So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted. - Obama 2008

Point of fact: the VA gubernatorial race will culminate in a month and a half, not next year.
I really hope Cucinelli is geared up and ready to pounce on this immediately.

I think that the cognitive dissonance is near complete. They’re seeing the languid employment figures, the loss of personal wealth, and the huge spike in healthcare-related expenses (just to name a few) and blaming pubbies instead of themselves.
Øbongo has raised scapegoating to an art form and the Øbamaphone crowd is lapping it up.

I'd like to see every RINO globalist who makes it impossible for a true constitutional conservative to get the nomination take responsibility for Obama being elected and re-elected. Tthat isn't going to happen, and you know it. they'll blame the Tea-party, lack of Latino voters, failure to "out-reach", etc. You know that as well as I do. In fact the RINOs would rather be permanently relegated to the status of a 2nd tier political party, rather than take responsibility and turn things around.

We are going to have a cold winter. Not very cold, but brutally cold. All of the indicators are there. You can count on it.
Can’t wait to hear people scream when they get their electric bills. I’m guessing mine for both January and February will be north of $500.
And we might have some brownouts, too.

Wait until the idiots who voted for him get their electric bills AND their healthcare tax bills. The unions put Obama in office.
So they can look for the union label on their electric bills, their healthcare tax bills and their unemployment checks.

I thought we found out that Global Warming was called off this weekend? Was he out golfing and missed the news?

This guy is like an overactive jackrabbit on meth. He's busy trying to start a nuclear war with Russia over Syria AND trying to destroy the American medical system with Obamacare AND trying to collapse the American economy with debt increases AND trying to take Americas guns from their citizens AND trying to price energy out of Americans reach AND overwhelming the military with outrageous gay and lesbian edicts AND trying to water down Americans votes by legalizing millions of illegal aliens AND trying to spy on every American using the National Security Administration AND getting our diplomats killed in Benghazi by running illegal weapons to Syria AND destabilizing every Middle East country so he can install more Muslim Brotherhood Islamic Extremist he can AND using the IRS to intimidate anyone who opposes him AND trying to collapse the dollar by printing far too many of them AND trying to collapse American businesses by excessively regulating them with the Environmental Protection Agency AND building a private army of SWAT-gear clad units from every single agency....
.... I used to call Obama lazy. I take it back, he is the single most destructive tornado of evil I have ever seen.

Following his reelection I thought Obama was a clueless leftist with a chip on his shoulder something like Jimmy Carter. But I’m being proven wrong every time you add to that list.

“Obama and his EPA are shutting down coal power plants because of a hoax called global warming.
There are hardly any hurricanes, record ice growth in the North and Obama is destroying the economy because of the hoax called global warming”
Oh geez! Is THAT what is going on? Well in that case, what is it going to take for some patriots to say “FUBO! This is the land of the free and home of the brave!!! We’re gonna build this pipeline and build this power plant!”

Jim, this POS has so many iron in the fire it’s impossible to keep up to date on what is what. Our son is ADHD and if this POS isn’t then he’s missing one hell of an opportunity.
