Liberal Petition Asks to Rename Hurricane Irma After Ivanka Trump
Life News ^ | Sept, 8, 2017 | Christine Rousselle

Hurricane names are set years in advance, and are only taken out of circulation if they’re particularly devastating. The names alternate boy/girl and start with the letter A and end with Z. This week, Hurricane Irma is going to make landfall in Florida, and while the impact is yet to be seen, it’s not looking good.

So, naturally, over 8,000 people have signed a petition asking for Hurricane Irma to be re-named “Hurricane Ivanka” after President Donald Trump’s eldest daughter. Ivanka is accued of being “complicit in the destruction” the nation faces due to the Trump administration’s climate policy. By changing the name, the petition argues, the Trump administration will be pressured into taking a stand on preventing climate change and other future storms.

Unfortunately, the Trump administration is on a fast track setting climate progress back, which will only exacerbate the effect of future storms. By packing the administration with climate change deniers, withdrawing from the Paris climate accords, dismantling a federal advisory committee on climate change, and dealing blow after blow to the scientific community, the Trump administration has shown that it is completely irresponsible when it comes to climate change.

Even Ivanka Trump, who promised to try to influence her father on certain issues like climate change, has quietly accepted the administration’s lack of action on this very serious issue. Ivanka Trump can say what she wants about climate change, but as long as she quietly stands back, she remains complicit in the destruction we all face at the hands of her father’s administration.

That’s why we’re petitioning the World Meteorological Association to rename Hurricane Irma to Hurricane Ivanka. We need to put pressure on members of Trump’s administration to take real a stand for the health and safety of our world and generations to come.

While there’s about a zero percent chance the name will actually be changed to Ivanka, the petition has gotten some high-profile notice. Actor George Takei said that it’d be “wrong” to name Irma after Ivanka, because Ivanka is “weak, powerless & ineffective.”

(Good news: Sexism is apparently funny now.)

For all of our readers in Hurricane Irma’s path: please stay safe.

Liberals are incoherent, it’s tough then for them to state any ideas that will resonate at the polls.

Let’s name the New York sewer system after Hillary.

When it finally flows into a waste treatment plant, we can call that “What Happened.”

I agree almost 100%, except that I think Hillary is so important to the history of destruction of the United States that I think all hurricanes forever after should be named “Hillary” and numbered sequentially. So this year, we would be looking at Hillary 1 in Houston and Hillary 2 in Miami, and so forth. Say we get three named storms this year, then next year we start with Hillary 4.

Another confusing post-—is the author (from LIFE NEWS, no less!) the one making this idiot climate change comments, or is she clumsily quoting without direct attribution, the words of the “petitioners”?

We are really blessed with today’s progressives.
Think about it.
They have come so far out of the closet that even opening their septic mouths is akin to porn.
They have revealed their inability to think, total lack of morals, a laughable education in nothingness for which they or (most probably) their parents have thrown money into the septic tank.
And, they will be prime meat for the guillotine following Revolution II.
Beware progs, we are slow to anger, but when we return your insults, it will be with mucho interest.
Sleep light, we will come.

Hilary - one 'l' - is on the cyclone list for this year. That'll have to do.

I found it confusing initially as well.

I'd guess that in the original article, the petition's language was displayed as an indented (guoted) paragraph (or some such formatting), but that when Morgana pasted it into the thread, that formatting was lost and it all ran together.
