It was only a matter of time.

And it will get worse.


Al Gore won't like you for exposing this sort of thing. Watch CNN Headline
News on May 2nd at 7:00 pm.

For $25 you can get a tree planted in Harry's name by the Chesapeake Bay.
Now *that* is worthwhile carbon offsettlement!


If you get enough participants will it be named the "Harry Krause Rec.Boats
Forest?"

Eisboch


Now *that's* an idea worth pursuing!

Leagalize weed and half the country will grow lots of trees. And the
socialists will have plenty of tax money to give to George Soros, One
World, ELF, the Chinees military, and the rest of their campaign
contributors, which of course is what this whole global warming/carbon
credit scam is about anyway.

Then you have folks like Al Gore buying credits from companies he has
a financial stake in. Carbon credits are kind of like selling a kidney
in my opinion. Basically what these folks are saying is: "Since you
can't afford to live a decent lifestyle anyway, we will buy some of
your lifestyle from you and then you will at least have some feel good
money". It is really immoral, as well as a scam.

On that, my friend, we totally agree.

Gosh, that's not what Al would have us believe, but I think we're finally
seeing a little more eye to eye on this subject.
