Planet good! Lights bad!

Wanna bet how many Liberals will turn-off their lights but keep their 70-inch TVs, A/C, and computers running?

I will make sure that everything I own that consumes electricity will be running full-bore at that hour on the 31st.

Screw the left.

I don't suppose it would do any good to point out the irony in turning off your lights for a hour and firing up your computers for 3-4 hours just to brag about it.

Understand that the liberals’ goal is really NOT saving the planet,

but to feel good about themselves as a “good person”,
affirming the lie that they are righteous because of what they advocate and do.

There's hidden energy cost to everything - highly correlated with what a person makes - and how much they spend. Just because an elite liberal doesn't see the energy that goes into a gold chain, doesn't mean it's not happening. Same with printing a liberal magazine, publishing a newspaper, etc. Energy isn't just ‘light bulbs’...

I am going to turn on all my lights, watch TV, freep on the computer, blow dry my hair and let my Tahoe idle in the driveway all day.

I want all who follow this stupid idea to give me their telephone numbers so I can call them about buying gold from me. All of my suckers....I mean clients are happy they receive their gold in 10 days or less.

If they buy now, they will receive a storage vault to store the gold in.

......disclaimer........
We ship gold that is in stock in 10 days or less. Get it? In stock.....................................Suckers.

A local radio talker speaks of the “dark people”. Has nothing to do with skin color. People who want to see the stars in the city center.

That would be perceived and responded to as a personal attack, because of my above explanation. When you point out the fallacy of the things that sheeperals advocate and do to affirm their "good personhood", then you are attacking their "good personhood". It matters not what issue is involved.

What would really save the planet is that all the Greenies inhale and hold their breath for say, 20 minutes or so.......

Ha ha...we’ve been doing this ever since they started Earth day. Every year we think of something else to do. Last year I started the cars too.
