Like so many on the soft-headed left, James Jay Lee just wanted to save the planet. So, he stormed into the Discovery Channel television headquarters in Silver Spring, Maryland, took three hostages at gunpoint and demanded that the cable network produce environmental documentaries showing that, “Saving the Planet means saving what’s left of the non-human Wildlife by decreasing the Human population.” A Montgomery County SWAT sharpshooter helped to bring Lee's dream alive by shooting him dead, reducing the world’s human population by one. It’s a start.
The hostage situation in Silver Spring is something of a morality play. The mouth-breathers of the environmental movement would love nothing better than to take us all hostage. They may not have the ability to save the planet (not that it’s under any real threat), but they are trying like the dickens to take it hostage. First came the Kyoto Treaty. Now the Copenhagen Treaty, with Obama’s impending Cap-and-Trade legislation to help fund a UN administered global wealth redistribution scheme.
In the end, it’s an exercise in futility at best and self-destructive at worst. That is why this November’s elections are so important. With two years left in our one-term president’s tenure in office, voters need to send genuine opposition representatives to Washington to curb the wild-eyed enthusiasm of Obama and his environmental policies before they dash all hope for America’s economic recovery.
To put it in perspective, think of James Jay Lee as the personification of Cap-and-Trade, and the Tea Party as the Montgomery County SWAT team.
