EDITOR:
Along with myriad expert climatologists, the manmade global warming hoax has been debunked by Climate Research Unit's own Dr. Phil Jones who has acknowledged that "there has been no global warming since 1995." Jones was the major contributor providing false information to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. He along with Professor Mann at Penn State are now in the pseudo scientist protection program.
It is a fact that we have miniscule impact on planetary CO2 level and that historically CO2 levels have never determined global temperature. The sun is primarily determinative. Facts be damned, the Obama administration is determined to impose cap and trade through legislation or by EPA fiat. It's ideology first and America be damned.
Obama at home: Obama prefers trying Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New York City not in a military tribunal. Obama wants to close Guantanamo and transfer prisoners to U.S. soil. Obama's Department of Justice is aggressively attacking CIA operatives that kept us safe for years. Obama has permitted the court marshal of our Navy Seals based on the testimony of a terrorist.
Gen. McChristal requested 40 to 60 thousand additional troops in Afghanistan and Obama gave him 30 thousand after six months delay. Obama's economic policy is Keynesian in origin and always fails, complementing the Cloward/Piven Strategy to destroy our economy and capitalistic system. Alinski's "Rules for Radicals" define Obama's role.
On March 21, Obama, Pelosi, and Reid abetted by a progressively dominated Congress legislated against the will of the people to incrementally impose single payer health care on us while simultaneously bankrupting the country.
Our medical care delivery system is the best in the world and its quality could be maintained by a cost reduction of 40 to 50 percent based on tort reform, and the ability of our 1,300 insurance companies to compete over state lines.
Why would our representatives foist a system on us that fails miserably everywhere it's tried, and that they have rejected for themselves? It is a massive power grab by the central government under the guise of medical reform. Without suffering similar fate they gain control over our lives of 17 percent of the economy. It's ideology at work again! Speaking of ideology. Obama celebrated the end of Ramadan in the White House but golfed on Christmas day. Odd for a proclaimed Christian!
Obama abroad: Obama has denigrated our country repeatedly. As the President of the United States he has bowed inappropriately on multiple occasions, and rudely refused invitations to dine with the King of Norway and French President Sarkozy. He was twice "dissed" in Copenhagen. He has abandoned Israel and double-crossed Poland by reneging on our promise of missile defense instillation. In his narcissistic, delusional state Obama believes that Ahmadinejad and our other enemies will be disarmed and co-opted by his munificent omnipotence. They, of course, consider him a naïve, spineless adversary with overrated intelligence.
While Obama would appear to be losing, he is achieving his goal of our transformation to a socialist state. In reality we are losing our country.
