SDA Flashback – Jack Layton’s bear drownin’ Evenrude e-tech 90 2-stroke….
Is anyone offering them a snorkeling experience where they can hand-feed sharks?
I would offer it for free.
I’d go for the Double Six nightclub myself, but the idea of hanging out with some fraction of the UNFCCC’s 10,000 delegates while they’re all gassed on carbon neutral organic light beer and gabbling about Jack Layton’s polar bear slide show isn’t my idea of a party, even on a slow Tuesday night.
But,but,but. They are saving the planet!!! C’mon guys/gals.Let’s all support them and send them our carbon credits so that they can continue on this monumental task of saving us all from ourselves!!! Phfffttttt..twits.
@John West:
Right near the friendly-bear compound…
I’d pitch in a few bucks to put them all on a enormous yacht, sail it to antarctica where it promptly collides with an iceberg, and sinks.
Of course, I’d like them all to survive by swimming to said iceberg. Maybe they could do some core samples while they are there, save a few penguins, or surmise whether the iceberg that sunk and then saved them exists because it broke off due to warming or grew out due to cooling.
You know, it just occurred to me that being on the iceberg in my previous post would probably be the closest thing to field experience that any of these delegates would ever experience.
Really, it’s good for them, good for me, good for the penguins!
Let’s do it then!
The irony of it all. Two summers ago, one of my cottage neighbors(she has hated me since I worked on Mike Harris’ first campaign)berated me for owning a ski boat. I might get to use the thing for 14-18 hours a season(kid’s water skiing is the only time we use it)and as I tried to reason with her, she launched a tirade of insults at me. I have saved every one of these screen shots highlighting the ironic idiocy of her retarded heroes blowing my carbon footprint out of the water(pun intended).
Next year’s cottage opening is going to be most gratifying.
MOONBAT RETARDS!
BTW, I have a brother with down’s, so please spare me any criticism for using the word “retard”. My family has done more than most to advance the cause of the mentally handicapped in this province.
I think it’s funny that they are holding their conference in Bali, but they are always saying it will be terrible if places like Canada and Russia heat up a little.
That yacht is probably smaller then they are used to, so traveling on it likely generates some carbon credits.
Well, the optics would hardly be good for a Global Warming yak fest in most parts of Canada right now.
They’re going to a place that is always warm so maybe Global warming will cool it down, if it can change the cold climates why can’t it mess with the tropics as well?
They better be warned about Dion’s arrival, he’ll have quite a head of steam with nowhere to blow it.
With such a large conference he’ll be more like a speck of fly shit. Is he being sponsored by the LPC?
good summary

Will the U.N. Conference on Climate Change (UNFCCC) [COP 13/MOP 3, Bali, Indonesia, December 3-14] follow the now well-established pattern of manic-depression that has characterised nearly all such previous mass meetings, including those in The Hague (2000), in Marrakesh, Morocco (2001), in Edinburgh around the G8 Summit (2005), in Montreal (2005), and in Nairobi, Kenya (2006)?
First, key figures will work hard, through the media, to try to lower public expectations – e.g., “This is only about producing a ‘road map’, or timetable, for future negotiations”; “It is just about putting a process in motion rather than taking any substantive decisions.”
Then, for the first few days of the Conference nothing much obvious will happen, and there is little for the hordes of environmental reporters to report. Things only start to get ‘hot’ when governments finally let loose their senior figures to ‘finalise’ the key issues during the last three days [for example, the UK will be sending three gunboats to Bali, namely HMS Hilary Benn, the Environment Secretary, his junior minister, HMS Phil Woolas, and jolly old HMS Sir Nicholas Stern (“For it is he!”)].
Then, if things go to plan, the ‘meeting’ will be reported as “slow and difficult”, or even “failing” (as, classically, at Montreal in 2005), with participants walking out, or raising “impossible” issues. “Why do the developing countries keep on insisting that we should carry all the burden and pay for everything?” Ultimately, the ‘meeting’ then extends into the early hours of the morning after the day on which it is meant to have closed, the chair and host nation using every trick in the moral-blackmail book to achieve something for the record and for home consumption.
