“Remember Eric at our judgment time, the final Yom Kippur has been given…[y]ou’re an abomination, you receive my bullets in your office, remember they will be placed in your heads. You and your children are Lucifer’s abomination.”-- Norman Leboon Sr
O.J. Simpson was heard to say that he would look for the “real” killers of his deceased wife and her friend Ron Goldman after he was acquitted of their murders.
Ironically, Mr. Simpson’s search was cut short when he landed in state prison in Nevada over a memorabilia dispute involving trophies of his illustrious football career. Giving new and unintended meaning to the phrase what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Maybe it was only me who saw a parallel between Mr. Simpson’s looking for the “real” killers and Democrats who after they passed and signed their new health care law allegedly received threats of violence. Assisted by the media’s unfounded attempt to lay those allegations at the feet of Republicans Democrats attempted to suggest to our minds that Republicans were the source of threats against Congress.
To date there have been no arrest of a Republican affiliate or a Republican Racist, Sexist or Hatemonger for threats against Democrat lawmakers however when we turn our attention to the “real” haters we find a Barry Hussein Soetoro supporter who donated on back-to-back days in June 2008, $255 and $250 to Obama for America.
The arrest is the most serious in a string of threats of violence against lawmakers in wake of the divisive health care vote.-- JAKE SHERMAN
This genius posted his vile anti-Semitic death threats against Republican Congressman Eric Cantor on YouTube. He has admitted to have posted over 2000 threatening videos.
According to FBI affidavit this anti-Semantic Democrat hatemonger is the “son of the god of Enoch” also known as Norman Leboon Sr. (see article)
So while HLS Janet Napolitano is hunting down Political Conservatives, Military Veterans and Conservative Christians there are leftwing radicals who support her agenda and her ideology that are more than happy to threaten Republicans over her administration’s behalf.
And while the president is more than happy to characterize small town Americans as bitter clingers of their bibles and their guns, it appears that there are those in his own party that can’t tell the difference between a rhetorical flourish and a metaphorical call to take a gun to a political fight if Republicans have a knife.
This of course was a Health bill. It was also a Jobs bill, an economic recovery bill, it was deficit reduction bill, it was anti-discrimination bill. It was truly a bill of rights. And now it is the law of the land.—Sen Harry Reid
"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."--Jesus the Messiah Lk 23:34
The healthcare bill that your Congress and your president just signed into law is a little bit of this and a little bit of that according to Sens. Harry Reid and Max Baucus. It’s a jobs bill, an economic recovery bill, a deficit reduction bill, a student loan bill, an anti-discrimination bill and oh yeah it’s a health bill too. (see 46secs Video)
Sen. Baucus (see 47 sec video)
This is in fact a timed release stealth bill meant to minimize; cost, tax increases and its punitive nature only in its beginning. And that is to lessen its impact on president Soetoro’s reelection bid. This bill is designed to come into full realization only after president Soetoro secures a second election if in fact he can.
The bills have been carefully crafted so that the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) can declare them cost-saving. But in reality, patients would be responsible for an additional $210 billion in direct costs over the 10-year budget projection window and an even greater increase in total costs.
This information comes from the CBO itself but it isn't included in the analysis of health care reform, because the figure was surreptitiously tagged onto another bill.— Nirit Weiss
Many of you don’t know its name. It is officially called the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. And it is 906 pages of treachery against the America people. It is an omnibus bill chuck full of surreptitious legislation that does things which the American people are not aware. If they were made aware of the many damaging aspects of this bill many of them would fight to repeal it and further fight to end the careers of those who made this un-Constitutional and unethical bill possible.
Contrary to what the president says this bill will raise your premiums.
"When it becomes law, families will save on their premiums," President Obama declared in his weekly radio address before Christmas, pitching his health care reform.
If only that were so. Nobody who tracks health insurance sees any sign of softening premium prices for people who already have insurance, ObamaCare or not. Premiums for 2010 were up 10% and are predicted to keep growing at the same rate in coming years.-- David Whelan
This bill is un-constitutional, this bill pays off unions, this bill nationalizes health care and this bill is headed for numerous law suits challenging its constitutionality.
There should be multiple lawsuits brought before the U. S. Supreme Court to strike down this unconscionable and unconstitutional Democrat power grab.
50 states should declare their sovereign rights under the 9th and 10th Amendments, thumb their noses at an arrogant federal government that is hopelessly out of control and refuse to implement any provision of the Health Care Bill. Obama care should be DOA in every state legislature in America.
Employers, at every level, and en masse, should vehemently resist this takeover of the free market and refuse to participate in any manner on behalf of their employees.
Insurance companies should tell the federal government to go to Hell and stop all insurance coverage in protest until the government capitulates to the will of a free people.
Doctors and other health care providers should cease providing any coverage to anyone until the Federal Government cries uncle and backs down. --Ron Ewart
And finally your medical records will be exposed to risk, e.g. hackers and government agencies particularly the IRS
Mr. Obama said in his 2009 speech, "will cut waste, eliminate red tape and reduce the need to repeat expensive medical tests [and] save lives by reducing the deadly but preventable medical errors that pervade our health-care system."
But electronic medical records won't accomplish any of these goals if patients fear sharing information with doctors because they know it isn't private. When patients realize they can't control who sees their electronic health records, they will be far less likely to tell their doctors about drinking problems, feelings of depression, sexual problems, or exposure to sexually transmitted diseases. --DEBORAH C. PEEL
This bill was forged in secret behind closed doors. It is over nine hundred pages that no one has read voted on in a straight partisan manner signed by hyper partisan president and this bill is much, much more than health care as told by Sens. Reid and Baucus.
This is the problem with this debate. Things that are made up and then no opportunity for someone to clarify—Congressman Anthony Weiner
Congressman Anthony Weiner is as good as, if not better than any other Democrat that is currently lying about Obamacare, the healthcare reform which Democrats have recently made law. Democrats have constructed a “Debunk the Truth” approach to defend everything that they are doing to change America as we know it.
The debunking the truth approach is the basic exchanging of reality as we currently know it to a reality more in keeping with what Democrats think reality should be in a Liberal Fascist Utopia.
The way that we get to the Liberal Fascist Utopia is for Democrats to clarify our misunderstandings about the world in which we live. In other words, you mustn’t use your education, your ability to reason, your capacity for logic or your common sense. You have only to accept what a Liberal Democrat says is the truth about a matter above what the facts are and we are there, a Liberal Fascist Utopia.
In that effort Democrats have decided to use the tactic of calling anyone who attempts to get to the truth of what Obamacare, or any other of their changes to our government, liars.
