Leonardo DiCaprio to save environment by flying all over the world
In an interview with Germany’s mass circulation daily Bild, the 38-year-old American actor said: “I am a bit drained. I’m now going to take a long, long break. I’ve done three films in two years and I’m just worn out.”
“I would like to improve the world a bit. I will fly around the world doing good for the environment,” added DiCaprio, in comments published in German.

He’s played make believe three whole time in two years and now he’s tired. What a F.A.G.

I’m going to do my part for the environment by burning a pile of tires. Then I’ll dump some used motor oil in the creek. Us little people can’t afford to ride a big plane to help the environment.

He also rents yachts stocked with bikinis. What’s the carbon footprint of that? Or, are they still pretending buying stock in companies that plant trees absolves them of following their own rules?

I read this the other day and LOL’d. Nothing like preaching to everyone else about Mother Earth or whatever while flying around in your personal jet. But his electric car gets him off the hook, I guess. /

Three films, zero Oscar nominations. He’s not “worn out”, he’s throwing a hissy fit.

Because conservatives swim or maybe teleport. Fox Nation the bastion of stupidity even Fox News envies.

“I won’t actually stay in any of the world’s crapholes that I profess to have a deep affection for, no sir, I will simply fly in for a quick photo-op and then leave for some place nice like Biarritz. I like little brown people, don’t get me wrong, I just don’t want them touching me.”

ROFL
What, Leo can’t make himself sit in coach with the Hoi Polloi, or at the least Business Class on a plane holding 300 other people?
Leo isn’t a big fan of guns either yet his bodyguards are armed with high tech iron.

What is he? Afraid of oceanliners?!?!?!

So, old Jack is going to fly all over the world, telling others not to fly all over the world.
There is a “bastion of stupidity” alright. Just not where you think it is.

He’s such a queen.
Pork-Chop on January 21, 2013 at 9:31 AM
Perhaps he can take Cuomo with him to talk about the “sanctity of life”
A hypocritical twofer so to speak.
Jabberwock on January 21, 2013 at 9:34 AM
Maybe he’s taking a self-powered hot air balloon.
RadClown on January 21, 2013 at 9:42 AM
Yeah, and we all have private jets just like Leo. And I think there’s some medication you can take for that incoherent Fox News obsession.

Actually this conservative does swim – about 8 miles a week. It’s really hard work which is probably why you never see a dem in the pool.

The funny thing is that he doesn’t know how stupid he is.
Ellis on January 21, 2013 at 10:15 AM
Every word of the script torn from his soul I suppose. What a man to give his all to art and nearly kill himself with creative exhaustion. Is there a fund to send appreciation money to?

Liberal statists have now descended below the level of mere hypocrisy. A hypocrite may know he/she is a hypocrite but will not flaunt it. They try to keep up appearances most of the time.
People like Dicaprio and 2/3 of our federal government, though, are now in full Aristocrat mode – unlike hypocrites, they have dispensed with appearing to care because they’ve now gained the freedom not to have to. Not only do they not give a crap what you think, they will boldly continue to tell you what to do despite their own transgressions of the very same codes.
Such is the illusory, deceptive insulation from the world that passing wealth appears to afford. But there are no pockets on the shroud, and there is the Lake of Fire, lest they repent. Let that thought cheer you up, if nothing else does.

Maybe Travolta can fly him, in his Qantas 707. Those things burn jet fuel like it’s going out of style.
