Obama’s path toward energy poverty
Washington Times, by Tom Harris

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/30/2013 9:04:10 PM

In his inaugural address last week, President Obama demonstrated that he is putting people at risk with misguided climate and energy policies. If there really were an increased threat from “raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms,” as the president indicated in his speech, then America would need more, not fewer sources of reliable and affordable energy to prepare for and cope with these hazards. More electricity would be needed to handle greater demands for air conditioning and heating. More power would be required to irrigate drought-ridden lands, build dikes,

Comments:
The constant push by 0bama for green energy is a dictator´s dream. China is building 500 coal plants in the next ten years and they are being shut down here. It´s a crime what he is doing to this country.

What scares me more than Obama is the utter stupidity of the American electorate. To think the majority of voters are so oblivious to their surroundings as to think a 2nd Obama term would be any different from the 1st. Add to that the supposedly 3 million republicans who didn`t bother to vote, what were `they` thinking?

There was no "election". It was all for show to keep the people calm . There was never any doubt that obama would win. Fraud.

No problem. People who can´t afford the high utility rates will be subsidized.

In order to get the subsidy (and, by the way, a free Obamaphone), all you´ll have to do is show your EBT.

In defending their pro-Obama views, Lefties we know complain about decades-old friendships being smashed by political differences.

That´s true! We no longer care to hear them praising that Marxist traitor.

Stinky the Gunrunner´s energy policies can only be understood by watching the 9/11 videos. Terrorists only need to know enough to crash the plane into towers. They don´t need to know enough to land it. So goes Stinky the Gunrunner.

The only policy the Left is capable of is redistribution. They pretend it´s wealth redistribution, but in reality it´s misery redistribution.

I got some flyer from an energy company I never heard of touting ´green energy´. If I want it, I have to pay more for it. No thanks. That flyer went in the trash.

$54 million: Price for just one
year of Obamacare ´navigators´
Washington Examiner, by Paul Bedard    Original Article

The Obama administration has set aside $54 million in federal grants to fund the first year of Obamacare "navigators," the community activists, union members and health professionals who will be paid to help an estimated 7 million Americans sign up for health exchanges nationwide. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, which will run Obamacare, said that those seeking grants must apply by June 7. The health care program kicks in Oct. 1, when Americans can sign up for health care coverage to begin Jan, 1. "Navigators will be an important resource for the millions of

Frustrated gun control proponents are determined to pass stricter gun laws, but they increasingly turn to graphic depictions of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting to push forward their agenda. “I walked the halls where these unspeakable acts took place,” Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday during a gun control speech. “I saw the dried blood on the walls. I saw the horrific crime scene photos.” It appears that Holder believes that the acts themselves are "unspeakable" but not the gory details of the aftermath. Neither does Vice President Joe Biden, who implemented a graphic approach while making

   

 



 
California Considers Mandated
Insurance for ´Gay Infertility´

For decades, members of the left have insisted that the right is fighting a war on science. But when it comes to the issues of abortion and homosexuality, it is the left that fights a consistent and ridiculous war with reality. This week, Wesley Smith of the Weekly Standard reported that California would be considering AB 460, a bill that would mandate group insurance coverage for so-called gay and lesbian "infertility." What in the world does that bizarre phrase mean? It doesn´t mean situations in which two members of a lesbian couple are both infertile and incapable

Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz made a special request of the United States Capitol Police for her staff members to be treated well during sequester: "But also just to put in a good word for the frustration that our staff is feeling in the Cannon tunnel," she said. "We´re still in the midst of the Spring Break season and the lines are very, very long, and with the closure--again, when we´re in session, so not just doors, but magnetometers, having a staff only magnetometer open in the Cannon tunnel as much as possible so there

The Washington Post’s Ed O’Keefe and David A. Fahrenthold share an interesting detail about the background checks compromise reached by Sen. Joe Manchin D-W.V. yesterday. For Manchin, that agreement was the payoff from months of relationship-building with Republicans, including nights of pizza and beer on a senator-stuffed boat called the Black Tie. The final deal was worked out over the past week, and concluded late Tuesday with a huddle at a rooftop birthday party for TV host Joe Scarborough. There, Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) agreed to support the proposal — but to skip the news conference

Mediaite’s AJ Delgado returned to Sean Hannity‘s radio show on Wednesday afternoon, where she questioned, in part, why African-Americans support the Democrats in overwhelming numbers, when Democratic policies have done nothing, according to Delgado, to improve the economic conditions of black voters’ lives. Marc Lamont Hill clashed with Delgado over that point, but conceded that there is a “sense of paternalism” in the Democratic party for African-Americans. After some back-and-forth about the White House having parties while the economy is still doing poorly, which Delgado called “insensitive,” Hannity brought up Senator Rand Paul giving a speech at Howard University,

NBC Meet the Press host David Gregory reportedly threw quite the tantrum on Tuesday over a charity event held on a street near his home that has temporarily caused a shortage of on-street parking. The Washington Post´s Reliable Source column has the story (emphasis mine): Note to David Gregory: If cars are parked in front of your house for a month, send someone else to complain about it. The “Meet the Press” host made a scene Tuesday when he lit into organizers of the D.C. Design House, located this year on Foxhall Road.

