-Pay a tree for its sacrifice of absorbing your nasty carbon footprint

Just one of those stories... oh how far we have fallen.

Designer Nitipak Samsen has designed the Automated Tree-Rental for Emission Encaging Machine (ATREEM), which essentially allows you to purchase carbon credits from a tree. The gadget measures the growth of a tree, translating into how much carbon dioxide the tree has absorbed. The gadget is designed to highlight just how long it takes for our carbon dioxide emissions to be reabsorbed.

The device is more about awareness than being a practical method for charging people for their carbon dioxide emissions. However, the gadget is capable of charging credit cards using its swipe-card interface.

-"Smart" Car accidents!: Five Reasons NOT to Buy These Stupid Cars

Lately I've been seeing an influx of so called "Smart" cars on the road. Let's put an end to this nonsense... I hope that the .00000001 percent of the Carbon Dioxide that you saved from being emitted into the atmosphere was worth it for these eco-literate drivers...


Not so smart now!


ObamaInsurance. Coming soon to a politically correct car near you.


The Devolution of a Revolution

-Yale Press removed Muhammad cartoon from a book about...Mohammed cartoons

This is hilarious. And pathetic. Or Orwellian.

From the New York Times:

Yale University and Yale University Press consulted two dozen authorities, including diplomats and experts on Islam and counterterrorism, and the recommendation was unanimous: The book, “The Cartoons That Shook the World,” should not include the 12 Danish drawings that originally appeared in September 2005. What’s more, they suggested that the Yale press also refrain from publishing any other illustrations of the prophet that were to be included, specifically, a drawing for a children’s book; an Ottoman print; and a sketch by the 19th-century artist Gustave Doré of Muhammad being tormented in Hell, an episode from Dante’s “Inferno” that has been depicted by Botticelli, Blake, Rodin and Dalí…

John Donatich, the director of Yale University Press, said by telephone that the decision was difficult, but the recommendation to withdraw the images, including the historical ones of Muhammad, was “overwhelming and unanimous.” The cartoons are freely available on the Internet and can be accurately described in words, Mr. Donatich said, so reprinting them could be interpreted easily as gratuitous.

He noted that he had been involved in publishing other controversial books — like “The King Never Smiles” by Paul M. Handley, a recent unauthorized biography of Thailand’s current monarch — and “I’ve never blinked.” But, he said, “when it came between that and blood on my hands, there was no question.”

Oh we're so "progressive" and "culturally sensitive"! Give me a break. Want to see one of the offfending cartoons? Well, we will be so bold as to publish one, at the risk of death threats.

Watch as Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) takes a phone call while being asked a question.



Um, Your Highness? You answer to these people, the same ones that you see as peasants and sycophants, apparently.

“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,”

Yeah, he really said that. Check out the Town Hall violence instigated by Obama's brownshirts...

-Rachel Maddow at MSNBC demonstrates the liberal hypocrisy that is so prevalent right now

In keeping with the MSNBC is a joke theme, here is the hypocrisy demonstrated by "talk show host" Rachel Maddow. These really speak for themselves, you don't have to watch the videos in their entirety, just get a taste.



Rachel Maddow is just wrong about her "crazy conspiracy theories." These are legitimate concerns that have a basis in fact, unlike much of her weak show. Anyway, here is how she described the incident of President George W. Bush getting a shoe thrown at him in "protest" while in Iraq.



Keep the material coming, MSNBC.
