Time to revolt?

I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.
-Will Rogers


Yep, a joke.

What else can you call a government that outlaws plastic bags, bottled water, and microwave popcorn?

All in the name of global warming.

This is, by the way, the same city that was asked, just a few years ago, to provide bottled water in schools, since some of them were providing polluted water to children.

The same government who proposed to tear down a historic viaduct, and replace it with a tunnel that would run through a major ground fault that is overdue for a quake; that runs along a waterfront, where it would require a horrific effort to keep the Pacific ocean out; and would require over 6 acres of trees to mitigate the carbon dioxide produced by the operating systems?

The same government official who would ban guns while using armed guards for personal security, who talks about banning SUVs, and compelling cab companies to use hybrids, while being driven around town in a chauffeured SUV.

The same government official who believes that you and I need to be compelled to ride the bus – but the bus is not workable for his schedule.

The same government who would ban beach fires.

Who among us believes that it is the place or right of any elected official to make these kind of arbitrary pronouncements? And many of them have been done by executive fiat.

Pronouncements by Mayor Greg Nickels. Mayor Moron, in some circles.

A fascist. The worst kind of fascist. One who decides, then makes pronouncements from the seat of power, that we are forced to live with.

And the ultimate insult? Not only does he want to tell us how to live our lives, he refuses to live that way himself.

Come the r3VOLution. Bring it ON!
