Hypocrisy reeks

  So one of the environmental enthusiasts admits that, at the cost of trillions of dollars, none of the global warming measures being taken (I mean, SERIOUSLY. Does anyone really believe George Clooney drives a smart car?) will decrease the temperatures. Washington Examiner:

“If we cut emissions today, global temperatures are not likely to drop for about a thousand years.”

 That’s not just in Australia, mind you. That’s cutting emissions worldwide.

Under continued questioning by Bolt, Flannery said: “Just let me finish and say this: If the world as a whole cut all emissions tomorrow the average temperature of the planet is not going to drop in several hundred years, perhaps as much as a thousand years because the system is overburdened with CO2 that has to be absorbed and that only happens slowly.”

  Now comes word that the European Commission plans on banning cars in Europe. The Telegraph:

Top of the EU's list to cut climate change emissions is a target of "zero" for the number of petrol and diesel-driven cars and lorries in the EU's future cities

Siim Kallas, the EU transport commission, insisted that Brussels directives and new taxation of fuel would be used to force people out of their cars and onto "alternative" means of transport."That means no more conventionally fuelled cars in our city centres ," he said. "Action will follow, legislation, real action to change behaviour."

  Let me just say this about that.
  Bwahahaha.
  Nobody believes you're going to do that, you Bozos. (Sorry, Bozo.)
  Jammie has noticed that the freaks in Wisconsin don't seem to have noticed that Cuomo just did the same thing to New York, yet no one's squawking. No protesting in the capitol. No violence. No screaming obscenities. No death threats:

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is being lauded for announcing a $132.5 billion spending plan that closes a $10 billion state budget gap. Yet it's casually noted that to get there he has chopped $1.2 billion in school aid while not raising taxes. [SNIP]

Both of these governors quite clearly understand that spending must be cut in order to avoid bankrupting their states, but we wonder why the reaction to both budgets are so different? In Wisconsin we recently witnessed a three-week temper tantrum by unions, yet in New York the reaction is mostly muted. Let's pretend roles were reversed and a Democrat proposed cuts to education in Wisconsin. Well, actually it happened just two years ago. In Wisconsin.
