Absolving Personal Responsibility

As I see it, one of the primary differences between liberals and conservatives is that a liberal will take every opportunity to shift the blame for their woes from themselves to someone, anyone else. They look around for someone with deep pockets, the evil rich, and see who they can connect, even by the slimmest thread, to their issue. Now, don’t get me wrong on the subject of responsibility. Some businesses and groups have acted in very negligent manners over the years and caused grave harm. Look at the Bhopal Union Carbide incident that killed innocent people or the terrorists that flew planes into buildings killing Americans. It is impossible (although the liberals have tried with the terrorists) to shift the blame to another group.

So I am reading the internet news and what headline do I come across, “California Sues Carmakers.” Well, being in the automobile industry, this peaks my interest. As it turns out, the state of California is suing GM, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda and Nissan for being responsible for global warming. So here is a US state that is taking legal action against the automobile makers of the world for an imaginary issue that is not caused by them. As I have stated before, man causing global warming is like urinating in the ocean causes global flooding. The claim that we are increasing greenhouse gasses is absurd when you realize that water the largest component of the greenhouse gas composition by an exponential factor. The sun drives that bus as it is responsible for heating and cooling the Earth.

So let’s back up. California is suing the top six global automakers for being responsible for global warming. They make the cars and sell them. I do not see them twisting anyone’s arm to drive them. Well, maybe not the Japanese car makers because they do not have to use incentives to get their cars off the lots. If they made them and no one bought them, there would be no cars on the road and no emissions from those cars. It is the people driving the cars that burn the fuel that the environmentalist whackos claim is melting ice caps and causing hurricanes. So the state of California has once again jumped the shark. I guess they do it so much it is normal for them. The state has become so liberal that they have absolved anyone of being responsible for any act done by them. Just look at OJ Simpson. He is still out looking for the killer of his ex-wife. Since he has not grown a beard, I would think that he sees him in the mirror at least once a day.
