If you have some spare time and want to laugh Annie Leonard is at it again. You may recall her from the inaccurate, misquoted, lie filled video The Story of Stuff. If you don't know about that your kids probably do. I covered that at Annie Leonard – Story of Stuff misrepresentations.
Well now that Cap & Trade is approaching a final vote to "necessarily skyrocket" your electric bills while President Obama kicks back in Copenhagen, Leonard decided to put in her warped views. But I have to give her this, much like a broken clock being right occassionally, she gets part of this video right. I guess you have to chalk it up to the law of probabilities - everything is probably if only infantessimally so.
But before your kids go to school and learn more brainwashing (sorry I mean 'get educated') on this subject I present you a correction, and then her video. It's kind of like the disclaimer that has to be shown to kids in Britian before they can see Al Gore's factually corrupt An Inconvienent Truth (which he will not discuss with anyone - go figure).
Perhaps one of the most telling things about this new fanatical ultra-left video is the lesson Annie Leonard learned from creating the first. Annie Leonard choose not to include any sources of her "facts" stated in this video. I suppose that having everyone point out her misquotes and falsehoods stated in the factsheet from the first video was her wqake up call that parents and others pay attention to what she is spewing. Or she just decided to do what Al Gore does, just ignore anyone that might provide opposing facts and questions.
If you watch any video of Annie Leonard I suggest you do so from the point of view that you might have with when seeing a bad B-movie. At least you don't have to pay for the bad script and cheesy effects.
