DNC reaps a revolt it sowed Years of indoctrinating the young and the gullible on quack science about carbon dioxide has come to haunt. The people who believe the climate change garbage expect Democrats to actually do something about the nonexistent problem. Democrat leaders want to tamp down climate change talk until they seize power in 2021. The toung want to talk about climate change now, now, now. The Mercyry News reported, "SAN FRANCISCO — A Democratic National Committee meeting erupted into a bitter battle Thursday morning over the question of holding a climate-specific presidential debate, with party officials stamping down a resolution calling for a such an event in the face of raucous opposition from activists. "In a 17-to-8 vote, the DNC’s Resolutions Committee defeated a resolution that called for the candidates to debate each other about their views and policies on climate change — on a national stage. "Young protesters filling the room hissed, jeered and sang the union song 'Which Side Are You On?' before and after the vote. "The two-hour-plus debate laid bare tensions in the party between climate activists and party leaders, and a generational divide between the mostly young protesters and the DNC officials." The story said one woman standing on a chair shouted at committee members, "We’re asking you to fight for our futures!" The audience applauded her. Kristy Mualim, 23, of Palo Alto brought her skateboard into the meeting. She told the newspaper, "A lot of the people dismissing the signs of climate change aren’t going to be living long enough to experience the impact of it." She is of the hyry-up-and-die-boomers wing of the Democrat Party. The party does not want a climate change debate on the national stage because it would turn into an auction. Who bids $1 trillion to fight the climate? Do I hear $5 trillion? Do I hear $10 trillion? Going, going, gone. Sold to Bernie for $16 trillion. Just as they avoided any public discussion of gay marriage when Obama ran in 2008 -- even with Proposition 8 on the ballot in California -- Democrats do not wish to let the public know what their plans are for ending private transportation and the like. The spin by the Mercury News was "Party leadership, including DNC chair Tom Perez, is strongly against the idea, insisting it would be unfair to focus a debate on any single issue." If climate change is going to destroy the earth as Democrats have warned us since Al Gore lost the 2000 race, why would this not be the most important issue of all? The extinction of the human race would, logically, be more important than health care or gun control. The party leaders know it is bunk and want the issue to fade away. But most Democrats really believe they can win next year and that when they do, they can just run roughshod over the nation and finally re-establish America as a socialist state. The key though is tamping down the crazies, which is a Herculean task.
