Remember that CEI video we mentioned last month, the one attempting to cast doubt upon global warming? We found it amusing; but many people had far more visceral reactions.

Howard Mortman collected them here. Several are gems; here’s our favorite:

You sick lying soulless ignorant son’s of bitch’s! Selling out that kid in your commercials future for a few more dollars. Nothing in the Science supports the misleading claims in your adds. You can expect an especially large amount of warming in your future… IN HELL! Anyway have a good day… Jackasses! Ignorance and greed mixed together… what a shitty combination.

More heartfelt responses to the CEI ad appear after the jump.

As we previously mentioned, last night Team Wonkette attended the annual CEI Dinner. We’ve already given you some great photos from the event. Now we provide you with this more detailed write-up of the proceedings, as promised.

All in all, it was an excellent evening. P.J. O’Rourke was in funny, fine form. The liquor flowed liberally, and the after-party featured free cigars and cigarettes (plus scrumptious chocolate eclairs).

And did we mention the dancing libertarians? What more can one ask for?

Our full take on the evening, including more excellent pictures by Liz Gorman, appears after the jump.
