Gov. Jerry Brown takes Trump fight to Vatican, says world needs a ‘brainwashing’ on climate change
Washington Times ^ | 11/6/2017 | Jessica Chasmar

California Gov. Jerry Brown took the anti-Trump resistance to the Vatican over the weekend, declaring that the world is in need of a so-called “brainwashing” on climate change.

In an appearance Saturday at an event organized by the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Mr. Brown assured leaders that the “Trump factor” on climate change is minimal compared to the efforts taking place worldwide, but that it’s not the only problem fueling delusions on the climate threat, The Sacramento Beereported.

“The Trump factor is very small, very small indeed,” the Democratic governor, who has been a vocal opponent of the president’s actions on climate change, said to applause. “That’s nothing to cheer about, because if it was only Trump that was a problem, we’d have it solved. But that’s not our only problem.

“The problem … is us,” he continued, The Bee reported. “It’s our whole way of life. It’s our comfort … It’s the greed. It’s the indulgence. It’s the pattern. And it’s the inertia.

“At the highest circles, people still don’t get it,” he said. “It’s not just a light rinse” that’s needed. “We need a total, I might say ‘brainwashing.’ “We need to wash our brains out and see a very different kind of world,” he said.

Brown would do the world a favor if he jumped into the California fire of his choice.

I have often said that if you simply listen to what liberals say, they will tell you exactly what they are thinking.

As tiresome as that is, I have found it to be true. They can’t help themselves.

In this case, if they had their way, they would not only be tyrants and force it down our throats, but would wish to brainwash us too, so there can not even be any mental deviation from their liberal orthodoxy.

And people shouldn’t make the mistake it is only Jerry Brown who feels this way.

Orwell’s “1984” was supposed to be a warning, not an instructional manual, as it seems to be for the Left.

Brown PANDERS to the Catholic Hispanic community. If he held any Christian values he would not be so quick to support gay marriage, LGBT rights, abortion....the list goes on...

Since there’s no evidence of warming and every single climate alarmist prediction has been wrong.

I have always said they project onto others what they themselves are doing, because they cannot believe others do not see life as they do.

They are unable to do the moral good for the sake of doing good. This is why we find ourselves being legislated to death by them. They look into their own hearts and see evil and cannot see the ‘Grace’ in others.

When they left God as a myth, evil rushed in. God gives freewill, evil demands control. A people must be free in order to thrive, live, and prosper. Take away that freedom and the civilization dies. It is the principle on which our nation was founded.

Isn't California that strange state that restricts car emissions to the ‘crazy point’ but makes NO EFFORT to solve the ‘fire burns millions of acres’ problem?

Those folks are nuts.
