		<description>I think the bad behavior and poor choices have always been there, but the frequency seems to be increasing...and now it&#039;s a lot easier to see.  Some of these folks are just tone-deaf, but more of them seem to be completely unaware of how transparent their worlds have become, thanks to the intertubes. 

You hearing me, Tiger?</description>

		<description>I think the saddest part is that I actually expected this kind of thing to happen. Why has bad behavior become the norm, and good behavior is nowhere in sight? Perhaps we live in bizarro world...</description>

		<description>I am beginning to think the global warming outcry is nothing more than a power/wealth grab by the powers that be. I understand the theory, and it makes sense. We emit a massive amount of CO2 which gets trapped in the atmosphere and keeps the earth from releasing the suns rays; thus, the environment is warmed. 

But, the guv is itching for a cap and trade bill, which will raise energy costs for all Americans - a tax in plain English. But, the government gets to make us feel good about ourselves cause we are saving the planet. And, they know they can&#039;t just ask for a tax raise. 

Then, the bankers get to bilk manufacturers and business owners by forcing them to buy opaque derivatives that pay the banks a pretty penny but really don&#039;t do anything to save the planet. It really allows Al Gore to have 10 times the carbon footprint as most Americans without guilt because he purchases a few credits.</description>
