"Tipper can watch Al give a speech on a widescreen plasma TV, where Al looks almost as wide as in life. . .

Steyn is quite amusing this morning.

I sure want the FTC and attorneys general fo shut down this carbon offset nonsense. Put Gore in jail with the other clintonistas.

He has a carbon-offset trader in an environmentally friendly carbon-credits office suite who buys "carbon offsets" for Al from, say, a terrorist mastermind in a cave in the Pakistani tribal lands who's dramatically reduced his energy usage mainly because every time he powers up his cell phone or laptop a light goes on in Washington and an unmanned drone starts heading his way.

ROFL.

And how do you like the fact that Al is buying those carbon credits and paying his own company? We should all share this with our e-mail list friends and make sure everyone understands -- we're being scammed. Big time.

When I first glanced at the headline, I was expecting a barf alert, but then I saw it was by Mark Steyn. Brilliant, as usual.

Next thing you know, the liberals will be selling "murder offsets." Jack will murder Jill and buy a murder offset so that Jan will refrain from murdering Dan. Thus we have net zero murder.

"So Al can buy his carbon offsets from himself. Better yet, he can buy them with the money he gets from his long-time relationship with Occidental Petroleum. See how easy it is to be carbon-neutral? All you have do is own a gazillion stocks in Big Oil, start an eco-stockbroking firm to make eco-friendly investments, use a small portion of your oil company's profits to buy some tax-deductible carbon offsets from your own investment firm, and you too can save the planet while making money and leaving a carbon footprint roughly the size of Godzilla's at the start of the movie when they're all standing around in the little toe wondering what the strange depression in the landscape is."

This freak has no shame.

This is possibly the biggest scam I've ever heard of. The Clintons are not half as smart as this guy.

"So even the stars' offsets are offset. No wonder that, when they're off the set, they all do the offset."

LOL. Brilliant.
