The Telegraph reports that climate conference delegates will be well looked after in Copenhagen:
…Outraged by a council postcard urging delegates to “be sustainable, don’t buy sex,” the local sex workers’ union – they have unions here – has announced that all its 1,400 members will give free intercourse to anyone with a climate conference delegate’s pass. The term “carbon dating” just took on an entirely new meaning.
At least the sex will be C02-neutral...
Well, I suppose that would depend on condom usage and reliability.

Climate change: Life and death or cash grab? – Lorrie Goldstein:
…What will happen, based on real-world experience, is Big Business will make even more money — from us — without helping the environment.
That’s why major U.S. money houses that triggered the global recession with irresponsible lending practices — and who then received hundreds of billions of tax dollars in government bailouts — are lobbying fiercely for global cap-and-trade.
They know they will make a fortune brokering carbon trading, at least before the speculative bubbles burst yet again, costing millions more jobs.
As we prepare to endure 12 days of misleading rhetoric, painful self-righteousness and Canada-bashing in Copenhagen, remember this.
The biggest corporate backer of Kyoto in the U.S., which lobbied incessantly in favour of carbon-trading because it saw an easy way to make a killing was … Enron.
Ring any bells?

I wouldn’t want to go there sometime later and rent one of those 1000′s of limos they are using for the conference. Ick.
It’s rather fitting, I think, since it’s symbolic of who’s doing the screwing around here.
Is Tiger going to be there.
This story come out last week and it is amazing how many comments were on a lib blog denying it.
Next we will be hearing about all the free condoms at the olympics.
OT, but I hope those idiots on the roof get a huge fine/jail sentence. Too bad there wasn’t a lot of global warming falling in Ottawa.
Layton was behind the outburst in the HofC a few weeks ago, and somebody had to help them get in. Will Ujaal ask those who know to come forward.
Adrian – Except we’re the ones that will get screwed if Canada gives into the pressure!!
Is Tiger going to be there?
Maybe he heard about the free sex. How could he stay away?
What is going on with liberals across Canada. Just more evidence that they think they are entitled. 3 stories at NNW re charges against liberal senator & ex ministers. Then we have the guy in Quebec going to jail.
And they and the media think they are fit to run Canada.
Tough to be Tiger with so many affordable distractions out there.
A billionaire at thirty three…what can one do for an encore ‘cept give it away and start again.
Typical lefties, eh? Want, and somehow usually end up getting, everything for free.
They’re not all lefties. A lot of smart people are making billions off the trading scams:

Hey Al Gore is one of them. He may be one of the greatest geniuses of the past 20 years. Billionaire through collusion with government to buy his green technologies.
Simon, Tiger better not give it all away, he’ll sure as hell never make that kind of money again, he won’t get the endorsements and he’s past his prime. He’s taken himself from a respected human being to pure scum. He’s a sham,been living a lie, his life was a facade. This may seem like a tirade, it is. He let down a lot of people around the world besides his own wife and little kids.
Al gore will travel on his own:

What’s with that pathetic so-called leader of the Liberals? He’s ranting on about Taliban prisoner abuse going back in history on a case that’s been dealt with and nothing more to say, no blame can be laid, no proof of any wrongdoing on the part of Canadian forces or the government.
Did anyone ever think the Liberals could sink so low? Did anyone ever think they’d be so bankrupt for issues they’d slander our troops to try to get at the Conservative government?
Every time a large group of socialists get together, there is a lot of screwing going on.
If the prostitutes have “free sex” for all those delegates at the Golbal Warming Hysteria Festival, will the delegates be suitable grateful and leave a tip for the sex workers? Will a 15% per diem suffice? Cheers.
Congrats for winning the first fossil award, 11 more to go. Remember how Catholics were teased and ridiculed for no meat on Friday. Well McCartney now wants meatless Mondays.
Shouldn’t Catholics be exempt, for the 100s of years they didn’t eat meat one day a week.
I wonder if certain lifestyles can claim discrimination re free sex workers. Seems they are all women, for the men and maybe women. But what about the gay/lesbian crowd, and straigt women, will they be serviced for free also.
Read the comments on the article re Lorrie should be happy.
Do these people have any idea of how their lives would change for the worse if we went back to pre 1990 levels of co2.
However, I still advocate for no Alberta oil money be used for transfer or equalization pymts. Can’t contaminate all those greenies, let them do without.
Wouldn’t it be considered child abuse to take away all their computers, cell phones, i-pods, and all the other gadgets they just have to have.
And how about all the appliances and gadgets in their homes. And why have so many flown to Denmark to protest co2, did they pay for the credits.
‘Did anyone ever think they’d be so bankrupt for issues they’d slander our troops to try to get at the Conservative government?’

