“It’s not that easy being green” -especially without CO2.
“Nothing would be green around the world without CO2,” Rep Sensenbrenner, “CO2 is not a pollutant.”
The two videos presented below are presentations given at the pre-2012 presidential election 7th International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC7). The conference theme: “Real Science, Real Choices.”
In the first video, Chris Horner (he is introduced in the video), lets it be known that “doing-the-right-thing” scarcity fear mongering is the only man-made element in the global warming issue. Also, that the EPA’s Lisa Jackson’s job destruction to create clean-up jobs – breaking things to fix things- is not all that it is cracked up to be. The net gain is equal to your brain on carbon monoxide.
I truly appreciate U.S. Rep., WI 5th Congressional District, Jim Sensenbrenner’s candor and thorough knowledge of the politically discharged climate change propaganda that is polluting the airwaves of truth.
If you are still a devotee of the global warming sect after listening to these videos then I have a catalytic converter to sell you. It is adjustable to fit your nose and comes with duct tape for your mouth to prevent ad hominem leakage-you know, cap and trade kinda stuff.
BHO is so forward thinking (and narcissistic) that he chases his own tail right to his own straw man conclusion.
Below is a March 15th, 2012 You-Tube video showing BHO in true form: a professional politician pompously using straw man arguments to make a supposedly erudite point about his political agenda while poking fun at Republican candidates.
BHO portrays himself as the elite “green” technocrat. He postures himself as someone who can lead us boldly where no man has gone before – down the path of green energy to freedom from our slavery to fossil fuels. BHO wants you to follow the “green” brick road but this path leads directly to him, the Wizard behind the White House curtains. Don’t go there. You won’t get what you are looking for – you already have it.
Who is BHO talking about when he says “folks running for a certain office, who shall go unnamed. They’ve been talking down new sources of energy.”? Certainly he is not referring to any of the Republican candidates. None of them have said any such thing (see Gingrich video below). But of course BHO already knows that you only listen to BHO and his shills via the main stream media.
The Republican candidates have, in fact, denounced throwing good money (our tax-payer money) after bad to promote “green energy projects and companies who will in turn promote a BHO “green energy” presidency. These companies include most notably the bankrupt Solyndra.
And why is BHO talking about green energy and not about jobs? Because he knows that environmentalists and progressives will fill his campaign coffers and BHO doesn’t want to you think about his job’s record. He doesn’t want to go there. He’d rather chide Republicans for not being “green” minded like he is. The greenest part of BHO, though, is his envy of other’s power.
Wind power? Solar energy? Bio-fuels? Algae? Why not talk about nuclear power, the most effective source of clean power we can generate? Instead, what we have now is a Jane Fonda-esque president!
I work in the Power Industry. Because of my confidentiality agreement with the company I work for I am forbidden to talk about my work in detail. Suffice it to say, though, that wind power and solar power are miniscule generators of power and are mostly irrelevant to power generation. Nuclear power, on the other hand, is a tremendous generator of energy. And, fossil fuels, abundant in our own country, have been cleaned up. They can be transported safely and efficiently throughout our country. Fossil fuels will also provide many thousand of jobs and secure our nation. But, BHO will not go there.
BHO wants the “green” ticket to ride to the 2012 presidency. He doesn’t care that it will cost the taxpayer his own “green” money (e.g., Solyndra) to get him there.
BHO chides the Republicans when he says that unlike them he and the American people have “faith in the future”. Well, there certainly is enough dried bull shit in this line to fuel all the stoves of the former Russian gulags.
BHO goes on to make Rutherford B. Hayes a straw man. BHO lies, he cajoles, he plies you with his “green” is good BS. In the end, though, the only green wind power you’ll ever get out of a BHO presidency is what comes out of both ends of BHO.

The “Green” Brick Road
