Title: Paul McCartney compares global warming skeptics to Holocaust denier

Sir Paul McCartney just can't let it be. The former Beatle predicted in an interview that the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico might expedite a move to cleaner, renewable energy sources in the world, FOXNews.com reported Thursday.

McCartney could have stopped while he was ahead, but he went on to compare people who don't believe in global warming to "those who don't believe there was a Holocaust."

"Sadly we need disasters like this to show people," McCartney said in an exclusive interview with The Sun. "Some people don't believe in climate warning -- like those who don't believe there was a Holocaust."

McCartney continued, "But the facts indicate that there's something going on and we've got to be aware of it if we want our kids to inherit a decent world, not a complete nightmare of a planet -- clean, renewable energy is for starters."

McCartney also defended U.S. President Barack Obama's handling of the two-month-old crisis.

"I don't accept the criticism of Barack over the oil spill," said McCartney, who met the president for the first time earlier this month.

"I think he's been great. It's tough if we Brits whinge that he's whingeing at us. Tough, then don't spill oil."

A representative for McCartney in London said the singer would have no further comment.

Chris Horner, a senior fellow at Competitive Enterprise Institute and author of two books on environmental policy, blasted McCartney's comments.

"Was Posh Spice unavailable? I've seen quite a few reasons to look elsewhere than actors and crooners for deep thoughts on weighty policy matters," Horner wrote in an email to FOXNews.com. "And this is certainly one of them."

Horner's message continued: "They've got computer model projections, Leonardo [DiCaprio] and the Cute Beatle. In the other corner are observations proving the models wrong, ClimateGate, NASA-Gate and the host of IPCC-Gates.

"I'm comfortable with the balance of authorities here."

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.

The fucking boomers that are part of the leader elite, whether it be government, media, music, acting, are the greatest generation of traitors the world has ever known, and the biggest liars ever to draw a breath.

We can't get these fuckers to die off fast enough. When the last of these useless fucks is gone, Common sense will return, I hope.

But you know, there are people on this very forum--well, just one or two--who claim we are doomed, doomed let me tell you because we are about out of oil and that global warming is real, etc., etc.

He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic.

McCartney is a knight of the British Empire [ www.apfn.org/apfn/KNIGHTHOOD.HTM ] for helping to destroy American youth. Remember what Cornwallis said to George Washington.

To be honest I haven't read enough of Shoonra's posts to know if s/he is a TRUE BELIEVER™ in Al's scam or that Peak Oil idiocy. buck is and another one I was thinking about is Aggravator (who is now living in what shall be his permanent home, at least as far as I am concerned, my clown filter).

Check out the leader of the warmers.

The Grand Warmer wanted his genitals heated in Portland!

Gore the Great - inventor of the internet - master of warming - teacher to the pseudo-intellectual left - "encouraged" an unwilling masseuse to warm his putz!

What a guy!

Aggravator (who is now living in what shall be his permanent home, at least as far as I am concerned, my clown filter).

Typical response of a gutless brainless creampuff who can't argue the points or even get up the gumption to make the announcement.
