It seems that Vice-president Gore has not made enough money on his carbon credits, and that’s where the real failure lies.
In our opinion, the congressional lack of progress on this issue is a major success. Man-made global warming fits the template for most hoax-crises: It’s massive, it’s hard to understand, we need leaders to understand it and tell us what to do, the benefits accrue way down the road (for our children, typically) and oh yeah, it’s gonna cost you. The politics ran away with this problem years ago, and the people want no part of it. Gore, fortunately for us, unfortunately for him, has become something of a laughingstock. This may be his surrender speech.
The video here is only a taste of the outside activity. For a really good look inside, check the project’s photo gallery at its website. Some great photos here – only problem is you can’t stop the slide show and the pictures change a little too quickly. But you’ll still get an idea of the scope of this wonderful project for the city of Elkhart.
Harry Reid’s son, Rory, doesn’t use his last name (same as his weasel-dad’s) anyhere in this campaign had. He obviously realizes old Harry is bad baggage — why doesn’t Harry get it?
Senator Max Baucus is another truth-telling Democrat who has let it slip that one of the real agendas of Obamacare is redistribution of wealth.
As if we really needed a clue. Obama’s history, mentors and more, along with the radicalization of the Democratic Party in recent years has been more than enough of a tip-off. We spotted Obama’s redistributionist tendencies during the debates. Slight notice was paid at the time, but not nearly enough.
It’s beginning to sound like a mantra, but the health care bill has never really been about health care. It has been about (in Speaker Pelosi’s words), “kicking the door down,” not just for nationalization of medicine, but for vastly increased government interference in business and ultimately, our everyday lives.
Sometimes, if you pay attention, the left reveals the true agenda. We’re not only ones who have understood what the health care charade was really about, and here’s sweet old John Dingell slipping up and letting us know we were right.
Health care was never about health, really. It’s always been about “controlling the people. This is just further confirmation.
The Politico reports on Democrat plans for health care, now that their filibuster-proof majority is done. The pledge is to move forward and “get something passed,” but unless they can flip an Olympia Snowe or pull some kind of procedural trick, it’s hard to see how. And it’s hard to see how they could even attempt either approach without serious political repercussions.
It seems to us the Democrats need to step back and realize that repeating how ‘important” and “needed” health care reform is, and that the reason they’re having such a difficult slog is that most Americans don’t want it.
And it’s not because they don’t understand it. It’s because it’s an utterly terrible idea. The bill itself has problems, but it appears to us that most Americans understand that it’s only a first step toward something they REALLY don’t want, which is a complete government takeover. It’s not the details of the bills as much as the philosophy it represents that is problematic. And yet, Obama adviser David Axelrod says this:
“I think that it would a terrible mistake to walk away now. If we don’t pass the bill, all we have is the stigma of a caricature that was put on it. That would be the worst result for everybody who has supported this bill.”
Yes, David, but we think it would be the best result for the United States.
