They didn’t laugh Ocasio-Cortez out of the room for announcing a plan that included the intention to “upgrade or replace every building in US for state-of-the-art energy efficiency” and to construct “high-speed rail at a scale where air travel stops becoming necessary.” On the contrary, they nodded their heads and signed on. The old commie Bernie and Fauxcahontas are leading the field these days, along with Crazy Joe, and they’re completely behind the Green New Deal. It was this: “Nearly every major Democratic Presidential contender say they back the Green New deal including: Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Jeff Merkeley, Julian Castro, Kirsten Gillibrand, Bernie Sanders, Tulsi Gabbard, and Jay Inslee.” The most unsettling passage of the Green New Deal plan, however, was not the death fatwa on flatulent cows. No ISIS explosives and peace will reign throughout the world.

Get rid of “farting cows”? But now we see how far-seeing the Green New Deal plan really is: no cows, no ISIS explosives.

Who could object? Surely The Rich will cheerfully pony up to support these contemplatives in the manner to which they have become accustomed – and if they don’t, they’ll have to face the consequences with which socialists have always rewarded dissenters.ĪOC’s plan also promised that the United States would become able within the next few years “to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes.” Everyone laughed.

The FAQ provided by Ocasio-Cortez’s office spoke of the United States providing “economic security for all,” including not just those who were “unable,” but also those who were “unwilling” to work. And it certainly seemed well-deserved at the time. “The two cows,” reported the Independent, “were strapped with explosives belts and were heading towards a military checkpoint in Diyala province when Iraqi soldiers opened fire and ‘blew them up.’”ĪOC (D-N.Y.) was buried under an avalanche of ridicule when she unveiled her “ Green New Deal” program.
