Agenda 21 Redux

Well, at least the Bellingham Herald’s front page article on the Tea Party didn’t overtly plug “Glenn Beck’s” novel Agenda 21.*

Of course, you will always find the real scoop on the major issues of the day on Get Whatcom Planning.  Did the Herald article warn you that the words “outcome,” local,” and “fair” are harbingers of the Agenda 21 apocalypse?  Heck no. 
 
To see the entire list of words that proves that One World Government is about to take over your life, follow this link to what one author described as “Glen Beck’s Agenda 21 Word Cloud.”

You’ll never view the term "parking policy” in quite the same way. 

If you haven't had quite enough Agenda 21 fun, try typing "Agenda 21" into Google Images.  Amongst the trojan horses and scary recycling logos, you'll come across my favorite picture, which floats a smirking, photoshopped  "Barack Hussein Obama" in an ocean where he's about to be attacked by an octopus, with the U.N. logo looming on the horizon.  Will the UN arrive in time to save our President from the giant cephalopod?  The author clearly hopes not.
 
For those who harbor the notion that Canada provides a safe harbor, a final refuge from American loopiness, I would say -- don't follow the link.  It will destroy your illusions.

On the other hand, for a more reality-based view of Agenda 21, here are a couple of blogs that I wrote earlier this year: Agenda 21: A Straw Enemy and Agenda 21: Talking to“Steve.”

*According to a book review, one Harriet Parke actually wrote the book, but Glenn Beck gets the large print on the cover – and the book tour – and the New York Times bestseller author credit (it’s listed at number 20.  A little scary, but is it any less scary than seeing Shades of Grey in the top 10?).

    Here's a fun fact... Jason Overstreet is cosponsoring a Bill to protect us from the horrors of Agenda 21 (/sarcasm)

    http://apps.leg.wa.gov/documents/billdocs/2013-14/Pdf/Bills/House%20Bills/1165.pdf

    HB 1165 Prohibiting the state of Washington and its political subdivisions from adopting and developing environmental and developmental policies that would infringe or restrict private property rights without due process.

    Sponsors: Representatives Rodne, Overstreet, Shea, Taylor, Haler, Magendanz

    (snippet - HB 1165 pg 1& 2)
    13 (2) The state of Washington and all political subdivisions may not
    14 adopt or implement policy recommendations that deliberately or
    15 inadvertently infringe or restrict private property rights without due
    16 process as may be required by policy recommendations originating in or
    17 traceable to Agenda 21, adopted by the United Nations in 1992 at its
    18 conference on environment and development, or any other international
    p. 1 HB 1165
    1 law or ancillary plan of action that contravenes the Constitution of
    2 the United States or the Constitution of the state of Washington.
    3 (3) Since the United Nations has accredited and enlisted numerous
    4 nongovernmental and intergovernmental organizations to assist in the
    5 implementation of its policies relative to Agenda 21 around the world,
    6 the state of Washington and all political subdivisions may not enter
    7 into any agreement, expend any sum of money, or receive funds
    8 contracting services or giving financial aid to or from the
    9 nongovernmental and intergovernmental organizations defined in Agenda
    10 21.