Remember Paul Martin’s attack ad, Soldiers in our Streets?
Wilson, the answer is yes, followed by yes.
Another “scandal” falls by the wayside.
I predict that Canada will win all 12 fossil awards.
I sense a concerted effort by AGW freaks and envirotards to make an example out of us.
…if they can resist the temptation to slam Australians with a couple for daring to smoke ETS legislation, that is.
Ah yes MaryT Paul McCartney and his veggie mondays, when he recieved his O.B.E. from the Queen he noticed that some Army officers were also recieving the O.B.E. He was somewhat miffed because in his view they “had recieved theirs for shooting people” he felt as he had recieved his for singing and entertaining and felt that he was much more deserving. Personaly I don’t care if Paul sings, dances or marries every one legged goldigger in Britan. I would like him to just shut his sanctimonus little pie-hole about our affairs and just sing he is very good at that. He should be profundly grateful that far rougher men and women then him put their lives on the line so he can sleep well in his many mansions.
Alberta already has a carbon trading policy (cap and trade),
but all the money is traded in Alberta only.
Has the EU taped out all of their rich folks and need to expand their Ponzi scheme?
China, India, USA, Norway,Venezuela Africa Brazil etc where oil eploration is on the go and coal generating plants are in full gear. Not one of them got ‘fossil award. only canada.
To hell with it, if no other countries are going to reduce their pollution why in the hell must we be the only one.
Let the liberals bring what they first created signing onto KYOTO. By then, ALBERTA has moved into their own nation together with SASK and we will handle our own affairs.
I do not know if any of you saw the prime minister speak in English at the assembly in Korea. I saw him on OMNI television and even though the reporting was in chinese; it didn’t bothered me.
If the idiots who spew hatred about the ‘tar’ sands and the ‘big oil’ industry took the time to actually research what these companies are doing to protect the environment, they would find out that they already have in place numerous enviromental policies. They would discover that Alberta companies are actually one of the cleanest industries around.
I’d like to know how come Alberta is the whipping boy….what about the oil in Texas and the middle east….how come they don’t get the focus.
That’s right AG, in fact alberta is greener than the rest of canada. we have done more for the environment than any other province.
Strikes me that the sex wouldn’t be CO2 neutral unless everyone refrained from any and all heavy breathing.
Alberta Lyle, I have spent the evening trying to come up with a colorful witticism as the subjest is just to ripe to ignore the challenge……, you stole it!! ( my story and I’m sticking to it)
Great job…very, very good! lol
I’m proud to be a FOSSIL! Go Canada! We may be fossils but we’re economically sound…how about the rest of them?
“sex wouldn’t be CO2 neutral unless everyone refrained from any and all heavy breathing.”
Hilarious A.L.!
Yes, I think Alberta Lyle wins the prize. Just not sure what the prize is.
The EPA in the USA has ruled that co2 is dangerous to your health. I think all those in cemetaries are there because they had no co2 to expell.
If all those in Denmark kept their mouth closed, think of the co2 not emitted into our air.
And why didn’t those idiots on the roof of parliament have to get down the same way they got up, without the cost of emergency people coming to save them. Do they know how much carbon was emitted by those trucks.
Put them in jail for 3 yrs, minimum, instead of treating them with kid gloves. They could have been planting bombs.
Who let them in the bldg.
“the local sex workers’ union – they have unions here – has announced that all its 1,400 members will give free intercourse to anyone with a climate conference delegate’s pass.”
What would you expect for a bunch of pricks!! At that, I wonder if they are even capable!!
A just released WWF report, available at cbc, says buying green can be dangerous to the environment.
Apparently, Al Gore has met with President Obama. That’s it!! Talk about the world getting screwed!! Will Canada stand alone??
http://www.ecorazzi.com/2009/12/07/al-gore-the-world-has-arrived-at-a-moment-of-decision/