Finally, a relatively bland agreement is cobbled together at the very last minute. Thousands of participants and journalists emerge from their fierce-small-world euphoric, tears are shed, and the “success” of the meeting is over-hyped and over-spun – “The world can breathe again!”; “We are saved!”; “Real progress has been made!”
Eventually, in the cold light of day, euphoria turns quite quickly to angst and to bitterness as it becomes increasingly obvious that little-to-nothing has really been achieved and that nobody will act on what has been agreed in any case.
The euphoric high is inexorably followed by a long depression – until, that is, the next migration and Conference of 15,000 souls [COP 14, by the way, will be in Poznań, Poland, from 1-12 December, 2008. Just thought you would like to know].
Medical Symptoms?
If you examine carefully the symptoms exhibited during and after these repeated ‘meeting patterns’, while analysing in detail the changing media language involved, it becomes obvious that ‘global warming’ hype is leading to clinically-identifiable symptoms closely associated with those presented in ‘mass psychogenic illness’, or ‘mass sociogenic illness’.
The following two medical papers explain these syndromes, with detailed examples: (a) ‘Mass psychogenic illness: role of the individual physician’ [American Family Physician (2000) 62: 2649-53,2655-6], and (b) ‘Mass psychogenic illness: a case report and overview’ [Psychiatric Times, April 2000, XVII, 4]. Here is a key passage from (a):
“Mass psychogenic illness is characterized by symptoms, occurring among a group of persons with shared beliefs regarding those symptoms, that suggest organic illness but have no identifiable environmental cause and little clinical or laboratory evidence of disease. Mass psychogenic illness typically affects adolescents or children, groups under stress and females disproportionately more than males. Symptoms often follow an environmental trigger or illness in an index case. They can spread rapidly by apparent visual transmission, may be aggravated by a prominent emergency or media response, and frequently resolve after patients are separated from each other and removed from the environment in which the outbreak began. Physicians should consider this diagnosis when faced with a cluster of unexplained acute illness.”
Fascinatingly, such mass hysteria can spread rapidly to those who are distant from any original ‘event’; in such cases, the response is known as ‘mass hysteria by proxy’. One outbreak of ‘mass hysteria by proxy’, for example, has been documented, in which anxiety transmitted among parents led to reports of serious symptoms in students.
‘Global warming’ hysteria appears to be a classic example of ‘mass psychogenic illness’, which is triggered and fed by the regular world meetings mentioned above, but which is then transmitted globally through a 24-hour media and Green pressure groups as ‘mass hysteria by proxy’.
This is hardly surprising, as taking the temperature of the Earth every second of every day, and then reporting it uncritically and apocalyptically via 24-hour-rolling news, constitutes a perfect trigger for folk with a predisposition to hypochondria, or, in this case, to ecochondria. Manic-depression, or bipolar-disorder, then begins to exhibit itself, both in the individual and in the media.
The truth is, therefore, a serious one: ‘global warming’ hype is bad for your health. Yes, Green hype can be clinically damaging.
And, by the way, the Bali Meeting is COP 13 – hope you aren’t superstitious!
“Chamomile tea, anyone?”
in the Whacko-Jacko vein of save the planet
”
The Tennessean’s own Beverly Keel reported that Mr. Gore was spotted purchasing a Lexus LS 600h, their new hybrid model. According to a New York Times review, Al’s new ride gets a whopping 21 mpg – 1 mpg less than the non-hybrid version. Atta way to save the planet, Al. Maybe there’s an opening for you at the U.N.”
You gotta feel sorry for the locals.
Hybrid, shmrybrid, what a load of garbage. A pseudo envirojerkoff buys a hybrid, and then puts 50k a year on it, and somehow thinks he is saving the planet. What a crew of bona-fide arseholes!
here is the bali climate change blog, looks like a free for all.
http://bali-climate-change-conference.blogspot.com/2007/11/al-gore-finds-new-cause-of-global.html
have Borat Dion and Taliban Jack managed a preChristmas getaway from the “climate changed “Canadian winter?
almost wants you make you change sides if you get trips to Bali. can they handle sending all of us?
