Are You Fed Up Yet or Do You Relish the Idea of $7 a Gallon Gas?

Perhaps it’s time for all of us to drop our heads, put our tail between our legs and just give up like whipped puppies. I mean to say, who are we to question Obama and his cronies in the White House or the other progressives who are advising him?

Global warming, now known as climate change since the temperatures all over the world have been dropping for the past 15 years, has pretty much been proven a complete rip-off by Al Gore (who’s made $10’s of millions), the unscrupulous scientists (who have destroyed trust in scientific research with their shameless manipulation of data), and the radicals (who have hijacked the environmental movement). You’d think politicians would put all their hype about greenhouse gasses, carbon footprints, and the rest sheepishly on the compost pile, hope it would quietly go away and no one would bring up the billions of taxpayers dollars they’ve wasted on the hoax.

Don’t bet on it, Bucko! Obama and the EPA are pressing forward. They’ve increased the EPA budget by $19 million just to work on reducing those dastardly greenhouse gas emissions. Their goal? Cut transportation gas emissions 14 percent by 2020. Simply put, they want you out of your cars.

What’s the easiest way to get the serfs and plebeians onto bicycles and public transportation? Hit ‘em where it hurts! Hit their wallets (which won’t have much in them anyway with all the tax increases that are coming down the pike – but I digress). In language only politicians would use in an attempt to hoodwink the public and sell a course of action they know the public will go ballistic when they hear it, “[The] Administration will work expeditiously with key stakeholders (i.e. campaign contributors who will make big bucks from the program) and Congress (who will benefit from the campaign contributors) to develop an economy-wide emissions reduction program . . ..”

How hard are the peons going to be hit, you ask? Well, according to researchers at Harvard, it looks like Joe Six-pack may get to pay about $7 a gallon for gas. The Ivy League eggheads came up with several ideas to address the heat-trapping emissions (they could have saved themselves a lot of trouble and the average Joe a lot of money had they read the research by MIT climate scientist Richard Lindzen), but concluded raising taxes would be the best. There won’t be any argument from the government. More control over the population and think of all the revenue it will bring in! It won’t take long before we start looking like Beijing or Eastern Europe.

So, the next time you read about Obama flying Michelle to New York for a date or the Air Force flyingNancy Pelosi back and forth between California and Washington, D.C., be comforted while you’re taking one for the team. Al Gore, Henry Waxman, Barbra Streisand, and Ted Danson will really appreciate it -- as they take off in their private Jets to the next scheduled party to call attention to climate change.

Are you fed up yet?........Posted by LG 03/05/2010
