Doing My Part For Mother Earth...Kinda

For those of you who know me, you know that I am conservative when it comes to politics. There is no way that I would ever think of voting for Comrade Obama. I am coming to grips with having John McCain as the nominee for the Republicans, even though there are some big issues that I disagree with him on. One of those issues is the whole "green" movement. Specifically Global Warming.

I don't believe in the myth of Global Warming for even a second. The earth has been warming and cooling, and then warming up again for millions of years. I am sorry, but the premise that we are doing something that is affecting the warming of the earth is one of the most moronic things to ever be mentioned. Especially since it all comes down to a different kind of green. The green of money.

It is not a well known fact that Al Gore is part of an investment group that stands to make millions off of the Global Warming scam.(If you want to read more, check out stories here and here) Of course the worst one in my eyes is G.E. They use their numerous media outlets (NBC in particular) to push different green technologies. The one product that I am very hostile towards are the compact fluorescent light bulbs. They say to use them because they use less energy, and can last for like 16 years. There have even been calls for all incandescent light bulbs to be banned, since they are not considered "eco friendly" like the CFLB's are.

Now I don't know about you, but to me the light emitted from CFLB's is crappy light. I light the nice yellowy glow from an old school light bulb. Not the whitish blue color that those rounded dung bombs produce. That, and you have to wait for the sucky things to warm up. And if you are a user of CFLB's, I hope that you know a little fact about them. They contain mercury. In case you don't know, mercury is a neurotoxin. Neurotoxins are bad. Well, unless you like nerve damage that is. Of course this is only if you drop one. I hope you have a steady hand.


All of this brings me to what this post is about. One of the things that environmental wack jobs pound on is the amount of fossil fuels we use. If they had their way, we wouldn't use any. Of course if that was the case, you could kiss all airplanes goodbye. But since these are not rational people that we are dealing with here, they don't want to hear it.


So about a year ago, Glenn Beck was talking on his show about how whenever he and his wife would drive their SUV's around Manhattan, they would always seem to get dirty looks. He explained about how the people there were disgusted by the fact that they owned not just one, but TWO SUV's! Two gas guzzling, environment destroying SUV's. This made Glenn think about some kind of sticker he could put on his car that might throw off these liberal envirowackos, and lead them to believe that these SUV's aren't as evil as others. And so the Hydrocarbon Eco sticker was born.

Now for those of you who don't know, hydrocarbon is another way to say OIL. That is what makes these stickers so great. Here is what they look like:




Pure brilliance if you ask me. Green border, and upside down mother earth, the word "eco." You can't go wrong with this sticker. It looks like all of those tree hugger stickers you see on those V dub vans and slug bugs that greenies drive. (well, for those who can afford them, the Toyota Prius. Talk about an ugly P.O.S! But that is another post by itself)

Here is the one that I have on my Accord:

So ladies and gents, those of you who are tired of the looks you get for using your right as an American to drive the monster that you do, these stickers are great. I have had two different people ask me how I converted my car to a hydrocarbon car. Both times I just smiled and said that I was lucky enough that someone had made it that way before I purchased it. And now every time I drive by a butt ugly Prius, the green freak will look at my back window, and think that there is another do gooder on the road trying to save the planet. It makes me giddy just thinking about it!

If anyone is interested in buying some, you can get them here. They come two to a pack, which comes in handy to those people that live in either Seattle, Portland, Boulder, (Colorado) or Northern California, since they will most likely be torn off of your car by some crazed environmentalist.
