I wonder why the United Nations, Al Gore, and the rest of the anthropogenic global warming folks have been so quiet about their latest conference. Usually, I am pretty much up on this kind of stuff before it happens, as are a few other bloggers, but this one blew right by me
The latest round of international climate talks is under way in Bonn, Germany, as environmentalists warn that the United Nations predictions for a warmer world are too conservative. (snip)
Also to be considered, according to the Associated Press, is a carbon tax on airline tickets. With 2,400 participants from 172 countries and eight more meetings yet to take place (the next in Accra, Ghana), the delegates certainly have a large carbon footprint from all that air travel.
Well, Bonn is not as good an exotic vacation spot as Bali, but, maybe all the attendees can play Spy vs. Spy. Of course, most of them will probably want to be the Soviet secret agent rather then the American one.
Anyhow, seeing as how they are putting out massive amounts of CO2, the gas they blame all global warming on, it is no wonder they kept this one on the QT.
You are using the “chickenhawk” argument on the global climate changers. I thought that using the “chickenhawk” argument was a no-no.
If Gore, (whose own old house has now been totally refitted “green”) has a bigger carbon footprint than me I don’t hold it against him All should do some, no one is expected do all. I believe the conference will reduce the sum total of greenhouse gases. I am sure that McCain also feels this way.
For two years in a row now the National Hurricane Center has had to downgrade the number of anticipated storms in all categories. But I just heard on the MSM as this year’s season started that another HORRIFIC YEAR was forcast ! ! !
Yes, Chicken Little, you can call the UN. You can also inform the UN that they can take their Carbon tax and put it where the sun doesn’t shine!
Come on, thousands of America haters working at the U.N. are after only one thing. The dollars out of your pocket. Half of the third world critters don’t even know what you’re talking about and don’t give a sh**, but the sure know the value of a stolen dollar.
The democrats will succeed in letting the U.N. tax the American citizens and they don’t have the brains to know the tax will apply to them also.
Anyone who owns a business/company that can be moved should get it (at least the financial part) out of the U.S. in the next six months.
“Yellow coat liberals taste like chicken! Yellow is their true color: chickens and bananas…. mello yellow!!” – Mufasa Lion King 2008
Teach, liberals are NEVER wrong. When things go truthfully sour, they hibernate, law low, crawl into a dark cave, or under a fat rock. They blame OTHERS and make … things up, like revisionist US history or even try
to distort or re-write US history. Some wackos even take…polls, or go to fortune tellers or California psychics!
For those who can’t seem to get their mind around the carbon hoax……….I can help you but, first you take these magic beans and go see Jack. He’ll sort you out on your next mission and highness!
If fear and paranoia from the trace acid coursing through your veins prevents you from locating your nearest evac pod, dial 119 and belly soon a Japanese operator will be on the line, to guide your dumb ass to the last lemming siting. Don’t worry, clearly you’re not afraid of highs!
Why is that a chicken hawk argument, John? These are people who specifically are telling us how to live our lives, yet they themselves don’t.
You are right, Maggie Mama, and it will be interesting to see how many stories the MSM runs at the end of the season of it turns out to be a dud.
Got that right on the nose, Scrapiron. And Obama’s Global Poverty Act will help the UN do that.
I cannot ever remember seeing a Liberal saying they were wrong, Darth, as you said. When a group has no morals or ethics, no guiding principles, they can change their position to match never being wrong.
FH, it is funny how all the climahysterics try and foment the fear and paranoia, yet, very few of them actually ever do something, eh?
I find it amusing that the same people who whine about the right using scare tactics on people with regards to national security (the imminent terrorist attack on US targets), but yet they are the same ones who are predicting doom and gloom about the possibility of a hurricane wiping out the eastern seaboard. And then they want to be taken seriously and get bent out of shape when you question them on it.
By the by, good to *see* again you Scrappy!……and William, these anti-spam words crack me up man!
