Hypocritical Fools

Girl of Hept

This guy came to my door
Full of enthusiasm
Reeking of sincerity
Obviously devout in his cause
So I looked at his pamphlet
Admiring the nice high gloss paper
Probably took a whole tree to make it
And there was the name
World Wildlife Fund
The same fund that sued the wrestlers
Destroying thousands of trees
All to print the paperwork
So I smiled
Said thanks but no thanks
As he left
I complimented him on his jacket
True leather
I asked what fortunate beast it was ripped off
He looked confused
Said God Bless
And left

Kinda says it all really

There aren't many people in the world who can make me want to club a seal, but that mob manages it.  The environment is too serious an issue to be put in the hands of do-gooders.  I wonder how the bikie gangs would go collecting door-to-door for koalas?  Something to bring up at their next meeting...

 Love the irony in this.  Reminds me of when I was 18 and worked as a waitress, protestors came in for lunch, a big rowdy crowd, protesting across the street the develoment of land on what was swamp land and habitat for ducks, etc.

it struck me as funny they sat in a restaurant built on the same land they were protesting eating their burgers.

live by example  say, especially the unconscious examples you set every day.  As a mom I learn quickly what those are!

Thanks Shannon, your comments are always appreciated. And another good point you have made on the subject also!
