Today’s quote comes to us from that noted climate change expert, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Mars NY).
Ms. Ocasio-Cortez has a serious…well, serious for her…warning about climate change that should materially affect real estate values in South Florida…not to mention where the waterfront properties are.
On Wednesday, while talking about her view on climate change realities, she informed an NAACP town hall that:
“When it comes to climate change, what is not realistic is not responding … with a solution on the scale of the crisis—because what’s not realistic is Miami not existing in a few years. That’s not realistic. So we need to be realistic about the problem.”
Now that is a classic doomsday prediction…although, if you think about it, not so meaningful given that, according to Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, the world is ending in about 11 1/2 years anyway.
Maybe she has booked a flight on louis farrakhan’s UFO “wheel” 19, to avoid the inevitable end of earth habitation. If so, I hope she has room for Al Gore too.
I award Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for, again, showing why some people refer to her jokingly (maybe not) as “Alexandria Occasional-Cortex”.
Oh, one other thing: in case you think climate change scares are new, in 1969 – long before Ms. Ocasio-Cortez was born and farrakhan graced us with his extra-terrestrial experiences – a West Coast group, called Shango, put out a record, titled “Day After Day (It’s Slippin’ Away)”, which predicted all this (OK, maybe it was about a potential earthquake, but the song doesn’t specify).
Its opening verse:
Day after day, more people come to LA.
Shhh, dont you tell anybody, the whole place slippin; away.
Where can we go, when there’s no San Francisco?
Shhh, better get ready to tie up the boat in Idaho.
Wow, talk about being ahead of their time…..
UPDATE: Under the heading of “Not Nice But Funny As Hell”, I just read a comment about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez which referred to her as “Nostradumbass”. I spontaneously busted out laughing.
