Over at LP.org, Donny Ferguson shows us another example of hypocrisy…

Even though Obama proposes job-destroying tax hikes on employers who emit carbon dioxide, the Institute for Liberty reports his $170 million inauguration had a total “carbon footprint” of 575,000,000 pounds.

According to the EPA, the average American coal-fired power plant produces 10,237,509,070 pounds of CO2 per year. That’s 112,191,880 pounds of CO2 every four days.

Compare that 112,191,880 pounds of CO2 produced by a job-and-energy producing power plant in four days with the 575,000,000 pounds of CO2 produced by Obama, who promised on the campaign trail to “bankrupt the coal industry,” and his supporters.

Yep, Barack Obama’s $170 million inaugural gala was five times “dirtier” than one of the coal-powered energy plants he promises to bankrupt.
