  1. What? The dispensing of environmental indulgences shown to be corrupt? What shall the limosine liberals do now to assuage their tender consciences?
    The day that Al Gore sells all of his properties, moves into a 1000-square-foot townhouse, cycles to work, owns a single smart car (he’ll have to lose weight to fit), and never travels anywhere, I shall become a believer.

  2. Surprise, surprise!
    But the government swindling us into buying credits, that’s not criminal because…..?

  3. Feeling guilty in your SUV?
    Too Many trips to Mexico?
    House too large for you and the missus?
    Living beyond your useful years* knowing that you drained too much from the earth?
    Have no fear, all you guilt can be washed away!

  4. I mean really who would have thought that such a noble cause would be used this way?
    Every conservative I know that blogs or comments, anyone here besides the odd troll even mildly surprised?

  5. Scamming a scam within a scam,including scamming the VAT tax collection agency. It’s just one leftist rip off after another.
    Is there nothing from the left that is not a scam?
    If it’s not based in reality, then it is a scam. Nothing on the left is based in reality. Therefore the Left itself is a scam.
    When one is selling guilt avoidance credits, why can’t anyone set up to sell this vaporous product. It’s just paper with no real commodity or service attached.
    I will discount my guilt credits to beat any other offers. That’s right my babies, Discount Guilt Credits. They work as well as the more costly credits from the bigger guilt credit scammers. Why pay more? In fact … why pay at all. It is just a scam.
    Doesn’t this sound really stupid. That’s because it is!

  6. And if Crap & Trade or the Green Shaft or similar national government programmes become the law, then just wait for the collapse of the markets when the carbon stocks that don’t actually do anything crash. It will make the subprime crisis look like the “good old days”.

  7. Illiquid Assets,
    I’m not surprised at all. The left has taken a page out of the rightoid business playbook and added their own twist.
    On a related note…
    How about Republican Judge Robert Somma who was arrested this year for DWI after he hit a pick-up
    truck. Highway patrol found
    him wearing a black women’s
    cocktail dress, fishnet
    stockings and high heels.
    Lately, things like that are
    hardly worth noticing, but it’s
    hard to ignore male on male
    rape.

  8. Normal, day to day conversation with people I encounter in my daily life, when it turns to Climate Change, has changed in the last few months. Most people now understand that it is a fraud. That is to say, the “professional” journalists are failing in their attempts to help perpetrate this fraud.
    Most people, have thus turned to the corner on Climate Change to see it now for the fraud that it is. All that remains is for politicians to find a face-saving way of carting this travesty off to the nearest landfill. That’s after driving the bus over it a few times to make sure it’s dead, dead, dead.
    The journalists? Well, they have shot themselves in the foot, but are too closeted to realize it. My acquaintances, which includes folks from all places on the political spectrum, physically laugh at the morons on television and in print these days. The science flunkies telling us we’re all gonna die!

  9. not stirred enough, that judge is most likely one of the equivalent “red Tories” in Canada that try to pass themselves off as conservative. Just a liberal in disguise.
    The Ringleader might be hanging out at the fruit fly’s house.

  10. shaken:
    I wouldn’t call the morons on television and in print ‘science flunkies.’
    Science is what’s actually shining light on this fraud.

  11. NSE: You’re joking, right? You do see, don’t you, the difference between a global scam worth trillions of dollars and a guy who dresses like a member of a ho-train?
    Oh, why the hell do I waste my time.

  12. not stirred enough?(thinking little too stirred)
    DO NOT take this the wrong way but WTF has a Judge in panties got to do with Carbon Offset Schemes?
    This is the SOP for the left, no debate on the subject just start throwing shite until everyone is covered in it.
    Explain how this is a right playbook thing, we saw a scam coming and said so, raise your hands if you bought an off-set….

  13. I am still pee-ood they didn’t take my planetary alignment and solar flare theory seriously. ;-(
    ,

  14. Wow . . carbon credit fraud.
    No wonder this concept is so attractive to their Democrats and our Liberals.

  15. So when will the warrant be issued for Chairman Mo, the Dr. Evil behind it all. I mean the warrant for the global warming fraud, not the warrant for the oil for food scandal and God only knows how much he has managed to skim from the Canadian taxpayer. Maybe God’s partner, the Obamessiah knows?

  16. I’m selling Dragon-Away powder, guaranteed to keep your yard and home free from dragons.
    Which is based more on reality than carbon offset credits.

  17. Despite the best efforts of our marxist friends, the kulak resistance continues to gain strength every day.
    Although the commies are now totally discredited, they will become twice as desperate in their attempt to suppress the inherent strength of the individual.
    Don’t let them do it. Our inner strength, and factual science, will defeat these lying monsters.
    Deception and changing the topic are their tactic. It is good that we have recognized it and forced them into retreat.

