Seeing how the on the record most liberal politician ever in history of congress is about to be elected president.
Lets see an example of how the most liberal of all cities in the U.S. runs its politics.
SAN FRANCISCO'S OWLGORE
San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom has decided that his city is not doing enough to combat climate change. So what is his solution? More government! Not only more government, but a new government bureaucrat will be added to the payroll in San Francisco. Looking for a job? San Francisco's Director of Climate Protection Initiatives will make a generous $160,000 a year. Not bad for a government bureaucrat dedicated to hack science and a phony cause.
Wait .. there's more. Newsom could, perhaps, get away with this new position ... if he didn't already have 25 employees on the city's roster that are dedicated to "climate issues." This means that the taxpayers of San Francisco are already paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to tackle climate issues, and now they will only be paying more. Not to mention that the city is bracing for a $233 million budget deficit next fiscal year. So while lawmakers are sitting in the chambers trying to figure out ways to cut down on emergency room hours and delaying playground improvement projects, Mayor Newsom gets to sit in his office and create a new job in the name of climate change.
So who are these 25 employees already dedicated to fighting the good fight against global warming? And how much are they costing the tax payers?
$160,720: Salary for the Director of Climate Protection Initiatives in the mayor's office.
$800,000: Combined salary for the eight-person Energy and Climate Program team led by a climate action coordinator - at a total cost of more than $800,000
$207,500: Salary for the Head of the city's Environment Department, which has a staff of 65 and annual budget of about $14 million.
$146,218: Salary for the projects manager for the climate action plan of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission
$156,655: Salary for the assistant to the general manager for water enterprise (works on how climate change is going to impact the region's water supply)
$130,700: Salary for the "Greening Director" in Mayor Newsom's office
$190,091: Salary for the manager of environmental services at San Francisco International Airport
$116,584: Salary for the manager of emissions reductions and sustainability programs at the Municipal Transportation Agency
You San Francisco taxpayers must be absolutely orgasmic in your appreciation for your mayor and his spending priorities.
Dumb asses
And from Liberal Minnesota this kind of idiotic shit attitude.
ANTI-SEMITISM TASK FORCE
Representative Keith Ellison (a Muslim Democrat from Minnesota) has been assigned to a Congressional Task Force on Anti-Semitism. That would be like assigning me to head a task force for universal suffrage. That wouldn't be a wise appointment. Now some groups are calling for Chairman Joe Kaufman (a Democrat from Florida) to remove Ellison ... and perhaps with good reason.
It's ironic that a man with direct contact with radical Muslim organizations would be placed on a task force on anti-Semitism. Ellison has ties to both the Muslim American Society and our favorite Council on American-Islamic Relations ... both of which have been linked to the Muslim Brotherhood by the US government. And CAIR has been linked to Hamas. Ellison spoke at CAIR's national convention in November of 2006 as an honorary guest. He was the keynote speaker at a Muslim American Society event, which at the very time he was speaking boasted statements on its website calling for the murder of Jews. On top of which, the Muslim American Society is believed to be the political front in the U.S. for the Muslim Brotherhood, which is the ideological basis of al Qaeda and other Islamic terrorist organizations. And for a time, Ellison was highly involved with the Nation of Islam. As a law student at the University of Minnesota, he helped to bring speakers to campus who spoke against Jews, Israel and white Americans.
Ellison says that he has publicly denounced the anti-Semitism in these groups ... but we find no evidence to support his claim. Perhaps he's lying. Muslims, you know, are free to lie as long as they're lying to us dirty infidels. This is the closest you will find to an "enlightening" moment from Ellison, a letter he wrote to the Jewish Community Relations Council claiming that he was unaware of the Nation of Islam's anti-Semitism. But actions do speak louder than words. Nonetheless, Joe Kaufman says that Ellison will stay on the task force.