By so labeling these concerned Americans; confused, misinformed and dishonest liars Democrats throw the health care debate into a realm in which their less than capable constituency can't fathom who is really telling the truth.
Moreover by using the puerile tactic, “I’m not a liar, you’re a liar” exchange Democrats are confusing the issue of health care reform for their sycophantic followers. According to Democrats their mission is to “debunk” the wrong and false things said about Obamacare. Their method is to filibuster every conversation with a number of dishonest rhetorical maneuvers.
First they attempt to establish themselves as the truth; second they attempt to establish their opponents as mistaken, wrong, dishonest, unreasonable, unclear about the facts or they simply intimate that their opponents are just plain liars.
When you say something -- it is no different than any of the various things we have in our life. If you go littering and that's a $50 fine, no one is following you around to get your litter.
Why is this such a difficult concept?—Congressman Anthony Weiner-- Attempting to draw a false parallel between laws governing littering and the Democrat new health care law
See several of these ploys in action as used by the smooth talking New York Congressman Anthony Weiner. (Warning the following video is extremely frustrating for those of you that who appreciate truth and honest debate.) (See 5:45 min video)
As Bill O’Reilly discovered there is no reasonable discussion with a Democrat that is in “debunk the truth” mode as Congressman Weiner was clearly in.
Apparently being called a liar disturbed O’Reilly so much that he felt he had to revisit the issue just to establish that he was not lying or mistaken about the facts. (see 4:21min video)
Ironically there is one thing that Congressman Weiner said that is absolutely true. The problem with this debate is things are being made up and then there is no opportunity for someone to clarify.
Democrats have used the bully pulpit of the White house, their majority in Congress and the Liberal media to make up things that are complete lies about Obamacare and there is no opportunity for someone, anyone to clarify these lies.
Those who attempt to clarify are simply mislabeled as liars as was Bill O’Reilly by Congressman Weiner. It’s simply Orwellian when a liar calls someone a liar!
You heard of a term called Dead Reckoning, is a Navigational term usually used in Maritime law. And what it is when you decide to figure out where you’re going base on where you are, right now and where you’ve been, rather than using navigation tools.
Sometimes it’s used when people don’t have access to navigation tools or they don’t use the stars. And what happens is they tend to get lost. Because they are frequently going from a false premise they’re already lost. And they’re under the impression that they are somewhere.
I don’t know if I’m articulating this correctly, dead reckoning, but if you go from a false premise which a lot of Conservatism does. And then you move on from there, you’re going to continue to stack falsehood from falsehood.
And a lot at sea when people get lost allot is because they use dead reckoning they are making assumptions about where they are and where they’ve been.
Because they don’t have navigational tools at the ready and then they keep going wrong. Does that make sense? And I feel like people like Elizabeth Hasselbeck and a lot of right-wingers, dead reckoning is the problem. The point of origin is false. –Janeane Garofalo
Rosie O’Donnell and Janeane Garofalo are conditioned like the left-wing radicals that occupy the White house. What is ironic is Garofalo uses false premises about Conservatives to explain her theory of Conservative Dead Reckoning. To them Conservatives are wrong insensitive mindless sycophants that resist truth.
Of course truth as the two of them and the far-left progressive radicals that are in charge of our government see it. So to hear the two give their biasly skewed view of Conservatives and Conservatism is entertaining on one hand and frightening on the other. (see 5:09min video)
Hearing O’Donnell and Garofalo speak shows that there is no chance for Liberal and Conservative bipartisanship and neither should there be because the two are mutually exclusive.
This president, his administration and the Democrat controlled Congress for an entire year has shown Americans that they have contempt for Americans that do not share their liberal progressive values. They have also shown Americans that they mean to destroy Conservatism which they disagree with and Conservatives whom they believe are incorrigibly wrong insensitive and resist to truth. Their truth.
These two women would be funny if the president of the United States didn’t think just like them. For example he has singled out Rush Limbaugh and his has called out Fox News like them. He is no different than O'Donnell and Garofalo.
President Barack Obama speaks to workers at a Caterpillar plant about creating jobs and stimulating the economy February 12, 2009 in East Peoria, Illinois.
I gotta tell you this and everybody says that I shouldn’t say it, but I gotta tell you the way it is. This president is a real, slow, learner. — Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman
In his State of the Union address just months ago president Barry Hussein Soetoro said that he “gets it” America and that his focus will be on jobs. Yet after an unsuccessful first year of pushing his health care bill—a bill that Americans come out in major opposition against last summer, the president still hasn’t learned. He is continuing his health care push. He is doing this in spite of the fact that he and Democrats claimed that they would work on the behalf of the American people to create jobs.
The president gets it, so do we. The president said that jobs is the number one issue before us in 2010 and we can’t agree more. In fact the three top issues on our agenda this year are, jobs, jobs and jobs.—Sen. Charles Schumer
(see 2:14min video)
So what is this president doing? He is continuing his Obamacare quest and he is starting up an attempt to get Illegal Aliens amnesty legislation passed.
These things are the far left Progressive’s trifecta; Universal Health Care, Gay’s in the Military (which he proposed weeks ago) and Illegal Alien amnesty. This is every dream and agenda item that Liberals Democrats and Progressives have attempting to force on the American people for decades.
And most of these things are job killers. The very antithesis of what our nation and economy needs now is a multi-trillion dollar health care burden on tax payers, or 40 million Illegals granted citizenship. (This is an obvious attempt to curry favor with special interest Hispanic groups.)
Illegals will undoubtedly weigh on an alright strained economy, or they will negatively affect our jobs market and health care cost while skewing U.S. elections toward more Liberal policies which in turn will surely continue our downward spiral into socialism and big government.
All of these Liberal Progressive acts will irreparable damage America in the long term so that Democrats can make short term gains. These are careless and reckless goals of the Democrat Party.
Goals much like president Soetoro’s careless and reckless words that devastated the economy of Las Vegas, Nevada. Where twice the president admonished Americans not to go spend money in Las Vegas in response the mayor of La Vegas Oscar Goodman had a few choice words for the president. (see 1:43min video)
Yes mayor Goodman Barry Hussein Soetoro is a very slow learner indeed!
Just like Vice president Joe Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned us in the 2008 campaign when they both told us he was not ready to be president… they were right!
I am not distressed hearing of the “threats” made to congressmen who voted for this travesty the Obama administration calls, “Health Care Reform”.
What do these total idiots know of the desires of the voting public? They have set themselves up as “gods”, claiming to know what is in our best interest, while totally disregarding our desires. They certainly can’t claim that they haven’t been barraged with demands to “Kill the Bill”
Though I don’t personally advocate violence on any level, these arrogant SOBs need to have the fear of God forcibly injected into their lives, just as they have injected their wills on us. I can fully understand that frustration can bring some people to desperation and cause them to strike out, as wrong as that is.
