PITTSBURGH—President Barack Obama, his presidency bogged down in the Gulf oil spill, lashed out at Republicans Wednesday, linking their deregulatory philosophy to misdeeds by bankers, insurers and oil companies.

Mr. Obama also made a gesture to allies on the left by calling on Congress to pass climate-change legislation that would make it more expensive to burn oil by putting a price on carbon-dioxide emissions. "The votes may not be there right now," he said, "but I intend to find them in the coming months."

It should be enough that these “saviors of mankind” intend to charge us for air and water.

Zero Hedge on Obama's largest corporate donor:

A Series Of Lucky Coincidences Involving Goldman Sachs And BP

. . . there is an "odd" correlation between Goldman's sellside sentiment on the stock, and the amount of stock held by Goldman's asset management arm, especially evident in the days between December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, when despite a recent Buy rating attached to the firm, GSAM sold off more than 40% of its stake in the name . . .

MSN Money:

BP Owners, Institutional Ownership, 5% Ownership

Less than 3 weeks after GS dumped over 40% of its stake in BP, Deepwater Horizon blew up and sank in flames.

Mr. Obama also made a gesture to allies on the left by calling on Congress to pass climate-change legislation that would make it more expensive to burn oil by putting a price on carbon-dioxide emissions. "The votes may not be there right now," he said, "but I intend to find buy, steal, and or coerce them in the coming months -we will deem this edict in spite of the people opposed or the Constitution it usurps."

What he REALLY meant...

[smokingfrog]

This isn't going to help his ego much.

Elected officials say no thanks to Obama invite

[Tzimisce]

He’s attacking Republican environmental policy???

Meanwhile, the leak continues to gush sewage.

Oh and let’s not forget that whole Gulf Oil spill....

“The votes may not be there right now,” he said, “but I intend to find them in the coming months.”

"And if I can't, so help me Allah, I'll fabricate 'em!"

Smiling takes 6.

I'm lazy.

Mr. President, I know what you think you just said, but what you actually said is, “I want gas prices to go up.”

[Lancey Howard]

There are literally TRILLION$ of dollars hanging in the balance of this “climate change”/”global warming” scam. Ubama and a few close rats stand to make TRILLION$. Ubama will “find” the votes - - what’s cutting in a handful of people for a few million (or even billion?) when the bottom line is TRILLION$?

Glenn Beck recently did a breathtaking expose of the whole scam.
It’s enough to make you want to cry.

"The votes may not be there right now," he said, "but I intend to find them in the coming months."

Here, let me fix that so it reads the way he intended it:

"The votes may not be there right now," he said, "but I intend to find buy them in the coming months."
