Lie, Lies, and More Lies...

President Obama’s final State of the Union address was full of nonsense, especially on the matter closest to his heart — energy and the environment.

Look, if anybody still wants to dispute the science around climate change, have at it.  You’ll be pretty lonely, because you’ll be debating our military, most of America’s business leaders, the majority of the American people, almost the entire scientific community, and 200 nations around the world who agree it’s a problem and intend to solve it.
If you put enough swill in the trough, Mr. President, the piggies will come running.
Our military
The military are on board because the government pays them to be (see also Muslim outreach; women in the military; etc) and because the Commander in Chief orders them to be.
America’s business leaders
The corporations are in it to “greenwash” their image and because they welcome the extra regulatory costs which are effective at closing down smaller competitors. Also, if they’re called Solyndra or Bright Source, or they’re part of the subsidised wind industry, they’re in it because you’re bribing them with taxpayers’ money.
The majority of the American people
In a Pew Survey in November last year, 45 percent of Americans considered climate change a “serious problem”, 41 percent believed it was “harming people now” and 30 percent were “very concerned it will harm me personally.” Not a majority then.
Almost the entire scientific community
The scientific community — like the military — is largely dependent on public funding, which is currently heavily geared towards the “global warming” scam. Still, we know that since 1998 more than 31,000 scientists — 9,000 with PhDs — have signed a petition disputing man-made global warming theory. We also know that the ’97 percent consensus’ figure often cited by Obama (but not this time: his spin doctors are getting cannier) has been roundly debunked as a complete fabrication.
200 nations
If they really think climate change is such an urgent threat, how come not one of them at the recent COP21 meeting in Paris agreed to do a damn thing about it?
But even if the planet wasn’t at stake; even if 2014 wasn’t the warmest year on record – until 2015 turned out even hotter – why would we want to pass up the chance for American businesses to produce and sell the energy of the future?
a) because those record temperatures you quote are another fabrication. The satellite records show no recent warming trend — and anyway it was probably hotter in the Medieval, Roman and Minoan warming periods when there were no 4 x 4s or Chinese power plants.
b) because government is lousy at picking winners. If American businesses wish to make money out of “the energy of the future” then they should take all the financial risks and reap all the benefits.
Seven years ago, we made the single biggest investment in clean energy in our history.
Surprised you want to bring that one up, Mr. President. Solyndra alone cost the taxpayer over $500 million before it filed for bankruptcy. Your green jobs program has been created at costs variously estimated at between $82,000 and $2 million per job.
Here are the results.  In fields from Iowa to Texas, wind power is now cheaper than dirtier, conventional power.
On rooftops from Arizona to New York, solar is saving Americans tens of millions of dollars a year on their energy bills, and employs more Americans than coal – in jobs that pay better than average.
As with wind, solar jobs are non-jobs. Potemkin jobs. Like the industry itself, they only exist because of massive taxpayer subsidies. When the grants dry up, the industry dies — as happened to SolarCity’s UK offshoot when subsidies were slashed.
We’re taking steps to give homeowners the freedom to generate and store their own energy – something environmentalists and Tea Partiers have teamed up to support.
“Freedom” is not something the government is in a position to “give,” only to take away. Which is basically how you’re funding this scam — taking away the money of poorer energy users to bribe richer, cannier energy users to install solar panels on their roofs etc.
Meanwhile, we’ve cut our imports of foreign oil by nearly sixty percent, and cut carbon pollution more than any other country on Earth. Gas under two bucks a gallon ain’t bad, either.
Not you, Mr. President. This is down to fracking (none of which took place on federal land because you’re ideologically opposed to it) and geopolitics. You actually did your best to make gas more expensive by nixing Keystone XL.
Now we’ve got to accelerate the transition away from dirty energy.
AKA cheap, effective energy. Good luck with that. It currently supplies at least 87 per cent of the world’s needs.
Rather than subsidize the past, we should invest in the future – especially in communities that rely on fossil fuels.
Fossil fuels aren’t subsidized in any meaningful sense of the word. Stop fobbing us off withgreen propaganda.
That’s why I’m going to push to change the way we manage our oil and coal resources, so that they better reflect the costs they impose on taxpayers and our planet.
ie regulating them out of existence — confiscating private property in order to deal with the imaginary problem of global warming. We understand that this sort of thing is what happens in places like Mao’s China and Stalin’s Soviet Union. But in early 21st century USA? Really?
That way, we put money back into those communities and put tens of thousands of Americans to work building a 21st century transportation system.
None of this will happen overnight
Or, indeed, ever if the electorate wakes up and smells the coffee.
And yes, there are plenty of entrenched interests who want to protect the status quo.
Yeah, pesky stuff like fiscal responsibility, scientific integrity, economic credibility.
But the jobs we’ll create, the money we’ll save, and the planet we’ll preserve – that’s the kind of future our kids and grandkids deserve.
But the needless Potemkin jobs we’ll subsidize (destroying real jobs in the real economy), the money we’ll print, and the planet we’ll help ruin with more wind turbines and palm oil plantations and untended overgrown forests ruined by our eco Nazi spotted owl regulations — that’s the kind of green horror we intend to inflict on future generations because that’s the kind of people we are.

