Just imagine if George W. Bush had said this

Just close your eyes and imagine

Via Slate:

[A]s usual, and in keeping with the high-minded tone of his speech, there were few policy specifics. (The Washington Post’s Brad Plumer has  a good rundown of what might be feasible in the president’s second term.) What was interesting was how he framed the issue: not just as one of responsibility to future generations, but as one of responsibility to God. Here’s what he said:

“We, the people, still believe that our obligations as Americans are not just to ourselves, but to all posterity. We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations. Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms. The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition; we must lead it. We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries — we must claim its promise. That is how we will maintain our economic vitality and our national treasure — our forests and waterways; our croplands and snowcapped peaks. That is how we will preserve our planet, commanded to our care by God. That’s what will lend meaning to the creed our fathers once declared.”

If Bush, or any Republican had said that, the Leftists heads would be exploding. Odd how they do not mind when a fellow Leftist mentions God.

 

The Daily Kos loves them some thuggery!

Supporting intimidation designed to silence free speech. It just suits the miscreants doesn’t it?

The Daily Kos has a profile of Brett Kimberlin Lord Voldemort posted. (H/T, Darth Chipmunk) It contains these words:

Kimberlin has been very effective at countering the right-wing hate spewing machine. Robert Stacey McCain (no relation but just as fascist) decided to attack him for his Activism with children for Justice. Lets just say Robert Stacey McCain is on the run these days. Erick Erickson of CNN fame got a nice little knock on the door. Seth Allen get the message as well. This is what Activists do, shutting down hate speech one individual at a time. If Brett Kimberlin can make a difference by himself, we all can.

 

Climate Change Nazis looking to silence dissent

Soylent Green has the story, and links. Go check it out then ask yourself this. How long until our FCC tries to take a similar approach

I saw this first at Ozclimatesense, but the link is to Simon at ACM because he has created a new site to allow Aussies to fight this–while they still can…

They will have the power to impose a “code of ethics”, force you to print views you don’t agree with as part of a ‘right of reply’, take you to court, and even make you take pieces down! Even personal blogs that get only 40 hits a day will be covered! To make matters worse, the SuperRegulator “would not have to give reasons for its decisions” and the decisions “would not be subject to appeal.” Even climate change websites in other countries like Watt’s Up With That will be covered by this!

So, understand, this is threatening Australians now, and not just larger blogs either, but pretty much any blog that dares express views that Leftists disagree with. So, how soon does the FCC take this up? How soon would Obama,with a new term in office, seek such a law? And understand this,he might even seek to bypass Congress on this. Recall that Congress shot down Cap and Trade,and Obama just went to the EPA to bypass them. Do not think he would not attempt the same strategy with the FCC.

If folks in Alabama get this upset over water bills…….

Just imagine how they will react when LSU whips the Tide January 9th?

“These people are going to end up rioting about this,” says Sheila Tyson, a community activist in Jefferson County, Ala. “If they let this stuff happen they are going to get the biggest riot the South has ever seen . . . I can see it coming.”

That’s a pretty serious prediction. What could possibly start a riot that big?

She’s talking about the likelihood of Jefferson County increasing its water and sewage bill rates.

Oh. Is it really all that bad?

“If the sewer bill gets higher, my light might get cut off and if I try to catch up the light, my water might get cut off. So we’re in between. We can’t make it like this,” says Tammy Lucas, a Birmingham resident who has been affected by a “financial and political scandal that has brought one of the most deprived communities in America’s south to the point of what some local people believe is collapse,” reports the BBC.

So what will Robert Stacy McCain do if LSU beats Alabama again? Will he feel “embattled”? And how much will Pat Austin rub Stacy’s nose in it if her Tigers roll the Tide?

And who will I be pulling for? Hmmmm, after much thought, I am going to have to say……GEAUX TIGERS!

I had a steak last night, Al Gore hardest hit

The angriest Envirocrat is back,and he wants you to stop eating meat

Al Gore wants society to ditch meat-heavy diets and go organic to combat global warming.

“Industrial agriculture is a part of the problem,” Gore said Friday during an interview with FearLess Revolution founder Alex Bogusky. “The shift toward a more meat-intensive diet,” the clearing of forest areas in many parts of the world in order to raise more cattle and the reliance on synthetic nitrogen for fertilizer are also problems, he added.

Blah, blah, blah, am I the only one tired of these talking points? I bet not, and I doubt I will be the only one PO’ed that Gore is now playing The Race Card

The former vice president also criticized climate change skeptics, urging those who support curbs to greenhouse gases to “win the conversation” when it comes to global warming. He compared the struggle against climate skeptics to the fight against racism during the civil rights movement.

When racist comments would come up in the course of conversations, “There came a time when people said, ‘Hey man, why do you talk that way? That’s wrong, I don’t go for that, so don’t talk that way around me. I just don’t believe that.’

Is there any smear the Left will not use to get their way? Is there any point where they look in the mirror and think “you know if I have to lie, or use smear tactics to win the debate, maybe I am wrong on the issues” When do Leftists reach that point? Sadly, never it seems.

Hurricane hysteria gives way to global-warming hype:

Was Hurricane Irene caused by global warming?
– Politico

How Global Warming Is Making Hurricane Irene Worse
– Thnk Progress

Global Warming’s Heavy Cost
– The Daily Beast

And if you don’t buy into the hype, you’re anti-science.

As I already said, these people really need some new BS to spew.

Paging George Orwell

What might he say about this?

The global warming true believer crowd is losing the climate change argument. Their back up plan is to silence the other half of the argument and censor anthropogenic climate change skeptics.
(MailOnline)- Opponents of global warming should be given less coverage by the BBC than the climate change lobby, the corporation will rule.

