Don't change your lightbulbs just yet.   Instead pay some more taxes and embrace Socialism.

Al Gore admitted he isn't really after that yesterday on Capital Hill.   Competitive Enterprise Institute tells us he dropped the pretense and admitted that what he is after, to solve what he describes as a threat to the existence of humanity, is "steep increases in energy taxes, a cap-and-trade regulatory system that would put rapidly declining limits on greenhouse gas emissions, more restrictive fuel efficiency standards for cars and trucks, a huge federal intervention in the finance market to subsidize more energy efficient houses, a prohibition on new coal-fired power plants unless equipped with expensive carbon sequestration technology, and a vast increase in federal payments to people who cannot afford the steeply higher prices to heat and light their homes."   But don't take their word for it.   Check out this story which notes Gore wants to reduce US greenhouse emissions by 90% in 45 years.   Yes, 90%!   American Daily suggests Gore and his cronies make "Marx and Lenin look conservative."   Even ultra-liberals like the San Francisco Chronicle admit that people listen more intently to price increases (read tax increases) than they do documentaries.   So clearly what Al Gore is after is your wallet.   How about this story suggesting Al Gore wants us to use dimmer lights so he can run around the shadows with his powerful new age buddies without you knowing about it.   Gore is not interested in a few simple steps to save a pittance of energy and, thereby, save the planet.   What he wants is to get your attention so he can implement Socialism.   That's been what the environmentalists have been after all along.   They don;t give a hoot about some owl in the woods nobody has ever seen.   They just want to stop business.   They want government to control everything in our lives.   They lament the fall of the Soviet Union.   They despise America's rise.   They want control, complete control.   They are willing to lie, cheat, steal, and lie some more in order to achieve it.
