In her first few years as a climate scientist…
“I have been a climate scientist for decades and decades,” Jane Fonda crowed as she was arrested last weekend in a “climate protest” (https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/oct/14/jane-fonda-ive-been-climate-scientist-decades-and-/?utm_source=Boomtrain&utm_medium=manual&utm_campaign=20180326&utm_term=newsalert&utm_content=newsalert&bt_ee=bCXOY8fbWWQpTfL4KmTajYzq69DCeFUq3xVaiGe3mfN3aY). By “scientist” she means “one who mindlessly parrots things that she thinks sound smart.”
Anyway, the silly old fart said she was inspired in her recent “activism” by the little scold from Sweden whom the world’s leaders insist on bowing down to: “this little Swedish girl,” prated Fonda, “holding her sign every Friday in front of the Swedish parliament… and all the student strikers all over the world who have really risked a lot and given up a lot in order to say, wake up, old people, how come you’re not standing with us?”
What have student strikers “risked”? What have they “given up”? And what does Jane Fonda herself plan to give up?
Uh… nothing? That’s right–nothing.
All of a sudden the in thing, for rich and famous leftids, is to subordinate themselves to children. You’d think they’d be embarrassed to have children speak for them; but shame itself is too ashamed to hang out with liberals.
50,000 Comments–and We Have a Winner!
Byron the Quokka here, to announce the winner of our milestone once-in-a-lifetime comment contest! The winner, the reader who posted No. 50,000, which will never happen again, is….trumpets, please!
“Evreilly”! (We know her as Evelyn.) Her comment came in late last night, just as we were packing it in for the day. You can find her comment attached to the post, “My Interview with Lee Strobel”–it’s a great comment, by the way. So Ev wins an official Quokka T-shirt, either in Large (very dark blue) or Extra Large (bright red). All we need from you, mate, is your mailing address: please email it, and tell us your choice of shirts.
Now watch all the comments dry up because the contest is over. I told Lee that wouldn’t happen on my watch, so I’ll have to find some way to keep things hopping.