The BBC is set to publish a report tomorrow on its science output announcing changes to rules on impartiality.

Following the overhaul, programme makers and broadcasters will be compelled to give less prominence to those who oppose the scientific community’s majority view.

I suppose some views are MORE equal than others?

Many of the GOP presidential candidates are seeking the votes of church-goers and religious conservatives by presenting themselves as strong defenders of their faith.

However, while candidates mostly agree with their respective churches on issues like abortion and same-sex marriage, they are mostly silent when it comes to environmental issues. Why? Perhaps because their stances directly conflict with the positions of their churches.

A number of leading candidates have embraced an extremist anti-environment platform, in which they deny climate change science, call for the elimination of the Environmental Protection Agency, and support the deregulation of the oil and coal industries.

Your weekend dose of climate change fear mongering

The Al Gore Church/Cult of Climate Change preaches that pretty much everything is caused by, or causes global warming these days, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, the inability of fish to smell, and apparently to hear, tsunamis, wildfires, beaches are all caused, or at least worsened by the much dreaded, feared, and largely concocted “climate change”. Likewise, the Cult of Gore preaches that everything causes this climate change. William Teach has done an excellent job of chronicling the fear mongering of the Cult of Gore. Here are a few of the things, according to the Gorists, that are dooming us, especially Chicago  which will be turned into Baton Rouge soon if the climate change menace is not halted apparently. And really, what would be so bad if that happened? Chicago would actually get to see some quality SEC football instead of that Big Ten stuff. Anyway, here are some of the things causing our impending demise

Your DVR

Your cat, especially, I would suppose, if your cat uses your DVR

Your smart phone

Angry Birds

Your Ice Maker

Your kids, well actually anyone’s kids

People who are pro-life

Rivers!

Finally, I leave you with this  Cult of Gore theory, drinking booze and or cooking will kill us all!

You said you wanted more hysteria, here you go

In the next decade, the effects of a rapidly warming climate could kill 5 million people—as many as live in Singapore or Finland. More than 99 percent of those deaths will likely occur in developing countries, and almost four-fifths are expected to happen in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. There could be as many as a million climate-related deaths each year by 2030 if nations don’t significantly cut planet-warming emissions, according to a report released Friday.

That was your crystal ball moment. Now for your eating moment

But you might want to pause before blaming climate change on tomato-hauling tractors and methane-belching cattle: Your kitchen is the single greatest contributor to carbon dioxide emissions in the food chain. By some estimates, cooking accounts for 37 percent of the greenhouse gases generated in a potato’s life cycle, almost twice as much as shipping them to market.

OK, climate alarmists, time to stop cooking your food. Please take pictures of you eating only raw meals, and send them in….what, you refuse? Bad climate alarmists, no biscuit! Unshockingly, this Washington Post story doesn’t allow comments. Make sure you ask Brian Palmer, the writer, if he has stopped cooking at ask.the.lantern@gmail.com. Now your drinking moment

Murder in Detroit, overworked immigration judges, bruisers-for-hire on Indian reservations: If you’ve been reading Mother Jones lately, you’re probably ready for a stiff drink. Not so fast! In terms of greenhouse-gas emissions, US booze manufacturers release the annual equivalent of 1.9 million households. How’s that for a buzzkill? The good news is that you have choices. Here are a few tips for drowning your sorrows sustainably.

Well, great! I guess we are all pretty much f***ed, so I am going to go cook a steak, do a couple of shots, program my DVR, and then, my cat and I will just wait for the tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires, tsunamis, or maybe those deaf and blind fish to kill us all!

Batshit Crazy Virus Strikes, Sigourney Weaver Hardest Hit

Via The Pirates Cove where William Teach exposes an ugly truth about the Sigourney Weavers of the world

Isn’t it funny how the methods to deal with anthropogenic global warming always seem to revolve around Someone Else Doing Something? Ms. Weaver, a wonderful actress, is over at the Huffington Post giving us A Secret Weapon for Fighting Climate Change: Empowering Women

Over the past month, I have been speaking to women in Canada and the American Midwest about a powerful force that discriminates against us. I am not talking about the glass ceiling or sexists bosses, although we all know those still exist. I am talking about climate change.

Ah, so Climate Change is sexist now? It is actively seeking to discriminate against women? Is that what Ms Weaver believes? Or is she simply being over dramatic to get people to believe her spiel? More importantly, can she get any nuttier in her claims?

If you ask people the tools we need to stop climate change, most talk about wind and solar energy, fuel efficient cars, and biofuels. But there is another solution that is not so widely known: empowering women.

Empowering women you say Sigourney? William Teach likes the sound of that, but points put that when nuts like Sigourney, and don’t you have to be a nut to be named Sigourney, talk about “empowering women” they actually mean kill babies.

Empowering women sounds like a good idea, especially since they are treated like 2nd class citizens in so many of the 3rd world sh*t holes, er, developing nations, around the world. Especially in the Muslim dominated ones. Sometimes, women are worth less than the farm animals, so, raising their stature, treating them as equals, like in the developed world, would be fantastic…..what’s that? That’s not what Sigourney is talking about?

Most women and girls want more control over how and when they build their families, and most development organizations support that aim. Now researchers also recognize that what is good for women is also good for the planet.

Two groundbreaking studies, one from the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research and one from the Futures Group, found that simply by meeting women’s existing needs for voluntary family planning, we could reduce carbon emissions by between 8 and 15 percent.

That is the equivalent of stopping all deforestation today.

And there you go, Sigourney Weaver is so deranged that she thinks killing unborn babies will reduce the sexist effects of non-existent global warming, I mean climate change. Good freaking grief!
