Uncle Barack has declared "Climate Change" formerly know as "Global Warming" a crisis that can no longer be avoided, so Congress is working on the "Cap & Trade" legislation (You can look it up on the Internet [invented by Al Gore] if you want details). It is basically a huge tax increase on energy, which is going to cause the cost of electricity, gasoline, natural gas, propane, and home heating oil to skyrocket. Al Gore testified before Congress in favor of the legislation. Now, Mr. Gore's home in Tennessee has a "Carbon Footprint" twenty times the size of the average house in this country. If he really cared about the temperature of the planet, you'd think he'd be living in a lean to in the woods and be eating twigs. Do you have any idea how many millions of dollars his "Climate Change" businesses and foundations have made for him? Back to Uncle Barack. He is so concerned about the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, that he flew Air Force One to a town meeting in St. Louis, for another "campaign stop" (where he bashed the Tea Parties). Apparently, he doesn't support the Right of the People to "Peacefully Assemble and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances" as guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution. Doesn't he realize he won the election and can stop campaigning now? Air Force One also did that infamous low altitude fly over of Manhattan for a Photo Op. The fly over put lower Manhattan into panic. I guess they haven't forgotten about 9/11 after all. How many pounds of carbon dioxide did that stunt put into the atmosphere? Did you ever notice that Government official motorcades are all the made up of "evil" SUVs. Where are the Prius's?
Now for some FACTS about the global climate. The arctic ice cap is actually bigger by an area the size of California than it was a year ago (because their calculations were wrong) and was recently found to be twice as thick as they thought, Antarctica is actually getting colder over most of the continent, and the warmest year ever recorded was 1998 and has been cooling ever since.
"But, Jon, the consensus of scientists around the world is that Climate Warming is occurring and we need to do something." OK, back in the 1400's, the consensus of scientists was that the world was flat and we all know how that turned out.