“iz not izzy being green, I half my pry whore it tees, hi cannot go to half gan hiss tan as hi miyd be shood.” borat dion
Kyoto is a political actuation plan for taxing CO2 in developd nations while ignoring particulate and GHG emissions in developing nations.
Most of the science community accept that CO2 is highly unlikely to be a climate change driver and is NOT a pollutant
Why are these guys in Bali?
There is a particular irony to the whole “reducing your carbon footprint” situation that rarely gets mentioned.
It is the unwashed knuckledraggers who are really making the greatest reductions. Instead of flying around the planet, we take bus excursions to NYC. Instead of buying a new hybrid, we keep our 2000 Honda Civic running as good as the day it was new. Instead of living in 3, 4000 sq ft homes, we live in 1200-2000 sq ft homes. Instead of having our meat imported from New Zealand, we walk out on our properties and harvest our own. Instead of drinking wine from France, we drink beer from Canada.
I could go on and on, but I think I have made my point.
Fruit fly, goracle, bombardion and the rest of them can take a flying leap. We have done our fair share, and it is time for that crew to do their’s.
They have no credibility, and are all hypocrites!
Is it possible to critique Dion and the enviro-weenies WITHOUT mocking the French language?
I am still at a loss as to why these rich-ass delegates will not leverage the power of web conferencing. Heck, a happy medium might be to have a conference node per continent rather than having delegates travel halfway around the world, and then web conference them together. For the amount of money they spend, they could have a kickin’ live stream.
Cuts into the return on investment for the new Gulf Stream in the parking lot I suppose.
It all boils down to poltical correctness here. Its politically correct for politicians and activists to burn gallons and gallons of fossil fuels so they can go to delegate meetings and rallies, while its politically incorrect for my brother to burn a litre of diesel to clean our driveway of snow with a loader backhoe, or for my dad to burn a litre of gasoline and a gallon or two of diesel fuel to clean up some trees with an aging Cat D8, or for me to drive to college.
I guess its because the “little guy” is not saving the environment by doing day to day activities, while these environmental elitists are by traveling around the world.
Never said better:

Thats why there is no TV in the house. Still read news and listen to the hockey. Really don’t think that a person is missing much from the political agenda that the world goverment has set up. The ordinary person has done more than any reporter, politition, judge, lawyer or any of the rest that is on the band wagon. Merle Underwood
All the delegates should be issued Michael Crichton’s novel State of Fear upon arrival.
Then wait for the tsunami.
Note that the UN is increasing the complexity of its Kyoto scam. There are now two clear parts to the UN scam.
First, there’s the blatant insistence that the West, the industrial nations, finance the industrialization of the rest of the world. Not as loans, not as foreign investment. Nope. Just handing over the money.
This money is called Sin Money, which is a term used to describe ‘Those Who Are Already Industrialized’. These nations are sinners because their wits and brain power have developed the technology, their people worked and slaved to build the factories, railways etc. These nations hand over money to….peoples defined as ‘developing’.
Developing Nations are described as Victims. They haven’t industrialized. The assumption is that it’s the fault of the Sinners. At any rate, the West is supposed to hand over billions – and the Developing Nations can industrialize.
Oh- these newly industrialization nations are exempt from emissions and pollution standards.
They are also exempt from Sin. And Sin Money.
So much for reducing emissions. The only countries at all interested in reducing emissions are the industrial countries of the west.
The only countries interested in reducing pollution are the industrial countries of the West.
The ‘newly developing countries’ are not only exempt from emissions and pollution standards. They are totally, completely, uninterested in either.
Go to India and China. Breathe the air (or try to); check out the pollution, the garbage, the utter indifference to standards.
The other UN scam continues on with the Role Of Victim. Check this out (CTV News)
“Victims of climate change, real and potential, appealed Tuesday for a vast increase in international aid to protect and compensate them for rising seas, crop-killing drought and other likely impacts of global warming.”
I like the differentiation between ‘real’ and ‘potential’. Kindly remember that ‘potential’ doesn’t mean ‘it will necessarily or even probably occur’. It means ‘non-existent’ and ‘who knows if it will ever happen except in the imagination’.
