Green House Gas Calculator tells you when you should die for the planet

Saturday, June 7th, 2008

I officially know MMGW has had it. It has worn out its welcome. The only good thing about global warmmongers is that they have no sense of perspective so they keep turning the dial up. Yours go to 11? Theirs goes to eleventy ‘leven. When you have websites telling children when they should die they really can not pull out the stops any more. They have already pulled them out. die-you-capitalist-pig.JPG Do not worry children….I wouldn’t trust that calculator too much. It looks like the professor is a dog. You should only die if you actually are stupid enough to believe in global warming. If you are that stupid you will eventually stick a fork in your frontal lobes while eating stir fried tofu. Global warming is just a liberal profit center. No not a center like where you liberals go to pick up your welfare checks. A profit center as in a capitalist enterprise in a particular area of focus.

Oil Marketplace distortions only seem to occur when the market is distorted

Sounds like a dumb title right? Maybe not so dumb. Read the following excerpt from Robert X. Cringleys column of 2004: During the summer of 1973 I worked on a tow boat on the Mississippi River. Every 10 to 14 days, we’d load our barges on the Gulf Coast and deliver petroleum products to some place in the Midwest. That was the summer of the big gasoline shortages. As we would travel up and down the Mississippi, we’d pass an Exxon tow. It would have eight barges (a double unit) fully loaded, or about 10 million gallons of gasoline. The tow wouldn’t be moving, it would be tied up in a quiet spot on the river. Each trip we find more tows tied up. Shell, Texaco, Exxon, Amoco were all doing it. One day they announced in the news how much gasoline would be used in the USA in a single day. I made some quick calculations and realized we had passed a month’s supply on our last trip. It is tempting to do the loud French UH-HUH when you read this but think again. In times when oil is cheap-ish like the entire 1990s did any of this go on? Well if it did it sure did not affect the price! However during the 90s Mr Bill Clinton blocked drilling in ANWR among other places. Its only when market instabilities and shortages drive the price up rapidly that you get this river floating arbitrage of gasoline. The simple fact WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES are responsible for this type of arbitrage. If we are going to be silly little girls about drilling for oil in the USA then we need to be man enough to accept and pay the bill when it comes due. baby_crying_over-spilt-oil.jpg The fact is we are acting with all the maturity of a child holding his breath till he turns purple when we refuse to allow drilling. Oil drilling is a very clean process by an large. And if some escapes let me assure you that the bacteria love its energy rich content and eat it right up. Thus any perceived pollution is more in the eye of the beholder than it is in the actual environment. So grow up already! … But I know you will not. You want to elect a leftist in Barrack Obama. We have been through all this before. When the 60s ended there were gas shortages. Leftists including Nixon tried price controls and regulation. What did that get us? Stagflation. Ok so I will just watch you suffer until you cry uncle and for congress to allow more oil drilling. See ya then! ( and I will be laughing at you…not with you ) It all ended when Reagan deregulated.  Just like we need right now. To say this is Deja vu redundancy and saying things over again that we have already seen.