This country has always prided itself on the “peaceful transfer of power” after election cycles. The present Socialist Democrat administration is not encouraging this peaceful transfer in the least. They are sowing the seeds of their own destruction...............preferably at the polls ... but for some, any way that it can be accomplished.
Before the War for Independence from a tyrannical government, our then representatives were honest men, interested in the welfare of the people they represented. One of the rallying cries was, “taxation without representation is tyranny”. Well ........ this is what we now have. Buy Health Insurance, or pay a tax.... blatantly unconstitutional! Those who elected to thwart the will of the people in 1773, were literally tarred and feathered and driven out of town on a rail. That is what we need today.
Our so-called representatives have totally forgotten their loyalty. They no longer represent us, but rather the “party”, and the plea of a Socialist leader, who actually forced his party members to vote to “save his Presidency”. This was not about you Mr. Obama, but about us! When you promised change, you made dozens of other promises............ALL of which you have broken.
We will not allow you to bring us any further to the left. Your days as someone who can hurt our country will end in November 2010...... when your majority in both houses of Congress evaporates! Then you will be “just another community organizer” with time on his hands and not too many friends. The Republicans have promised you the same amount of cooperation that you have given to them.............nothing! You will sit out the balance of your term as a lame duck, unable to get your lunch order processed to your liking.
Once we have more conservative individuals in both the congress and the White House, we will begin repairing the damage you have caused to our economy, defense, health care, and country.
You socialists are hoping that by November, the anger will have cooled and you will retain control. Don’t even go there.......... you are toast!
“Well first of all then we would have to say that the American public overwhelmingly voted for Socialism when they elected president Obama.
Let’s not act as though the president had told the American people… the president promised the American people health reform when he ran he was overwhelming elected running on that and he has delivered what he promised.”—The Reverend Al Sharpton
Americans Voted for Socialism when they voted for Barry Hussein Soetoro. That is according to the Reverend Al Sharpton. I bet that you didn’t know that. Or maybe you did. According to Sharpton president Soetoro told the American people during his campaigning that he would change a Constitution-based federal republic into a Socialist Nation State.(see 1:11min video)
See there, the American people wanted to completely trash the Constitution of the United States of America and replace it with Deem and Pass, and all of the other wonderful progressive things that the Democrats are making up as they go.
Which is really interesting because before the election Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose commiserating together confessed that the American people really didn't know much about Barry Hussein Soetoro (see 4:09min video)
Sharpton suggested that the recent health care bill is just the beginning of the campaign promised socialism that president Barry Hussein Soetoro campaigned upon.
Sharpton seemed to be surprised that Americans didn’t realize that a vote for Soetoro was a vote for Socialism. Gee I guess the American people are just stupid like that.
Sharpton wondered why anyone would be complaining that Democrat’s health care passed and that America is moving toward socialism.
I’m sure glad Rev. Sharpton cleared that up for us comrades!
Both sides would well to remember the dignity of the House—Speaker of the House
On the night that Democrats defeated other Democrats to pass their historic Health Care bill one outcome became certain in this most historic of occasions. That outcome is a Blue Dog Democrats, or Fiscal Conservative Democrats are nothing more than Liberals when the arm twisting is done and the votes are counted.
Everything that pro-life Democrats, fiscal Democrats and Blue Dog Democrats were supposed to represent was promptly deserted when the gang of Capital Hill closed ranks against the American people.
"As I've said to my colleagues go in the door. The door's locked? Go to the gate. The gate's locked? Climb over the fence.' "'It's too high? Pole vault in. That doesn't work? Parachute in.' We have to get this done for the American people one way or the other."—Nancy Pelosi
But as the Speaker of the House said Democrats would do anything and everything up to and including selling their souls to pass this bill. Unfortunately they did sell their souls, and any dignity or moral standing that they may have had. (which was very little to start with) (see 15sec video)
And now that the Democrat Health Care Olympics are over Ms. Pelosi you and your gang have all drug tested positive. Therefore Democrats may yet to be disqualified for cheating the American people by this health care vote.
On a night that was the nadir in Democrat politics, contrary to the celebrations, this was a night that Democrats were willing to betray all of their supposed values so that they could be jumped into the Pelosi gang, the Pelosi Capitol Hill “Dead Rabbits.”
In spite of that on this night two Republican politicians rose head and shoulders above the unscrupulous lock stepping Pelosi “Dead Rabbits,” Congressmen John Boehner and Paul Ryan.
Congressman Paul Ryan spoke of reclaiming the American idea.
The European social welfare state promoted by this legislation is not sustainable. This is not who we are and it is not who we should become. –Congressman Paul Ryan (see 4:38min video)
And look at how this bill was written; can you say it was done openly, with transparency and accountably without backroom deals as strike behind closed doors? Hidden from the people? HELL NO YOU CAN’T!
Have you read the bill? Have you read the reconciliation bill? Have you read the managers amendment? HELL NO YOU HAVEN’T!—Congressman John Boehner
Congressman John Boehner message was more direct and forceful. Rep. Boehner’s unheeded message to the Democrats was to take stock of the consequences that would befall America if they voted for the health care bill that they hadn’t read and dishonestly put upon the American people. (see 3:48min video)
Democrats sold out the American people just to say that they made history. President Soetoro said he will sign this bill today and with his signature this bill will be as illegitimate as his presidency.
When president Soetoro is found to be the Usurper that he is, this bill as well as everything that he has done will be invalidated.
This whole sorted drama has exposed Democrats for the un-honorable and unscrupulous people that they are and the Democrat Party as the undignified Party of corruption that it is.
For the first time, most Americans would be required to purchase insurance, and face penalties if they refused. Much of the money in the bill would be devoted to subsidies to help families at incomes of up to $88,000 a year pay their premiums.--DAVID ESPO
Democrats sicken an already weaken American economy with their 219 to 212 vote where Democrats passed their signature bill against the expressed wishes of the American people late Sunday night and with as much political cover as they could muster without any Republicans to point out that, ‘they voted for it too!’ (see article)
Whatever is wrong or right with this bill lays squarely at the feet of president Barry Hussein Soetoro and Democrats. (see 2:46min video)
ON Thursday, the Congressional Budget Office reported that, if enacted, the latest health care reform legislation would, over the next 10 years, cost about $950 billion, but because it would raise some revenues and lower some costs, it would also lower federal deficits by $138 billion. In other words, a bill that would set up two new entitlement spending programs — health insurance subsidies and long-term health care benefits — would actually improve the nation’s bottom line.
