so the future of the world is wrapped up in this old C&W song.
“I’m just an old chunk of coal,
But I’m gonna be a diamond some day”.
Where to start...
Oil companies do not receive subsidies, green power does.
Carbon does not eat, it binds.
If only Ed Wood were still alive.
Sounds like a plot line.
Wait - didn't Al Gore already do that?
I have a funny story to tell you along these lines
A year ago I did a talk in China at an energy forum and at the end of it was invited to be part of a panel discussion. There were about 300 or so people in attendance. The two speakers ahead of the panel were climate change advocates and policy wonks from Beijing who worked both for the government (in their equivalent of the Dept of Energy) and a university (in some environmental studies programs). Anyway, there was a fair number of high level energy folks from Beijing at this affair (including one who I would call the Big Boss) and the two previous speakers did their best to follow the line that climate change is real, its happening and we should be doing something about it and in fact, here is what we are doing right now to reduce our CO2 emissions but we should be doing much more. In the panel discussion afterward, I essentially trashed all climate change propaganda and told them that there was a good reason to reduce energy use because that had impact on their product competitiveness, there was good reason to clean up the air because we all have to breathe
. but as far as climate change, that was a complete hoax. A few hours later, I happened to be in an elevator and who should step in but the big boss himself with his entourage
. He recognized me and through a translator, he said to me Came all the way from Beijing
heard nothing but nonsense except panel discussion which had the only common sense heard all day.
More likely an excuse to fast-track more federal money to his bundlers before they take the piggybank away.
TO obama: “GET THEE FROM MY REPUBLIC AND GET THEE FROM ME”.
LLS
If all of the leftist, carbon-based life forms would simply volunteer to be launched into the sun, we would all be better off.
His green friends are broke and they need more money so they can file for bankruptcy, Time to remove this communist and his ilk from our government.
LOL! Us oldtimers remember this button from 1964, when the Democrats issued this same button, with Barry Goldwater's image.
“By the way, yes, my plan will reduce the carbon pollution that is eating our planet because climate change is not a hoax.”
Three lies in one sentence.
Every thing that lives on this planet is chemically composed of and consumes carbon to continue living. And, aside from dirt, since we and our furry, feathered, finned, mould, and leafy co-residents qualify to be called “the Planet” the whole thing seems to be quite the symbiotic arrangement. I guess we don’t really need to get a look at any of his transcripts to know the subjects of biology and chemistry aren’t there.
How stupid do they think we are? Never mind. Almost half the population of Nuevo Amerika are blithering idiots.
What a freaking maroon.
Some years ago Rush Limbaugh devoted his radioo program to global warming. He explain at great lengths the components of “greenhouse gases.” As I recall, water vapor, methane gas and carbon dioxide are the greatest components for “greenhouse gases.”
Not sure what you can do about water vapor but the two greatest sources of methane gas are cows and men over 40, and carbon dioxide is a component of respiration.
So what do we do? Slaughter all cattle and men over 40 and stop breeding?
I’m old enough to remember the false alarm about Ozone and the child’s story about “Chicken Little.”
I would no more trust Obama and the progressives in Congress to identify and correct a genuine crisis, anymore than I would rely on my four-year-old granddaughter to do the same.
See my offer to obama to perform CARBEX on him and his friends.

This lunacy is so absurd it is difficult to take it seriously. Carbon life is eating our planet, yummy, yummy, yummy, got our kids in the tummy, and Obama is a veggie headed dummy.
I thought carbon was inert and harmless.
Oxygen, on the other hand, tears things apart all over the place. We should ban oxygen.
