Obama: Planet Will ‘Boil Over' If Africans Are Allowed Cars and Air-Conditioning

July 1, 2013 - 4:22 PM By Ryan Kierman

(CNSNews.com) – President Barack Obama said at a town hall event in Johannesburg, South Africa, on Saturday that unless we find new way of producing energy "the planet will boil over" if people in Africa are allowed to attain air conditioning, automobiles and big houses.

“Ultimately, if you think about all the youth that everybody has mentioned here in Africa, if everybody is raising living standards to the point where everybody has got a car and everybody has got air conditioning, and everybody has got a big house, well, the planet will boil over -- unless we find new ways of producing energy.”

The president’s comments, made the day before unveiling his “Power Africa” initiative for a “sustainable” African energy strategy, came while speaking at University of Johannesburg-Soweto.

According to Obama, global warming constitutes “the biggest challenge we have environmentally,” one greater than all other environmental calamities like “dirty water, dirty air.”

However, the President’s statements do not reflect statistics released by the United Nations: Based on a data released in October, 2012, the World Health Organization estimated that “Global warming” is responsible for approximately 140,000 excess deaths each year.

By comparison, as many as three million people died from indoor and outdoor air pollution – in other words, over 20 times the number of alleged victims of global warming, according to the Word Health Organization.

The list of victims of unclean drinking water is even more staggering.

Well I guess those poor Africans should go back to grass huts and just stay poor!

And think about the excessive carbon emissions for him to go over there and tell them that in person.

Wow, just wow.

The mighty 0bama has spoken. His royal highness has decreed Africa should stay in poverty lest his African peasants deprive the mighty Royal One his opportunity to emit carbon at his pleasure.

For someone who certainly likes to enjoy all of the most extravagant luxuries of our world, he seems hell bent on denying them to others. The guy goes on countless trips, taking huge entourages, staying in the most luxurious accommodations. He enjoys indulgent food, no doubt flown at great expense from the four corners of the earth. He plays golf, a sport that certainly counters the spirit of the global warming alarmists in their prescribed use of our planet's resources. If the man wanted to establish a molecule of credibility in his concern for man-made global warming, he should pare down his resource-wasting lifestyle, shouldn't he?

That might actually give the impression he believes what he says instead of using the AGW argument as a means to expand tyrannical government control.

Obama: Yeah, FU Africa! You’ll just have to live in hot squalor until we figure out this non-fossil fuel energy thing.

Wow...I’m gonna be laughing at that comment for a while. That’s going up on the wall of shame.

Thank you! I can't believe it took 170+ comments before someone pointed this out. Three times he said it! If I’d said it once, my THIRD GRADE English teacher would've busted my chops, big time!

Ever notice his chronic misuse of articles? For example: ‘We have a opportunity...’ He does this frequently.

I'll bet he had to practice for 3 years before he could remember to say ‘ask’ instead of ‘axe’...

This is truly the least-intelligent President of my lifetime.

As long as I can remember the goal of the US was to help other countries prosper. Hence foreign aid. Obama wants no one to prosper but to be equal as long as it is not Obama. All you have to see is what he has done to his own Nation! Obama has no roots and has no loyalty to no one but Obama! Obama is not of this Country it’s plain to see. Obama will be a man (insert Child) without a Country. Impeachment and exile is the only recourse!

Your; "Why does he hate Africans?"

Because he's an Arab who believes Negroes are only fit to be slaves.

I’m sorry. How could anybody, much less the president of the US, say “the planet will boil over”...?

Probably the only thing that’s keeping Bambi from being the real, ultimate, evil anti-Christ is that he’s so dumb.

Just yesterday, some Freeper took issue with my suggestion that we help Africans pursue a Middle Class lifestyle and help them run businesses. No wonder that Freeper was freaking out, he’s worried that if Africans drive more cars that would spark more global warming. So in other words, force Africans to live in their grass huts, so that we Americans don’t have to worry about Al Gore’s global warming. Do any Freepers believe that’s selfish thinking?
