How’s The Greening Of The Dem Convention Going?

Funnily! It reminds me of a 3 Stooges episode

As the Mile High City gears up to host a Democratic bash for 50,000, organizers are discovering the perils of trying to stage a political spectacle that’s also politically correct.

Consider the fanny packs.

he host committee for the Democratic National Convention wanted 15,000 fanny packs for volunteers. But they had to be made of organic cotton. By unionized labor. In the USA.

Official merchandiser Bob DeMasse scoured the country. His weary conclusion: “That just doesn’t exist.”

Ditto for the baseball caps. “We have a union cap or an organic cap,” Mr. DeMasse says. “But we don’t have a union-organic offering.”

And it gets better and better. They are going to have people going around making sure every bit of garbage goes in juuuuust the right container, and will have people pawing through the garbage to verify. Disgusting!

Seriously, most of this is not “green,” but climate change silliness. Green is about protecting the environment. Climate change is about making sure to blame Man for everything, and blame America. They are even taking it to new lows

Democrats say the point is to build habits that will endure long after the convention. To that end, the city has staged “greening workshops” attended by hundreds of caterers, restaurant owners and hotel managers. “It’s the new patriotism,” Mayor Hickenlooper says.

I’m not even going to go there on that one.
