Obama, Clinton woo coal vote in upcoming primaries
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are walking a delicate line as they promise to aggressively tackle global warming while trying to assure voters that they continue to believe in the future of coal.
In states like Pennsylvania, where voters will cast ballots this Tuesday, and in West Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana and Montana — upcoming primary states — coal sways voters.
(snip)
Both Obama and Clinton have rallied environmentalists with their promises to develop windmills, solar power and other renewable energy sources and order mandatory reductions in greenhouse gases from power plants to counter global warming.
It’s an energy policy that would seem to target coal, which produces half the country’s electricity but also nearly 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide, the leading greenhouse gas, each year.
Instead, “clean coal” has become the mantra of both candidates. Some environmentalists are not too happy with that.
“They keep using the term ‘clean coal.’ That’s really an oxymoron,” snaps Brent Blackwelder, president of the environmental group Friends of the Earth. “They absolutely are pandering the coal industry’s propaganda that clean coal is the hope of the future. There’s no such animal as clean coal.”
Actually, there is. And the story behind it illustrates Hillary Clinton’s hypocrisy.
During his second term, President Clinton used the Antiquities Act to turn parts of southern Utah and northern Arizona into a national monument, called the Grand Staircase Escalante. It just so happens that that area has a lot of clean coal underneath it that all of a sudden was off-limits, such that to comply with Federal environmental standards, clean coal had to be purchased from an Indonesian cabal called the Lippo Group, run by a family called Riady that just so happened to dump bags of money into the Clinton for President campaigns.

I don’t get it. California wants to allow for staggered automobile registration fees in Los Angeles County based on their fuel economy. Yet L.A. is a sanctuary city for illegal aliens, and Hispanics aren’t generally known for their efficient consumption of energy.
Someone ’splain, please?

Baby tax needed to save planet, claims expert
A WEST Australian medical expert wants families to pay a $5000-plus “baby levy” at birth and an annual carbon tax of up to $800 a child.
Writing in today’s Medical Journal of Australia, Associate Professor Barry Walters said every couple with more than two children should be taxed to pay for enough trees to offset the carbon emissions generated over each child’s lifetime.
Professor Walters, clinical associate professor of obstetric medicine at the University of Western Australia and the King Edward Memorial Hospital in Perth, called for condoms and “greenhouse-friendly” services such as sterilisation procedures to earn carbon credits.
And he implied the Federal Government should ditch the $4133 baby bonus and consider population controls like those in China and India.
So, in effect, if Dr. Walters gets his way, taking away the AUS$4,133 baby bonus and then subjecting their parents to a $5,000 tax per baby, each newborn in Australia would cost his or her parents $9,133, plus $800 a year.
Last I looked, the world isn’t suffering for a glut of white people, and Australia isn’t exactly suffering from a lack of white Australians. Let’s see Dr. Walters travel to Mexico and tell people there that each newborn will cost them the Mexican peso equivalent of AUS$9,133 up front then AUS$800 a year. Rather, let’s see him do that and get out of there alive.

In spite of his campaign rhetoric.
Now all he needs to do is change his mind on immigration, and he might as well change his name to John Howard.
Poetic Justice Updates October 19, 2007

The Poetic Justice page on the St. Louis CofCC Static Webpage has a couple of updates.
(1) “Lucky Dube,” a South African reggae singer, was not so lucky. After making a career of writing anti-apartheid and anti-white music, he was carjacked and shot to death by two men last night in suburban Johannesburg. And it’s not surprising because:
South Africa has one of the highest crime rates in the world, recording an average of 50 murders each day. U.N. crime statistics say one in three Johannesburg residents has been robbed. Rapes and assaults also are common.
He wanted equality, and he got equality.
(2) Timothy Treadwell, of “Timothy and the Three Bears,” had a movie made about his life’s story. Called Into the Wild, it stars Emile Hirsch as the Treadwell-like Christopher McCandless, and is directed by Sean Penn. The Post has the local showtimes. Netflix will have it in a few months.
Fine As Far As It Goes October 1, 2007

AP:
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff on Monday defended the construction of a fence along the southwest border, saying it’s actually better for the environment than what happens when people illegally cross the U.S.-Mexico line.
“Illegal migrants really degrade the environment. I’ve seen pictures of human waste, garbage, discarded bottles and other human artifact in pristine areas,” Chertoff said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. “And believe me, that is the worst thing you can do to the environment.”
This is actually a good argument, as Minuteman Civil Defense Corps volunteers have several times in the past year spent the entirety of a Saturday cleaning up illegal alien trash in parts of the desert that are popular for illegal alien migration.
But this begs the more obvious question: Which fence is he talking about? The one that’s only 2% complete as of August, and will stay 2% complete for the foreseeable future, because neither the current open-borders President nor his open-borders nurse ratchet successor have any desire to finish it?
British Government No Longer Hires “White English” People August 5, 2007

Miss Abigail Howarth is an 18-year old environmental studies student in Little Straughton, Bedfordshire, England, UK, and the governmental Environment Agency’s training program for students told her to buzz off, because it only exists for non-whites and whites other than the English.
Abigail, of Little Straughton, Bedfordshire, said: “I was really disappointed. To be told being “White English” ruled me out in my home county shocked me. I know why there are positive action training schemes to assist those who are genuinely discriminated against but when it’s broken down to this level it seems crazy to me.”
If positive (i.e. affirmative) action should benefit those who are “genuinely discriminated against,” then it seems the “white English” should be first in line. Then again, since it is England, the “white English” should be first in line notwithstanding anything else.
If I were making acceptance decisions for this program, she would be FIRST in line, and I would take a long time getting to the second person in line.
RFK Jr. Calls For Execution of Global Warming Skeptics July 10, 2007

However, Etheridge aside, it was nonmusicians at this concert who made the most passionate pleas about demanding action for the environment. “Get rid of all these rotten politicians that we have in Washington, who are nothing more than corporate toadies,” said Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the environmentalist author, president of Waterkeeper Alliance and Robert F. Kennedy’s son, who grew hoarse from shouting. “This is treason. And we need to start treating them as traitors.”
The traditional punishment for treason is execution.
