Build-A-Bear to Kids: Santa Will Die

So Build-A-Bear has created a web site just for kids, Build-A-Bear-Ville (http://www.buildabearville.com/). Seems innocent enough, until you dig a little further. As it turns out, Build-A-Bear (that store, likely in your local mall, that creates cute, cuddly stuffed animals for your kids while you wait) is a global warming activist company. The video series implies Santa's impending doom, as the North Pole melts under his feet. This is ironic, since they're assaulting capitalism--the very institution that allows their stupid company to exist.

Want to fight back? First, email, write, or call their alarmist president, Maxine Clark:

Maxine Clark
Founder and Chief Executive Bear

Build-A-Bear Workshop
1954 Innerbelt Business Center Drive
St. Louis, Mo 63114
PH: 314-423-8000 ext 5202
FX: 866-844-5229
email: maxine@buildabear.com
http://www.buildabear.com

Next, go to the business office of your local mall and complain. Make sure dear old Maxine and their Board get the message that you won't allow them to indoctrinate our children using fear. Hit 'em where it hurts...in the pocket.

But when your unsuspecting tot logs on and hops a virtual train to the North Pole…you should know that he or she will be informed — by Santa Claus — that Christmas may be canceled this year due to Global Warming. Below is part two of the 3-part video.

Airlines and "green" corporations

Environmentalism
The fruitcakes will miss the airlines when they're gone and no longer able to shuttle them around to their fruitcake climate speaking engagements (oh, that's right...Al Gore uses a private jet--silly me).

Fear not Airbus, all honest, capitalistic entities are under fire right now, because the fuel of capitalism is oil—plain and simple. Even Al Gore could understand that…uh, never mind. At any rate, all Airbus needs to do is just pretend to care, as other savvy corporations have done.

Many business board rooms have demonstrated smarts and recognize a government-backed, lunatic-supported boondoggle when they see it; they’ve constructed elaborate “green” campaigns to convince everyone—government and consumers—that they’re doing something to save the planet from global warming, which is nonsense. It’s very similar to the campaign by cigarette companies to convince consumers not to smoke; how ridiculous is that?

If one believes that fossil fuel use is warming the Earth (and IT IS NOT) then one must also believe that capitalism can’t exist in its current form, because no fuel or energy is efficient enough to drive the current world economy at the pace needed to continue growth and stave off recessions or depressions.

These “green corporations” are just riding the profiteering wave like everyone else; as I said—manmade climate change equals BOONDOGGLE, and liberals and conservatives are signing on to the BS network. You can play along and rake in some bucks, or you can resist the stupidity like me and be dragged before the new McCarthy hearings—this time for a love of capitalism, not communism.

Airbus boss says aviation unfairly targeted over climate change:

The aviation industry is being unfairly targeted over climate change and future reductions in aircraft emissions should be based on technological innovation rather than regulation, Airbus chief Tom Enders said Wednesday.

"We think it's a little bit unfair that the aviation sector is singled out for attack by many environmental groups, maybe because we are more visible than other groups," Enders told a media briefing in Auckland.