  18. Neo-kulaks of the world unite!
    You have nothing to lose but your forced collectivization carbon credit payments.

  19. This could have had the makings of a Sopranos episode (I really miss that show).
    re. shaken too much @2:31 – should we ask him what he means by: “hard to ignore male on male rape”, or is it best just to leave it?

  20. I’m very disappointed that this has arisen as it makes it harder for us, legitimate, certified carbon traders to do business (you know — sort of like those “certified” psychics on late night TV ads). Why only the other day I told one of my lefty friends that he could indulge himself and buy the RV he’s been eyeing by simply paying me $1.00 per mile not to buy the RV that I’ve been looking at — no really, it’s the “Road Hobo” . . . er, “Deadbeat” . . . er, “Track Vagabond”, or something like that, I think.
    Anyway, other carbony things I’m not going to do if some lefty/greenie will pay me include: not building a fire pit on the back deck of my condo: not buying another new car to pull behind the RV; not building my experimental mini-smelter in the basement, etc., etc, etc. Any more ideas for things I could not do in exchange for carbon credits? Oh and by the way, I promise to not pay taxes on any of the things I don’t do. How’s that for ethical?

  21. This is for not stirred enough and has nothing to do with the global warming scam. It is about the arrest of Racine Mayor Gary Becker(DEMOCRAT) for attemting to solict a fourteen year old girl over the internet. Note that the AP article takes great pains not to mention his politics! I found it when I googled Democrat arrested.
    I apologize for wasting Kate’s bandwidth, and I only do it to point out to not stirred that no political party is exempt. Now I am going outside to enjoy our first warm day of the month!

  22. Set you free: read my comment again. I refer to our “professional” journalist friends as “science flunkies”… you know, the kids in the class that flunked science… these are the ones that went to journalism “school” are now trying sell us “Climate Change”.
    Real scientists are impressive.

  23. shaken:
    I have discovered the source of my confusion.
    flunky = A person of slavish or unquestioning obedience; a lackey.
    flunkee = person, thing that fails.

  24. The bond credit raters were in the tank in the US giving excellent ratings for junk or worthless mortgages and helped crash the US economy.
    It appears that the carbon trading racket in the UK has similar style market “raters”.
    Sham, scam, again just like “food for oil’ scam run by the UN.
    Any carbon selling / buying scheme entered into by ANY government, is a massive fraud ….. made legal.

  25. So does a Scottish judge who sets a terrorist free in order to get a deal for the homeland on Libyan oil qualify for credits or does he owe?

  26. lol One con used to scam the anyone gullable enough to believe in HGW or AGW to begin with.
    I mean, even your local weatherman ain’t to prophetic. Why would you expect others to have FAITH in calculations generations a head?
    JMO

  27. “All that remains is for politicians to find a face-saving way of carting this travesty off to the nearest landfill”
    That’s wishful thinking IMO. Unless I’m mistaken, there is a consensus politically on both sides of the boarder; so, regardless of the public’s wishes the matter appears to be “settled”. Someone correct me if I’m wrong please.
    Wrt what I call the “green bubble” it will definitely pop, and eviscerate billions of dollars in North American wealth. So, what is different with this bubble and the real estate bubble? Canadians will be on this ride.
    I don’t look forward to the day when the Liberals and the Dippers cry “bloody heck” about how the Conservatives were hoodwinked, and I can say “I told you so”.

  28. Shaken, I respectfully disagree with your assertion that “real scientists are impressive”.
    There are some impressive scientists.
    The scientific community have seriously degrading their credibility. There are legions of rent seeking scientists worldwide that actively aided in the current global warming fiasco.
    They’re still doing it.
    There are legions more who stayed silent, yet were fully aware that the science was flawed.
    It wasn’t that long ago that it was difficult to find a scientist who would publically question AGW dogma. When AGW is finally debunked, the scientific community will have some work to do in order to regain the public’s trust.

  29. Mamba O/T
    FYI: other great HBO shows
    I’m probably not telling you anything you don’t already know but Curb Your Enthusiasm(funniest show eva) kicks off its final season this fall.
    Currently my favorite comedy is the HBO show Flight of the Concords, definitely must see TV.
    Also, have you seen the series Rome? It’s my personal favorite, bloody amazing!
    I also enjoy True Blood and the old series Carnival.
    If you haven’t checked these shows out, you dun dropped the ball.

  30. When Inco was showering acid rain down on Ontario citizens, they were forced to clean-up their emissions.
    They were NOT allowed to purchase acid rain credits from some foreign company, allowing Inco to continue to spew acid rain while the foreign company allegedly scrubs their emissions.
    That is the gist of carbon credits…pay a fee and you can pollute to your hearts desire.
    Carbon credits are about scamming the public and have nothing to do with saving the planet.