Could this really be true? How can the budget office give a green light to a bill that commits the federal government to spending nearly $1 trillion more over the next 10 years?
The answer, unfortunately, is that the budget office is required to take written legislation at face value and not second-guess the plausibility of what it is handed. So fantasy in, fantasy out.-- DOUGLAS HOLTZ-EAKIN
With lies and deception Democrats and their president have began the Europeanization of America with false numbers as pointed out by Douglas Holtz-Eakin. (see article)
With this bill Democrats strengthen the IRS with new enforcement powers if Americans fail to comply and buy government health care. (see report)
In reality, if you strip out all the gimmicks and budgetary games and rework the calculus, a wholly different picture emerges: The health care reform legislation would raise, not lower, federal deficits, by $562 billion.
Gimmick No. 1 is the way the bill front-loads revenues and backloads spending. That is, the taxes and fees it calls for are set to begin immediately, but its new subsidies would be deferred so that the first 10 years of revenue would be used to pay for only 6 years of spending.
This is a political victory of Democrat by Democrats for Democrats as this was always a fight between Democrats with a little conscience and Democrats without a conscience. Democrats without a conscience won. Now there are no Democrats with a conscience.
The American people are now left sick with the cost and the repercussions of what Democrats have wrought on this country.
Professor Jones also conceded the possibility that the world was warmer in medieval times than now – suggesting global warming may not be a man-made phenomenon.--Jonathan Petre
He was the go-to-guy the preeminent scientist in the field of Global warming. He housed the famous hockey stick data which the theory of man-made or anthropogenic Global Warming is based on.
Prof. Phil Jones formerly director of the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit has stepped down because of controversy that surrounds his science. He can’t seem to find the hockey stick data, or most of the scientific research which the theory of global warming is based on. Prof. Jones said he had no idea that 20 years later he would be held to account over them’. (see article)
But have no fear professor what you don’t know or can’t prove, president Barry Hussein Soetoro who never let the absence of facts get in his way was happy to channel Al Gore’s dooms day scenarios without actual scientific evidence.
In a Nevada town hall meeting February 19, 2010, President Obama took up the controversial topic of manmade climate change like many of us would like him to talk about his sealed documents and birth certificate with the same lack of inhibition.
[Prof. Jones] further admitted that in the last 15 years there had been no ‘statistically significant’ warming—Jonathan Petre
(see 2:02min video)
Now that president Soetoro has cleared up the misunderstanding about science that doesn’t exist maybe he could clear up that other little matter that seems not to exist. (see here, here, here and here.)
President Soetoro can you explain how someone who is constitutionally ineligible can be the president of the United States of America? Hum?
Perhaps Prof. Jones isn’t the only one who needs to step down because of lack of data and faulty or non-existing records!
Clearly the president left his pants on the ground in this interview and looked somewhat foolish… no he looked absolutely ridiculous
In an unbelievable interview and using his Bully-pulpit; president Barry Hussein Soetoro channeled Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi for over fifteen straight minutes where he misdirected, over spoke, counterpointed, redefined reality, blamed Republicans, blamed the Bush administration and attempted to explain away how health care is being processed by a Democrat Congress and what its passing would do to the American economy. (see Misleading talkingpoints)
In this video you can actually see how Soetoro was attempting to control how health care is thought about in this country. In the end he got frustrated because Bret Baier of Fox News would not give him a free pass on his Alice in Wonderland notions on health care.
At one point Baier had to protest that the president was filibustering the interview. (see 15min interview)
Clearly the president left his pants on the ground in this interview and looked somewhat foolish…no he looked absolutely ridiculous attempting to defend what he said in the past which now conflicts with what he is saying and doing now. Not to even mention that he couldn’t defend the process that the Democrat Congress is using to pass his healthcare reform other than to say that he’s not worried about the process.
Well, he should be worried as every American should be worried because Congress is planning on using an unscrupulous method, the Slaughter rule, to pass an unconstitutional law. The president should be worried more-so because he took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. Or one would think that he would be.
Pelosi: Is she out of control enough to deem pass health care passed without a vote?
“The American people don’t care about process.”— Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House
When it come to passing Healthcare that’s exactly what the president and Speaker of the House are saying!
The Democrat controlled Congress is about to perform the most unethical act ever in the history of Congress and they blame you the American people. Nobody in the House even wants to vote for this bill. (see article)
In what is the most important legislative fight in easily the last 50 to 60 years Democrats are contemplating changing the rules in the middle of the fight. And as everyone knows that’s wrong!
Congressman David Dreier House Rules Republican ranking member explains in this Fox News interview. (see 4:56mins video)
And oh yes, Democrats claim that the American people are as equally unethical as they are in Congress. It’s their claim that the American people really don’t care if they change the rules to pass an unconstitutional bill by unethical congressional methods. (see article)
So Ms. Pelosi is planning on just pretending that the healthcare bill was voted on in a kind of “virgin miracle passing” and have the president knowingly sign this un-immaculate deception into law. If this should happen some American patriot should sue that the courts will “deem” both this unethical process and this corrupt bill unconstitutional.(see article)
After laying the groundwork for a decisive vote this week on the Senate's health-care bill, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested Monday that she might attempt to pass the measure without having members vote on it.
Instead, Pelosi (D-Calif.) would rely on a procedural sleight of hand: The House would vote on a more popular package of fixes to the Senate bill; under the House rule for that vote, passage would signify that lawmakers "deem" the health-care bill to be passed.
The tactic -- known as a "self-executing rule" or a "deem and pass" -- has been commonly used, although never to pass legislation as momentous as the $875 billion health-care bill. It is one of three options that Pelosi said she is considering for a late-week House vote, but she added that she prefers it because it would politically protect lawmakers who are reluctant to publicly support the measure. -- Lori Montgomery and Paul Kane, the Washington Post
First the president characterized Americans as self-centered greedy opportunist who will overlook visible and apparent corruption just as long as there are some goodies in it for them at the end of the “process.” (see article)
“With all of the [Healthcare] lobbying and horse trading, the process left most Americans wondering, ‘What’s in it for me?’ ”—president Barry Hussein Soetoro
And now Ms. Pelosi claims that the American people are just low down, outright lawless and will disregard any underhanded tactic up to and including the very shredding of the constitution just to get what they want.
"As I've said to my colleagues go in the door. The door's locked? Go to the gate. The gate's locked? Climb over the fence.' "'It's too high? Pole vault in. That doesn't work? Parachute in.' We have to get this done for the American people one way or the other."—Nancy Pelosi
So as it is obvious that Ms. Pelosi and president Soetoro have no qualms about doing the unethical to achieve the unconstitutional. According to Speaker Pelosi and president Soetoro the American people are just as corrupted as they are and will welcome these unethical and unconstitutional behaviors largely because these nefarious Congressional machinations will result in goodies for the greedy and corrupt American people.