So, this Second UN scam is to get money from the West for ANY problems with the environment. You blame it ALL on ‘global warming’. You blame Global Warming on mankind (AGW), and, you insist that the West, pay you. Here’s another quote:
“We still need more money, from people like America,” she said.”
Ahh, the UN, probably the most corrupt money launderer this planet has ever seen. Bases its scams on emotion, on defining the wealthy as Sinners, and the non-wealthy as Victims of Sinners. There’s something almost medieval about this verbiage and scenario.
Ahem – in any children’s playground, the more people you can have on your side makes you “righter” than the other guy.
This is just an extension of that same philosophy. It doesn’t matter the the vast majority of the “delegates” are not scientists or don’t actually understand the problem. It is just about having larger and larger conferences so that, at the end, they can proclaim to the faithful media that they have more people agreeing with them than the other guy. In fact, the other guy is a racist, bigoted, white, straight male and so no-one agrees with him at all.
The hypocrisy doesn’t phase them at all, they can’t see it as they are fully deluded by the righteousness of their actions.
The ends justifies the means, this is why the dividing line of pro-anti AGW theory so solidly follows already existing political beliefs.
Lefties always believe they can run your life better than you. They need numbers to prove it, so they organise this crap.
Righties would just prefer that gov’t leave them the hell alone. They just get on with their life.
Nothing new under the sun, just new spin…
And you can bet they will be traveling to BALI in their own private jets and so will AL GORE to show off his undeserved awards and so will dozens of moonbats be there showing off their outright igorence and hypocracy
Come on now guys! Don’t knock hybrids. Where else can you rack up a $5-10k upfront cost so you can save 2-3k on gas over the few years the car lasts!
And batteries in the land-fill aren’t bad for the environment, are they?
Jack Layton’s 90HP outboard is a drop in the lake as compared to the jet fuel he and his cohorts spew into the atmosphere every time they board a jet to and from Ottawa. Those guys will fly from Ottawa to Vancouver too attend a tea party for the Vancouver Mousetrap Inventors Conference if it means getting 2 extra votes.
Jack Layton should practice what he does best, marching. After he’s done marching with the gays and lesbians, he should march home, stay there, and use the internet to communicate to Ottawa. If a small town Sask. farm girl (I’m not saying that out of spite–but out of respect) can attarct seven million people to this site using her keyboard, surely Jack Layton¸ can influence his voters and get his message across the same way.

New Tales of the South Pacific:
Most people live in a busy workplace,
Feed their families and pay their tax.
Climate clowns go to the island,
With pols and MSM hacks .
Bali Ha’i has called them
From the snow and ice
Private jets have hauled them
Never mind the price.
Bali Ha’i will whisper
In the wind of the sea:
“Here am I, your carbon credit
Come to me, come to me!”
Their own special scam,
Their own clever plan,
Launder our money
For Mo and his gang.
If you look, you’ll see them
On the Mansbridge “news”
With their dire warnings
And their climate blues.
Bali Ha’i,
Bali Ha’i,
Pay me now!
This week you’ll see them all congregating
Their heads stickin’ into a low sagging butt,
You’ll hear them preach
And pontificating
How you and I need to cut
So they can yammer and strut
If you try, you’ll find them
Where the sky meets the sea.
“Here am I your swim-up bar
Come to me, Come to me.”
Bali Ha’i,
Bali Ha’i,
Bali Ha’i!
that’s seven million “visits”.

I like the idea of recycling. Our garbage at the back has been reduced by the amount we leave to the front curb for the recycler…………
CBCpravda now uses the word “CO2 polluter” as stock in its lexicon like they use” pay for profit healthcare” and “but critics say” and “opposition blasts” and “Layton lashes” and “Dion thrashes”
Scorching heat and no vehicle emissions tests!
As I have stated many times before…
If you cannot sort out the truth of MMGW by looking at the supposed science,then take a good long look at the supposed solutions.
These agendists prove through their very own hypocritical actions that we need not make ‘really’ drastic actions to ‘save’ our planet.
It is simply an attack on the automobile and a wealth distribution scheme.
Stand fast Harper and do not sacrifice our country when others will make no sacrifices to their own industrial economies.
Is it possible to critique Dion and the enviro-weenies WITHOUT mocking the French language?
