Obama Attacks ‘Climate Deniers’ For Wasting Time Debating ‘Fact’
The Daily Caller ^ | May 9, 2014 | Michael Bastasch

Posted on 05/12/2014 12:20:57 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

President Obama took time in his Friday speech at a California Wal-Mart to bash “climate deniers” for obstructing him by debating the science behind man-made global warming.

“So unfortunately, inside of Washington we’ve still got some climate deniers who shout loud, but they’re wasting everybody’s time on a settled debate,” Obama said, doubling down on remarks made during his State of the Union Address this year by adding that, “Climate change is a fact.”

“Here in California, you’ve seen these effects firsthand,” Obama told the audience at a Mountain View Wal-Mart. “You know what’s happening. And increasingly, more and more Americans do — including, by the way, many Republicans outside of Washington.”

Obama’s speech to announce more executive orders to promote solar energy development and energy efficiency subsidies comes just days after the White House released the third National Climate Assessment (NCA).

The NCA claimed that global warming was already happening and had caused the U.S. to warm about 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit since 1895. The report also claimed that temperatures could increase another 4 degrees Fahrenheit and sea levels could rise 4 feet in the coming decades if no action is taken.

“Hundreds of scientists, experts and businesses, not-for-profits, local communities all contributed over the course of four years,” Obama said. “What they found was unequivocally that climate change is not some far-off problem in the future. It’s happening now. It’s causing hardship now.”(continued)

What does deodorant and common sense have in common?

It finally hit me the other day why the CIC is so into this Green Energy push. Don't get me wrong, some of these technologies work better than a long time ago when you could begin to take it as a major or minor in college but...

* They still needs research in many ways, they are not mature like going out and buying a lawnmower which is fungible.
* Said research takes money, usually on campus or an industry with a carved our DOE etc grant that is probably with an "ear-mark" somewhere.
* So it is the old fashion Chicago Politics Scheme, in plain English.
* Take money, spread it around, get votes from those now beholden to you, and those of your friends at the front end who where in the Congressional Hearings on said technology or helped write the grants have a sense what will pop and get in on IPO.

It's all about votes, nothing about energy independence..

Not much different than many episodes of the Soprano's when you think of it....

Let me explain global warming to you. The government goes to so called scientists, offers a grant if they will come up with the result the government wants. The crooked scientists take the money and twist the facts to reach the desired result.
He who pays the piper calls the tune. It is that simple.
The government then uses its so called unbiased results to reward their friends and screw their enemies. I do not know why people have such blind faith in scientists and so called experts but they apparently do.
Obama and his minions in the press and the dem party then repeat the big lie over and over till it is accepted.
Worked well for Hitler too.

Would some Constitutional scholar PLEASE tell us all exactly which Clause or Amendment gives Washington the freaking power to regulate WORLD WEATHER???

If global cooling nee global warming nee climate change nee climate disruption isn’t the death knell of the entire concept of limited government, I don’t know what is.

The health of the planet is none of your business, Barry. So drop it.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

FACT: From their own stupid report: In the last 120 years, the average temperature of the earth has changed less than 1% Celsius. And even that slight increase cannot be attributed to human activity.

“Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?”

And now, for the finance portion of our lesson... Mr Gore, will you please detail how massive amounts of cash will solve nuclear reactions occurring regularly on the sun?

:: the one true issue that is of value, and we could force urban areas to throw up more trees and offer less concrete. But it’s not really a problem which draws redistribution of wealth ::

Especially since it is the intent to “redistribute” said wealth to the coffers of the urban-area governments.

Obama: "So unfortunately, inside of Washington we’ve still got some climate deniers who shout loud"

Dude. I do not deny the climate. That would be silly. It rains, it's sunny, it gets hot, or cold, or the wind blows.

What I *DO* deny is your attempt to scam what little money we have left by imposing huge new government seizures of capital via these 'carbon exchanges' because of utterly discredited fantasy-science.

Ya pogue.

He takes every terrible, immoral, race-baiting, etc. position that he can take.

Noticed that myself, in year one. Every last decision he took was one that would harm America. Every last one.
