Not exactly a right wing rag...
But they joke about lots of stuff for the "Live Earth" nonsense...
My opinion? Waste of time. But the greenies have set themselves up well. If we cool off, they'll take the credit for it (or simply deny we're cooler). If not, they'll blame Americans, and they'll cripple us with their worthless legislation. Either way, they look good.

*all the fuel used
*all the electricity used (I used to mess with the small time gigs and what-not and you talk about energy use!)
*all the fuel used by the fans
*the energy of the arena
*the energy of the generators on those buses
*the energy used by the fans at the hotels, diners, etc
*the eneergy used by the news media to cover it all
*all the hot air produced by the greenies -
Had some greenie propaganda in one of newspapers today, but was bit cool to go outside and burn it, so just sitting inside with heater turned right up until it warms a bit :)
