Meanwhile, trees and other green things are getting happier as CO2 continues to go up even though global temperatures stopped going up ten years ago.

    Bring it on. What does the word ‘green’ actually mean anymore now that enviro-nitwits have bastardized the term? Does it mean starving the third world to grow negative energy balance corn bio-fuel for rich guilt ridden eco-elitists? Does it include suddenly limiting US energy in order to kowtow to a theory of AGW, one originally from the radical left wing nuke freeze-nics, one supported by ZERO scientific evidence and contradicted by BAZILLIONS of scientific FACTS, thus forcing the USA to become a second rate nation less able to offer any help to the 3rd world where MOST of the REAL ecological damage actually happens like cutting down rain forests, poisoning rivers with heavy metals, choking the air with sulphur and who knows what else – doing things that RICH nations can afford to cure?

    Limiting CO2 has NOTHING to do with the word ‘green’ – NOTHING. Plants do BETTER with more CO2 and they are the green things. The less than 400PPM concentration of CO2 right now is at an historic LOW point in earth’s long history matched by only one other ‘brief’ period about 300 million years ago.

    Here, take this test. Let us know how you scored –

    McCain is too dumb and is deaf to the voices of America to be in any position of power. And none of the other candidates are any better. 3 total losers..(5 if you throw Barr and Paul in the mix) are what we get to choose from.

    Another trophy Michelle.

    There are people deciding to get fixed in order to prevent procreating. There is even an organization trying to “educate” women on the benefits for the planet of not having children.

    So, why is it such a stretch? I mean, abortion is supposed to be “to save a womans life” but it has become a “choice”.

    McCain and his eco-crusaders

    The eco-wacko’s are the problem. McCain joined them (and I am afraid Bush did as well). Micelle just connected the dots.

    As I stated before, there are eco-wacko groups who believe we need to reduce the population to save the planet. Will McCain join these nuts too?

    No, I think Michelle is onto something.

    The first “commandment” of the new world order is to reduce the population to below 1/2 billion people. Loking for the link and will come up with it if you need it. Jaques Cousteau was one that supported this as well.

    Not trying to make them equivolent, but this reminded me of a passage in Jonah Goldberg’s latest book, “Liberal Fascism”. In writing about the Che Guevera-chic phenomenon and general liberal swooning over tyrants and genocidal monsters, Goldberg remarks something along the lines of “you wouldn’t dress your infant in a Mussolini onsie or give your toddler a Himmler sippy cup, would you?”

    The actual product in the McCain store

    Did anyone actually look at this item in the McCain store? The words ‘organic’ or ‘green’ don’t appear. In fact, the entire description reads “McCain Onesie.”

    Now (to correct Michelle’s error) the real product you’re critiquing is this one: The real go green onesie.. Go Green? Green lettering? Get it? You should at least focus your outrage properly, otherwise you’ll damage your chi and stuff.

    At least all of McCain’s stuff does read ‘Made in the USA’ so he has that going for him.

    Of course you ‘conservatives’ are opposed to using anything grown and made in the US, right? Of course you ‘conservatives’ want to wrap your babies in cloth made by huge conglomerates and tainted with who knows how many chemicals, right? No wonder so many of you are retards.

    And for those of you who equate environmentalism with leftists, you have no sense of history. Possibly the greatest conservationist of the 20th century was the REPUBLICAN Teddy Roosevelt. He was a true conservative and understood we only have one Earth and it’s worth preserving.

    Now .. go carry on … drive your SUV around the block a few times and toss your McDonalds cheeseburger wrappers out the window to show how anti-green you are. We’re all proud of your intentional pollution.

    Strangelove,

    I just finished the book “River of Doubt” about T. Roosevelt’s nearly fatal expedition in South America- Very interesting and well-written. To address your comment, not all conservatives are polluters and many, such as myself are in favor of realistic conservation- but not ineffective, pc nonsense that does nothing to really help except weaken our economic potential while turning a blind eye to the worst of the actual offenders (Mexico, China, ..hello?).
    It’s easy to be a warrior when you are hiding behind the protection of our culture in the US. Do you really care enough to risk your life and freedom? I doubt it.

    I also wonder about liberals who think evolution is gospel. By that thinking, polar bears should learn to adapt or else become extinct. That is evolution in action- propping them up artificially is counter to natures way. If don’t believe me, ask the DoDo.

    Jus’ saying is all.

    I put my recycling out this morning. McLame’s pander to younger voters will not work, and young conservatives like myself are left to wonder why I should vote for someone who sounds just like the liberal party line (AGW, illegal immigration, etc). AGW is the biggest scientific fraud ever conceived and yet Bush and McLame are jumping off the bridge for it.

    Typical liberal subterfuge. SUV’s and litter are two separate things. I don’t like litter; I call the police all the time to try to catch people who dump their old TV’s, air conditioners, car batteries, etc. behind my shop.(Waddaya wanna bet they’re low life on perpetual welfare who vote straight democrat for the handouts? My money bought their stuff so of course they think I should have to pay to dispose of it as well!)

    1) You didn’t address anything I wrote previously. 2)Prove how SUV’s “hurt the planet”. Get back when you have an answer and not before. BTW, did you take that test yet? It’s based on peer reviewed scientific FACTS – what you people miserably lack. For your convenience here is the link again – http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/GlobWarmTest/start.html

One of the newer items before I left was a collection of “organic cotton” blanket and gown/bib/cap coordinates. They were about twice a much as the ordinary blankets and gown sets. I can sorta understand wanting organic fruits, veggies, meat & dairy, but COTTON?? You’re WEARING it, not EATING it!
