Carbon hypocrites: Greens’ fossil-fuel profits

By Michael James Barton

Billionaire Democrat activist Tom Steyer is using his fortune to combat what he thinks is the greatest threat to America. No, not ISIS or Ebola. To help favored congressional candidates, he’s running an ad that highlights pollution from an oil refinery owned by Charles and David Koch — whose political donations largely favor the party Steyer opposes. And never mind the fact that Steyer had no qualms about fossil fuel back when his hedge fund was making millions in the industry. With this effort, Steyer joins a long list of green activists who use fossil-fuel profits to bash the industry that fed them. What makes the hypocrisy truly outrageous is that these activists promote policies that will prevent average Americans from sharing in the benefits of the energy boom. Consider George Soros, the world’s richest hedge-fund manager. He supports groups such as Alliance for Climate Change, the Natural Resources Defense Council and the Union of Concerned Scientists — which all oppose the job-creating innovation known as hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking.” Yet Soros himself recently bought a giant stake in CONSOL Energy, a company actively involved in fracking. Hmm . . .

And the Kenyan fully supports these scam artists.

And Jesus said, “O ye hypocrites”.

It must be understood that the laws and mandates apply only to the “little people”. They do not apply to the ruling class because there are fewer of them and they do so much good for the “little people” that deviations from their rules must be forgiven.

Besides, the old NAZI (Soros) has to keep his assets up so that he can properly short the dollar to destroy the US currency; his life’s goal.

I hope he throws in all of his money and then the Democrats lose big.
