Dan Maes and the U.N. Plot to Bicycilize the World!

by: Colorado Pols

Wed Aug 04, 2010 at 11:58:44 AM MDT


Oh, Dan Maes! We don't know where you came from, and we're still amazed at how you got here, but we can't deny that you are one amusing fellow. Even if you don't mean to be. From TPM, via that Denver newspaper:

Colorado Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes knows you might think  bicycles and bicycle riding are harmless, but beware: "That's exactly the attitude they want you to have."

The Denver Post reports that Maes, a Tea Party friendly candidate facing former Rep. Scott McInnis in the August 10 Republican primary, has come out against a public bicycle program run by the city of Denver. Denver's mayor, John Hickenlooper, is the presumptive Democratic nominee, and a cycling supporter.

"This is all very well-disguised, but it will be exposed," Maes said at a small campaign rally last week, according to the Post. "These aren't just warm, fuzzy ideas from the mayor. These are very specific strategies that are dictated to us by this United Nations program that mayors have signed on to."

We can't even attempt to dissect this one, folks. Encouraging people to ride their bicycles is a sinister U.N. plot to...make businesses install showers...and...really, we need a pie chart or graph or something to follow along.

Yes, yes
ColoradoPols underestimated the Tea Party. Big surprise there. As far as the bike thing, that in itself is not harmful, but the U.N. program Fort Collins signed onto is a shocking transfer of power from local communities to an international bully. Personally, I don't want some faceless bureaucrat halfway around the world in control of Fort Collins.

Ft. Collins didn't sign away any power. And I'm not sure they could even if they wanted to.

We have yet to see if anyone 'underestimated the Tea Party.'

Yes, as a matter of fact.
This has been a bit of a big deal in Fort Collins. There was an effort to recall city councilwoman Lisa Poppaw over this, complete with a website and facebook group. I haven't looked into it too much, because I don't really care that much, but it has to do with the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives - Local Governments for Sustainability. Here's some links to get you started.

Great links!
You really make your case, like this one:

The paper's own editorial board  has called the recall effort "harassment," as Poppaw is inexplicably singled out for legislation that other council members also supported. In May, the paper wrote: "The statement of recall filed to justify asking voters to remove Poppaw reads like some one-world government conspiracy theory out of the 1960s." [emphasis Twitty]

But if you read the rest of the article,

[ Parent ]
We don't get the right (pun intended ) news
First I'd like to say that yes I know that Mother Jones is lefty but  soon to be former R Reps from S. Carolina are not.   This is just a foretaste. Read all the mind boggling details of current wackjob theories being taken for gospel on the right,  provided by R-S.C. Rep Inglis at:

http://motherjones.com/politic...

It was the middle of a tough primary contest, and Rep. Bob Inglis (R-S.C.) had convened a small meeting with donors who had contributed thousands of dollars to his previous campaigns. But this year, as Inglis faced a challenge from tea party-backed Republican candidates claiming Inglis wasn't sufficiently conservative, these donors hadn't ponied up. Inglis' task: Get them back on the team. "They were upset with me," Inglis recalls. "They are all Glenn Beck watchers." About 90 minutes into the meeting, as he remembers it, "They say, 'Bob, what don't you get? Barack Obama is a socialist, communist Marxist who wants to destroy the American economy so he can take over as dictator. Health care is part of that. And he wants to open up the Mexican border and turn [the US] into a Muslim nation.'" Inglis didn't know how to respond.

As he tells this story, the veteran lawmaker is sitting in his congressional office, which he will have to vacate in a few months. On June 22, he was defeated in the primary runoff by Spartanburg County 7th Circuit Solicitor Trey Gowdy, who had assailed Inglis for supposedly straying from his conservative roots, pointing to his vote for the bank bailout and against George W. Bush's surge in Iraq. Inglis, who served six years in Congress during the 1990s as a conservative firebrand before being reelected to the House in 2004, had also ticked off right-wingers in the state's 4th Congressional District by urging tea-party activists to "turn Glenn Beck off" and by calling on Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) to apologize for shouting "You lie!" at Obama during the president's State of the Union address. For this, Inglis, who boasts (literally) a 93 percent lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union, received the wrath of the tea party, losing to Gowdy 71 to 29 percent. In the weeks since, Inglis has criticized Republican House leaders for acquiescing to a poisonous, tea party-driven "demagoguery" that he believes will undermine the GOP's long-term credibility. And he's freely recounting his frustrating interactions with tea party types, while noting that Republican leaders are pushing rhetoric tainted with racism, that conservative activists are dabbling in anti-Semitic conspiracy theory nonsense, and that Sarah Palin celebrates ignorance.

Can't wait to hear from LB, not addressing anything Inglis says except to note it must all be sour grapes.  So I concede the sour grapes following a crushing rejection.  I only ask LB if he thinks Inglis is making this stuff up.  Frankly I doubt he has enough imagination.

Bob, what don't you get?

[ Parent ]
People like Inglis are a gigantic loss
Very conservative and I disagree with him on most issues. But he was thoughtful and intelligent. When the Republican party loses that they become just a bunch of angry old men yelling at the squirrels in their yard.

From the same Mother Jones article:
Bob Inglis, a conservative Republican from South Carolina, speaking in the first person:
"I sat down, and they said on the back of your Social Security card, there's a number. That number indicates the bank that bought you when you were born based on a projection of your life's earnings, and you are collateral. We are all collateral for the banks. I have this look like, 'What the heck are you talking about?' I'm trying to hide that look and look clueless. I figured clueless was better than argumentative. So they said, 'You don't know this?! You are a member of Congress, and you don't know this?!' And I said, 'Please forgive me. I'm just ignorant of these things.' And then of course, it turned into something about the Federal Reserve and the Bilderbergers and all that stuff. And now you have the feeling of anti-Semitism here coming in, mixing in. Wow."