It’s so nice to be thought of so highly by our elected officials isn’t it Americans, why if we weren’t so corrupt we would be highly insulted. And we would throw Pelosi, Soetoro and their accomplices out of office now wouldn’t we?
I can’t wait until this November 2010 and 2012! Congressman Paul Ryan for President!
Justice Department officials say that when senators were considering Eric Holder's nomination to be attorney general last year, he didn't given them all the legal briefs he had signed from his time in private practice.—The Associated Press
Being confirmed Attorney General of the United States of America is a tricky thing. It’s a little like playing poker. You gotta hold your cards close to the vest. In AG Eric Holder’s situation one had to hold seven cases, which he was involved doing legal work for terror detainees, close to the vest and out of view of the Senate committee that was considering confirming him to the position of Attorney General.(not that in would have mattered anyway) (see article)
As part of the confirmation process, Holder submitted a list of all such legal briefs to the committee. But that list did not include filings in seven cases.—The Associated Press
And here the real beauty of AG Holder’s deceit, if by chance or by purpose, it ever becomes a problem or if it ever comes up that he withheld information in order to be confirmed (because it is now after the fact and he’s already in office) there is not much anyone can do about it, now is there?
So now he can reveal to the Democrat controlled Senate Judiciary Committee that he had a little “ ‘lapse’ in turning over copies of the legal filings” at his confirmation and his mentioning it now will suffice to put all right with the world as Democrats, Liberals and Progressives see it.
And then there the matter of the “al Qaeda7” part of the nine attorneys that AG Holder has employed in the DoJ which Holder refused to name or even to tell the America people if these attorneys are in any way, shape or form working on terrorists related matters since these attorneys defended terrorists while in private practice. (see :48sec video)
Employing these attorneys has Investors.com asking, DOJ: Department of Jihad?
What’s even more curious is the fact that Holder would not give the names of these attorneys yet he was considering charging the Bush attorneys who give advice regarding what constituted torture with criminal offenses. (see article)
A new Justice Department report about Bush lawyers who legitimized torture techniques is "devastating," a source tells The Daily Beast's Scott Horton, and contrary to The New York Times, criminal charges aren't off the table—Attorney General Eric Holder just has to make up his mind.—Scott Horton
Foxnews has reported that the nine DoJ attorneys possibly recruited by Holder with possible conflict of interest because they worked to defend terrorists in their private practice are:
Jonathan Cedarbaum, now an official with the Office of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department Joseph Guerra, now Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General at the Justice Department Eric Columbus, a former WilmerHale attorney who is now senior counsel in the Office of the Deputy Attorney General. Karl Thompson, an official with the Office of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department Tali Farhadian, now an official in the Office of the Attorney General, Beth Brinkmann, now Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Justice Department’s Civil Division Tony West, the Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department’s Civil Division.

Assistant DoJ Attorney General Ron Weich defending the nine Justice Department lawyers who previously represented terror suspects, said that they contributed to court briefs in detainee-related cases or otherwise helped advocate for detainees. Weich added that he thought that any suggestions of a "conflict of interest" are "an apparent misapprehension" of legal standards, adding that all political appointees have taken pledges to meet ethical standards.
That’s right this administration and this Congress are supposed to be the most ethical in the history of the United States according to Nancy Pelosi and Barry Hussein Soetoro.
The fact of the matter is the Attorney General of the United States of America withheld information from the Senate Judiciary Committee responsible for confirming him to office which is a gross violation of ethical standards. How anyone connected with the DoJ can be speaking about ethical standards after that is beyond me.
It’s time for Eric Holder to know when to fold them and just walk away!
It makes me weep when I realize our Nation is being destroyed from within…
The leadership of the Democrat Party have become exactly what they said they said they were running against. They have become exactly what we all ran against. You can’t effectively govern this country without the consent of the governed.
The entire Nation has said let’s rewrite the health care bill. Let’s find what we can all agree upon. ‘No, no, no, no we’re going to ram this down the throats of the American people and anyone who stands in the way of doing that, is going to be smeared and they’re going to be kicked out of Congress and we’re going to have people like Steny Hoyer lying in the Press.’ –Former Democrat Congressman Eric Messa
It’s being called the final push for health care. What it really is, is an example of what happens when Liberals or Progressives come to power. Democrat’s health care reform is Fascism hidden in a white medical lab coat and we all know it.
The only question remaining is will Democrats successfully convince enough Democrats to betray this country for a short term victory to aid Democrat Party leaders while helping the president, who has vowed to fundamentally unloosen American from its Constitutional moorings, passing this health care reform bill will be the beginning of that fundamental change.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi confidently boast that she and Democrats will pass health care reform. (see 1:30min video)
Of course the brow beating, arm twisting, coercion, bribes and changing of Congressional rules that Pelosi, Reid and Obama are using to force this rejected (by the American People) bill through Congress and on the American people is not indicative of hope and change promised.
These tactics are indicative of desperate Pols who intend to spread their un-American ideological agenda on a yet unsuspecting America which still believes that this is nothing more than a mere political partisan fight rather than the very undermining of the United States of America that it really is.
Sen. Scott Brown explains what this bill actually means in the GOP weekly address. (transcript) (see 5:26min video)
Finally former Congressman Eric Massa who claimed that Democrats forced him out of the Congress because of his no vote (which would have been able to stop this) tells a story of the complete corrupting of our government by the Progressives who are now in control. ( 4:17min audio)
Former Congressman Massa’s abrupt exit from Congress is indicative of the power of those who will stop at nothing to fundamentally change America. Let’s remember that one of the reasons that homosexuality was frowned on in the military and government is because it was thought that an individual could be compromised by their homosexuality.
Apparently the original thoughts for excluding homosexuals from the military and government were correct, because Democrats did in fact used Congressman’s homosexuality against him to blackmail him and force him out of Congress. Just as it was believed could happen. It did happen!
Using homosexuality against a Democrat to pass health care reform shows that Democrats will stop at nothing to pass this Fascist legislation.
It also shows that Democrats put their Fascist ideology above the good of this Nation just as they did when they opposed the war in Iraq and said in was lost.
Al Gore and Dr Rajendra Kumar Pachauri, chairman of the IPCC won 2007 Nobel Peace Prize
It is true that the climate panel published a flawed overestimate of the melting rate of debris-covered glaciers in the Himalayas, and used information about the Netherlands provided to it by the government, which was later found to be partly inaccurate.
