Normally, I wouldn't give much thought to Greta, but if this gets under the skin of the Whitehouse Halfwit, then I'm all for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The appearance - depending on which side of the isle you stand on - is that the NPP has become more of a community achievement award. I think it used to be much more prestigious, and now it's much. much more political. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what's awesome about it that people keeping falling over themselves to make this girl relevant while at the same time complaining about why she shouldn't be relevant. Yep. Try to imagine telling this guy a year ago "dude, in a year you are going to be covering your car with the image of a climate change protester and telling the world about her."

DJL 232 #291 February 26, 2020 So, here we go with another example of the Conservative/Denier/Right Wing people DOING that thing that they accuse "The Left" of doing yet can never prove beyond accusations. Supposedly Greta is a paid puppet under the control of George Soros or Deep State operatives who with the help of the liberal media pull her strings to get her dancing across the stage. Not to be outdone, The Heartland Institute (a guest who needs no introduction) goes out and hires Ms. Naomi Seibt to be their conservative Greta so they can have someone to go dancing across the stage. https://nypost.com/2020/02/25/conservative-group-hires-german-teen-naomi-seibt-to-rival-greta-thunbergs-climate-views/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're just trying to destroy more childhoods. HOW DARE YOU!! I wish I could find the comic, but the news headline over a picture of Greta was: "World leaders agree that best way to calm child's anxiety is to change global system of trade and commerce."

It is funny that we keep having to have a conversation about the difference between people who are paid to conduct research and people who are paid to say the research is wrong.

No, it's pathetic. But those sorts of people need the false equivalence to maintain their pretense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