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublespeak
“Doublespeak (sometimes called doubletalk) is language constructed to disguise or distort its actual meaning, often resulting in a communication bypass. Doublespeak may take the form of euphemisms (e.g., “downsizing” for layoffs) or deliberate ambiguity.”
The global warming alarmists are engaging in incessant doublespeak!! We are even hearing it on PBS!! Talk about manipulation of the masses!!
Bring on the mass hysteria that causes people to react without thinking. Provoke and stimulate the crowd mentality to the detriment of the thinking individual!!
The warmists say we can trust the global temperature record from HadCRU because it agrees with other temperature records. Here is an example of the wonderful adjustments that one of them makes to temperature records in northern Australia. http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/12/08/the-smoking-gun-at-darwin-zero/#more-13818s.
I agree, Bubba…. Former Beatle Paul should stick to his singing and not do so much of the Lennonism, until he takes his Wings to our Father’s House where there are many mansions and eternal security. As for this something-is-rotten in Copenhagen fiasco, what next? I don’t think their sexual workers’ freebie prostitutie package is the proper approach for global outreach and will do nothing to lessen the heat. It’s just another example of the absurdity and primitive nature of the human race and another reason why extinction would be justified.
Jets, private jets,limos driven in from other countries to give the plush bottomed global warmists a smooth ride, foods from around the world to give them strength and sustenance to enjoy the ladies of the night. Oh the hypocrisy.
Our PM should stay home in protest using the excuse he cannot increase his carbon footprint further for this period. They can send him his fossil by freighter.
How did we get to this silly state? What would Archimedes think about ice melting causing oceans to rise?

“Hudson Bay jail upgraded for wayward polar bears
Cnews ^ | December 8, 2009 | Canadian Press
WINNIPEG — Manitoba is spending more money to upgrade a polar bear jail in Churchill. Conservation Minister Bill Blaikie says the province is spending $105,000 to improve the jail’s walls and main entrance.
The compound is used to house wayward polar bears that get too close to the town or return to the community after being scared away.”
On another note, Hitchens has a column in the Post on Sarah Palin: “Known by the company she keeps”. That’s fine but here’s the kicker: “Sarah Palin has become an empty-headed echo chamber for the right’s rumor-mongers and freaks”. Who among us should take offense? She hasn’t become anything, she’s been painted by the Leftist freaks.
The media can’t seem to get off her back,they seem to be very worried about her every move.
If she’s a nobody,with no future in politics as they’ve made her out to be, why the overkill?
Could it be the Left are afraid the people might make up their own minds and it might not be in sinc with theirs?
Have to wonder how she’d be doing if she were a Democrat?
Swift, I checked out that link. Thanks. It’s a bit too technical for me but this part stands out:
The story is easy to understand. The actual temperature readings do not fit the AGW story. At least before the adjustments. The original climate station at Darwin, station 0, gets ab adjustment equivalent to 5.9 degrees temperature rise per century from 1941 to its closure in the nineties. Two other stations, that match the temperature record of station 0, were also adjusted, but in completely different ways. A legitimate adjustment would treat all these stations exactly the same. There is nothing tn the record that gives any indication that any adjustment needs to be made after 1941. The last graph shows the adjustments made to station 0, solely to provide a false warming trend. Nothing about this adjustment
{the black line} does anything other than provide a false warming trend to fit the AGW story.
Well you’re swifter than I am when it comes to numbers & science my friend.
Thanks for the dumbed-down version.
How long will it take for Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth” to become Global Warming Fables?
CTV this morning had a climate denier on who explained the case against AGW and for Climategate. The host stll doesn’t get it but at least they had the “otherside” on, this after a week of Hopenhaven stories.
As long as Canada keeps getting Fossil awards, we know our government is not caught up in the hype….
Quebec logic:
Charest sets highest ghg’s reduction targets in North America,
Quebecers blame Alberta for the ‘sacrifices’ they will have to make re: Charest’s ghg targets.
Quebecers always see themselves as the victim of the ROC!
Perhaps we should suggest Quebec not receive any benefits from Alberta’s oil sands. Maybe they could fly on their own with instead of sucking from Alberta as a have-not province. It’s easy for Quebec to set the highest targets given their clean hydro energy. Who’s the victim?
I’ve never been so concerned! This climate change fiasco is outrageous. Thank goodness for the intelligent, well-informed, insightful posters on this blog.
It appears the Opposition are staying on the Taliban abuse thing. Perhaps they need to have their arses dragged to an election on that issue if it’s that critical, that serious. After all, they’re accusing the Conservative government of ignoring reports of torture, that’s serious enough to ask the people.