In addition, e-mail messages stolen from the University of East Anglia in Britain showed that scientists besieged by an onslaught of hostile, make-work demands from climate skeptics may not have adequately followed the requirements of the British freedom of information law. –Al Gore
Like Global Warming is Climate Change, to Al Gore and Dr. Rajendra Pachauri Scientific Fraud is just a mistake, which they intend to perpetrate whether or not their claims prove to be fraudulent.
Gore admitted that the climate panel published (in his words) a flawed overestimate of an alleged Himalayas glacier melting rate. And he admitted that Prof. Phil Jones of the University of East Anglia did not comply with the British freedom of information law. But according to Gore these things are mistakes, they’re just misunderstandings.
Yeah it’s been all one great big misunderstand right Mr. Gore? If left to your own devices Mr. Gore you the UN IPCC headed by Dr. Pachauri and your cap and trade consortium would have imposed such draconian global carbon taxes on the people of the world, it would make the machines of the movie The Matrix look like baby sitters instead of the practitioners of human husbandry that they were.
The “mistakes” that you refer to Mr. Gore are, in the least, gross violations of the scientific method or at most blatant criminality. Destroying evidence and/or refusing to turn over documentation as required by Britain’s freedom of information law are criminal acts. These are the things that Prof. Phil Jones of the University of East Anglia in Britain is accused of doing your apologetics notwithstanding. (see article)
Basing claims that the glaciers in the Himalayas were melting on untested and unproven speculation is not a flaw in science, that claim is criminal scientific incompetence.
The act of holding the entire fraudulent scam of Anthropogenic Global Warming up as settled science and defending it by casting aspersion on the reputations of anyone who questioned either the source of your information or the accuracy of that information is a criminal enterprise of which you the UN IPCC and your supporters should be round up and tried at the International Court at the Hague for crimes against humanity.
Yet the most pathetic thing about your global warming scare Mr. Gore is how you continue to couch your questionable “concerns” for the planet, the economy and our national security in the fake disaster scenarios which you and your carbon trading profiteer partners have cooked up to stampede the world’s people into a global taxation scheme that will enrich you and your partners by this global fraud for cash and world power.
The fact is Mr. Gore you are the front man for an international Carbon trading ring that plans to tax the air we breathe like the Federal Reserve taxes America for printing our money. A constitutional power that is given to our government which if the government did it we wouldn’t have a national debt. I’ve posted on your scheme over the years; here, here, here and here.
I, for one, genuinely wish that the climate crisis were an illusion. But unfortunately, the reality of the danger we are courting has not been changed by the discovery of at least two mistakes in the thousands of pages of careful scientific work over the last 22 years by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.—Al Gore
The climate crisis, as you call it, Mr. Gore IS an illusion. It is a made up scheme to enrich a few at the expense of the many. It is a new revenue stream of carbon credits for sell and trade which will make those who trade in mere stocks and bonds envious at the trillions of dollars made on this mere con.
Cap and Trading on carbon emissions is a con since carbon dioxide is neither a pollutant nor is it tied to the temperature increases that Al Gore claims is Global warming. (see here and here)
Cap and Trade is bottom line what the Climate Change debate is all about Mr. Gore, usurious obscene Corporate profits based on trumped up science and the public’s trusting ignorance.
It’s the new green movement; enslaving the people of the world for the dollar bill or euro or whatever world currency that is to come. It’s all a fraud, an illusion, that you, Mr. Gore may not have invented but you have been instrumental in coordinating world corporations and world governments in this scheme of generating a new financial system which will be complete detached from any regulatory body or legal controlling authority. The people will have no control over it because there is no political system in place that gives the people control over its decision makers.
Whether it is called Global Warming, Climate Change or Cap and Trade it’s all the same thing! It is Fascist control of people through unaccountable and unidentifiable global entities which will have the ability to control every aspect of human life.
president Soetoro stomping for health care in final push
"Anyone who would stand before you and say well, if you pass health care reform, next year's health care premiums are going down, I don't think is telling the truth. I think it is likely they would go up, but what we're trying to do is slow the rate of increase." —Sen. Dick Durbin
Democrat Dick Durbin Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) called the leader of his Party a liar.
Melanie Hunter-Omar reported in CNSNews.com that Sen. Dick Durbin a very highly placed Democrat contradicted President Barry Hussein Soetoro on whether the health care reform bill will lead to a decrease in health care premiums. According to Hunter-Omar, Durbin claimed that rates would go up, while the president is campaigning all across America claiming that Congress passing his health care plan would result in rates that would go down. (see article)
Durbin on the floor of the Senate was attempting to be truthful about Health Care cost (see :13 sec. video)
The president on the other hand must still believe that he’s campaigning because he’s stomping for health care like he’s on a permanent campaign. Even though he snapped at Sen. John McCain in the Health Care summit just days ago telling Sen. McCain that the campaigning was over.
Here’s the downside of why campaigning again may not be a good idea for president Soetoro. Stomping for health care like the president is doing just may remind people of all of the campaign promises that he didn’t keep; ending the war, closing Gitmo in a year, that he wouldn’t employ lobbyist in his administration, etc, etc, etc.
"Our cost-cutting measures mirror most of the proposals in the current Senate bill, which reduces most people’s premiums, and brings down our deficit by up to 1 trillion dollars over the next decade because we’re spending our health care dollars more wisely.”—president Barry Hussein Soetoro
(see :16sec. video)
The president is quick to tell us that what he is quoting are not his numbers, ah yeah because there just might be a little belief problem between the American people and this president. So it’s probably best that he cites someone else’s numbers for believability sake.
However, maybe one should cite them correctly Mr. president. The CBO’s analysis of the final Senate health care bill, as reported by Melanie Hunter-Omar, indicates that your health care reform would impose a mandatory $15,000 annual fee on middle-class families that earn greater than 400 percent annually of the federal poverty level. That means $88,200 for a family of four.
That means Mr. president that according to the source that you cited there would be an increase of premium cost on the middle-class not a cost decrease. Mr. president I hate to remind you of this but in your campaigning you promised not to raise taxes on the middle class by one penny. Maybe campaigning and promising when put together isn’t your strong suits Mr. president.
But no worries Mr. Soetoro the next president of the United States of American, in 2012, Rep. Paul Ryan has no problem with believability nor does he need a teleprompter to make him appear to be articulate and in command of this subject matter.
Mr. Ryan knows the health care subject well.
