Warren: Green New Deal Doesn't Go 'Far Enough'(WARPATH ALERT!)

The Green New Deal promised a “massive transformation of our society,” with goals that include eliminating air travel, cars, fossil fuels, and nuclear energy, as well as retrofitting every building in America to be energy efficient. While most sane people understood the plan was a fantasy, albeit a dangerous one, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Thursday she doesn’t believe the $93 trillion proposal goes far enough.

“What I want to see us do is get off an oil economy, and not only for ourselves, but for the rest of the world,” Warren said during a CNN town hall event.

“I want to see us move entirely to green, and let me say on this, I not only support a Green New Deal, I don’t think it goes far enough,” she added. “I also have a blue new deal cause we have got to be thinking about our oceans as well that we need to protect.”

It was reported she said this about the Green New Deal right after she got off her private jetliner. She has no shame.

Hypocrite is too nice of a word. She and the rest of them downright evil.

Slow on the uptake were you? LOL! As long as the realization happened, I’m glad for that.

Nah, it was a loaner. In their eyes that means they are not guilty of adding to the pollution. Liblogic 101. Someone else’s problem.

I just got my Arizona mail ballot yesterday. Bloomberg was on it but I filled in Sanders. America needs a socialism verses capitalism debate because too many Americans don’t know how evil socialism is. Plus I figure Sanders will hurt all the down ballot choices as well.

I wasn't slow. Just pointing out the obvious to others who may not have read it. 😂

Well, I suppose if you're polluting with someone else's plane then you can't be held responsible. Sounds just like liberal logic.

Maybe her campaign paid some carbon credits to circumvent the problem. 😁

I agree. They are evil. That is why I don’t buy it when people blather about getting along with these people. Every day they wake up thinking of how they can deprive us of our rights and steal our money. There is no compromise with that.
