Label-Change: Less talk about emissions, more talk about pollution

I don't know how we started getting hung up on "emissions." "Capping emissions." That's too effeminate to really ring true with Red America. That's like "going on a diet." Like "cutting back on carbs" or what not. Going "green" is like going vegetarian. Sorry, not going to fly. Here's what you say:

"Mr. Limbaugh (or Mr. O'Reilly, or Mr. Hannity, whatever), I'm a libertarian, and have been for years, even before it became popular recently. And what I really hate is when people infringe on my right to breathe clean air and drink clean water by polluting it. I believe that everybody should be free to do whatever they want so as it doesn't infringe on the freedoms of others. I believe in the campsite principle. You know the campsite principle? Leave the place better off than when you found it."
