After months of planning, the Peoples Climate March began rolling through a large swath of Midtown Manhattan on Sunday, taking public frustration over stalled efforts to curb carbon emissions to the streets in a noisy, vivid display of unity.
At 11:30 a.m., the march began moving east along 59th Street from Columbus Circle, proceeding along a circuitous, two-mile route, and drawing labor and immigrant groups, students and politicians, scientists and religious leaders. The march will turn south on Avenue of the Americas, head west on 42nd Street to 11th Avenue and finish at 34th Street.
The protest comes two days before a climate summit at the United Nations, which will be attended by President Obama. The meeting is expected to create a framework for a potential global agreement on emissions late next year in Paris.

Everyone of these idiots are first class hypocrites, the clothes they wear, the i phones and electronics they use, the food they eat the cars or bicycles they ride, the pleasures they enjoy all derive from oil. Just goes to show you how the education system has brainwashed these idiots
Thanks for posting.
What does their sign even mean? They are the low info voter personified.
I have "internships" that last a week... Our "lifeskill development program" includes cleaning stalls, digging holes for fenceposts, changing the oil on the Tractor, weeding the garden, laundry, splitting wood, meal preparation, and shovelling snow.
I am interviewing now... so tell all the 25 year-old bisexual moonbat future crazy cat ladies you know to get in their applications and not to forget that they need to include a photo... and a copy of their most recent STD test.
STD test?
Are their organized orgies or something?
Thomas Jefferson described these people more than two hundred years ago:
“Man, once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without rudder, is the sport of every wind. With such persons, gullibility, which they call faith, takes the helm from the hand of reason and the mind becomes a wreck.”
Just returning the favor - thanks to YOU for posting the original.
That sounds great! The moonbats like that who lived out here ran back to the city when Obama ruined the economy and they couldn’t pay others to do stuff the rest of us do for ourselves-the weeding, wood splitting/fetching, cooking, etc-but if you advertise in the SA or Dallas papers, you will probably get plenty of victims-er-customers who will even pay for that week of education-that is what the dude ranches do...
Organized? Unorganized? It's allll good (as long as the test results were clean).
