The Flim-Flam man and his cohorts. Out fishing for suckers.

Generation Investment Management (GIM).

GIMME?

[Doctor Raoul]

Only liberals are dumb enough to fall for this scam.

But it feels good...

"Forgive me, Earth Father, for I have polluted."

"What was the manner of your pollution?"

"I have emitted too much greenhouse gas."

"Purchase three carbon offsets, my son."

"Thank you, Earth Father, I feel cleansed."

[Mrs.Z]

What do you call it when the government takes your $$$?

TAXES STUPID!

Only dims could come up with it. Only dims could fall for it.

[Jacquerie]

Recall how Dan Quayle endured endless ridicule for misspelling “potato.”

Quayle should have claimed both to invent the internet and be the actual male interest in “Love Story.” Had he done like algore, he would have been taken seriously.

As I’ve said many times........follow the money. Al Gore wouldn’t be doing this if he wasn’t going to make millions. The same goes for all the other companies involved.

“Would the romance fizzle if Gore’s followers realized how much their man stands to gain?...... “

No. As long as the scam promotes fascism and the destruction of America and individual liberty, the lemming useful idiots will cheer it on. Only if a personal consequence exists will the cheering mobs for fuhrer Gore stop.

In an easy way to explain it, lets say I have a car that can’t pass the smog test here in California. So instead of fixing it, I go to algore and buy some carbon offsets because the offsets are cheaper than fixing my car. Then I go to the smog station and show them the carbon offsets I bought. Then they have to pass my car no matter how much it smokes. So I pull out of the smog station, my car in a cloud of smoke, but I got my registration for another year. Everyone is happy and algore is richer.

Clinton and Gore proposed a carbon tax when they first took office. Guess they are going the route - that if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.

Wish they hadn’t tainted a quality cliche.

***But the President is unwilling to call for mandatory nationwide emissions rules and instead favors voluntary carbon-emission cuts in the private sector. This is deeply frustrating to all the brokers, wheeler-dealers and interest groups that want to jump on the cap-and-trade bandwagon. There are billions of dollars to be made in trading emissions credits. But first the federal government must force everyone to play the game.

EMPHASIS MINE.

[Army Air Corps]

I am going to sell water credits. Send $100 to me and I shall use my backyard instead of my toilet for the “call of nature.”

[Suzy Quzy]

How many Carbon Credits has Algor bought to pay off his ZINC MINE POLLUTION on his TENNESSEE Property??????

[avacado]

"Would the romance fizzle if Gore’s followers realized how much their man stands to gain?...... "

If Gore pulls this scam off, he'll be the richest person on the planet and the most morally deprived.

Why is it that only politicians and journalists are the ones in the forefront promoting this circus? All the real scientist have vanished!

[SuziQ]

Lot of incestuous relationships in that carbon trading scam.

[SunkenCiv]

I sell carbon credits, $1 per pencil. Help the Democrats sweep both houses and the Presidency, and we’ll all be selling pencils.

[AwesomePossum]

Since socialism, generally speaking, does not generate its own money (unlike free enterprise), socialism is constantly looking for new ways to extract cash..............

Carbon credits are merely a new way for socialists to raise money for socialist causes...........a Marxist bake sale, if you will..........
