So here we sit as the Middle East continues to disintegrate pretty much right before our very eyes. And a big reason for what is now taking place in that region of the world can be traced directly to disastrous foreign policy now being implemented by the idiotic team of Barry "Almighty" and John Kerry-Heinz. And yet, instead of working on any sort of possible solution to what is a rapidly deteriorating situation, what is it that two are doing? One’s playing golf while the other, our esteemed secretary of state, has taken it upon himself to lecture us on the current state of our oceans.
Yup, it’s a fact, and as bizarre as it may sound to most intelligent people, with all that's happening in the world today, Secretary of State John Kerry-Heinz took it upon himself to spend a part of his day, just yesterday, addressing, of all things, "the threats facing the ocean." It was just a mere 24 hours ago that Kerry-Heinz could be heard telling a conference there at the State Department, "Today less than 2 percent of our ocean is considered a marine-protected area where there are some restrictions on human activity in order to prevent contaminating the ecosystem."
Kerry-Heinz would go on to make the claim that most people "underestimate the enormous damage" that humans inflict on the oceans every day. And, apparently, so concerned is he about this egregious situation that he complained, "When people order seafood from a restaurant, most of the time they don't realize that a third of the world's fish stocks are over-exploited, too much money chasing too few fish. And nearly all the rest are being fished at or near their absolute maximum sustainable level on a planet that has six billion people today and will rise to nine (billion) over the next 30, 40, 50 years."
And so, you might ask, or might not, what might be this imbecile’s solution to this latest catastrophe? Well, of course, it’s to simply make our oceans off limits to humans. Kerry-Heinz said, "Today less than 2 percent of our ocean is considered a marine protected area where there are some restrictions on human activity in order to prevent contaminating the ecosystem. Less than 2 percent of the entire ocean. There isn't anybody here who doesn't believe we can't do better than that. So let's start by finding a way to perhaps bring that number up to 10 percent or more as soon as possible."
Kerry-Heinz went on to declare, "And let's develop a plan that does more to reduce the flow of plastic and other debris from entering into the ocean." And he droned on saying, "We need a plan that helps cut down the nutrient pollution that runs off of land and is miles from the shore and that contributes to the dead zones...We need to develop a plan that gives us a better understanding of the acidification effect that carbon pollution is having in our ocean." So once again what we have here is another disaster that stems from the left’s calamity of choice, ‘climate change’.
And now we all know that old Kerry-Heinz is a big supporter of the U.N. so we should not have been at all surprised when he said, "And we need to push harder, all of us, for U.N. agreements to fight carbon pollution in the first place because the science proves that's the only way we'll have a chance of reducing the impact of climate change, which is one of the greatest threats facing not just our ocean but our entire planet." Have you ever noticed how it is with this guy, and others on the left, that there is absolutely nothing that cannot somehow be made to relate to bogus ‘climate change?’
He said, "Finally, we need to develop a plan that not only lays out the policies we need to protect our ocean, but that also considers how we are going to enforce those policies on a global scale, because without enforcement any plan we create will only take us so far." So I guess what his plan would include would be for there to be some sort of ocean going police force, undoubtedly very heavily armed, out there patrolling the high seas. Because how else could those such as Kerry-Heinz intimidate those fisherman just trying to make a living so they can support their families. Can’t have that!
Kerry-Heinz said convening a save-the-ocean conference has been a priority of his for a long time. He said, "[L]iterally from the time I was growing up as a child in Massachusetts, when I first dipped my toes into the mud off Woods Hole Oceanographic, in that area of Buzzards Bay and the Cape, and was introduced to clamming and to fishing and all of those great joys of the ocean, I have had this enormous love and respect for what the ocean means to us." Come on, really ? All this guy was most likely concerned about when growing up was where was he going to snag his next meal ticket.
According to Kerry-Heinz it was partly the reason that he chose to go into the Navy. He said: "It's sort of been my DNA." Adding, "My mother's family was involved way, way, way back in the early days of trade through the oceans. And indeed, my father was a passionate sailor who in his retirement found a way to sail across the ocean several times." He added, "So I learned very early on to appreciate this vast expanse of the ocean, so vast that three-quarters of our planet is really ocean. Someone might have called our planet Ocean, not Earth, if it was based on that, but obviously, it is not." Gag me with a spoon!
So there you have it. The Middle East is descending into complete chaos, and all of the collateral damage that will surely accompany such an event, is of very little concern to John Kerry-Heinz. Instead of working on those issues that truly do fall under purview, he’d much rather opine about those things of which we can do very little, if anything, about. Because, let’s face it, even if there were such a thing as ‘climate change’ there is nothing that we could do to either stop it or to even slow it down. Kerry-Heinz is a lot like Barry. Both very much enjoy their current titles but care very little for the job that goes with them.
