If You’re A Pro-life Christian, You Should Care About “Climate Change” Or Something

By William Teach September 10, 2014 – 11:41 am

No, really, says Tom Krattenmaker at The Daily Journal

Why climate change concerns pro-life Christians

This is not a column dedicated to bludgeoning those unmoved by liberals’ warnings about climate change. It is an invitation to people, especially Christians, to think about what’s happening to the water, and what will happen to us if there’s not enough of it to go around.

For whatever reason, 58 percent of California is in “exceptional drought,” which is even worse than “extreme.” Also in the headlines: a tap-water drinking ban in Toledo, Ohio, precipitated by Lake Erie algae blooms that researchers attribute, in part, to warmer temperatures.

These and similar phenomena are more than a boutique concern for silly liberals. If you care about life — and I know you do, especially if you’re a Christian who believes in the sanctity of life — please pay attention to what is happening with the water.

(blah blah blah, doom from Hotcoldwetdry)

I have been around enough Christians to know there is room in their hearts, and on their agenda, for this life issue, too.

You Know You Live In A Country Run By Idiots When…

By William Teach September 10, 2014 – 10:00 am

This is too good not to snag it from The Lonely Conservative who got it from Zero Hedge who got it from Fellowship Of The Minds Blog

1. If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for being in the country illegally, you live in a country run by idiots.

2. If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion, you live in a country run by idiots.

3. If you have to show identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor or check out a library book, but not to vote on who runs the government, you live in a country run by idiots.

7. If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more, you live in a country run by idiots.

11. If being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you more “safe” according to the government, you live in a country run by idiots.

Read the rest. Oh, and if Government tells you that the way to increase freedom is to increase the role of centralized government in your lives, you live in a country run by idiots.

When Semi Retired President Obama’s Lost Michael Moore….

By William Teach September 10, 2014 – 7:07 am

Tough choice for Progressives: stand with Michael Moore or Obama?

(Hollywood Reporter) Michael Moore sees President Obama’s legacy as set. The progressive documentary filmmaker couldn’t help but express his disappointment with the legislative accomplishments of the politician.

“When the history is written of this era, this is how you’ll be remembered: he was the first black president,” Moore said during a discussion at The Hollywood Reporter’s video lounge at the Toronto Film Festival.

“OK, not a bad accomplishment, but that’s it,” the director said. “That’s it, Mr. Obama. 100 years from now, ‘he was the first black American that got elected president’ and that’s it. Eight years of your life and that’s what people are going to remember. Boy, I got a feeling, knowing you, that — you’d probably wish you were remembered for a few other things, a few other things you could’ve done.”

“So, it is, on that level, a big disappointment,” Moore said.

Is Moore correct? Possibly? There are many things Obama might be remembered for. Increasing the national debt by over 7 trillion dollars (so far). Hyper-partisanship. Doing all he can to avoid doing the job he campaigned for twice. Golfing. Golfing immediately after giving a statement about an American beheaded by ISIS. Presiding over an economy in the doldrums. Leading from behind. Refusing to get behind rising democracy in the Middle East. Yammering on about income inequality while enriching the 1%. The list of Bad Things goes on and on.

It will be interesting to see how history remembers Obama. Obvioiusly, Moore wanted more far, far left Progressive policies enacted.

Foreigner Hiring Surges Under Obama

By William Teach September 10, 2014 – 6:49 am

It’s probably raaaaacist to even mention this, but Dick Morris brings the story

(The Hill) Amid the media focus on the basic data in the August jobs report — that the economy “added” 143,000 jobs — is the figure that will underscore the Republican efforts to take the Senate.

During the month of August, the economy added about 659,000 jobs that went to foreign-born Americans (naturalized citizens, green card holders and illegal immigrants combined). At the same time, it lost about 643,000 jobs that had been held by native-born Americans.

Indeed, since President Obama took office, the number of foreign-born Americans who have jobs has risen by 2.9 million while the number of domestically born Americans who are employed has grown by only 1.2 million.

In other words, about three out of four jobs created during the Obama presidency went to immigrants.

When the president was inaugurated in 2009, 14.9 percent of all employed Americans had been born outside of the 50 states. At this point, the number has risen to 16.8 percent.

What does all this really mean?

The average American worker might not know these numbers (they are not publicized by the liberal media), but he feels the data in his gut. He is coming to realize that there will be no income growth or real employment increase, unless the U.S. limits immigration.

The immigration issue has now morphed into the economic issue and the terror issue.

