Thanks neverdem. I'm almost positive this is the last of the off-list-topic pings, my apologies all.

Obama has it in for another industry: agriculture. Check out these statements from an interview he gave with Time's Joe Klein:

As a consequence, our agriculture sector actually is contributing more greenhouse gases than our transportation sector. And in the mean time, it's creating monocultures that are vulnerable to national security threats, are now vulnerable to sky-high food prices or crashes in food prices, huge swings in commodity prices, and are partly responsible for the explosion in our healthcare costs because they're contributing to type 2 diabetes, stroke and heart disease, obesity, all the things that are driving our huge explosion in healthcare costs. That's just one sector of the economy.

He is blaming our agriculture policy for global warming, obesity, stroke, heart disease, etc.

Agriculture causes global warming? Like for example, maybe Al Gore's family's business, tobacco growing?

Type II diabetes obviously has nothing to do with baby bottles full of cola and piles of candy bars -- just as deep fat and overcooked vegetables and meats have nothing to do with stroke, heart disease, and obesity.

He has also happily accepted the endorsement of HSUS. The so-called “Humane Society of the US” has no connection to the fine local humane societies that protect unfortunate animals; instead this is an enormously rich organization that does nothing for individual animals but instead works to prevent meat consumption, farming involving animals, sport involving animals, or fishing. The president of the HSUS has stated clearly and publicly that he advocates a “petless, meatless society.” They are an animal rights outfit, not an animal welfare organization—there’s a very big difference.

So, let’s review the bidding. Obama wants to punish agriculture, and he doesn’t want you to eat animals either. What are we supposed to eat exactly, Lord Obama? Soylent Green?

Agriculture causes global warming? ... Be sure to check your tire pressure.

It is also the fault of all those unregulated thinkers, like the people on Free Republic, who are contributing to Global Warming.

An Idea tax would go a long way in curbing all the unregulated energy emissions.

Also a Department of Ideation, which controlled and licensed thinkers could reduce the energy wastage that ends up heating our planet.

However, simple steps that you can do at home would also help enormously!

If you would just change your light bulbs, from this:

To THIS:

our problems would be solved!

Sort of wish we could, but we're not 'Rats; we voted three weeks ago. *<];-)

Great. On top of everything else this Master of the Universe want to tell everyone what they can and cannot eat.
