There's no pleasing the greeniacs, I suppose. Eco-evangelism knows no holiday as environmentalists take aim at the buses ferrying caravans of Obama fans to the swearing-in.

Perhaps showing that the only criticism of Obama the print media finds worthy of printing is mild critiques from the left, today's "Inauguration Watch" digest in the Washington Post has the story in a 5-paragraph squib printed on page B4:

Environmental advocates are concerned about the impact on air quality caused by the thousands of buses that are descending on Washington.

...

Clean Air Watch Director Frank O'Donnell said the "virtual armada of diesel buses" rolling into town might actually have a positive impact. Black clouds of soot might be exactly what it will take to raise awareness for policy change, he said.

Thanks for the laugh Ken.

I managed to avoid much of the hot air today, but after reading five stories on NewsBusters I was ready to kick the dog. The chuckle that I had after being reminded what kooks these people really are saved the dog a swift boot (for now)!

I heard there were at least 400 expected.

Yes, but at least it wasn't

Yes, but at least it wasn't hot, so the masses didn't smell too bad.

One of the 24% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 89% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory.