The French language begs to be mocked.
“Is it possible to critique Dion and the enviro-weenies WITHOUT mocking the French language?”
No
“I’ve decided to be like Harper when it comes to climate change and pretend none of this is happening.”
Says a man dressed in shorts and short sleeves, standing in the snow, beside a woman wrapped in a scarf and big winter coat.
That’s the editorial cartoon in today’s Star.
The editorial staff at the Star are psychotic.
Canada is predicted to have the coldest winter in 15 years. This. of course, is Harper’s fault because he’s ignoring AGW, er, wait a second, climate change. Yeah, climate change, that’s the ticket.
See, the fraud works regardless of the weather.
Psychopaths.
See, it’s ok, they just said so. The end always justifies the means, doesn’t it??

I don’t see where anybody has mocked the French language. Seems to me, it’s the English language that is being mocked . . . or is that completely butchered.
JohnyRingo,
Cal2 is mocking Dion’s horrible english not the French Language.
I am 100% French heritage and am not offended in the least by Cal2 poking fun at Dion’s lousy pronunciation.
Pretty thin excuse for righteous indignation.

They also say some other things that validate many of the comments on this thread:
“We don’t need talk, talk, talk,” said Ursula Rakova, 43, of Papua New Guinea’s Carteret islands, describing how the rising sea has destroyed once-fertile farmland on her island of Huene and split the land mass in two.
“For us to move, we need money to purchase land, build schools, build medical clinics,” said Rakova,..”
Translated. You made the climate change. Pay me now.
and
“Some say the size of the gathering doesn’t matter.
“I look at it from a very simple point of view,” said Achim Steiner, executive director of the U.N. Environmental Program. “It may sound like a lot of people, but you have to look at the issues, the number of countries involved, the number of people affected. Global warming is literally everyone’s business.””
So let’s have more delegates and more private jets flying in. Way to go, Kyoto.

Posted by: ET at December 4, 2007 10:43 AM
You’re getting warm ET! Dangerously close to seeing the role of the UN in the anti-Israel jihad! The UN bolstered by the 50+ country Islamic bloc is out to destroy western liberal democratic capitalism, and Israel is ground zero. The UN and the EU.
@irwin daisy:
That cartoon almost cries out for a caption contest. How about this one as an alternate, as said by the guy in shorts:
“I’m going to be like the IPCC and pretend that the hockey-stick graph is for real.”
Sorry to disappoint you, me no dhimmi. I stand by my assertion that the UN is a corrupt money laundering haven of crooks.
And I stand by my views on Israel-Palestine, which are, we both know, quite the opposite of yours. The UN is not the root cause of the problem in Israel-Palestine. Neither is Islam. As I’ve said, ad nauseum, don’t merge Islamic fascism with the Israel-Palestine land situation.
ET: We shall respectfully continue to disagree. This is one huge blind spot you have. The UN has been actively seeking the destruction of the state of Israel for decades. UNRWA [United National Relief Works Agency] is a out and out jihadist agency. One only needs to look at how it looked the other way and allowed Hizbollah to re-arm after the 2006 war.
Islam is absolutely at the core of the conflict ET: Islamic Jew-hatred in the Islamic Mein Kampf which is the Koran/Hadith.
You are aware, I presume, that Mein Kampf and The Protocols of the Elders of Zion are hot sellers in the area.
Again, do go to the MEMRI website frequently for a few weeks and watch for PaliNazi videos from “Palestinian” MSM.
It’s ISLAM ET: supremacist Islam which can’t abide a successful infidel nation in the region, least of all one from the lowest of the dhimmis, the sons of pigs and monkeys. Ask the little children in the elementrary schools, they’ll set you straight.
You didn’t disappoint me. You wrote a superb summary of the UN, your blind spot notwithstanding.
ET: It’s not a land dispute. You really really have to get this: not a border dispute. A border dispute would have been resolved long ago. As Bernard Lewis points out, it’s not about the size of Israel, it’s about the existence, or rather, non existence of Israel. I really can’t figure out how you ignore the Fatah AND Hamas charters which unabashadly spell this out.
I’m off topic here, my apologies Kate.
