The only threat to national security is Obama
Obama needs to be more concerned about Sand Storms that helped ISIS take Ramadi and make him look like the fool he is and stop BS’ing every one about the weather.

It seems here lately these bleats about Global Climate Change are mainly heard from government, both here in the US and by the United Nations. They are spewed to captive audiences who have no alternate refuge.

To be inclusive, there are also other voices - those mainly connected with academia or special interest groups who have a vested interest in government grants, contracts, donations or legislation that can affect their bottom line.

Even Mother Nature is a Climate Change Denier. Every time the GCC movement gains ground through intimidation, misuse of authority or by sheer insistence, she rallies back with her own ‘comment’ - snow, ice, blizzards or just plain disgust for those who think collective humans’ effect on her realm is so large. Minuscule is her word for 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?

A national security risk that is more realistic than “Climate Change” is invasion by aliens.

Uh, no.

The Obama regime itself poses an “immediate risk” to the United States.

The reason for invoking national security is an attempt to take the courts out of the picture.

Whatever he does can’t be challenged in the courts because the courts have no control over national security.

Whatever he does, Congress wont stop him and the courts can’t stop him.

Please include my best wishes in their congratulations.

(And my sorrow at their having to be a captive audience to this charlatan.)

When pollsters ask people to list their concerns, rather than handing them a preplanned menu, "climate change" comes in dead last time and time again. The common people have enough sense to smell a rat given enough time.
