Heat Wave
Bob Lefsetz’s Original Post – “Heat Wave”
Now you’re a prognosticator for climate change AND an expert on COVID-19! I seem to recall you writing a while back that:
“Being a politician is a profession. Michael Jordan proved that being the best basketball player of all time didn’t make him a world class baseball player.” – Bob Lefsetz
You are an excellent writer when it comes to music, rock & roll, arts and entertainment. For some reason you seem to think this also makes you a political pundit, a meteorologist, and disease and immunization expert.
“It’s not like they didn’t warn us.”
I’m not sure who “they” are, but we were warned time and again during the 70’s that a new Ice Age would soon be upon us.
“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years,” ecologist Kenneth Watt told an audience at Swarthmore College on April 19, 1970 around the time of the first Earth Day demonstrations.”
In 2007, politician Al Gore predicted that Earth’s “Ice Caps” will melt away by 2014. Hasn’t happened yet!
And you tell us that:
“Too bad if you’re an American. Because the country was built on individual freedom, pulling yourself up by your bootstraps, and if anything goes wrong you’re on your own, we don’t bother to help you!”
Idiocy! Fake News! American taxpayers redistribute more than a trillion dollars every year to help people in need.

“The above are indisputable facts. Hiding in plain sight.”
No, they are not. You are not an expert on climate change, politics, or COVID-19.
“The left has been complaining about the death of democracy ever since the southern states started enacting voter suppression laws.”
Boy, do you need to do your homework and stop relying on Democratic talking points and racist tropes.
“The KKK was created by Democrats who also passed the Jim Crow laws that restricted and suppressed black people for decades. It was Abraham Lincoln and a majority of Republicans who freed the slaves and supported Civil Rights Legislation in the early 60’s. During the Civil War an estimated 224,580 Union soldiers died under President Lincoln attempting to preserve the union and end slavery.
“Jim Crow laws were enacted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by white Southern Democrat-dominated state legislatures to disenfranchise and remove political and economic gains made by black people during the Reconstruction period. Jim Crow laws were enforced until 1965.
“Who voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1960?
After several amendments, the House of Representatives approved the bill on March 24, 1960 by a vote of 311–109. 179 Democrats (out of 262 or 68%) and 132 Republicans (out of 175 or 75%) voted Aye. 93 Democrats, 15 Republicans, and 1 Independent Democrat voted Nay.”
“Greta Thunberg dedicates her life to saving the environment”
Greta Thunberg is an ignorant little twit who knows next to nothing about the environment. “Dedicates her life”? She started her climate change protests at age 15, dropped out of school, and has spent all of three years trying to shame others over a subject she knows very little about.
“Greta has Asperger’s syndrome, a developmental disorder, and has described it as a gift and said being different is a “superpower”.
Just about every sentence in your rambling incoherent blog post consists of Fake News, lies, misinformation and ignorance. Get over yourself. Get educated . Don’t be such a low information voter.

Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
