"Save New Orleans, Stop Global Warming"? I'm confused. I thought that we were supposed to save the whales to save New Orleans? Or was it the free range chickens? (I'm always getting them mixed up.)

Not one 'rat Senator voted for it when Clinton sent a draft treaty to the Senate.

"Protest organizers want Bush to sign on to the Kyoto Agreements, adopted in 1997 and ratified by 140 countries. The agreements call on the top 35 industrialized nations to cut emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases to 5.2 percent below their 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012."

Not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent.

So far everyone including Canada that has signed on ot the Kyoto treaty says they cant reach its demands and that its hurting their economy. Why should we sign and be hurting too?

It seems all the hollering would tend to increase global warming; at least locally.

"This is not just an environmental issue; it's a survival issue," said Ted Glick, who heads a group called Climate Crisis Coalition. to which Ted's older wiser brother Jiminy replied "Don't listen to him,he's an a$$"

In New Orleans, residents plan to hold a "Save New Orleans, Stop Global Warming" party in the French Quarter.

Someone better tell Calypso Louie that global warming blew up the levees!

I hope that anyone who attends the rallies will attempt to get there via transportation whose propulsive system does not emit carbon dioxide.

(That pretty much eliminates everything except fuel cell cars that run solely on hydrogen and nuclear-powered submarines.) Human-powered transportation doesn't qualify, of course. But the exercise should put things in perspective regarding the relationship between energy and emissions.

"... to cut emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases to 5.2 percent below their 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012."

We could do that just by getting rid of the top Democrat leadership. Heck, Teddy alone probably accounts for a full percent of that, if not more!

Everyone is urged to drive their cars, and buy a big mac in the old cfc foam on the way there.

I just finished that book. Not one of his better ones but he sure sticks it to the earthfirst nutjobs.

Have you seen the freaks tearing it up on amazon.com?

If these Moonbats want to combat Global Warming perhaps they should take up the issue with the biggest global warmer of them all.