  1. Okay I'll admit it.

    I took the lazy way out today and copied and pasted this article in it's entirety from Breitbart.com...

    But it's still worth discussing...

  4. I never watch that lying sack of excrement when he's on. I start screaming at the TV, my blood pressure goes up and my whole evening is ruined.

    Just imagining all those brain dead ungodly unholy left wingers out there drooling and watching, mouths open, brains spinning and grinding, believing the crap they try to convince us of worries me, honestly.

    It worries me that there are that many American citizens, people whose vote counts exactly the same as mine, who are so stupid as to believe the crap that comes out of this man's mouth. And not only believe it, but repeat the shit his party feeds them like it was some kind of evidence. I worry for my country when I see we have that many people who are that stupid.

    All a bunch of segments in the democrat human centipede. Eating the shit from the segment ahead of them, and feeding it to the segment behind them. Sad and scary, frankly.

  5. And I read that he left a chair empty for "the victims of gun violence". Sorry B-Ho, Clint already did that bit, and did it better.

    He might have left a chair empty for the 60 million unborn babies murdered by his party since Roe v Wade. Oh but wait, those aren't people. They are just minor inconveniences to be cut up and sold for parts. Sometimes even I forget how evil and ungodly these workers of Satan actually are.

  9. Ah, good to hear from you Preacherswife. And yes, I do remember the tantrum ol' Batshit (please excuse me language) threw when someone started calling her "Moochele."

    Disrespectful and racist, he called it...

    ReplyDelete
  10. Yeah, I saw the lakemail guy, too. At first I thought it was the latest version of Kanwatcher/BWOR or whatever it is he's calling himself nowadays.

    But then I noticed he just tried posting on "Open Blog Friday" about 5 minutes ago.

    What a dope he is...

    ReplyDelete
  11. I don't think it's George Thorton. That's the real name of kanwatcher and BWOR. He isn't capable of putting two sentences together that are that cohesive. Maybe fishbait boy. We'll have to wait and see. They don't take long to reveal themselves. Dogshit all smells the same no matter which dog shits it.

  12. Did I stumble onto a Keri blog? LOL - just kidding.

    It drives me nuts that he is taking credit for closing the "gun show loophole." Lies and more lies.

    And ol batshit is one sick puppy.

  13. Lying is all they know.

    And like Safe pointed out the millions of stupid people in this country today is how they get away with it.

    Oh, and Battlestache, yes he is...

  14. I was watching your blog this morning Kevin....and I flagged lakemail's comment that had the (forgive me) but it had the word bastard.... I view that as a foul word... it along with maingate's "Hillary Haters" comment (a bonus leftist post) was pulled also...

  15. Thanks for your help Rikki.

    Maybe things are turning around over there...

