Enviromentalist stink up the place

John McCaslin:

"We've been holding our nose while reading the exchanges after CNSNews.com senior staff writer Marc Morano wrote on the 34th annual Earth Day that some in the green movement are advocating 'diaper-free' babies to help save the planet.

" 'Citing concerns about plastic disposable diapers clogging landfills and the amount of washing and detergents that cloth diapers require, many environmentalists are taking a page from tribal cultures and seeking to eliminate the use of the baby diapers altogether,' Mr. Morano observed.

" 'There is a way to have a baby and NOT use diapers,' says one Web site advocating diaperless babies. Parents are urged to get in tune with their infant's body signals and hold babies over toilets, buckets and shrubbery or any other convenient receptacle when nature calls.

"Writes Belinda of Birmingham, Ala.: 'Now I know the environmentalists have gone mad. Who wants to lug a bucket for baby excrement while shopping with a diaperless baby?'

"Wonders Ed of Tampa, Fla.: 'We are urged to 'hold babies over ... any other convenient receptacle when nature calls.' Does a wacko tree hugger qualify as a "convenient receptacle?"

"Predicts Debra W. of Wamego, Kan.: 'I can see it now — signs posted saying, "Please remember to clean up your baby poop."

"Finally, John H. of Pensacola, Fla., weighs in: 'Just when I thought the liberals couldn't get any dumber, they go and prove me wrong. It doesn't surprise me to see Al Gore's name mentioned in this article ...'

" 'What political party supports these geniuses? Hint: It begins with the same letter that "diaper" does. I wasn't for [President] Bush's Mars exploration plans, but if we could send these people there, I might change my mind.' "
