Heh heh. Mr. Do As I Say Not As I Do has some humorous “advice” for federal workers (via Planet Gore)
President Barack Obama wants federal workers to cut down on business travel and commuting by car as he seeks to reduce heat-trapping emissions produced by the federal government.
The White House was announcing Tuesday that the government will aim to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions from indirect sources like employee driving by 13 percent in 2020, compared with 2008 levels.
Earlier this year Obama directed agencies to reduce pollution from direct sources, such as buildings and government fleets, by 28 percent in the next decade.
The federal government is the largest energy consumer in the U.S. economy, and the combined reductions would be the equivalent of removing emissions from 235 million barrels of oil, the White House said.
Employee travel and commuting account for the biggest category of what the White House calls indirect sources of pollution, so the main way to limit them will be encouraging employees to travel less for business and to use mass transit for their commutes. Other sources of indirect pollution are waste disposal and energy that is lost through inefficient electricity transmission.
As Greg Pollowitz points out, it was a balmy 90-something degrees Tuesday, so, hey, libs, since so many of you are federal employees, hop on your bikes to Save The Planet. And crank that AC up to 80 or so in your federal workplace. I’m sure Obama will walk over to the Ronald Reagan Building to sign the finance reform bill, right? It’s only a few blocks from the White House. Or, maybe he will slap on the Mom jeans and bike over (yeah, low blow). Though, I’m sure the AC was set to 80 for Broadway Night at the WH, and the performers took the bus or the subway from their hotels, right? (To be honest, I like taking the bus and subway when in DC. Less hassle)
Crossed at Right Wing News and Stop The ACLU
Buried somewhere in this story as reported elsewhere is that the directive encourages “telecommuting”. Gee, I’ll bet having the lefties working from home (or the corner wine-bar) will lead to all sorts of FOIA violations.
Broadway Night had a very high proportion of JEWS in attendance and honorees. Teach why do you so hate these people who are on of the bases of the modern Democratic Party ?
Obama wants to reduce the miles that Federal workers drive. Apparently Teach thinks that this is wrong, after all Obama is for it.
And Teach why is it any concern of yours wheter he wear’s “mom jeans” ? Does this sexual ambiguity confuse you ?
Hey, Teach! Why don’t you report on the results of the investigations into the actions of scientists at East Anglia?

Hey, Reasic, why don’t you comment on Obama’s blatant hypocrisy?
I see reasic / bunny is happy about the whitewash on East Anglia.
Say, ‘lil LIAR johnnie ryan, what’s your obsession with Jews, anyway? That ‘Petraeus sez the JOOOOOOZ!’ meme still not working for you?
“I see reasic / bunny is happy about the whitewash on East Anglia”
That’s funny, I didn’t comment on this piece. Squatter’s ignorance on display again. What a jackass.
What is this “reasic/bunny” stuff? I agree with Bunny. Let’s put it to rest, Teach. Please tell him that our IPs or emails or whatever info you have on us are different. I don’t know where Bunny is, but mine should show up in Alabama. Otter, you are showing signs and symptoms of the Glenn Beck symdrome. Everything is a freaking conspiracy. Global warming is a hoax, which involves nearly all of the world’s climate scientists and scientific bodies. Even the “independent” investigators charged with looking into the East Anglia non-incident are into it.
And now, Reasic, John Ryan, and Bunny, must be the same person! Geez, where does it stop?! The whole world’s against you, Otter! RUN!!!
lol.
I guess when one has no facts in his corner, conpiracies and fallacies are the only tools left with which to “debate”. That must be why Glenn Beck continually resorts to straw man and slippery slope fallacies. Hmmmm….
first time I’ve ever seen bunny / reasic posting both sides of his / her personality at the same time. What, are the meds working intermittently?
First time I’ve seen Squatter post something even remotely funny. However, as I have told you time and time again, just ask Screech if we are the same person. Don’t you think he’d call me (or Reasic) out if one of us was attempting to post under two names? I mean, Screech tried to make a false claim about China’s economy and I busted him on it. He hasn’t said shit about China since. Don’t you think he’d jump at the chance to expose me (or Reasic)?
How do I know that Squatter and GC are not the same person? They are equally ignorant and unoriginal. Or even Trish? I wouldn’t put it past Squatter/GC to pretend that he’s a woman. Perhaps he’d/she’d like to be Screech’s first date in the past 20 years.