Our wide-open back border is encouraging both wage stagnation and joblessness in the United States and inviting terrorists to cross over and to create havoc in our country.

Team Obama and the Democrats couldn’t care less about these and other issues. All they want are new Democrat voters.

Crossed at Right Wing News.

The Majority Of Americans Already Consider Obama’s Presidency A SCOAMF

By William Teach September 9, 2014 – 7:12 pm

Jimmy Carter just fist bumped himself in the mirror

(Washington Post) A majority of Americans and even many Democrats consider President Obama’s tenure to be a “failure,” according to a new poll from the Washington Post and ABC News.

The poll shows Americans say 52-42 that Obama has been more of a failure than a success. Among registered voters, the gap is even bigger — at 55-39 — with four in 10 (41 percent) saying they “strongly” believe Obama has been a failure.

Those saying Obama has been a failure include one in four Democrats (25 percent), nearly three in 10 liberals (29 percent) and the vast, vast majority of conservative Republicans (92 percent). Nearly one in five liberals (18 percent) say they feel “strongly” that Obama has been a failure.

Of course, the WP makes sure we know we shouldn’t read too much into the numbers, cause waaaarblegarble and Obama adulation.

MichelleFood: School kids Can’t Even Buy Tic Tacs

By William Teach September 9, 2014 – 4:41 pm

Thanks, Michelle

School nutrition experts in Nebraska are struggling to comply with new federal snack regulations championed by First Lady Michelle Obama. (snip)

Zipay told KETV.com the new rules not only greatly reduce the available snack options schools can offer to students, they defy the concept of moderation that’s important for students to learn.

“I want kids to feel like they can have an apple one day and a Snicker’s bar the next. And that’s OK,” she said. “You cannot buy a Tic Tac in a Nebraska school, I checked.”

Meanwhile, Michelle and Barack fail to eat the same slop as school kids.

Make sure to see the photo used at the link.

Darn it: Greenhouse gas levels in atmosphere hit new high and temps still refuse to rise

By William Teach September 9, 2014 – 12:21 pm

Bummer

(Yahoo News) Surging levels of carbon dioxide sent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to a new record in 2013, while oceans, which absorb the emissions, have become more acidic than ever, the UN said on Tuesday.

“We know without any doubt that our climate is changing and our weather is becoming more extreme due to human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels,” said Michel Jarraud, the head of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) that released a report on the issue on Tuesday.

And still Warmists won’t give up fossil fuels usage themselves.

“We are running out of time,” he warned.

We’ve been hearing that for decades.

Concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane and nitrous oxide all broke fresh records in 2013, said the report.

Global concentrations of CO2, the main culprit in global warming, soared to 396 parts per million last year, or 142 percent of pre-industrial levels — defined as before 1750.

And yet, by all real world data measurements, there has been no statistically significant warming anywhere between 12 and 26 years. Not happening at surface level, lower atmosphere, sea surface, upper atmosphere, tropics. Until the data is massaged, of course. Warmist computer models are failures.

When It Comes To Obama’s New Climate Rules, Guess Who Wins The Most?

Is it those women, treated like hothouse flowers in need of rescuing by Warmists, who are constantly held up as being victims of “climate change”? Kids? Animals? Nope

US climate policy winners and losers: lawyers come out on top

In the wake of the EPA’s clean power plan, a host of lawsuits indicate that the costs and benefits of President Obama’s climate initiatives will not be shared equally

There will be some other winners and losers, such as “clean energy” companies, who’ll repeat the rewards of tax subsidies and loans (before going out of business after hiring a tenth of the workers originally proposed). They’ll be winners. Losers will be companies like coal companies. Oh, and the American people, who will see their cost of living skyrocket. And then

Regardless of the long-term effects of the EPA’s power-sector proposal, it’s increasingly clear who its first beneficiaries will be: lawyers. The EPA already faces a lawsuit filed last month by a dozen heavily coal-reliant states. Murray Energy, the largest privately held coal-mining company in the country, filed suit in March.

As such litigation illustrates, the impact of Obama’s climate initiatives will play out over time, and not for the benefit of “all of the above”. And, as similar lawsuits will undoubtedly work their way across several affected industries, it’s clear that the struggle for climate resilience will, at least to some extent, play out in the courts.

The policies will make it much, much easier to sue. So far, most “climate change” lawsuits are either dropped or lose in court. Now, the lawyers, who are big donors to Democrats and Democrat causes, will be big, big winners. Surprise!
