The Hound Of Ulster

Apparently Alaska is not particularly AMUSED by the Goremiester:

Local businessman Craig Compeau on Monday unveiled an ice sculpture of the 2007 Nobel Prize winner and leader in the movement to draw attention to climate change and global warming.

The 8 1/2-foot-tall, 5-ton bust of the former vice president dominates a downtown street corner from its perch on the back of a flatbed truck.

Compeau says he’s a “moderate” critic of global warming theories. He used the unveiling of the sculpture to invite Gore to Fairbanks to explain his global warming theories.

The sculpture even has its own WEBSITE, courtesty of a business that sells snowmobiles and ATV’s.  (And here’s a little ARTICLE that might show why they’re not amused.  Sure, it got warm.  But it was a bit chilly before that.)

Remember THIS?

Well, it’s gone now:

You can even read the blog, hear all the latest news and current events, and share your thoughts and feedback with the President.

We’ll be adding new content and features every day, so we hope you’ll bookmark WhiteHouse.gov and visit often. In the meantime, you can use the search field below to find more information on President Obama and the Administration.

I find the inclusion of the phrase “the change America needs” highly amusing/depressing.  And no, I’m not surprised this happened; it seems perfectly reasonable for a new administration to put its eStamp on the White House website.  Nor am I particularly offended by it.

Just disappointed.
