It’s, it’s, oh yea, it’s STONE AGE.

South Park Episode “Margaretaville” shows us the way... we must wear bedsheets instead of clothes and ride llamas instead of cars!

Would be better stated as:

REP. WAXMAN TO PROPOSE U.S. STANDARD OF LIVING CUTS OF 20 PCT FROM 2005 LEVEL BY 2020, 42 PCT BY 2030, 83 PCT BY 2050 -SOURCE

But that would require truthful reporting...

How about we get someone in Congress to propose a TAX!

A TAX on NEWSPRINT!

Whereas the production of newspapers causes trees to be cut down, hauled by polluting trucks to polluting paper mills, and hauled from paper mills to publishers and

Whereas the production of newspapers requires toxic ink and solvents and energy wasting machinery and

Whereas the distribution of newspapers requires the use of dirty internal combustion engines and

Whereas a large portion of every landfill is used for discarded newspapers,

Therefore:

Be it resolved that a Newsprint tax, of $1,000.00 per pound, be charged to EVERY newspaper with a daily subscription, within the United States!
________________________________________
We should get some Republican to propose THIS as an amendment to any “cap and trade” or “carbon tax” proposal that comes up!
Maybe we can make it like “Cap and Trade” and use the revenue generated, from this tax on dirty dinosaur newspapers, to subsidize a tax credit for home computers and digital devices?
Or, we could use the money to subsidize talk radio! Well, those guys really don’t need any help!

I am thinking about writing a book, called “Rebellion”
The theme of the book will be civil disobedience, aimed at the Marxist environmentalists.
I want to open the book with the protest being acted out, in one city, but the book will make clear that the protest is being repeated in every single State, in as many cities as possible.
A tire will be placed in a container and soaked with kerosene. Then, a match will be thrown into the container. This will, of course, cause smoke that will be seen for miles. The use of the trash can or container will be for purposes of safety, it will not be the intent of any protester to cause any danger to life or property.
The “signal” of course, will be seen for miles and miles.
As people notice, and emergency vehicles respond, fliers will be passed out, which state the obvious falsehoods of the “global warming” hoax.
A United States Flag will be flying upside down, in distress mode, close to the burning tire.
In hundreds of cities, in all 50 states, hundreds or even thousands of people repeat this act of civil disobedience, simultaneously. Volunteers will pass out fliers with the pertinent political justifications.
In some cases, nobody will be arrested. In some cases, the authorities will realize that we are setting them up for a court battle that they do not want.
However, in those cities where an arrest is made, we swing into LEGAL action:
This is “Free Speech” which you have upheld, at the United States Supreme Court, where a United States Flag was involved. In this case, we did not burn the flag, we burned an old, useless car tire, in order to draw attention to our upside down flag. The United States Flag, in distress mode, was an integral part of our protest.
The use of the car tire was deliberate, as this protest, itself, is against the tyranny of the environmental movement, its lies and its power hungry grab for power.
Our protest is a protest you do not have to agree with, but our protest is one that the United States Supreme Court MUST uphold! After all, if it is a “Constitutional Right” to burn the flag, it is entirely conceivable that someone could burn thousands upon thousands of flags, at the same time, and STILL be protected by the Supreme Court of the United States, is it not? (Even if those flags, collectively, would produce as much smoke and CO2 as a burning tire!)
And, we will also remind the liberals, in this book, that they have limited our rights to free speech and dissent, through the “fairness doctrine” or clones there of.
In each city, all across the country, the person who handles the car tire, the gasoline and the matches will agree, ahead of time, to go all the way to the Supreme Court, if needed, to assert our Free Speech protections.
Smoke signals have been around for centuries.
Smoke is all they have left us!
The purpose of the smoke signal was to make a political statement and to generate a crowd.
How best to protest against the EPA than to make smoke?
And, once we get the Courts to understand that we have free speech rights, to burn tires, just like the flag burners have free speech rights, to burn flags, we let the liberals know:
We will burn tires, in every city of the country, until they back off on any carbon tax!

Anyone who’s every traveled knows we have the cleanest air in the industrialized world. We don’t need to doing ANYTHING green. Ever.
