STOP BY A BUMP THE FUNDRAISER THREAD

Meanwhile, Carson’s disciples have managed to persuade many poor countries to stop using DDT against mosquitoes. The result has been an enormous increase in the number of people dying of malaria each year. Today malaria infects between 300 million and 500 million people annually, killing as many 2.7 million of them.

Millions dead, all for the sake of bolstering the New Yorker-reading Chardonnay socialists' self esteem. Still, they're only darkies in foreign lands, so I guess it's a fair trade, in the grand utilitarian scheme of things.

Its a weak stew.

Taken individually, each of the elements of the environmentalist wacko agenda can be shown to be a weak stew. Unfortunately, the evironmentalist wacko conspiracy has learned the big lie technique of the Stalinists. Their agenda is endorsed by left wing bureaucracies at the state and local level, and worst of all are part of the indoctrination of the left wing NEA constituencies. It is packaged there as part of the overall puff and pap that is taught to children throughtout their public school careers.

The leadership of this movement doesn't give a hoot in hell about the environment although their fellow travelers might. What they care about is the elimination of private property and our basic freedoms. They know best for us. One simple question that never gets answered by the environmentalist movement--when are you going to give up your internal combustion engine powered vehicles as an example? Another might be--why are you heating your domiciles with fossil fuels, firewood, etc; why not wind and solar? Why aren't you demonstrating your committment?

Stop the attacks by the wacko, extreme left-wing, enviro-nazis terrorist's on our Freedoms !!

Freedom Is Worth Fighting For !!
