your right. don't touch the oil and wine. I would want to live here too after being starved to death. What we throw away whole villages could live off!
Rev 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
Oil is traded in dollars, that was part of the reason we had to get Saddam, he threatened to trade his oil in eurodollars. That's why France was so mad.
We can try to conserve some energy now, but really I think it is too late and a dollar short.
If telling the truth about US is liberal then ok.
We are too fat and greedy.

You have a very sick view of America, thinking that Americans don't care about anyone "as long as we and our pets are comfortable." That's rubbish.

And unfortunately, very sadly, the people that do not leave any carbon footprint, that conserve the most - the 'true' environmentalists - these will be the people that feel the effects of global warming the most.
It trully is sickening, disturbing - but if we all come together for a common good for once, be good stewards as God calls us to do - perhaps we CAN turn this around and prevent suffering.
<And this is not aimed at tracydolls, but anyone, really> Why not try? We have nothing to lose - we'd be gaining such a blessing: learning about other cultures, at least to me (I love to travel).

I do not need Bo, to tell me common sense, or others. SUVS the dealers cannot get rid of them. We watch pennies, for food more carefully, because of it is higher because gas prices. I have a mini-van, but just bought a PT Crusier, covertable, wanted a red one for a long time. I use the van when I have too, because, there is five, in my family. Two of my girls have thier own cars though, so, I don't know I am getting irritated, Obama needs to mind his own knitin, and stive to be a good, and Godly man if he is going to lead our country. Money, Money, Money, is that all that matters to him! What about life, which is to precious to ignore, first things first.

Obama is an elitist. He's wealthy. He travels by private jet, goes on luxury vacations and has an Ivy League education. I don't mind any of that. What I mind is when he tells people who have lots less than the does, that they must do without. Al Gore is very much like that only worse.
McCain went to the high-falutin Naval Academy, married a booze baronness, goes on luxury vacations, and travels by Private Jet. So did Mitt Romney.
The main difference between McCain and Obama is that Obama has actually worked to consume less energy. Same with Gore. Naturally, from the perspective of an African who cooks using wood, everyone on this forum uses way too much energy, but we need to in order to go about our lives.
Try running a presidential campaign without flying on a plane. Perhaps there is just as much inconsistency in McCain supporters pointing out Obama's inconsistencies as there exist in Obama's consistencies alone.

You must have missed my statement, "I don't mind any of that."
Obama's offense isn't that he uses lots of energy. It's that he uses lots of it and suggests to people who already use less than he does that they need to change.
Al Gore is an energy pig. He is not on a presidential campaign yet still flies private jets. He lectures others about the dangers of global warming then uses more energy than almost any other American. A bunch of large homes. Huge electric use. Private jets.

As Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete told Bush: "The outpouring of warmth and affection from the people of Tanzania that you have witnessed since your arrival is a genuine reflection of what we feel toward you and towards the American people."
There's a good reason for that display of gratitude and friendship: Thanks to Bush's little-heralded African initiative, "hundreds of thousands of mothers' and childrens' lives" have been saved from HIV and malaria, said Kikwete.
GWB to the rescue
--
Did you ever hear of PMI, GWB's presidential malaria initiative? I'll bet not.
"PMI is already saving lives and has reached more than 6 million Africans... PMI distributed more than 1 million mosquito nets to protect pregnant women and children under age 5; conducted indoor residual spraying campaigns to shield over 2 million people; and procured over a million treatments of highly effective artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) and other antimalarial drugs to treat the disease. This year, an additional 30 million people are expected to benefit from lifesaving treatment and prevention measures as PMI expands..."
we only care about our cats and dogs
Or how about GWB's AIDS program for Africa, PEPFAR?
"James Munyaneza, New Times/AllAfrica.com: It is "indisputable" that Bush has "showed commitment to help save lives in developing countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa" through PEPFAR, the African Growth and Opportunity Act and the Millennium Challenge Account... In addition, Munyaneza writes that Bush is "passionately pushing for several pro-Africa initiatives" that "will extend" the programs in the next U.S. administration (Munyaneza, New Times/AllAfrica.com, 2/19).
Americans don't care about people with AIDS
Americans are greedy
I could go on and on about how good America is to other people.
GWB - The guy has received no political benefit from these programs. He gets no bump in his approval ratings. He gets little notice at home. He did it because he thought it was the right thing to do, like the rest of us.

