By now you've surely seen the story, splashed by Drudge, of Nancy
Pelosi letting a certain nasty little kitten out of the bag with
"Every aspect of our lives must be subject to inventory" in the
fight against Man-made global warming. In China, no less, so talk
about preaching to the choir.
Ms. Pelosi justified her curious priorities of going to
China to talk about that pressing issue -- and
possibly a mutual defense pact against Spectre, the Loch
Ness Monster and Rodin -- at the expense of peripheral
issues like human rights in her trademark say
anything style. She simply asserted that, by hectoring
on global warming -- which all draft international and
domestic enterprises demand that it be mostly the
U.S., with no meaningful sacrifice by world's-largest CO2
emitter China, that's supposed to sacrifice in order to
pretend we're controlling the weather -- she is talking
about human rights. Tell that to the prisoners, ma'am.
Anyway, what you may not have seen yet is the quite relevant
Chapter 6 in
Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Uses Threats, Fraud
and Deception to Keep You Misinformed, "Big Government: How
Government, Politicians, and Alarmists Abuse Power in the Pursuit
of Power". It is there that I detail the greens' wistful
descriptions of China as the kind of system that's necessary to
make their stalled agenda reality.
Which if you think about it is pretty much what Pelosi was really
saying.
