DiCaprio comes very close to accusing Big Oil of engineering Lady Gaga’s Best Actress Golden Globe award in this speech.

"We simply cannot allow the corporate greed of the coal, oil and gas industries to determine the future of humanity,"...

Based upon his statement above I shall assume he heats his home with the firewood he harvests and travels by bicycle on land and rowboat by sea. For it is obviously the greed of coal, oil, and gas is something he has no part of, correct?

Do these people even listen to themselves? Do they grasp how devoid of reason they are? Are the that blinded by the environmental religion?

This idiot dumped his main squeeze because she did not believe in global warming. He better be glad he became an actor because he couldn’t get a job mowing lawns.

So Leo, you’re a good liberal and all, you’re “down with the stuggle”, so are you going to show solidarity with your black brothers and boycott the Oscars?

Come on, Leo, be a good liberal.

We simply cannot allow the corporate greed of the coal, oil and gas industries to determine the future of humanity," DiCaprio said to polite applause. "Those entities with a financial interest in preserving this destructive system have denied and even covered up the evidence of our changing climate."

And you charge how much to get into a movie???

How about ripping 'big popcorn' for price gouging?

This is one old oilfield hand who will just keep his money and maybe watch yer movie when it hits teevee.

:: Confab of Business Leaders ::

Ummmmm...Lenny is a “Business Leader”?

Or, does he just say the words someone else has written for him?

Seems like that dust-up with that bear in his last movie must have invoked some brain damage.

Actually Mr Decapitated flies commercial first class rather than a private jet.

I don’t like the guy but he does try to be consistent

Sigh......all this time I thought the sun was in charge, now I find out it’s big oil that is controlling the weather. Thank you Leo for setting me straight.

Unbelievable!

He was followed by a large polar bear.

Big question, why should we publish and listen to the words of an actor? One problem in our society being the giving of weight to the pronouncements of trivial people; i.e. actors, negro community organizers, illegal aliens, weird women and college students.

I have it on good authority that his yachts and jets are powered by unicorn dreams.
