Nice work here from my favorite modern Conservative thinker--a thoroughgoing skewering of environmentalism and its ties to/cover for more nefarious movements.
Though population control may be a morally questionable aim, at least over population (unlike global warming) can be substantiated by truly quantifiable figures. And, it would not have the diasterous economic effects of Cap and Trade.
In the end, regardless of our efforts - good or bad - the Environment will defeat us in some form or another. In the conflict of Man against Nature, the latter always wins. We should be respectful, if nothing else.
Speaking to the author's point, the old Czechoslovakia had an industrial area, I think about the size of greater DC, that was (and is) polluted beyond belief. We're talking the real nasty stuff; PCPs, heavy metals etc. The Communists could give a rat's ass about the environment. That's a real good indication to anyone with half a brain that the environmental movement is a lie. It has been high-jacked by leftists, communists and various other Star Wars characters and that's why you'll never hear any criticism of those old Stalinist regimes coming from "environmentalists".
The Blog: A compendium of thoughts on politics, world affairs, economics, pop culture and social issues, from the center right perspective of me a University of Virginia graduate who spent a career in the world's greatest Navy keeping my mouth shut about politics and social issues (ok, publicly keeping it shut). Those days are over! I've also invited a few friends to join in, so pull up a chair and chime in where you will. Keep it clean, civil, concise and relevant.
The Fish: The fish is a "coat of arms" for the blog, symbolizing three formative influences in the life of the blog founder. The first is his experience at the University of Virginia--symbolized most importantly by the fish itself, or a caricature of a "Wahoo", the fish we have acquired as an informal nickname. Additionally there is the sword, the sword of a Cavalier. It is not wielded in a threatening manner, as this is a civil blog. But it is there, should it be needed. Secondly, there is the influence of 21 years in the Navy--symbolized by the anchor on the Wahoo's fin (and again, the sword) . Finally, there is the bowler, tuxedo, and monocle, symbols of a refined, intellectual conservatism, or what I seek to encourage here.
The Policy: I take FULL responsibility ONLY for what I write. I do not take responsibility, nor will I be held responsible, for what my guest bloggers write or for what those who offer comments write. I will occasionally exercise my right to edit/delete both blog posts and comments if they do not meet my view of what clean, civil, concise and relevant mean.

A nice article, agreed.
