Why Aren't Global Warmists Protesting Against China?
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 09/22/2014 | IBD Staff

Posted on 09/23/2014 5:14:12 AM PDT by IBD editorial writer

Climate: Amid all the hoopla over the "world's largest march against global warming," one question went unasked: Why aren't the protesters carping about the real culprits behind the recent rise in CO2?

It makes no sense. America is a global warming success story, for those who believe in such things. CO2 emissions are on the downtrend in this country. [snip] China is a completely different story.

I like that...”Situational Integrity”.

Describes it perfectly!

I did battle with a lot of these scum (Code Pink, MoveOn, etc) during the last ten years or so when I had a chance to spend time with the DC Chapter of Free Republic (Patriots, all) during many of their Walter Reed and Olney Freeps, as well as the Gathering of Eagles in 2007 and the March on Washington back in 2010.

Plus, living up here in Massachusetts, I see these worthless pieces of crap all the time. I had to drive to work through Concord, MA (Oh the irony) and see the useful idiot anti-war turds marching in a circle with their “War is Not The Answer” signs.

I despise and detest liberalism in ALL of its forms, but it is these mindless, vacuous morons who irritate me the most.

There was a time when I thought they might have been committed pacifists, and I might be able to respect an aspect of that, but I knew I was wrong when Obama was elected and they disappeared from the face of the earth.

For the same reason PETA protests women in furs and not bikers in leathers.

I believe the video of Robert Kennedy Jr not wanting to give up his Chinese products byt blaming everything on the Koch brothers indicates they, the Greenies, have an agenda against Capitalism and not to clean up the environment. Besides they all created tons of greenhouses gasses just to get to the protest. They also had an alternate protest site in front of Wall Street and they tried to shut down trading Monday morning. The Lamestreet press failed to report on it.

Good gosh, that is a great analogy I was grasping for!

Ugh. Detestable ideology.

Because many environmental extremists are also communists.

[ China is filled with Chinese people. It would be racists to protest minorities........ ]

It is soon becoming vogue to be racists against the high suceeding chinese because they are taught not to be lazy in general... At least in Democrat Liberal Academia circles....

No they see china as a Socialist Paradise and that is WHY they won’t wghine about China... they will just redirect china’s climate sin blame to capitalist Japan, South Korea and Taiwan...

So long as China is officially Communist (even if it's really not) it can get away with anything. They could genocide the moslems of Chinese Turkestan and would never even be accused of "islamophobia."

Recall how Kim Jong Eun made racial slurs about Obama and got away with it. Apparently he outranks Obama as an icon of social justice.
