It's even worse than I thought.  Those carbon credits the lefties buy and give as gifts?  They really did make them in their basements.  Well, not quite, but it seems that Al Gore is a major stockholder (owner, even?) in the company from which he buys his.  So he's buying them from himself.  That's just the first step.

For me to compete with Al, I'd have to manufacture carbon credits in my basement, sell them to other unsuspecting dupes, make propaganda films excoriating anyone who wasn't a customer, get lots of attention from Hollywood and the rest of the media, tell the world that buying my product was a moral imperitive and lobby governments all over the world to create an artificial shortage of what I'm selling so as to make it illegal, as well as immoral for anyone not to give me money. 

This 'global warming' campaign has nothing to do with an imaginary climate crisis.  Al Gore knows it.  If he thought for an instant that his own rhetoric were true, he wouldn't live the way he does.  This is about power.  This is about money.

The Left has been convincing it's followers for years that it's the opposition that's all about money.   But as far as I can tell, this is the first time in history that a political movement has been based not only on gaining money and power for the leaders of the movement, but that purposely designed global economic ruin into it's long term plans.  It's not enough that Al and his buddies get richer, they want the rest of us to be poorer!  All my life I've heard these liberals claim that conservatives get rich by stealing from the poor.  Willie Sutton could tell you that ain't where the money is.  Until now.  The poor have plenty of carbon emissions.  Al&company have finally figured out a way to get rich while impoverishing the rest of us; steal our energy.

This makes Al and his cronies  worse than Bolshevics or the Khmer Rouge.  So the Stalinists killed twenty million Russians?  The killing fields of Cambodia claimed three million?  Those numbers are miniscule compared to what these global warming ghouls plan for the rest of us.  What do you think thirty five years of 'choice' has prepared us for? 

This is not a leap, it's a logical progression.  Less energy means less of everything.  Less food, less heat, less medicine.  When we no longer have the power to feed and house the world, what do you think will happen to the smallest, oldest and weakest of us?  It's already started.  My Dad travelled all over the world while I was growing up.  He will probably never leave this country again.  He knows that if he should have an accident or get sick in Canada, or Europe, even as civilized a country as the U.K., the Lands of Socialized medicine will not waste their precious resources on an 80 year old man, no matter how vigorous and brilliant.  You think Teri Schiavo was an aberration?  Give Al&co their way and soon the question won't be 'choice' or 'quality of life' but 'useless emittors'.  They wouldn't be so obvious as to say 'useless eaters', would they?  Then again, why not? We stopped teaching history in the schools two generations ago.

Think it can't happen?   It's happened, over and over throughout history.  Only the scale of this plot is new.

I know.  I sound like I'm writing the Wachowski brothers next movie. 
This is what happens to me when I give up chocolate. 
Have a nice weekend.