"And, so really what this is more about is ideology than health care policy. Because if this was about health care policy we could get a bipartisan agreement tomorrow. It’s not about health care policy."-- Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)
(see 1:20 min video)
This is what we’ve come to expect from Rep. Ryan. He put his finger on exactly what is wrong with this health care bill Democrats have politicized it like everything else that they have done in the last wasted year. And sadly Mr. president what we have come to expect from you is ultra-partisanship and lies.
That is the reason that Democrats deserve to be swept out of Congress in 2010 and why the Usurper who has spent over One million dollars to remain unconstitutionally in office must be striped of the trappings of power that he never did and does not now deserve.
Well, no, there are some. There are some because they, again, some of it is orchestrated from the Republican headquarters.
Some of it is hijacking the good intentions of lots of people who share some of our concerns that we have about the role of special interests and many Tea Partiers, not that I speak for them, share the view, whether it's -- and Democrats, Republicans and Independents share the view that the recent Supreme Court decision, which greatly empowers the special interests, is something that they oppose.—Nancy Pelosi
I know why Nancy Pelosi believes that the people of San Francisco are stupid. I just don’t know why she thinks we all are.
I have found that if you can’t follow her or if you can’t understand her, it’s not you. No you’ve just been listening to the U.S. Congress’ very own version of that master of miscommunication. Pelosi is the United States’ Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf. You remember al Sahhaf from the Iraqi war don’t you?
I so enjoy listening to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. She reminds me of the final days of Saddam Hussein in Iraq where Saddam’s Minister of misinformation, al-Sahhaf also known as Baghdad Bob, lied to the world about the state of the war in Iraq. He also lied about the fact that American soldiers were about to take Baghdad. Baghdad Bob was completely oblivious of what the reality was. That’s something that he and Pelosi have in common.
No – No what I said at the time is, that they were -- the Republican Party directs a lot of what the Tea Party does, but not everybody in the Tea Party takes direction from the Republican Party. And so there was a lot of, shall we say, Astroturf, as opposed to grassroots.
But, you know, we share some of the views of the Tea Partiers in terms of the role of special interest in Washington, D.C., as -- it just has to stop. And that's why I've fought the special interest, whether it's on energy, whether it's on health insurance, whether it's on pharmaceuticals and the rest. –Nancy Pelosi
On ABC’s This Week on Sunday, February 28th hosted by Elizabeth Vargas, Pelosi channeled Baghdad Bob when asked about statements she make regarding the Conservative movement, The Tea Party.
Pelosi attempted to mitigate her early comments about the group by feigning some commonality and fealty to the Tea Party’s goals and objectives while at the same time reinforce her original statement that it was a fake movement spurred on by the Republican Party. (see transcript)(see 1:23min video)
Pelosi was so deliciously duplicitous that Vargas was totally disarmed and didn’t catch her deception nor did she call Pelosi on her duplicity. Tim Russert would have both caught Pelosi and called her on it. This is what Pelosi said about the Tea Party just months previous: (see 1min video)
Now in comparison please enjoy Baghdad Bob as he attempts to out talk reality by misstating what was actually happening in Iraq just days before the fall of Iraq and the capture of Saddam Hussein (see 9:53 min video)
There is virtually no difference between the reality testing of Baghdad Bob and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. All the more reason to remove Democrats from power, if Pelosi is as demented as Baghdad Bob proved to be, she is doing this country a grave disservice by hold the office and the responsibilities that she now bears being that she is third in line to be president if Soetoro or Vice president Biden can no longer serve.
Baghdad Bob was pathetic to the point of being a laughingstock. Pelosi on the other hand wields too much power and is too recklessly Partisan to take lightly however pathetic she maybe.
Hopefully the voters in her district will see the great damage that she has single handedly caused this nation and will vote her out of office. If voters did that they would be performing a great service to this country. And they would be removing someone who has become a laughingstock who is reflecting on them and our nation.
He is the real deal unlike to the pretender that’s in office today. He knows his stuff and he is not an affirmative action teleprompter baby like the president. He is everything that Barry Hussein Soetoro is pretending to be. In this interview with Chris Matthews, on Hardball, Chris stopped just short of getting a tingle up his leg. (see 8:10min video)
Congressman Ryan has said that he will not run for President in 2012. Republicans should quit the “I’m next” tradition that allowed Senator John McCain to become the failed Republican nominee in 2008. One would have thought Republicans would have learned their lesson after nominating the “I’m next” Sen. Bob Dole in 1996. If Republicans had any sense and if the GOP and Michael Steele had the any political foresight they would drift this young Kennedyesque Politician who has his finger on just what the problems are in our economy.
Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton both warned us that Barry Hussein Soetoro was not ready to be president of the United States of America, but we didn’t listen. And boy were they right!
If there is anyone in the Republican or GOP brain trust Congressman Paul Ryan will be the next Republican nominee for President of the United States of America. This is a no brainer Republicans and Conservatives! This is an almost guarantee to oust the immaculate conceived president who has no Negro dialect. (Of course, unless he wants to have one.)
Aside from all of the problems that Soetoro will have running for election in 2012 it will be nice on the Republican side of the aisle to actually have a nominee who understands and knows what's good for the country rather than an ultra-Partisan like the Democrats nominated and elected to the presidency.
America is going to need someone to clean up the mess that this czar appointing, executive order signing wonder has done. Someone who actually knows the traditions of America not some radicalized 60’s burn everything down and start over that is really behind the hope and change mantra.
Imagine that, Soetoro who wants to fundamentally change America. He wishes to start all over because the constitution is flawed, but he will not even entertain the thought of junking a flawed health care bill and start all over in a bipartisan fashion with it.
Whether Democrats pass Obamacare or not at this point they have already spent far too much time diverting the country’s attention off of our primary concern—Jobs. For that reason alone Soetoro should be a one term president.
And Paul Ryan should be backed by the full force and commitment of the GOP, Conservatives, Independents and all who wish to restore our government back into the hands of grownups.
“Today is a big day in America. Only, only 36,000 people lost their jobs today, which is really good”.—Senate Majority Leader Democrat Harry Reid
Well can you see a brand new day! All that hope and change has resulted in only 36,000 people losing their jobs according to Sen. Harry Reid on Friday March 5, 2010. Can I get an Amen! It must have taken the best Democrat Orwellian wordsmiths to come up with that concept Harry. “Job lost is good!” Yay!
And here’s some more good news America, only 112,000 families lost their homes last month. I’m sure Democrats are just giddy about that “good” news too. After all it could have been much worst under George Bush. (irony intended) (see 7sec.video)
Well before we get to involved in celebrating the good times of the new global convergence of left wing European Socialism and government control brought on by the election of Barry Hussein Soetoro lets gather our thoughts and assess just what brought us to Sen. Reid’s good news.
