job. You’ve just succeeded in making Pat Robertson look almost sane.
Maybe he’s suffering from brain damage after sitting on one too many exploding toilets…seriously, this comment places him in the same territory as Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, and the other “useful idiots” from the Left Coast.
BTW, apparently his BFF in Caracas has nationalized a French-owned supermarket chain, claiming they were involved in “price-gouging” following the devaluation of the Bolivar, Venezuela’s currency.

A French-owned company? Chavez may find the Frogs less easy-going than the Americans when it comes to some local dictator stealing their property.
All these clowns blaming various natural disasters on supposed “Global Warming” or “Climate Change” (when they remember the globe actually hasn’t been warming the last ten years) must be pig-ignorant how earthquakes and tsumanis originate. And they are too pig-ignorant to realize that the climate will behave like Bernard Baruch’s famous prediction of what the stock market will do: “It will fluctuate.”
Ever occur to you that maybe he was not claiming the quake happened because of climate change, but that if climate change progresses, we could see more disasters of this magnitude in the Caribbean?
That headline feels to me like affirmative action or something. Could we compromise on them two being equal idiots?
Really? Global warming will cause the tectonic plates to shift? Why, are the plates on subterranean ice caps or something that someone forgot to teach me about in class?
It occurs to me that when a man says this:
Well, he means what he says. He is explicitly blaming the earthquake on what happened (or didn’t happen) at Copenhagen. Unless you’re saying that it depends what the meaning of “response” is.
