Barack Obama - Most Effective President Ever !!!
The man says he wants to make something happen, and by golly, it happens.
Here's The Teleprompter Jesus, in the flesh, talking about how he's going to make you pay more at the pump so you'll stop buying SUV's and become more fuel-efficient.
Go here to read a summary of the mindset. Back in the day, someone would come out with a new product, and if it was any good it would catch on, and the old way would slowly die.
Contrast that approach with the one used in the Year Of Our Lord 2012, where new product-makers lobby Washington for subsidies, Washington mandates their use, Washington punishes their competitors (see LightSquared), and Obama then forces you to use the new product made by people who owe their very existence to Obama.
It's like watching that wasp on Animal planet, the one that stings and paralyzes a caterpillar and drags it into its nest so the baby wasps can feast until they're grown. In a way, it's beautiful.

Pass it so we can see what's in it, Write it so the author can read it, Re-educate us so we will swallow it.
Here's House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on ObamaCare® explaining that we had to pass the ObamaCare® bill to see what is in it.
But wait....Here's Senator Max Baucus affirming that he wrote the Healthcare bill, but hasn't really, like, read it:
Yep. Politicians don't write laws. Lobbyists do. And they have never, ever had such a flock of sheep just waiting to be trimmed.
Finally, here's Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, talking to ABC News Radio:
Finally, here is one last video. If you're an American taxpayer, you paid for it, and it features a cross-section of America promoting some ultra-wholesome Big Brotherism. I didn't spot an Apache Bricklayer or a Transvestite Blacksmith, but all other categories of folks are covered.
This thing will live forever.
As long as people like to laugh, they will play this video. In my retirement, I want to set up a theatre to play "An Inconvenient Truth", "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", and this government video, every weekend at midnight, for the edification of the young.
Lord have mercy, historians and economists are going to have fun with this thing:
But wait....Here's Senator Max Baucus affirming that he wrote the Healthcare bill, but hasn't really, like, read it:
Baucus replied that if Libby residents (his townhall meeting audience) assembled an economic development plan, he would do what he could to help, and he took credit for “essentially” writing the health care bill that passed the Senate.
“I don’t think you want me to waste my time to read every page of the health care bill. You know why? It’s statutory language,” Baucus said. “We hire experts.”
Yep. Politicians don't write laws. Lobbyists do. And they have never, ever had such a flock of sheep just waiting to be trimmed.
Finally, here's Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, talking to ABC News Radio:
“Unfortunately, there still is a great deal of confusion about what is in [the reform law] and what isn’t,” Sebelius told ABC News Radio in an interview Monday.No, no, no....you guys are doing just fine. Keep talking, keep talking. We were supposed to pass the bill to see what was in it, but they guy who "wrote" the bill says that it isn't done yet because it's still being massaged by lobbyists and lawyers, but one day soon, ObamaCare® will be revealed in all its glory.
With several vulnerable House Democrats touting their votes against the bill, and Republicans running on repeal, Sebelius said “misinformation given on a 24/7 basis” has led to the enduring opposition nearly six months after the lengthy debate ended in Congress.
“So, we have a lot of reeducation to do,” Sebelius said.

On the harmful effects of Global Cooling
From the Los Angeles Times:
Fort Worth's summer has been downright pleasant so far.
I hope this isn't anything we need to start worrying about. A lot of people have spent a lot of money and time lobbying Congress to achieve this kind of weather, lobbying for carbon emission quotas, cap and tax schemes, perpetutal motion machines, and fans blown by unseen fairy flatulence.
Unfortunately, none of those schemes are in place. Yet. It would be a shame if we got the good effects before the good causes were put into place by our government. Less-informed people might start thinking that there was no relationship between our behavior and the weather.
For tens of thousands of years, superstitious people have believed that when we anger The Gods, it causes changes in the weather. The spring rains don't come. The corn harvest is puny. It must be because of something that we did.
Therefore we do rain dances, throw virgins into the volcano, make chicken sacrifices to The Corn God, put a carbon-trading scam in place, purchase a Prius, or pray. They are equally effective.
If earth continues cooling, people will stop feeling guilty and will stop making sacrifices toThe Government The Weather Gods. Well, God is not mocked.
Senator James Inhofe will be punished for allowing his family to build this obscene structure during Washington D.C.'s Global Cooling scare last year. (Luke 17:2 "It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin.") You can look it up !
Pray for heat. Pray, pray, pray. All bad things should always be our fault. Repent. Sacrifice. For we are guilty, guilty, guilty of doing things that are bad, bad, bad.
I'm gonna go sacrifice a goat. Have a good day ! (But don't you dare feel good about it.)
Unusually cold temperatures in Southern California continued, with Los Angeles International Airport setting a record low on Friday.Can we say "coolest summer ever" for L.A. ? Or is it too early?
LAX got to only 67 degrees, breaking a record set in 1926, according to the National Weather Service.
