NASA’s Hansen to Obama: Use Global Warming to Redistribute Wealth

Climate realists around the world have contended for years that the real goal of alarmists such as Nobel Laureate Al Gore and his followers is to use the fear of man-made global warming to redistribute wealth.

On Monday, one of Gore’s leading scientific resources, Goddard Institute for Space Studies chief James Hansen, sent a letter to Barack and Michelle Obama specifically urging the president-elect to enact a tax on carbon emissions that would take money from higher-income Americans and distribute the proceeds to the less fortunate.

Incredible!

Why is this guy wasting his talents at NASA. He should be a socialist politician!

RANT: GOT SCREWED AT JOE’S; Not Recommended!

Got the promo email. Went in for my “free” appetizer. (Hey, I know it’s a scam, but we like the food.) Asked for it. Didn’t get it. Told to: “Check the fine print. You have to have the offer to get it.” See offer below. (Ignoring the crude way they did it.) You see any fine print? I don’t. Guess we won’t be back there. I’d urge you to avoid it as well. I filled out the web site comment (with the annoying music) and we’ll see. I’m not expecting much! Please help me boycott them! Nationwide. If you do go, (cause you have to), please give the manager a print of this blog post. Be interested to see just how much power the inet has?

JUST SAY “NO” … TO JOE!
