The Fish wrapper invites us to join Earth Hour 2008
Become part of the “global wave” with Phil Gordon, Al Gore
Never missing an opportunity to extol Phoenix’s “Sanctuary City” mayor, the editorialists went a bit whack-joby on us today, writing: Mayor Phil Gordon made a smart move in putting Phoenix on the Earth Hour list. The city aspires to be a showcase for 21st-century living—being “green” is an essential feature.
Dozens of cities are official participants, including Bangkok, Dubai, Mexico City and Toronto. Phoenix is among four in the United States.
Wonder how that happened?
Phil’s abiding affection for Mexico’s “undocumented” is well documented. And, he has been traveling to Dubai of late to facilitate global economic interaction between Phoenix and that oil-rich hot spot.
We are invited to turn off our lights and sit in the darkness with the Arizona Republic, this Saturday evening from 8:00 - 9:00 PM. to show our solidarity with the earth and environment.
Do so at your own risk. Liberalism incubates, becoming highly contagious in the dark.

And now (”Oh no!!!”) Mr. Phil and Al will demonstrate the true meaning of the word “benighted.”

With the high crime rate in Phoenix, giving the cover of darkness to facilitate more criminal activity undetected is just the ticket. Ah, Philly Gordon, you are one heck of a deep thinker. No wonder your wife took a hike.

Does anyone remember the liberal, feel-good, “Hands Across America” in the early 1980’s? Americans were supposed to form human chains from city to city, linking hands. This is the same type of “linking.” Instead of hands, it’s lights off—or maybe brains off?
