Sheryl Crow's Wipe Out

Another genius from the Left offers a plan to save us all. Sheryl Crow wants to force you - yes, YOU - to use only one-square of toilet paper per sitting. This, she says, will save Panet Erf. It's a crappy idea. Perhaps we could use catalog pages.

Crow writes on her blog: "Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating. One of my favorites is in the area of conserving trees which we heavily rely on for oxygen. I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting. Now, I don't want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required." FULL STORY...

Did she really say that her ideas are "in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating?" How much more development does this idea need? Will she get a committe together to further develop the methods for wiping one's self with only one square of TP? Will there be a grant involved? A Congressional panel? Will fellow Leftists be pissed off that she referenced God?

This is a shitty idea. For even more excrement, read Sheryl Crow's war on toilet paper and In Fluffy WashPost Earth Day Profile, Sheryl Crow Cites UN's 'Conservative Scientists'

    Jesus, how I absolutely hate, hate, HATE Earth Day. I say this as a person who is committed reducing my energy consumption to minimal levels, does not own a car, and uses less than 110KwH a month in electricity.

    All Earth Day is, is a symbolic event long on empty rhetoric and symbolism, replete with shilling of "green" products, and opportunities for politicians and celebrities to get their stupid mugs in front of a camera and bray about their superior "green" crendentials while continuing to lead obscenely extravagent and wasteful lifestyles replete with fleets of expensive autos AND planes, 25,000 sq. ft. houses in ecologically sensitive areas, and personal luxury consumption per individuals that equals the GDP of an undeveloped country. It also causes the waste of lots of jet fuel and, now, potential food (biodeisal, ethanol) ferrying said celebrities to events.

    It's bad enough to hear Hizzoner Da Mare bray about how he wants to make Chicago the "greenest city" when he has done nothing but starve our transit system of the funding necessary for daily operations and turn it into a political football, while rubberstamping approvals for 130+ story buildings that are distictly NOT "green".

    But it is beyond insufferable to have to listen to some dimwit, overpaid entertainer who, were it not for an astonishing stroke of luck, would be standing behind a cash register at Target or "working" a hot-sheet motel, tell ME that I have to descend to 15th Century levels of hygiene and sanitation while SHE continues to drive a $100K automobile and live in a dwelling that I feel sure way exceeds my 4-room apt on Pratt in both use of materials and non-renewable resources. Most likely , she has a personal carbon footprint equal to every resident in Rogers Park, Edgewater, and Evanston rolled together, especially should she, like other rich celebs, happen to live in a $10MM palace on the ecologically sensitive and fire-prone Malibu coast.

    Let Ms. Crow unload her house and car, and reduce her energy and resource consumption to what I use, and I'll think about reducing my TP use.