  16. you're welcome Kevin. The lefties have had run of the roost too long. After I flagged the bastard comment, it didn't get removed, so I followed up with an email to Eric Smith and Emily DeShazer....still nothing... so after a couple of hours after that and nothing I sent another e-mail but this time including Sherman.... still nothing after an hour.... so I forwarded the whole shpeel to Tomari and the new guy at the helm....zachar Ahrens.... then lakemail's bastard comment was gone and they must have felt that the Hillary hater comment from maingate was in violation...so it went also....

    2. It should had been taken care of with the initial flag.... it shouldn't have taken hours and emails to get that post removed. maybe Tomari Quinn and Zachary Ahrens had a pow wow the Sherman Smith, Eric Smith, and Emily DeShazer... oh how I wished I could have been a "fly on the wall"....

  17. I often wonder if our emporer is that maniacal or if he just a sociopath when it comes to the lies. I wonder if it's intentional to mislead the sheep, or if it's just the condition of lying over and over and believing it once it's been repeated enough. Both are unstable behaviors, that's a given. But when you have to lie over and over to preserve a legacy, tells me that you are a failure. So I guess in the end that is what we are left with. Not knowing any of his true intentions(malicious, or lunacy), I am only left with one fact. Obama was a failure. And that would be his legacy, all lies aside.

    1. Obama has a classical narcissistic complex. He has a psychological defect where he doesn't believe he lies. In his mind he makes excuses and blames others for his conflicting statements and positions. This is a very dangerous personality defect and is evident in the way he governs.


      Hillary, on the other hand, she uses lies and manipulation intentionally for personal gain. She absolutely knows she's lying but uses lies as a tool.

    1. Good morning Rikki,

      I started the day off with an email to Eric and copying Tomari about BS off topic posts and attacks on Kevin on my latest blog. Time for him to go.

    2. I just got finished flagging his posts. I think CJ should contact the local Law Enforcement. This guy is a stalker and who knows where he is going with all this.

    3. Skippey, you're right. I think Kevin should arm himself with a longneck. We all know a petite woman with a longneck made him pee his pants in fear so I can already smell the fear of him seeing a man armed with one.

    4. Thank you KTT and Skippey (smiles)

  19. Hammer, I'm convinced obama is just another radical commie who desires power and control over peoples lives and has no limit to what he will do to achieve it. Lie, cheat, doesn't matter. The end is all that matters.

    In the sixties the long haired maggot infested hippies were supporting the Soviet Communists by undermining America and the war. The Vietnam war was lost because of the communist left in America and people like Hanoi Jane Fonda, traitor to America. They supported the same system of government that murdered 50 million people over a couple decades just before.

    These people had no idea what they were doing. They were stupid drug addled people sucked into the whole "critical thinking" rebel against your parents useful idiot life. They still don't know the damage they did, and the forces they unleashed. America is paying the price for those people's actions. And obama is just one example of the monsters those people unleashed on us.

    And they are proud of what they did. They caused America to surrender Vietnam and as soon as we left, the Communists marched in there, murdered a few hundred thousand people and took over. Kind of like today, when obama surrendered Iraq and ISIS took over. Except it's even worse because the ungodly left is inviting them here with open arms.

    When I see the deal obama and Kerry made with Iran I just scratch my head and wonder exactly how stupid these obama trained monkeys that support him are. How stupid do you have to be to believe that was in any way beneficial to us or to anybody except Iran and global terrorism? Pretty stupid. But we haven't even plumbed the depths of stupidity of the ungodly left. It gets much worse unless we stop it.

  22. Bat Boy is baiting everybody on KTTs blog. Just remember, the more you respond, the more you give him what he wants.

    And Kevin, he has a particular fixation on you. More than a little creepy if you ask me. I still think he has a man crush on you. He probably spends all his time around effeminate left wing limp wristed obama types and you have fired up his wish for his daddy's approval. So in childlike fashion he tries to get your attention. And your rejection of him probably causes him much distress.

    Or the alternate theory is he's just a raging left wing asshole doing what raging left wing assholes do. That's probably more like it. There's more than a couple of them over there today.
