Yes, it's Climate Change, the mack-daddy of teh Burning Stoopid for two-plus decades now, and as the cherry on top, it's from one of the most prominent members of teh Stoopid in Congress, Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-Crazytown). Well, OK, Berkeley and Oakland, but it's the same thing. . .
Yes, this is the very same political genius that said: "I Am Convinced That Military Action Will Not Prevent Further Acts Of International Terrorism Against The United States." (Eddy Ramirez, "Calif. Congresswoman Alone In Vote Against War Powers Resolution," (University Of California- Berkeley) Daily Californian, 9/17/01)
And what brilliance does she share with us today ? Simple: Global Warming will force women into prostitution.
Yep. It's a matter of public record. House Concurrent Resolution 36, 113th Congress, April 26, 2013. To wit:
Whereas women will disproportionately face harmful impacts from climate change, particularly in poor and developing nations where women regularly assume increased responsibility for growing the family's food and collecting water, fuel, and other resources;
Whereas epidemics, such as malaria, are expected to worsen and spread due to variations in climate, putting women and children without access to prevention and medical services at risk;
Whereas food insecure women with limited socioeconomic resources may be vulnerable to situations such as sex work, transactional sex, and early marriage that put them at risk for HIV, STIs, unplanned pregnancy, and poor reproductive health;
Wow. Global Warming will pimp our wimmenfolk. Climate Change, is there ANYTHING it can't do ???
But it gets better. . . when you look at the OTHER supporters, who similarly care about Mother Earth. Introducing Rep. Hank Johnson of Georgia. In fact, he's so concerned about Overpopulation, that the Island of Guam will tip over and capsize. . . .
And all of this is especially amusing, as the planet has been on a cooling trend for the past 4-10 years (depending who reports. . ), no actual evidence of "global warming" has been found since ~1998, and it looks like we're headed into a Mini Ice Age. Heck, we can USE teh Burning Stoopid, to stay warm. . .

But that's not all: today was a bumper crop of Runner's up. . .
And what IS it about the Bay Area ??
San Francisco's City Attorney and Monster Energy are battling over. . . Monster's right to sell and advertise a perfectly legal product. . . And apparently New York is doing too. . . not sure if it's because of the sheer size of a Monster Energy, or that you don't need 32 ounces to stay awake. . . .
And Terrorism, after the Boston Marathon Bombing, is REALLY delivering for the Stoopid. . .
At the University of Georgia's commencement, you need credentials to have a camera, and no backpacks are allowed, in fact, no bags over a cubic foot. . . .
Of course, you COULD simply search for Assault Pressure Cookers. . .
. . . .but not in Miami. Students in Dade County, Florida, have eagerly signed a petition to ban local stores from selling pressure cookers. . .
But, for overall idiocy, we need to come back to my home turf, Disneyland on the Potomac, our Nation's Capitol. . . .
. . . . where a City Councilman has introduced a resolution to the DC City Council to change the team's name from the Washington Redskins, to the Washington Redtails.

What makes this especially amusing, is that the Skins have their headquarters in Ashburn, Virginia, and play in Landover, Maryland. . . .So they're not even IN DC, and haven't been since 1997 or so, when FedEx field opened.
And why, do you ask ? Because SOME people find the name offensive. Well. . .guess what. There is exactly ZERO right to not be offended. Suck it up, people. . . because this is just another example of. . . . teh Burning Stoopid. . . .
Someone needs to invent FTL so I can leave this place.
ReplyDelete. . .except then, Liberals will claim that your high-capacity, assault sport utility starship is contributing to Galactic Warming. . . .and that your space-suit was made in the slave sweatshops of the Lesser Magellanic Cloud. . .
