"Elizabeth Edwards Will Give Up Tangerines to Fight Global Warming"

Okay...I'll up the ante.

I will give up brussel sprouts to fight global warming.

Gee...I already feel better about myself!

[MeanWestTexan]

How about she give up private jets and her 20,000 sqft home?

?

Yeah, didn’t think so. Global Warming is B.S.

[cripplecreek]

She’s a saint I tell ya, A saint.

[Ben Mugged]

We need to start mailing tangerines to Elizabeth.

[mware]

I love tangerines, I’ll take her share of them.

[OB1kNOb]

But she won’t give up her Ann Coulter cigarette, will she?

[Kevmo]

And that’s causing a bunch of libertarians to wonder if they’re willing to only smoke locally-grown Marijuana.

[trimom]

I’ll join you on the brussels sprouts and raise you liver!

[Enchante]

I enjoy tangerines and I’m not giving them up!! But I will be happy to give up the New York Times (just kidding, never read the rag), which should be scaled back to only local delivery so that they do not waste any more precious energy transporting it around the country. How’s that for a new campaign: pressure all lib publications to cut back on their distribution in order to save energy and help slow “climate change”.......

[keepitreal]

“I live in North Carolina. I’ll probably never eat a tangerine again,” she said, speaking of a time when the fruit is reaches the price that it “needs” to be.

So fruit prices should be high to save the planet? Deny poor children foods rich in vitamin C?

Elizabeth Edwards Antoinette: “Let them eat chips”.

[LibWhacker]

Yeah, let’s reverse centuries of the civilizing influence of trade. Because the Stone Age was so much better.

[FormerACLUmember]

The Edwards live in perhaps the largest private home in North Carolina, managed a sub-prime exploiting multi-billion hedge fund "to study poverty," flit around in luxurious private jets, drive a fleet of low MPG armored SUVs, and are a couple of notorious crooked trial lawyers.

The honesty of any word of such professional liars? zero. nada. goose-egg. zilch.

Delicious Florida tangerine, anyone?

[Rastus]

If this becomes popular, we better subsidize tangerine growers. I doubt if they can stay afloat if they only sell locally.

[JMJJR]

“We’ve been moving back to ‘buy local,’” Mrs. Edwards said, outlining a trade policy that “acknowledges the carbon footprint” of transporting fruit.”

“the carbon footprint” of transporting fruit.”

Would that be BG John ?

sorry, i had 2

[indcons]

Her wife, Breck Girl, flew to the debates yesterday in a private jet. Recently, both Edwards built a new, mega, fossil fuel-consuming palace whose energy consumption is probably equal to a thousand of our homes.

Hypocrisy - thy name is John and Elizabeth Edwards.

[TWohlford]

I had a friend who wanted to give up chastity for Lent....

[Calvin Locke]

This is tricky.

What percentage of the market would have to avoid tangerines and Brussel Sprouts to maintain supply at a lower cost?

FWIW, I literally just finished a package of the Bird's Eye μ-wave bag of Brussel Sprouts.

However, in the spirit of things, I will give up turnips.

[RightOnline]

Now I know, for a fact, that both Edwards’ are total, drooling, blithering idiots.

What’s even scarier is that these two seek the White House. Unf**king-believable.

[ridesthemiles]

“Elizabeth Edwards Will Give Up Tangerines to Fight Global Warming” “

I could say that she is “FRUIT LOOPS”, but that is just toooooo easy.
This woman thinks we should take either her or her “husband” seriously? Is she still sniveling about the neighbor who owns a gun?????

[Joe 6-pack]

"We've been moving back to 'buy local,'" Mrs. Edwards said, outlining a trade policy that "acknowledges the carbon footprint" of transporting fruit...."

Mrs. Edwards attested to the family's sincerity by adding, "John has even agreed to using pinecone tampons when that time of the month rolls around."

[MEGoody]

"We've been moving back to 'buy local,'" Mrs. Edwards said, outlining a trade policy that "acknowledges the carbon footprint" of transporting fruit.

Elizabeth, will you also acknowledge the huge 'carbon footprint' of your massive homes?

::::crickets::::

[joebuck]

"I will give up brussel sprouts to fight global warming."

