White House Organic Garden Spikes Controversy

Samantha Bee investigates why Michelle Obama opening organic, green garden at the White House could be harmful. Frankly, I think she does a good job humiliating the hypocritical clerks and exposing their hidden motives.

What has Bush ever done for us?

President Bush had his final annual speech State of the Union. Surprisingly, he stated that the Union remains strong. "Despite everything Mr. president did, that is," adds Jon Stewart. And what did Bush do for us? Six years ago, he passed the No child left behind act. "And that was it!"



I loved the link to the Kyoto protocol, which the USA failed to sign, despite their declared effort to stop the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Al Gore in Daily Show (and in Futurama)

Have you seen the movie An Inconvenient Truth? Al Gore makes some serious and disturbing points here. I think he helps people understand how serious the situation might get if we won't act responsibly.
But I also like when he talks on the lighter side. In interview with Jon Stewart, Al Gore provides some solemn points.






Put he was brave and cocky enough to play in Futurama, morover, he used part of Futurama in his now-famous slideshow presentation.



And this is one of the trailers for The Inconvenient Truth. It is definitely a movie worth seeing.

- Upton Sinclair

Our salary doesn't depend on it. Our future might. Will we go with the responsible choice or with the lazy one?
