Ah, yes. The Watermelons (you know: Green on the
outside, Red on the inside) are at it again. Saving us from ourselves!
How wonderful they are! How thoughtful! How moral! How delightful!
How sick...
The Criminal in Chief, a.k.a., the Prez, signed the “Energy
Independence and Security Act,” a bill with a name that is almost as
big a crock of
scheiße as the Orwellian P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act. (See
here.)
Now all the stupid politicos who erroneously “think” (I use the term
loosely...) that we need a national “energy policy” (as opposed to
having, you know,
individuals decide how and when to use
energy) can sit and break their arms patting themselves on their own
backs. After all, they have finally “done something.” Nothing that will
actually
help, mind you, but, hey. Minor problem.
For all you out there bitching about “high” gas and oil and electricity and food prices, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Those numb-nuts in D.C. are putting a gun to your heads and demanding
that you drive smaller vehicles with higher gas mileage. Don’t trouble
yourself that smaller vehicles lead to more deaths. That the more
efficient product X becomes, the
more its usage increases. Don’t worry that your ride to work or vacation will cost more to purchase.
It’s not about you. It’s about “the environment.”
Those Watermelons who erroneously tell us that they “run the country”
are threatening to put you in jail if you don’t use more ethanol. Don’t
concern yourself with the fact that ethanol creates more air pollution,
uses more energy, and costs more to produce, transport, and use. Don’t
worry about the fact that subsidized farmers live higher on the hog at
your expense as you pay more for your milk, eggs, cereal, chicken, and
meat. Don’t fret that your lifestyle is diminished by law.
It’s not about you. It’s about “the environment.”
Those huge fruits in Washington who don’t mind bankrupting you as they
steal your freedoms are going to punish you for wanting to use
incandescent light bulbs. They are going to force you to use those more
expensive, less visually pleasing, screwy looking fluorescent bulbs.
Don’t dare ask about the mercury that will find its way into our
landfills as billions of these things inundate us. Don’t wonder how you
are supposed to legally clean up broken bulbs that are filled with that
“toxic substance.” Don’t question whether the manufacturers of those
bulbs are getting big wet kisses from their Whores in Washington as
they will now have a captive customer base for a product they can’t
otherwise shove down our throats.
It’s not about you. It’s about “the environment.”
The Watermelon-heads who inform us they know what is good for us better
than we do ourselves aren’t reluctant to coerce you into buying and
using new appliances that meet their arbitrary standards. Don’t get mad
that none of these idiotic measures —
not a single one of them
— will make a rat’s ass bit of difference in “global warming” or those
insipidly labeled, insulting “carbon footprints” we hear so much about.
Don’t disagree with the received wisdom that humans can prevent
“climate change.”
It’s not about you. It’s about “the environment.”
No. Don’t think for yourself. Don’t challenge the Watermelon’s
propaganda. Don’t use reason. Don’t examine history. Don’t doubt the
“good intentions” of the politicians and the Watermelons. Don’t do
anything you are not told to do, don’t believe anything you are not
spoon-fed by complicit mass media, don’t substitute science for faith,
logic for feelings, evidence for assertion.
It’s not about you. It’s about their power over you.
