This is jus too funny...at first i thought it was from the onion

So, in other words, Global Warming is the environmentalists' fault?*

*just for the sake of argument, let's stipulate that environmentalists used to do real good, before they were infiltrated by leftovers from the collapse of communism.

Thats ok I just bought a brand new gas guzzling luxury car. I am doing all I can!!!

El Rushbo read something like about a month or two ago. These enviro-whackos should give up on the Global Warming scare tactics and just go back to simple clean air and no littering arguments that everyone agrees on.

All results, no matter how unexpected or seemingly contradictory, confirm the global warming theory, making it the single most correct theory in the history of thought.

Yes, the old SO2 Screw... If you reduce fossil fuel emissions, you reduce both CO2 and SO2. CO2 stays in the air for centuries, SO2 only a little bit. Reductions in emissions, as in Kyoto, actually would actually cause massive short term warming, perhaps even triggering those pesky positive feedbacks.

Hey kids, it's time for: Pick and Choose which economy/industry you want to shut down. Let's have our first defendant step up and spin the Pick and Choose Wheel!

"The researchers argue that this trend, commonly called 'global dimming', reversed more than a decade ago, probably following the collapse of communist economies and the consequent decrease in industrial pollutants"

cleaner air? Thanks one more time President Reagan

BAN CLEAN AIR

Before it's too late!

The stats on global temps declined up till the late 70's (when they were talking about a new ice age), then started to go up. I always thought it was the greenies that forced clean air legislation that did it.

The environmentalists caused global warming. It's offical.

"Choose...and spin!" -- Peggy Hill

[JIM O]

Ken Lay can use this as his defense. He wanted to grow and pollute thereby saving the environment.

[glock rocks]

Spin the Choice.

PEGGY (describing "Spin the Choice"): Well, the game is pretty straightforward. You can choose to spin or you can choose to choose. If you choose to spin, you can land on spin, or choice, or lose a spin, or lose a choice, or free spin, or free choice, or spin again.
