THIS IS ALL I’M GONNA SAY ON THE ‘STATE OF THE UNION’…


The steady stream of pure falsehoods, blatant misrepresentations and outright lies spewed by Barry last night under the guise of a State of the Union Address made any amount of time spent watching it, essentially nothing more than a complete waste.  And while there were any number of statements made on any number of issues, I guess the one statement made that, at least to me, proves just how much of a waste of time it really was, was when Barry chose to point out the dangers that we continue to face from, yup you guessed it, ‘climate change.”  That monumental hoax perpetrated by the left that has absolutely no basis in any actual scientific fact.

So once again we were told that the greatest threat now facing mankind today is not radical Muslim terrorism, not an unsecured border, not an ever-growing federal debt that now exceeds $18 trillion, and not even the fact that we now have 109 million Americans who live in households that are on some manner federal welfare program. No, my friends, these are not the greatest threats facing us today, in fact, to listen to Barry, they’re not even in the running.  According to Barry, as he declared in his State of the Union Address on Tuesday night, "No challenge--no challenge--poses a greater threat to future generations than climate change."  So there you have it!

Although Barry referred to it as "climate change" and not "global warming," he immediately followed his declaration that this is the greatest threat to future generations by stating that fourteen of the hottest fifteen years "on record" have occurred since 2000.  This was one of the many instances during his speech where Barry strayed a considerable distance from the truth.  And despite the fact that a majority of scientists disagree with him, he said, "2014 was the planet’s warmest year on record."  Adding, "Now, one year doesn’t make a trend, but this does: 14 of the 15 warmest years on record have all fallen in the first 15 years of this century."

Barry claimed that while he himself is not a scientist, he say know a lot of really good ones.  But good according to whom?  And once again he referred to those who he identified as being our "best scientists" who say that human beings are "changing the climate" and that "we" need to "act forcefully" in response to this.  Democrats love to try to bolster their claims by saying the vast majority, or 97 percent, of those identifies as ‘climate scientists agree that humans are to blame for our changing climate.  But this number is very clearly bogus as there are a great many scientists who now disagree with the cockamamie theory of man-made ‘climate change.’    

Barry said, "I’ve heard some folks try to dodge the evidence by saying they’re not scientists; that we don’t have enough information to act," said Obama. "Well, I’m not a scientist, either.  But, you know what, I know a lot of really good scientists at NASA, and NOAA, and at our major universities. The best scientists in the world are all telling us that our activities are changing the climate, and if we do not act forcefully, we’ll continue to see rising oceans, longer, hotter heat waves, dangerous droughts and floods, and massive disruptions that can trigger greater migration, conflict, and hunger around the globe."

And than as if to add some level of credibility to his idiotic claim, Barry said that even the U.S. military is saying that "climate change" is causing immediate risks to our national security--although he did not explain exactly what this meant or how the "Pentagon" had arrived at this conclusion.  He said, "The Pentagon says that climate change poses immediate risks to our national security." He went on to say, "We should act like it."  But let’s not forget that today’s Pentagon is headed up by those who are essentially nothing more than yes-men who have been assigned their posts by Barry himself.  So anything that they might say about ‘climate change’, should be taken with a fairly large grain of salt.

Barry then, as is usually the case with this guy, boasted about those things that he has done to counter these vague, yet "immediate risks."  And in sounding oh so proud of himself, he said, "That’s why, over the past six years, we’ve done more than ever before to combat climate change, from the way we produce energy, to the way we use it."  And he went on to say, "That’s why we’ve set aside more public lands and waters than any administration in history," he said. "And that’s why I will not let this Congress endanger the health of our children by turning back the clock on our efforts. I am determined to make sure American leadership drives international action." 

Actually, all that Barry has really accomplished in his effort to save the planet, is to drive up the cost of energy.  I’m not sure about anyone else, but I’ve seen my utility bill triple since this asshole first came into office.  He made it very clear even before being elected president that he was against fossil fuels and that it was his intent to bankrupt those who made it their living working to produce fossil fuels.  And while he tries very hard to take credit for our current falling gas prices, he’s really had absolutely nothing to do with it.  Because prices haven’t fallen because of anything he has done, they’ve been falling in spite of everything that he has done.

Barry even cited his work, on the ‘climate change‘ issue, with the Communist government of Red China, referencing a deal struck that I’m quite sure still has the Red Chinese laughing at us.  He said, "In Beijing, we made an historic announcement: the United States will double the pace at which we cut carbon pollution, and China committed, for the first time, to limiting their emissions."  And then he went on to proudly declare, "And because the world’s two largest economies came together, other nations are now stepping up, and offering hope that, this year, the world will finally reach an agreement to protect the one planet we’ve got."

If global "climate change" caused by human action is indeed the greatest threat facing future generations and must therefore be stopped, as Barry argues, it will necessarily take a global authority with the power to stop human beings from engaging in the actions that cause "climate change" to avert that threat.  But there is nowhere near the proof needed to make such a case or justify the cost.  Over the past few years we have seen, repeatedly, how the data has been manipulated and computer models have been rigged all in an effort to alter the outcome.  It’s all nothing more than a hoax perpetrated by those who wish to bring an end to capitalism.
