John F. Kerry is a swell guy. He´s also real clever with words. Like the time he forbid you from driving an SUV. He would never drive an SUV. The SUV in his garage isn´t his, its "the family SUV".
"The senator EXPECTS to travel commercially as he has to past climate conferences,” the aide said, adding that the details of Kerry’s travel arrangement were CONTINGENT upon the Senate’s schedule."
Oh bravo senator! You travel commercial flights to all the climate conferences. I must have missed mention of the Gulfstream used for your other 150 flights a year.
Here´s the part where he promotes his website and asks you to give him money.
"That´s why I´ll be launching TruthFightsBack.com to fight back against the lies from Big Oil and other forces of the status quo,” the announcement says right before a link that can be clicked to make a donation. “And I need your help. They are already putting millions of dollars behind the distortions; we need to do all we can to give the truth a fighting chance." - CNS
John Kerry´s net worth is $163 million, so if I were you I wouldn´t give him a Canadian nickel. Unless of course you married some old hag that´s richer than John´s wife, and you need to relieve some of your guilt. In which case, the ´Buy A Brutha A Beer´ link is just to the right over there.
I´d like to take a stand and boycott the Heinz brand that his wife owns, but their damn stuff is way better than Del Monte.
China has the most people (1.3 billion) and produces more pollution than any other country on the planet. But they have a solution! Be more like us!
"Population and climate change are intertwined but the population issue has remained a blind spot when countries discuss ways to mitigate climate change and slow down global warming, according to Zhao Baige, vice-minister of National Population and Family Planning Commission of China (NPFPC).
"Dealing with climate change is not simply an issue of CO2 emission reduction but a comprehensive challenge involving political, economic, social, cultural and ecological issues, and the population concern fits right into the picture," said Zhao, who is a member of the Chinese government delegation." - Chinese Daily
Just a note. The Chinese method of population control is called forced abortions and female infanticide. That means killing off female babies up to the moment that they take their first breath. And apparently even that isn´t stopping their population, so what do they have in mind for us besides lead painted toys?
In China´s defense, I stayed at the Holiday Inn near Doumen China, and their breakfast buffet was off the hook.
Even though I could host a more productive meeting by inviting a bunch of homeless guys to my house for a stinky fart contest, the Copenhagen Climate Summit continues to take itself seriously.
“Political will will never be stronger,” said Connie Hedegaard, the president of the conference. “This is our chance — if we miss this one, it could take years before we get a new and better one, if we ever did.” - Politico
I think what Connie is really saying is that no one cares anymore, and they all know it. UN climate chief Yvo de Boer followed Hedegaard with a formal statement of his well-known position:
“The time for formal statements is over. The time for restating well-known positions is past,”
Then the New York Post issued the most dire warning of all. It would suck a lot more to live in one of the worlds 60 smallest countries than to attend Copenhagen in the style of its guests.
"Some 40,000 tons of carbon will be spewed getting this crowd together and keeping them in comfort.
That is the amount of carbon dioxide produced by more than 60 of the world´s smaller countries in an entire year -- combined. - NY Post
Meanwhile, the man that would have been the Commander and Chief of the most powerful military in the history of the universe, donned a beret and penned a 21 line poem about himself:
Just this morning I had a man-made-climate-change Xanax attack because it´s December and it´s 85 degrees outside. Then someone slapped me and said "Hey asshole, you´re in the southern hemisphere. It´s summer here."
I said "Well yeah, BUT STILL!!!"
The White House insists that any reason to institute new taxes climate change is upon us.
"I don´t think that´s anything that is, quite frankly, among most people, in dispute anymore," he said during Monday´s press briefing." Robert Gibbs - The Hill
Yeah it´s man made climate change alright! We read "the man´s" emails last week! Even if most people do believe in climate change (they don´t), could it be because the scientists whose stipends depend on the fad, produce data that perpetuates the claims? I can argue man made global warming seven ways to Sunday. But I lose fans when math is involved, so I won´t.
The constantly hypocrital party that claims to have the best interest of minorities at heart appears to have preferences when it comes to skin color. Voters were given a choice between a photo of a lighter-skinned version of Barack Obama versus a darker-skinned version and most voters who consider themselves Democrats last year selected the lighter version.
One of the researchers, Eugene Caruso of the University of Chicago, discovered that participants whose partisanship was the same as that of the candidate "consistently rated the lightened photographs as more representative of the candidate than the darkened photographs, whereas participants whose partisanship did not match that of the candidate showed the opposite pattern." - The Grio
Don´t expect the media to report this.
I´m neither Democrat or Republican, but when shown a light version and a dark version of Michael Jackson and asked "which looks like they have a shot at a medical malpractice suit and the next Batman movie?" I answered like the liberals in the study. Sha-mo!
Barack Obama has announced that a climate deal probably won´t happen this year. A climate deal would require that everyone goes the extra mile to reduce unnecessary use of fossil fuels and electricity however they can and since man made global warming is the biggest scam since the Catholics invented Indulgences not everyone is ready to make that leap.
Barack hopes that in place of a climate deal, his actions set an example to everyman that change is possible, and a brighter future comes from a greener today. He reduced the size of his motorcade to only 71 cars.
Maybe I´m an idiot. Ok, I AM an idiot. But there is one thing I know. If I turn off my computer monitor while porn is downloading, my electric bill is smaller. I´d pay even less for electricity if I turned off the sound while I watched, but let´s be reasonable. Apparently the government thinks there are some bigger idiots than me, because we (you and me) need to be taught a lesson in economics.
"Dr. Chu said he didn’t think average folks had the know-how or will to change their behavior enough to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.
“The American public…just like your teenage kids, aren’t acting in a way that they should act” - U.S. Energy Secretary WSJ
Doctor, here´s a free lesson for you. In a democracy, when the people don´t have the will to change behavior, it isn´t the government´s responsibility to change it for them.
Whenever the government says you don´t have the know-how, its time to bend over, lube up and grab hold of something solid, because the "instructional" tax is coming. But rest assured, Chu says Americans don´t have the stomach to protest his ideas as much as they protested his boss´s health care ideas.
Republican and honored protector of family values and ethics, Michael "Hanky Spanky" Duvall, announced his sexual escapades into a live microphone.
"Duvall was heard telling one colleague: ´So, I am getting into spanking her. Yeah, I like it. I like spanking her. She goes, ´I know you like spanking me.´ I said, ´Yeah! Because you´re such a bad girl!´´.
Married with two grown children, Duvall has been heralded for voting "...time and time again to protect and preserve family values in California", according to the Capitol Resource Institute.
The two-term assemblyman was also honored back in 2000 with the "Ethics in America Award" from Chapman University for demonstrating "...the highest standards of ethical integrity". - Daily Mail
It´s not just that Duvall is ass slappin´ some hot piece of tail that isn´t his wife. That´s normal for right wing, family value, holier-than-thou types. Duvall took it to the next level of ethics by choosing to bang a lobbyist from an energy company. The honorable assemblyman vice-chairs the Utility & Commerce Committee. In other words he awards contracts to energy companies. As shocking as this may sound, it seems that both politicians AND lobbyists are whores.
