THE GREEN NEW DEAL MEETS UNCLE SAM©

To all you faithful climate change deceivers,
Hear these words from global warming non-believers.
Sit down a moment with your Uncle Sam,
This message will be simple so you can understand.
We need to have this talk, so you will finally see
The Green New Deal is the threat upon our Liberty.
The existential threat you claim
Does not exist in Climate Change.
Your Green New Deal it is a scam
Elaborately plotted by sinister hands.
I’m here to protect America’s land
From shysters who boast of a “better” plan.
I do not like your Green New Deal,
American Liberty it wants to steal.
It does not fit our Constitution,
It might just cause a Revolution.
I cannot allow your Green New Deal,
It’s confusing rhetoric is surreal.
Restrictions and mandates are the plan,
Your Green New Deal destroys the land.
All private property it restricts,
But that’s what makes America tick.
We are one people from sea to shining sea,
But our land is not community property.
From Father to Son and generations to come,
They worked and toiled ‘til setting sun.
Their land is their home and their occupation,
To seize it by tax would be usurpation.
And on that ground we firmly stand,
Cuz American citizens own their land.
You just can’t take it when you want,
Cuz, I’m tellin’ ya now,
That dog won’t hunt!
On Executive Order Fourteen-zero-zero-eight
Your Uncle Sam must castigate.
The “30 by 30” plan to confiscate
Land and the water it wants to sequestrate.
It is a hoax – It is a scheme,
It’s private property tyranny!
You say plant yucca in the community gardens,
And to plant any other begs racial pardon.
On your yucca you can munch,
America prefers Liberty for lunch.
Your Green New Deal, it ain’t no bargain,
It’s tyranny against US Farmin’.
My pocketbook is empty now,
And I kinda like those gassy cows.
This is where our talk gets Real…
Your Green New Deal has no Appeal!
You’re full of hot air when you speak of wind farms
Those spinning turbines, they do great harm
Our Eagles and geeses are chopped into pieces
Leaving birds without feathers, no beaks and no arms!
(ok it’s wings… but that doesn’t rhyme)
It takes gallons of fuel and tons of coal
To build those turbines and dig their deep holes.
They take more energy than they’ll ever give
…besides they are ugly and
you don’t want them where you live.
Their life span is short and recycle they don’t.
You need to stop building them but
We know that you won’t!
Your intelligence was clearly lacking
When you decided to ban US fracking.
US oil is light and sweet,
God put it right here under our feet.
Saudi oil is thick and slow,
It’s a terrible plan, don’t you know.
To ship oil from there and then over to here
Is a reckless idea – that is quite clear!
It’s an irresponsible act when our oil’s so near.
Diesel smoke from the tankers’ stacks
Unnecessarily pollute the air – and that’s a FACT!
Large tanker fleets from across the sea
Don’t end up saving energy.
PLUS – they are dangerous acts of autocracy,
cruelty, calamity; impending acts of catastrophe!
Your green ideas for saving energy
Are totalitarian acts of tyranny!
NO FUEL
NO COAL
NO WARMTH
JUST COLD
NO JOBS
NO FOOD
THIS DEAL MUST GO!
I will not use the electric car
It cannot take me very far.
There cannot be “NO” high speed trains,
The solar grid they’re sure to strain.
I would not have it with a Dem
I cannot trust the lot of them.
I do not think it makes good sense
…. You all must know, I’m not that dense.
The supply chain is fragmented, splintered, and torn.
Babies are hungry, Moms are forlorn!
On the shelves we are missing
Supplies and much more.
No Enfamil
No Advil
No soaps for the sinks
Secretary Pete is the weakest of links.
The infrastructure is now a bureaucratic mess
You broke it, you know it, you must confess…
but – “We don’t want a permanent solution,” he said,
“to a temporary problem”…
Where is HIS HEAD?!!
Your Green New Deal it does not fit,
The lifestyle of green hypocrites.
The money is the green YOU see,
On this point we must agree.
While you throw your greenie fits,
You yourselves don’t follow it.
You peddle your bike for a photo-op
You’re not fooling us… Please STOP-STOP-STOP!
Then you hop in your limo, down the block you go
You think you’re a green star,
But you’re just putting on a show.
You travel in your private jets
You travel in large cars
You travel near
You travel far
Your Green way of Living
Is Quite Bizarre!
I do not like your deal of green,
You say it’s new, but it’s the same old scheme…
No Life!
No Liberty!
“No Happiness,” it screams!
It strips away the American dream.
The existential threat you claim
Does not exist in Climate Change.
Your Uncle Sam says you must now know,
Your Green New Deal…
Must GO – GO – GO!