Wait- which party was the one that supported domestic wiretapping? Random searches by police on city sidewalks? Who's sticking who's nose into who's life?
I am mildly annoyed by the fact that Democrats want to mandate energy efficiency- rather than letting the market handle things- but it's much less obnoxious than the micro-management of my life that Republicans propose.
I'm sure that many Brazilians are annoyed by the fact that a country that uses roughly five times as much energy per capita as it wants it to slow down deforestation. But that doesn't mean that Americans don't lead by example. The fact is that we've worked to find sensible ways to reduce our consumption without affecting our lifestyles. That's really all the Democrats are asking for.
Gore installed solar cells on his property, and his neighbors complained that they were unsightly. If Gore can do that, don't you think that you can turn your thermostat down from 72 to 68 in the winter? Pay an extra $300 for a car that uses a more efficient gearbox to get better mileage? Install CFLs?
Regardless of Al Gore's lavish lifestyle (which is often necessary because of the nature of a politician's job), he's made more modifications to it than you have. Shouldn't he be judged based on how far out of his way he has gone to reduce consumption, rather than his total consumption?
After all, many of the pundits you see on television mocking Gore likely consume more energy than he does. For example, this guy: http://cryptome.org/billo-birdseye.htm . And finally, of course, even if Al Gore is a terrible guy, I can point to plenty of conservatives who have declared BK several times who argue for fiscal responsibility. I can point to plenty of conservatives who push for government-enforced morality who've gotten into trouble for various reasons. I don't know why conservatives automatically equate environmentalism and Al Gore (they could just as easily do so with Olympia Snowe (R-Maine)), but I do know that no liberal decided that he should be the spokesman for environmentalism.

The key word here is conservative. This administration, is as conservative, as Gwen Stefani is creative. And Olympia Snowe may as well be a Democrat.
I really believe the majority of those, lapping up BHO's statements, such as this one, really don't want freedom, liberty, but are looking for that "just master'" to lead them around by the nose.

I would agree. However, it should be my decision, and not the local Komissar, appointed by the government, forcing me to.

I have seen the good things GWB as done, and your right he has done it from his heart, because all anyone ever does is attack him, the right and the left. I love my border collies, they stink I do not pay 100 dollars for them to be groomed I put a muzzle on Rowdy, and pray for safety and bathe him myself. I do the same to Buleah, but she is much more subdued. I did buy a new car, three weeks ago, because my other two have been driven to death. I have, put many town miles on the mini van, taking people around, that have no transportation. We own a nice home, but, this is after many years in the sewer shack, a long story, of four females one male, and one bathroom. I am a bleeding heart conservative, a sucker many times, being used alot, still am according to my husband. I agree if someone buys a three thousand dollar dog collar that is sin. I do not buy what I cannot afford. My clothes and jewelry come aminly from wal-mart. would not buy SUV, I could not afford the gas, or would not want to. Tracy is somewhat right also, people do not help one another in the church as they should. This takes listening to the Holy Spirit, and obdience to what he ask you to do. I know a person cannot meet everyones needs, but, praying earnestly if you cannot for Gods provison and the poor matters.

Conservatism is dead. If 2 terms of Dubya hasn't convinced anyone of that then the nomination of McCain afterward should have. I won't go into the Republican Congress from 2000 to 2006. Either conservatism is dead or else it was a big lie to take power I'm not convinced of which it is yet.

Then the next time liberals want to execute someone by starvation, they should kill a kitten instead of Terri Schiavo.
An easy dividing line between liberals and conservatives is their animosity toward America. To conservatives, America is a wonderful place with some flaws, but made up of great people. To liberals, we're "greedy," we don't care about anyone else "as long as we and our pets are comfortable and fat," and "WE can't possbily say we love anyone."
I respond by sticking up for America and Americans and you act like a good liberal and criticize me.
If we're going to talk about fat, greedy people, then maybe we should continue with Al Gore. How many of you remember that on one of his tax returns while he was VP he gave less than a five hundred dollars to charity? Here's a guy who was making a few hundred a year off a zinc mine on his property that was cited for polluting the water. Here's a guy who contintued to brag about being a tobacco farmer after his sister died of lung cancer. Here's a chicken little who tells us the world is coming to an end if we don't reduce our energy use. Too bad he's got a carbon footprint bigger than Sasquatch.

I think the people who hate America the most are the people in government who want to take away the civil liberties enumerated in the Bill of Rights and expand the powers of the government to something more along the lines of 1920's Italy.

Well, you appear to respond with ad-hominems, which by definition, means engaging in animosity towards Americans (assuming tracydolls lives here.) I think there's more consistent ways of going about defending America than calling Americans sick and anti-American.

What is it with you and Al Gore? I know he's the antichrist, but is he really that bad that you have to be obsessed with him whenever the topic of "environmentalism" or "liberalism" comes up?

Example: Diamonds, where are they mined, how many jewelry stores do you see and how many dogs do you see wearing diamond collars?

What Bo said is reasonable, not that I trust him to do anything right
but he does have the gift of gab.
EDit-I am an American. My people came here in 1683. I live in MN. Where I was born and raised.

Like a good liberal - Neocon LJ you can't seem to handle any kind of criticism without putting forth a minimal effort of intelligence and calm. No one died and gave you the sceptre of liberalness in which you can take any and all criticism and smite us because of them. Part of what makes America great is the right of people to have and say many different things. Since you hate that right so much and hate liberals more there's a great place for someone like you: Tehran. You'd fit right in.