And it goes faaaaaar beyond just Ft. Collins and Denver too!!

Did you know that the State Department in Washington has a so-called 'bicyclists' entrance' on the east side of its HQ? WHY?

Wellllll.....so that the 'faceless bureaucrats' who pretend to work there can ride their - get this - BICYCLES to work!!

That's right. Faceless bureaucrats. On bicycles. Right in the nation's capital. Doesn't that sicken you?!

And as we all know.....the State Department is the camel's nose under the tent for a one-world government here right here in America.

Perhaps Ken Buck and Jane Norton can follow Dan Maes' lead and raise this in the Senate campaign, since State is a federal agency? Why didn't McInnis put a stop to this while he was in Congress? Wimp!

"At first, I thought, 'Gosh, public transportation, what's wrong with that, and what's wrong with people parking their cars and riding their bikes? And what's wrong with incentives for green cars?' But if you do your homework and research, you realize ICLEI is part of a greater strategy to rein in American cities under a United Nations treaty," Maes said.

It could be a code word
that triggers sleeper agents like what happened to River in the Firefly movie Serenity.

ICLEI looks a lot like icicle which is similar to bicycle which means that it is probably some pinko commie infiltration unit sent to activate sleeper agents that has Maes worried because they will attempt to bicycle around town and show that alternative transportation works which will mean less driving of cars which will reduce the profits that the oil companies make resulting in the take over of America by the Chinese.  We can't allow the pinko commie Chinese to own us so refuse to exercise and continue to show your loyalty to our all American oil companies.

Which is frighteningly similar to what my husband thought of earlier today --
that the Chinese could invade and conquer us by riding those bicycles in circles around us (you know, they have more practice).

About that
International Harvester trucks are a brand of Navistar.
One of the top menu items on the Navistar website is EPA 2010. So, clearly, Navistar is in cahoots with the EPA who are part of the UN climate conspiracy.
And this "Navistar Enters Supply Agreement with Turkish Bus Manufacturer Otokar" is on their website so it appears that we will soon be riding in Turkish buses and not in our privately-owned automobiles.

International Harvester farm machinery is part of Case IH. "Ferrari and Case IH share more than their distinctive red paint schemes; they are both corporate members of the Fiat Group."
Wait a minute! FIAT is a European company so Case IH is part of the one-world society.

The Cub Cadet line of lawn mowers became part of MTD. This appears to be the only part of the former IH that is not part of global conspiracy.

Fiat of course is part of an international conspiracy
of faceless government bureaucrats and unions that bought Chrysler, including Jeeps and RAM pick up trucks, in a back door deal approved by a faceless government bureaucrat at the request of the man who has an office on Pennsylvania Avenue.

Dodge trucks are clearly a step on the road to UN domination.

Do they have to come to my house or is there a sleep away UNICEF?

Good old-fashioned american waffles,
not the belgian kind.

If they were good enough for six meals a day for  Grandpa Diogenesdemar (before he became enamored of the dust mop and ran off to Las Vegas with the little slut) then by jove, they're just fine for all the rest of the Diodenesdemars'!  

Don't believe everything you think.

"If you do your homework and research"
At Glenn Beck University.

Typical tea party claptrap: "I can't prove or even explain how it all fits together, but if YOU do your homework and research, you'll see how it all is actually true."

Sigh. That's what passes for scholarship in the Sarah Palin Age.

Is it too late to run an anti-Masonic party ticket?
It was one of the handful of parties that was notable in national elections in American history.
Even in Colorado Springs...
The cyclists have infiltrated and corrupted all of us God-fearing, gun-loving, Hummer-driving, Bush-backing military-industrial complex employees.  USA Cycling-right here in town! Cyclists everywhere! Bike racks! And even (may the Lord forgive us!) a giant bike race a few days hence on the grounds of the Air Force Academy! Dan,it's too late-all is lost...
So long as there's no Velodrome
That's when we'll know they've won.

"There are a lot of reasons not to elect me." Mitt Romney in a moment of clarity

"I'm Mitt Romney and yes, Wolf, that's also my first name," Willard Mitt Romney demonstrating 'policy flexibility.'  

thanks for that.
I miss BlackFlag.
And my youth.
And that is a bitchin' bike.

All I can say is if the UN is giving out free bikes - where's mine?

And Maes made the New York Times
Is it possible that Dan Maes is actually
Dickwad-Hams clever secret weapon to make Tom Tancredo appear sane?

Don't believe everything you think.
Nah
He would've waited until after the primary to do this if that was the case.

"We're below sharks and contract killers." -- Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), speaking on Congress's 9% approval rating

Can't stop laughing
And neither can anyone else apparently.

Do a Google search on 'Dan Maes' and this story pops to the top.  Markos did a front page story over at The Great Orange Satan.  Huffington Post has a piece.  It's made both the NY Times and Wall St. Journal blogs (WSJ has it as a Quote of the Day nominee I think...)

Isn't this just delish?!
We really are out-TP'ing Nevada.  

And do ya think, maybe, Dan Maes could end up as infamous as the Balloon Boy/Dad?

"These are the values inspiring those brave workers in Poland ... They remind us that where free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost." - Ronald Reagan

This broke too soon
Much better if it happened a week from now giving him a better chance of winning the primary.

Where all the cool kids will be on Saturday - Code War!