I've got dibs on giving up cauliflower. Just doing my part.

[Lawgvr1955]

Global Warming is indeed a new religion even more “out there” than Scientology.

[cquiggy]

How much fuel do you think the campaign is wasting flying her fat crazy butt all over the country.

[Larry Lucido]

Paraphrasing George Costanza, to Nakahoma Broadcasting Corporation executives: "You've apparently forgotten what it's like to have no tangerines."

NBC Executive: "Again with the tangerines!"

This is the Ping List About Nothing. If you'd like to be on or off this ping list, FReep me. One the list, off the list - whatever. Either way is fine with Conrad (Conrad, Connie or Con) the handiman.

[ravensandricks]

Measuring a summers day,
I only finds it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.

Tangerine, tangerine,
Living reflection from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen,
And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,
Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again?
And I do.

[tsmith130]

Ok, I’ll bite (no pun intended)...are tangerines the only fruit that is NOT grown in North Carolina?

[fso301]

Ok. I’ll give up stewed okra in order to help fight global warming.

[ken21]

whatta moron.

[Ol' Sox]

LOOK AT ME!!! I'll give up SOCCER to fight global warming!!!

[steelyourfaith]

ping

[Dysart]

Riddle me this— how can one favor global free trade and be against the “carbon footprint” involved in the transportation of non-local goods?

[kalee]

Good, more tangerines and brussel sprouts for me. ;)

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

Good luck with the Florida vote, dumbass.

[Rocky]

She has Sheryl’s vote.

One sheet and no tangerines... la dolce vita!

[AndyJackson]

the importance of relying on locally-grown fruit

Lived in Cali and now in DC. I can tell you that the locally grown fruit causes dispepsia. The local nuts are worse, Q.E.D., Eliza.

[DBrow]

She does not need to give them up. She can just fly to where they are local.

I’m hearing more and more about Food Miles and Buy Local.

The Greens want us all on village farms with limited transportation and restricted communications (to control “appropriate technology development”). Buy Local is part of that dream.

[JRochelle]

I’m giving up avocados grown in Mexico!

And mandarin oranges from China!

I am better that Mrs. Edwards. She only gave up 1, I gave up 2 foods.

[dfwgator]

Way to take one for the team, Liz.

[HereInTheHeartland]

I’ll give up predatory blow dried trial lawyers from North Carolina in the spirit of cooperation.

[LexBaird]

Yeah, but will she trust the Government health care system to monitor and treat her cancer?

[WorkingClassFilth]

Giving up tangerines, huh?

Well, I hope she’s going to eat a lot of locally grown fruit - she needs it - she’s full of sh*t!

[LexBaird]

"We've been moving back to 'buy local,'" Mrs. Edwards said, outlining a trade policy that "acknowledges the carbon footprint" of transporting fruit.

Hey, Betty Eddie, does that mean you think the residents of, say, NYC should be required to live on what they grow locally? What exactly is NYC's biggest crop?

[OCCASparky]

Actually, make mine a satsuma tangerine (more commonly known as a mandarin). Skin literally falls off the fruit, but they’re kind of expensive and typically only available around Christmas.

And they’re typically from China and Japan, which means LOTS of greenhouse gasses are emitted to get them to me!

[dennisw]

Will she give up eating Chilean Sea Bass? Al Gore had that served at a big recent party of his.

[goldstategop]

This is really stupid... I'm not reducing my carbon footprint one iota.

I’ll never give them up ...

:o)

[ronnie raygun]

Wow I feel so elated that someone out their is actually doing something to fight global warming. HOW ABOUT SELLING YOUR HUGE HOUSE THATS SUCKING UP ALL THIS ENERGY! HOW LONG DOES PRETTY BOY STAY UNDER A DRYER? What a bunch of idiots! No, I got that wrong, the idiots are the ones who think he’s the one to vote for in 2008! If there ever was a more insincere person, Oh I forgot thiers Hilda beast!

[aruanan]

No Tangerines For You? (Elizabeth Edwards Will Give Up Tangerines to Fight Global Warming)

Well, at least it won't be too long until her carbon footprint completely disappears. Oh, wait, was that cruel?

[razorback-bert]

I will do my part and give up Tamarinds.