  31. What a shock!
    Who could have seen that coming?
    Thankfully that’s the end of it.
    Now, on to rebuilding the poor glaciers.

  32. Dr. Roy has a video up that is a devastating rebuttal of the whole AGW argument. Too bad most of the real believers are too committed to their point of view to ever watch it, let alone be swayed by it.

  33. Only seven arrests? Carbon trading fraud can be traced back to the very top echelons of the international banking industry that underwrites speculation on defrauding junk science hucksters.
    When friends of the IMF like Gore and Strong are doing time for capital fraud, I’ll believe the law is blind to economic class. Until that time I’ll continue to believe we have the best justice system money can buy.

    ### Well at least these dupes had a choice to reject the con, we as consumers had the carbon credit costs forced upon us through increased hidden costs and taxes born by the supply chain of our essential consumables.
    If we ever see a honest inflation index break down, we will discover the single largest component of modern inflation spiral is carbon off set costs and taxing of producers. Wait ’till US consumers get handed the cost of cap and trade in their consumer goods. I hope the Dems have a bunker somewhere they can hide from public backlash.

  35. William in Ajax….sooooooo correct. Now….anybody want to pay me 10 bucks for cookie credits to stop the baking of the baked batch I just took out of the oven?

  36. “A disincentive exists for doing a thorough job”
    Corporations, oil co’s and conservatives invented that concept to destroy the environment, seals and homosexuals. Rightards will face the music only through natural rehab camps, carbon taxes, sex-ed and humility to gaia, and the destruction of the rightosphere of the innertubes..

  37. I agree, Comrade Lefty.
    The thought criminals must be sent to re-education camp.
    Our glorious future cannot be possible if human beings continue in the bourgeois practise of having children against the wishes of Gaia.
    That is why we must re-educate the proles into the glories of homosexual behaviour. That way, they will understand how repulsive it is to reproduce.
    Human beings are a virus to our planet godess and the less of them that are breathing, the more we can progress toward our secular humanist utopia.
    Individual thought cannot be tolerated by the glorious collective of human perfection.
    Once the oppressors are shamed in a glorious show trial for these crimes against Gaia, it is totally justifiable to follow the example of the great Stalin and kill those who do not agree with us.
    These neo-kulaks must be taught a lesson they will never forget.

  38. Let this madness continue for as long as humanly possible. The longer leftists claim the government has the power to control the the weather, the better.
    I say…

  39. Knight:
    Since there is no God, it was the Central Committee that not only created the sky, the mountains, the trees, the oceans, the fish, the apes, the squids and the lowest of all … the neo-kulaks.
    How dare they have more than the starving masses?
    What, other than hard work, gives them the right to be so happy?
    The proles have their wants and the bourgeois has the means.
    It is us, the glorious Commisars, who will take the ill-gotten gains from oppressors and give it back to their rightful owners.

  40. Indy @6:52 – oddly, I was thinking today (don’t ask why) about the episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Larry digs up his recently deceased mother. Good times.
    Of the others, I’ve only ever heard of Rome. Isn’t Madmen supposed to be good? Maybe I should get HBO; but I’m scared that if I watch TV it might cut into my internet time, and then what would you all do? Also, every time I turn on the TV someone’s saying something stupid about Michael Jackson and it bums me out.
    I do like House.
    On/T – Carbon Credits are a dumb idea. They’re modern-day indulgences (isn’t that original?) and we need our Martin Luther, or something.

  41. [quote]That is why we must re-educate the proles into the glories of homosexual behaviour. That way, they will understand how repulsive it is to reproduce.[/quote] set you free
    Heck it’s simpler with less stigma to copulate with Goats…You be called a fine Scotsman and get to wear the plaid of your choice…

  42. Well look on the bright side. If you have something to sell that only a sucker will buy – you know what blogs and demographic to target – liberals , environmentalists, conspirators and climate change adherents. I am working on some new products now – stay tuned. Unfortunately, I have to remove Oprah and Dr. Oz’s picture off the websites in case its taken as an endorsement. They announced they will be suing all those websites, ads, and product companies today. Bummer – they were helping with sales.

  43. Mamba
    “Rome” is amazing. It’s a little front loaded with that stuff you eluded to not knowing much about; anyways, rent the DVD, it’s well worth it. Have a little patience though, I remember thinking “cheese” for the first episode or two. If you prefer less violence and gore, “Carnival” is just as good.
    I don’t know about “MadMen” I’ll look for it. While you’re on the net, go to YouTube and check out “Flight of the Concords”. There are plenty of short snipits from their live music shows to get a taste.

  44. Being a bloodthirsty right-winger, naturally I LOVE violence and gore! 😀
    I’ll look into it.
