U.S. pumping out the CO2

etech · Feb 15, 2003

It appears that all of the people saying that the US is helping to pump CO2 into the atmosphere were right.

This has happened elsewhere as well.

This was one of the most amazing natural phenomena I know of. You would never know what hit you.

A similar venting operation began two years ago at another site - Lake Nyos, where a gas cloud killed more than 1,700 people in 1986.

The three-year $400,000 project to ensure the lakes are made safe for local people is being funded by the US and Cameroon.

Looks like the US is imposing it's will on another country again.

The US should be more like France and Germany and mind it's own business.

Eh, nothing a bean-o the size of a volkswagen won't solve.

And to think if the Republicans had there way we wouldn't have any foreign aid.

This is just going to encourage those nasty black people to rely on the nanny state and become socialists.

God I'm so damn proud of my country when I can forget for a minute the government raped me for the money to do this.

Isn't Cameroon on the UN Security Council right now? I wonder if that has anything to do with this.

How much in taxes do CLOWNS really pay?????

Tominator-

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHA

Moonbeam · Feb 15, 2003

I called to find out, MAX, but they told me your tax records were personal and private, so I really don't know.

Of course this makes you feel good Moonie: You get to do nothing and yet feel proud while the rich get to pay for it. It's a win/win for you, ain't it?

Isn't that methane?

Scarpozzi · Feb 15, 2003

I pump out CO2 of my own sometimes, but if anyone ever tries to siphon it out of me with a big pipe, there WILL be an @ss-whoopin'!

Moonbeam · Feb 16, 2003

Loose your thinking cap, Corn?

Of course not Moonie, your artificial sarcasm does not mask your feelings regarding our government's charitable responsibilities: We're supposed to working more to make a world where everyone can live well and we are better admired.

Moonie, we all know that you are truth challenged but spreading lies does not help what ever cause you are behind.

Yes, Cameroon is. Good catch. However, correlation does not necessarily equal causation.

Moonbeam · Feb 16, 2003

Corn, hehe, maybe if you didn't assume you knew how much tax I paid and addressed your comments to an issue like who supports foreign aid and who doesn't I wouldn't have to point out that you're not clairvoyant and not using your head.

etech, you're welcome to point out the lie. That would lend support to the notion it's not you who is lying.

No. Started a long time ago at the lake that killed so many people. this is just a continuation.

Of course were Americans though and only do it for selfish reasons. So we MUST be getting somethign out of it right?!?!?

Edit: Forget to say. France and Japan were also involed in the project.

"And to think if the Republicans had there way we wouldn't have any foreign aid. "

Powell Reveals $43 Million in New Aid to Afghans 17 May 2001

That's just one example. You say that if the Republicans had there way we wouldn't have any foreign aid. That's a lie. You lied, you are a liar.

Clear enough for you?

How this for clairvoyance: The only way you would be paying a tax bill in excess of 5 figures is if your money was inherited.

You are free to prove me wrong, of course. I might even believe you if you just told me you tax bill; however given the consistant dishonesty in your behavior, I'm probably not going to be so inclined...

We all know where you stand with regard to our government's role in foriegn aid, specifically what is, and is not acceptable. What would be the point in addressing that with you? Obviously, as etech pointed out, your words with regard to how Republicans view foriegn aid are simply the result of either ignorance or dishonesty.

I'm hardly going to waste any real effort debunking your partisan drivel. Perhaps if you were to present an honest argument I might reconsider.......I'm not going to hold my breath though.

Yep, but you don't actually belive that Moonie will be shamed by his own dishonesty do you?

etech · Feb 17, 2003

Corn, I learned long ago not to expect honesty from moonie.

I orginally posted the article because I found it ironic. The US and other countries are helping Cameroon pump CO2 into the atomoshpere to save lives.

Does anyone want to speculate why there isn't more of a drive to put out the coal fires that are burning around the world and are pumping such great amounts of CO2 into the world? Was that aspect even addressed in the flawed Kyoto treaty?
