Who created "Al Gore's Penguin Army," a two-minute video now playing on YouTube.com?
You've heard that global warming is a scary fairy tale created by the Left, and Al Gore is the evil dragon waiting to be slayed. But did you know that the handsome prince who will save us from the dragon is rumored to be none other than Exxon?
If Exxon is the handsome prince, the damsel in distress better get busy writing her obit.
Recall that Exxon was recently termed the Enemy of the Planet by Paul Krugman.
Where did that video spoofing Gore's film come from?
Everyone knows Al Gore stars in the global warming documentary "An Inconvenient Truth." But who created "Al Gore's Penguin Army," a two-minute video now playing on YouTube.com?
In the video, Mr. Gore appears as a sinister figure who brainwashes penguins and bores movie audiences by blaming the Mideast crisis and starlet Lindsay Lohan's shrinking waist size on global warming. Like other videos on the popular YouTube site, it has a home-made, humorous quality. The video's maker is listed as "Toutsmith," a 29-year-old who identifies himself as being from Beverly Hills in an Internet profile.
In an email exchange with The Wall Street Journal, Toutsmith didn't answer when asked who he was or why he made the video, which has just over 59,000 views on YouTube. However, computer routing information contained in an email sent from Toutsmith's Yahoo account indicate it didn't come from an amateur working out of his basement.
Instead, the email originated from a computer registered to DCI Group, a Washington, D.C., public relations and lobbying firm whose clients include oil company Exxon Mobil Corp.
