The Wind Power Shuck

Blast from the past. 2010:

Barry and his party would have us believe they can tax coal power plants out of business and we’ll all get by on wind and solar power. Uh, huh. Except for people in the snow belt:

“Minnesota invested itself in alternative energy sources years ago, and so the revelation that the state spent $3.3 million on eleven wind turbines hardly qualifies as news. However, the fact that they don’t work in cold weather does.”

Well, the state can always sue the manufacturer. Hee. And Minnesotans can be thankful they still have coal-power electricity to keep them warm. So far, anyhow.

“Not true”

Justice Alito gets the headlines the day after Barry’s interminable SOTU speech for mouthing a silent “not true” as the president assaulted a Supreme Court decision he didn’t like, with the court sitting in front of him. His party cheered. They’re as dumb as he is. What a windbag. Three more years.

UPDATE:  The voters mouth their own “not true” to Barry’s alleged spending freeze. They’ve got his number. All talk and no action. And, he lies like a rug.

Our 401Ks will tank again

Thanks a heap, Mr. President. You and your anti-business party are really tops at prolonging this recession. My 401K pension was almost back to where it was before last year’s big plunge. Then you had to go and take swipes at the banking industry and Wall Street while your tax plans remain uncertain. Now our 401ks are headed for the cellar again. And you wonder why you’re losing independent voters. Duh.

When Interpol comes calling

It can, you know. And when government can, it usually does. A 1983 federal executive order by President Reagan limited International Police operations in the U.S. No more. Barry changed it a week before Christmas. Interpol (aka the Global Police) can now operate here with complete autonomy. Your Bill of Rights will not apply.

The Green Jobs schuck

"…here in CA the Bay Area is the reputed leader, with some supposed 30K plus ‘Green Jobs.’ So, what is a green job? The kid driving the curb side recycling truck – ‘green job.’ The bum off the street hired to sort garbage on a conveyer at the ‘transfer facility.’ Green job. Meanwhile, auto workers are laid off due to a plant closure, because complying with draconian CO2 caps is more expensive than shutting down and opening a new plant in Texas or overseas."

As Steve Sadlov at Fresh Bilge concludes: Point pistol at foot. Pull trigger.

Change you can believe in

Meanwhile, Barry says nevermind the busted national debt ceiling. We must create a whole new and expensive health care bureaucracy for the government to avoid going bankrupt. Got that?

EPA: air is a pollutant

Corruption and elitism is steadily undermining the populace’s respect for the federal government. Stupidity won’t help:

"Carbon dioxide, which has existed as a major component of Earth’s atmosphere for billions of years — and which is necessary for plant growth — is now a declared pollutant."

Let the lawsuits and judicial stays begin. This one is going to be very hard to enforce. We may finally see widespread refusal to obey, as the feds seize the means of production and the national economy grinds to a halt. Cash and barter, anyone?
