Regardless of your stance on climate change, if you ask me, sitting in the parking lot of a Timmy’s and wastefully idling your car for sixty minutes, presumably to make some sort of counterpoint to “Earth Hour”… is just plain dumb. I suppose it’s never occurred to the boneheads behind this little stunt that it’s kind of ironic for so-called “conservatives” to be opposing… you know, conservation.
Sadly, this is the kooky, ridiculous sort of gesture the Right has been reduced to these days. Whether it’s laughably “Tea Bagging the White House,” petulantly “Going Galt” (as if anyone cares, or would even notice), or now sitting in the parking lot of an obscure doughnut shop, inhaling noxious car exhaust for an hour… all these futile stunts do is remind people how impotent and bereft of ideas (not to mention emotional stability) the enfeebled Right has become.
