To lessen the impact of their carbonated footpint as their hero has
suggested, Al Gore's sheep and other assorted liberal weenies will
voluntarily freeze their asses off this winter, while Green Al keeps
his plantation at a toasty 76 degrees, because he can "buy" carbon
credits. His black sheep won't get with the program, though. No
sireee. Black folks are even less concerned about environmental
catastrophe than I am.

And that's saying something.

Per http://www.carbonfund.org/vw buying carbon credits isn't very expensive.

Buying a years carbon credit for a Ford 250 would be between $26 and $33...
far cheaper than I would have thought considering I don't think it gets much
better mpg than my 350...

The left can quickly reduce their carbon footprint by only breathing in. If
they breath out they will be adding to the CO2 level.

This is a good question. The trail seems a bit murky to me, though
the UN seems heavily involved through the UNFCCC agreement. The
