Nowadays it seems as if the Left is politicizing everything with a plethora of new taboos. The latest item on their taboo list is your Fourth of July picnic, specifically hot dogs and hamburgers. As you gather with family and friends to munch on those treats fresh off the grill, little did you know that you are destroying the planet according to leftist political orthodoxy. Here is Rebecca Leber of The New Republic as she tries to guilt trip you over hot dog and hamburger carbon emissions:

New taboos about norms.
Norms that extend through millennia.

Let them eat Ribeye! Hot dogs and burgers are for the little kids...
And there is no better time to barbecue that spotted owl you may have in the freezer in the rub or sauce of your choosing (I'm not gonna start the Carolina/Memphis/Texas style barbecue wars).
What’s the point of going on anyway without burgers and dogs? I mean, there are quality of life issues that have to be considered here.
You have won the Internets for the rest of the day!
Why?
It isn't as if they really eat the crap they want the little people to eat.
If you like, I can put together some quick recipes later tonight so you guys can have them tomorrow.

Hot dogs and hamburgers are black if you cook them enough.
I like to think of myself as a smart woman. I got my daughter and her then boyfriend a Big Green Egg for Christmas. They’re tying the knot next June. And my daughter’s future father-in-law has been to BBQ school (whatever that is) so he’s passing along his knowledge. I told them if I’m invited to dinner I’ll buy whatever meat they want.
Please! Your image is inaccurate, everyone knows that tofu should be wrapped in seaweed.
I like it!
Last I checked, the amount of CO2 in our atmosphere is .004%. Yet in Algore’s movie, when he gets on the scissor jack in front of that giant graph, he made it look like the CO2 amount had skyrocketed. Never trust a graph without units.
So, all our emissions will raise it to .00401%?
Get me a burger sammitch!
I’m actually a Fan of Tommy’s Chili Tamale with Extra Tomato and Extra Chili, hold the Pickles, YUMMY!
I have a Tommy’s 15 Minutes away from the House. Now I have to go there this Weekend because you reminded me of them. LOL
There are a million ridiculous things about liberals, but one of the many is that they think hotdogs and hamburgers are bad but pot and sodomy and abortion and sleeping around are good. Let’s compare the related health issues.
Wow, and Please ! And Thank You :)
They have to make a whole new list of do’s and don’t since they have completely banned the one we inherited from the wisdom of the ages. So they obsess over the handling of trash and the eating of certain foods and become hypersensitive to any criticism towards liberals. It is just a classic example of good becomes evil and evil becomes good. They replace old standards with either the opposite or a meaningless substitute, knowing people are hardwired to make judgments of some sort.
No problem. I’ll get it done later tonight. Possibly much later but you’ll have it by morning so there’s still time to pick up ingredients if you want.
I recommend 1/2-inch thick ham steaks - can probably get most grocery stores to cut to spec for free. I’m using Farmland pre-made since it’s easy.
More later.
