Did you even read the article? Did you completely miss the
paragraph about diesel fuels? Where does the article SCOLD clit
and junior? It just states that President Bush is continuing the
policies of the glitter twins but the press is howling because he
doesn't act on their pet issues.
For those of you with rose glass, take them off and see the
money. That's the only reason there is any enviornmental causes,
FUNDRAISING. Yes a lot of those groups started as genuine grass
roots, using their own money to fight their fight but now it is
all just a big business. Just like the AARP or breast cancer
groups. They have to be out there every day banging the gong to
keep the spotlight on them so the money will flow in. All the
dupes out there open their mouths for the shovel full of bull
shit the media feeds them.
You want to prove enviornmental groups are good? Find me one that
spends less then 10% on administartion cost, heck make it 25%.
Show me one that uses their money to help a poor community buy an
up to date water filtration plant instead of buying advertising time.
Before I get too out of wack remeber that charity begins at home
and caring about the world should also. Recycle. Keep your car
serviced so it runs efficently. When at work turn the lights off
in a room when you leave it (and watch how many funny stares you
get when you do).
