Behavior Modification

Behavior Modification

Are We Lumberjacks has a great post describing the type of behavior modification we can expect under an Obama administration:

 
So if you didn’t really mind this last run-up in gas prices, if you want them back, and you want them permanent, then by all means, elect this guy.
Earth Days Makes Me… Red!

Earth Days Makes Me… Red!

I hate Earth Day.  For some reason, the Hollywood better-than-yous feel the need to scatter across the country telling me how we’re destroying the planet, all the while living the other 364.2425 days in giant mansions, flying in private jets, and driving Hummers.  Sure, as Christians, we should all be good stewards of the planet, but Earth Day, and the week of “green” nonsense that comes with it, grates more than a Barbra Streisand song.  As a nice antidote, I present to you (with apologies for a touch of coarser content), Louis Black:

So, based on my understanding of the U.N.’s true function, my mind finished that as follows:

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said on Thursday the world is on the cusp of “the age of green economics” and called on nations to cooperate to fight global warming and promote the transferring US wealth to anyone but the filthy, evil Americans.

Of course, that’s not what the article said, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it meant…

The source of one my biggest annoyances is environmentalists, with their de facto commander-in-chief, Saint Al Gore.  Understand that I’m all for being a good steward of the God’s good earth, but these people are beyond the pale.  Which brings me to this article (not to mention a nice sentence fragment).  You should read the whole article, but here are some highlights:
