Makes me wonder what “a day in the life” might look like to these people. Couldn’t wake up before dawn since any kind of artificial light might create carbon emissions; Bathe in cold water collected in rain barrels, washing with homemade lye soap; Eat a breakfast of cold vegetables grown in the collective community garden (no bacon allowed since meat contributes to global warming; not sure what they’ll do with all of the cows, pigs, and chickens in the world since PETA won’t allow them to be euthanized); Slip on my khaki coveralls made from hemp (oh wait, hemp is illegal ever since Hearst decided he wanted to continue to cut down trees to make paper) and go out to work all day in the collective garden; Come home and fix a supper of cold vegetables (can’t eat bread because there’s no way to bake it without carbon emissions); Go to bed by dark since artificial light…; Next day, same thing.

Hmm… sounds much like what our 19th century ancestors did. Oh, wait, they ate meat and at least burned wood to keep warm (those evil carbon emitters). So, how, exactly, are we supposed to live and will Congress critters and their cronies live that way, too? Color me doubtful. In the meantime, I’m having steak for supper. How about you?

The Democrats have no interest in building a hundred nuclear power plants. Or even one.

Not one nuclear power plant has been ordered in the US since 1979. The design lifespan of typical reactors is 30-40 years. The US produces 22% of it’s electrical power through nuclear power plants.

Connect some dots if you like.

These people are insane. The most dangerous sociopaths are not the ones animated with anger..they stand out in a crowd..the ones who are true believers and conduct their lives with a focused calmness and sense of destiny are the ones who need to be stopped because they won’t stop themselves nor listen to reason. Like cult members, they just know they are right.

It’s a beautifully direct message.

“Thank goodness they’re already getting poorer. That way it won’t hurt as much when we make ‘em go all the way and revert to living in caves, with their kids functioning as wild animal bait.”

I submit that Sen. Boxer got this idea from lefties in England. On September 30 this year the Telegraph Online opened with the following assertion:

At the moment the UK is committed to cutting greenhouse gases by a third by 2020.

The road to this dubious goal is to be paved by intentional recession. . I'm positive Barbara Boxer isn't smart enough to figure this out so someone on her staff must have read and explained the Telegraph piece to her. With all due respect, Ma'am.

We’ve always known that the dems need to keep people on the down and out in order to maintain their polling headcount, now they’ve found a way to take the whole country along with them.
