And unfiltered at that...

Unfiltered in this case, would be much better. Easier to field strip and there is no filter to worry about shredding.

It must be understood about the eco-wackos that the rules they propose are for us to follow. They are exempt. In fact, the real idea is to make everyone poor so that there isn't so much competition for the lobsters and such. To get us out of our SUV's and cars so that the roads are clear for them to drive on. After all, thier concerns are important while we are all on our silly little errands like supporting our families.

300 and 400 tons of trash, and so far, just 20 percent of it is being recycled. "We never had any illusions this would be a green summit," Mary Metcalfe, the environment minister of the Gauteng province....

Now wait just a dadgummed minute here, this is supposed to be a Summit FOR enviromental concerns as well as poverty concerns. What am I missing here???? THEY don't have to follow by the same rules they are trying to force down our throats??? They think we are all DEEP THROAT (from the porn movie) and they are just going to stuff it down OUR throats!!!! SHEESH!!!!

Just another look at the reality of the Fascist Elitists of the UN Enviral Nazis.

Champagne, caviar, lobster and wanton waste of precious resources are their legacy.

Reminds me of the Goron when he flew in Air Force One to illegally sign the Kyoto Treaty, the ulitimate $crew America, concept. His trip to repay his Green Masters consumed a whole lot of jet fuel on that round trip. There was probably more pollution than the all the SUVs in America for a month from his trip.

These are the New Nazis. Instead of admitting that they are Fasctists like their role models, they lie and say that they are for the environment.

Their personal actions getting to this massive Orgy and Gang banging of America shows their reality. They conserve nothing and live the life of royalty.

Thank goodness for the internet so that we can see their wretched reality versus their eco pr images.

Yes! Running water, toilets, electricity--Good for me, but not for thee (official Tm of the World Summit)

On a related note, here's an article from another thread that touches on the same arrogance:

Enviromental Group Pollutes River!!
Virginian- Pilot (Norfolk, VA) ^ | 8/30/02 | Scott Harper


Posted on 08/31/2002 5:40 PM Eastern by Don@VB


The state Department of Juvenile Justice shut down a ship-based environmental program for young criminal offenders Thursday after determining that supervisors ordered the teenagers to dump human feces and sewage overboard into the Elizabeth River.The Tidewater Environmental Program was centered on a donated Navy ship docked behind Nauticus on the downtown waterfront. Juveniles lived aboard the vessel and learned about seamanship, responsibility and environmental stewardship while completing their sentences.

"The United States..., along with officials of the European Union, has refused demands to specify reductions in agricultural subsidies."

Shame, shame! The only decent number for the subsidy reductions is 100%.

"There is no reason that the poor of the world should be poor for ever," he said in a speech at a stadium in the squalid Alexandra township."

Yes, the only reason the poor are poor is because of idiots like Robert Mugabe. Do you have the courage to say that, Mr. Mbeki?

Reminds me of Al Gore's SUV, which he quickly garaged when the newsies finally noticed it.