[Barry Hussein Soetoro] posted a copy of his Certificate of Live Birth, or “short form” certificate on the web. [Soetoro] claimed that it was a copy of his certified birth certificate. The owner of the blog where the copy was posted, a “fact checker”, verified that the copy submitted by [Soetoro] was an official birth certificate.
People who saw the certificate online claimed that the Certificate of Live Birth wasn’t a copy of [Soetoro’s] original birth certificate, or “long form”, the one that listed which hospital Soetoro was born in, and what doctor was in attendance. Soetoro, and his representatives, argued that the document he proffered was recognized by state officials where he was born as a viable alternative of his original certified birth certificate. The state officials came to Soetoro’s defense, stating a copy of his original birth certificate was “on file” and “had been viewed”.
Several lawsuits were filed in various state and federal courts, demanding Soetoro provide a copy of the original birth certificate, or “long” form to the court.
Soetoro responded to the lawsuits by having his subordinates ridicule in the press those who had filed the suits as nitwits, conspiracy nuts, and “birthers”.
Rather than submitting a copy of his original birth certificate to a judge, Soetoro choose to spend-under the aegis of a committee he had formed-hundreds of thousands, in some estimates, over a million dollars in legal fees to fight the lawsuits. --(source DBKP)
First we elected a man who has spent over a million dollars hiding his past from the American people. A man who Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose admitted that we know very little about. (And that is still the case in a little over a year of his presidency.) Then this man, as he promised he would during his campaign, goes about to fundamentally change America by using Orwellian redefinition and fascist executive order signing (perhaps more authoritarian executive order signing) than by any previous president in history in his first year.
This president and Democrats are redefining America with their Orwellian Worldview as they go along on their agenda of change. So how is the business of fundamentally changing America going? (see 6:34min video)
Ah yes, I can see a brand new day. A day when Americans losing only 36,000 jobs is a good day because under this current administration and Democrat controlled Congress I’m sure those numbers will drastically increase. Making 36,000 lost jobs a mere tear drop in an ocean of unemployment.
With "good" news like this Mr. Reid I can't wait until presidential elections 2012!
And let's keep with the hope and change mantra. Or even the more direct, "Anyone but Obama" will do just as nice!
"The report also shows the world's leading climate scientists acting like political scientists, with an agenda disconnected from the principles of good science. And it shows that there is no consensus-except that there are significant gaps in what scientists know about the climate system.
It's time for the Obama Administration to recognize this. Its endangerment finding for greenhouse gases rests on bad science. It should throw out that finding and abandon greenhouse gas regulation under the Clean Air Act-a policy that will mean fewer jobs, higher taxes and economic decline."—Sen. James Inhofe
Sen. James Inhofe for the first time was able to unpack the evidence showing that Climate Change and Global warming is a hoax in front of the Environment and Public Works Committee and its chairperson Barbara Boxer without the slightest rebuttal.
That’s because a lot has transpired since e-mails from the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit a major scientists at the hub of the global warming theory have been exposed. (see article)
Prof. Phil Jones the preeminent scientist at the center of the Climate change/Global warming claims has stepped down from his position as director of the Climatic Research Unit after numerous scandals and alleged criminal conduct regarding his refusal to comply with freedom of Information requests concerning global warming data. Sen. Inhofe lays out the corruption and falsification of climate science before the committee. (see 7:37min video)
Sen. Inhofe shows that the U.N. IPCC got its science wrong on global warming:(see report)
The IPCC mistakenly claimed that global warming would:
• Melt Himalayan glaciers by 2035; i
• Endanger 40 percent of Amazon rainforests;ii
• Melt mountain ice in the Alps, Andes, and Africa;iii
• Deplete water resources for 4.5 billion people by 2085, neglecting to mention that global warming could also increase water resources for as many as 6 billion people;iv
• Slash crop production by 50 percent in North Africa by 2020.v
In addition the IPCC:
• Incorrectly stated that 55 percent of the Netherlands lies below sea level;vi
• Used data from Chinese weather station measurements that are not only seriously flawed, but can’t be located. IPCC scientists suppressed this data for years because of fears that it could cast doubt on a key 1990 study on the effect of cities on warming;vii
• Included a diagram used to demonstrate the potential for generating electricity from wave power that has been found to contain numerous errors;viii
• Used a biased report by the activist group Defenders of Wildlife to state that salmon in US streams have been affected by rising temperatures;ix
• Deliberately ignored a paper written by a scientist that contradicted the panel’s claims about the cost of climate-related natural disasters;x
• Misrepresented the alleged link between climate change and coral reef degradation. The IPCC based this link not on peer-reviewed science but on advocacy articles by the radical group Greenpeace;xi
• Downplayed the increase in sea ice in the Antarctic to dramatize the observed decline in sea ice in the Arctic. Xii (source) Sen. Inhofe shows that the EPA finding that CO2 is a pollutant is based on flawed science and therefore should be scrapped:
CLAIM: Some have dismissed the email scandal as involving just a few scientists, the IPCC’s major gaffes exposed by the media (e.g. that the Himalayan glaciers will melt by 2035) as irrelevant—and that neither of these things affects EPA’s endangerment finding.
FACT:
• The scientists involved in the CRU controversy violated fundamental ethical principles governing taxpayer-funded research and, in some cases, may have violated federal laws.
• Many of the scientists involved in the CRU controversy also wrote the IPCC’s science reports.
• The flawed IPCC science reports are the most important scientific basis for EPA’s endangerment finding for greenhouse gases.
• On the critical issue of whether man-made greenhouse gases are causing climate change, EPA relied nearly exclusively on the work of the IPCC.
• EPA accepted the IPCC’s conclusions wholesale, without doing an independent review. Therefore, EPA failed to uncover key errors in the IPCC reports that ultimately were incorporated into the endangerment finding.
• EPA claims separately that it also relied on the work of the United States Global Change Research Program (USGCRP). But the USGCRP is closely linked with the IPCC. For example, of the 35 members who worked on a key 2006 USGCRP report, 23 also worked on the IPCC’s 2007 climate change science assessment.
• In short, the CRU emails reveal scientists who worked together on the major reports that form the so-called “consensus.” The emails show that there is no consensus and that EPA’s endangerment finding should be scrapped. (source)
Global warming/Climate Change/Cap and Trade legislation is no longer viable and should no later be able to get out of even the most irresponsible of Congresses in any form imaginable. And the EPA should drop all attempts to force needless laws involving the regulation of carbon on the American people.
Sadly this Congress and the Barry Hussein Soetoro administration have proven to be irresponsible enough to enact laws based on false scientific claims. It only remains to be seen if they will.
