THE GREAT GREEN RACE II
I first published this humor article a year ago under a different title. It was popular and copies often requested. Recent events in the news reminded me of it. Now is a time I think we could all use something to smile about. It is intended in good humor. We all need to laugh at ourselves from time to time. I have slightly edited it. Enjoy!
**********************************************************
Rule Number One – Smile – You can’t take these folks too seriously or it will make you crazy. Instead of getting mad it is better to keep our sense of humor and have some fun.
Let’s propose to the “Progressive Green New Deal” folks that they promote their ideas via sponsorship of a new Reality Show on television. We could call it “Survivor Plus” and the challenge the contestants face will be called: “The Great Green Race II”.
The plan: A race across the state of Texas for the contestants in Solar Powered Cars (similar to the one above).
The race will be from the West Texas town of El Paso to the East Texas town of Beaumont. Distance: 830 miles through the heart of Texas.
Each car will be decorated with Bumper Stickers and signs that say things like: NO MORE NRA – HILLARY IN 2020 – OUTLAW ALL GUNS – SHUT DOWN ALL OIL WELLS – NO MORE CATTLE.
First contestant to reach Beaumont, Texas alive wins a free lunch with Al Gore.
Second place winner will get two lunches with all Gore.
Any remaining surviving contestants that finish the race will win a three day stay at Al Gore’s Environmentally Friendly 10,070 square foot mansion/estate/home sharing quarters with Congresswoman and Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Congressman Adam Schiff and Congressman Jerry Nadler. Sounds like a great time doesn’t it?
Enjoy a tour of Al Gore’s reconstructed library. His old library was destroyed in a fire and all three of his books burned, including one he had not finished coloring yet.
Have your mind stimulated at a third grade math class taught by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes.
Laugh yourself silly at the “Battle of Wits” between Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler. Spirited intellectual combat between three intellectually unarmed combatants.
Indulge yourself at the Environment Friendly Bar-B-Que featuring cow-flatulent-free Tofu Burgers. Yum, Yum!
Just for entering the race, all contestants will receive an Al Gore autographed 8 x 10 glossy color photograph of his Environmentally Friendly private jet.

This was written for fun and a smile. Some of your friends and neighbors might enjoy this. Many folks who call themselves “Progressives” demonstrate little to no sense of humor. Share accordingly.