Rush Limbaugh is the most listened to talk radio host in America. Yet for at least the second year in a row, he´s been left off the Hollywood Reporter´s "35 Most Powerful People in Media" list. Those that made the list include MSNBC´s Mika Brzezinski, Rachel Maddow, and Joe Scarborough. Are these three folks really more powerful than Limbaugh? Apparently so are Stephen Colbert, Anderson Cooper, Bob Costas, Katie Couric, Jimmy Fallon, Piers Morgan, Kelly Ripa, Howard Stern, Michael Strahan, Jon Stewart, Wendy Williams, and Anna Wintour.

In a speech that addressed youth violence in Chicago, First Lady Michelle Obama compared herself to Hadiya Pendleton, a 15-year-old girl murdered soon after attending President Obama´s Second Inauguration. "Hadiya Pendleton was me, and I was her," said the first lady. "Thousands of children in this city live in neighborhoods where a funeral for a teenager is considered unfortunate, but not unusual; where wandering onto the wrong block or even just standing on your own front porch can mean putting yourself at risk," Michelle Obama told the Chicago crowd, according to a transcript provided by the White House.

Politico’s Mike Allen reported this morning that MSNBC has hired the Democratic National Committee’s director of video production to become a producer for one of the cable network’s weekend political talk shows. DNC video production director Anne Thompson was reportedly given a farewell party at the DNC, replete with ice cream and refreshments, as she sets out to become segment producer on Up with Steve Kornacki, MSNBC’s new weekend show. As Politico reported, Thompson was behind dozens of the DNC’s 2012 election videos and ads, notably including the parodic song, “Mitt Romney & Paul Ryan:

President Barack Obama talked again in the Rose Garden Wednesday about making work pay off, even as his $3.77 trillion budget proposal calls for capping the amount of tax deferred retirement savings for high earners. “To make sure hard work is rewarded, we’ll build new ladders of opportunity for the middle class for anybody who is willing to work hard to climb it,” Obama said, speaking of another aspect of the tax and spending plan. “So we’ll partner with 20 of our communities hit hardest by recession to help them improve housing

Mother Jones’ Source May Be

Left-wing magazine Mother Jones made news this week with a report based on a secret recording of a Feb. 2 meeting of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell with campaign strategists. Federal and state law prohibits publication of information acquired through secret recording, but a 2001 Supreme Court ruling gives publishers like Mother Jones a get-out-of-jail-free card. But whoever taped the private conversation can’t wiggle off the hook so easily. Whoever bugged the meeting room or secretly placed a recording device will be in serious legal trouble — unless he or she was one of the strategists.

The murder trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell largely is being ignored by the mainstream media, even in the face of grisly testimony, such as what we heard yesterday. Life News reports: ...a former employee described how she heard a baby scream during a live-birth abortion. Abortion clinic employee Sherry West described an incident which "really freaked (her) out" and related to the jury how she heard a child who was born alive following an abortion scream.

West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller, one of the towering architects of Obamacare, on Tuesday openly criticized program managers for not moving quickly enough to build the system, warning that if it gets off to a bumpy start it will just get worse. Decrying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as way too complex, he warned the acting Medicare director that Obamacare is "so complicated and if it isn´t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse."

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

State Attorney General Bob Ferguson on Tuesday filed a consumer protection lawsuit against Arlene’s Flowers & Gifts, a Richland florist that refused to supply flowers to the same-sex marriage of a longtime customer. Ferguson said he sent a March 28 letter to owner Barronelle Stutzman asking her to reconsider and supply flowers to customer Robert Ingersoll. Through an attorney, Stutzman declined to change her position.“As Attorney General, it is my job to enforce the laws of the state of Washington,” said Ferguson. “Under the Consumer Protection Act, it is unlawful to discriminate

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion. "The politics has been relentless and that continues," Sebelius said. "There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"

As we reported this weekend, liberals have been seething over the inclusion of the chained CPI in Obama´s budget, which they see as a huge betrayal by the Democratic president. This week, progressive groups, including MoveOn, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, and Democracy for America, have mounted "emergency" online campaigns against the proposal, accusing Obama of
