The Carbon Offset Scam has to be America's version of the UN's Food for Peace plan under $adamn to enrich the Goron and other green elite limo lib eviros.

Does an ex-politician like Al Gore, as he flies around the world doing his PowerPoint show, collecting his Oscar for An Inconvenient Truth, lapping up praise from an uncritical media and kidding about whether he'll run for president, strike you as someone who truly believes we're facing Armageddon?

"People like Al Gore jet about the earth, living from mansion to mansion and say that they want to drastically lower the living standards for most people on the earth. Then, the so called peoples's people, who talk about "eqality" the most, think this is just fine."

In my semi-troll personality over on DU, perhaps I should get on one of these carbon offset topics, and ask how much money I have to give to the United Negro College Fund in order to be able to make a racist joke?

Think they'd be amused? Ok, then how about asking how much money I'd have to give to Emily's List in order to offset one anti-abortion bumper sticker on my car?
