How, exactly, does buying 'carbon credits' reduce pollution? It's interesting that leftists support a scheme which lets the wealthy to skate all responsibilty by buying what are essentially indulgences. For life of me I don't understand how the liberal house of cards survives all these inconsistencies and double standards.

And it's really sad that they have influenced kids out there to ride bicycles thinking they're going to help polar bears from drowning.

The liberals would have a real hard time if people could pay someone else to take their place or their kid's place in the Army if there was a draft.

But pollution and global warming, sign them up and be proud of it!

Where's that shared sense of duty that they feel towards military service? Shouldn't they share in the pain of this too?
