The new age puritans!

Devotee of the religion of Global Warming Bill McKibben was on NPR last week touting his book, Deep Economy. Loony tunes! The listeners calling in were all members of the cult. The strange thing is that these moon bats are totally oblivious to the fact that they are so weird and different than the average American. They really think they can win everyone over to their side by insulting the general population. It's the old Puritan stigma routine. Precious Bane. Carbon credits= sin eating. Waxing on about the benefits of buying locally, they treated us to diatribes of the evils perpetrated by average Americans. One caller said, "I can't believe all the people that drive around in pick-up trucks with nothing in the back!" Evil Americans, so selfish and thoughtless.

Of course these liberals are the very same people that will not make a value judgment against people that saw other people's heads off. Who do you think these pantywaist liberal do gooders call when they need someone to help them move? Their friend with the empty pick-up truck that's who!

Many of the callers touted Europe as the be all and end all of the universe. Europeans eat and think locally, yada yada. Europeans are community oriented, Americans need to get that back. Europeans are so all fired superior.

May I suggest to these ignorant twits that America was founded by individualistic people who left Europe for a good reason. European culture is homogeneous and smothering. Americans have always been different. We are not community oriented its true, because our genetic makeup precludes it. We were founded by people who thought differently and we are very successful as a culture, while Europe is a stagnant pool of lazy useless old farts.

Many people who share European values live here in the San Francisco Bay Area. This is a microcosm of like minded individuals who left their home states because they did not fit in with the rest of the population. It is not a very successful experiment either. Bad social problems abound.

If they can not tolerate knowing that others who inhabit the same country have different world views, may I suggest that the people who don't care for American and Americans, go back to Europe where they may live among those exactly like themselves. So much for diversity.

Liberals are so effing uptight and silly its just not funny any more. They are attacking our regular everyday actions with a religious zeal. Use the wrong grocery bag and you are a bad, bad person. They do not want anyone to deviate from proscribed actions which are determined by a small elite group. It's Salem(really Danvers) Massachusetts all over again.
