The DNC's Denver confab has adopted political correctness not seen since George McGovern boycotted grapes. Organizers have strict rules aimed at the "greenest convention in the history of the planet." * No fried foods. Whatsoever. * All meals must include "at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple and white." * At least 70% of foods must be organic and grown locally..........900 recycling enforcers will ensure every scrap of trash goes into the proper bin. But full compliance is proving difficult........demands that 15,000 fanny packs for volunteers be US-made of organic cotton by union labor turns out to be impossible: Such things don't exist.

God help us.
Bill Clinton is requesting that his tofu turkey
plate be garnished with a case of cheese curls.
Unfortunately, plenty of that type already live in Denver. Ditto with the peoples republic of boulder just to the north.
Now we’re bringing in more of these idiots for the convention.
I hope they leave quickly and take some of the Denver ones with them.
Good thing I live far enough out in the burbs to avoid the fallout (I hope)
Spaghetti with marinara sauce, green peppers and onions ... followed by desert of eggyoke coated blueberry pie.
That'll stick ta yer gut! YUM, YUM :)
I may not be politically correct---but I know racism when I see it.....
Besides, what is Jesse Jackson gonna eat? Tell me that why don'tcha?
Poor guy's gonna starve.
one sheet ——with the union label
With a recycling bin for that one sheet (enforced by the 900) .....
Can we say “hoisted by their own petard?”
Fanny packs?
All the Dems EVER think about is THEIR own convenience.
OMG-—when I think of the nasty carbon footprints them Dems are gonna leave. I tell you it’s enough to make me want to hurl.
Somehow I think the nearest McD’s is going to make a fortune!
Ahhhh, but then there'll be food shortages at that McD's, which leads to rationing, which leads to perceived price gouging, which leads to ...... a Congressional investigation
Venison roast (rare), corn on the cob with plenty of butter, served on a white styrofoam plate. Works for me. It's for the planet, baby.

You don't really think the big shots are going to be stuck with that veggie crap, do you?
LOL! Not in a million years. The private receptions at the big hotels will take care of any incipient malnutrition. We wouldn't want the ruling class to starve, would we?
Sadly, they have infested Colorado far beyond Boulder, Denver, or any of the I-25 corridor. When I visited the Four Corners area last year (where I grew up) I was shocked to see how bad the infestation had gotten. Durango is no longer recognizable to me any more, and even some of the smaller surrounding communities are showing signs.
I used to dream of the day when I would be able to move back to Colorado (especially the southwest part of the state), but now I have to say that I don't think I could live there again. Thankfully, I still have my childhood memories.
