You flew to moon ... now save Earth
The Sun | 3/4/09 | GEORGE PASCOE-WATSON

Posted on 03/04/2009 5:31:23 PM PST by Nachum

GORDON Brown last night urged America to use the drive that put man on the Moon to save the Earth.

The PM called on the US to “seize the moment” and lead the world out of economic crisis with green technology.

Mr Brown forecast the global economy could DOUBLE — if America, Britain and the EU worked together for a “Global New Deal”.

He warned America not to close its doors to foreign competition — saying protectionism would “protect no one”.

You know, I’ve just decided that snubbing this idiot is one of the few things Obama’s done that I can get behind.

The best thing we can do to save Earth is ignore everything he says.

GORDON Brown last night urged America to use the drive that put man on the Moon to save the Earth.

Unfortunately, we only put a man inside a historic Burbank studio (Chaplin, Harold Lloyd had used it) where a stage set was made to look like the moon (and it was a good job by Hollywood professionals, we must admit.)
