    Democrat Climate Extremism a Boon to Conservatives
    By Ned Barnett

    If you don't believe me, just ask the Democrats. They're going all in on global warming, believing that — as an issue — climate change will be an election-winning strategy. That's what they say, and apparently, that's what they believe. However, numbers don't lie.

    At a ten-year price tag of more than $93 trillion, the Green New Deal (GND) is a phenomenal budget-buster. Once independent voters and — especially — moderate, blue-collar Democrats realize this, they'll turn away from the GND, as well as from those candidates who support this naked power grab.

    Why? This sweeping legislation is not about saving the planet. No, it's all about the socializing of America, about giving the government control of industry at every level..........

    I'd say you are chirping up the wrong tree ABM. Very few females here.

    The National Review recently reported that the GND, which was proposed early this year by the media darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), head of the "Squad," is now embraced by all front-running Democrat presidential hopefuls, from Biden on down.

    "American Thinker is a daily online magazine dealing with American politics, foreign policy, national security, Israel, economics, diplomacy, culture and military strategy with a conservative viewpoint.
    The magazine has been described as a conservative blog."
    They are winners of zero accolades of excellent journalism.

    The most respected source of such accolades is the Puliter Prize Committee.
    I didn't say so, if you note the quotation marks. The quotation marks mean it was a quote.

    You got crickets because anyone with any sense of sanity didn't even think this idiocy was worth responding to

    The GND is still a socialist con game. Deep down, you know that to be true, Lanny. Go ahead, be honest with yourself.

    It'll all fall apart as the house of cards that it is, though.

    BTW, here's a cool little tool to help calculate the carbon footprint in your home...

    Yeah, and it reinforces your point. Akin to McDonald's burgers, just because you have all those likes, doesn't mean you're the best. Plus, you're the maven of liberalism in here! :mob:
