Obama Stakes Final 2 Years on Climate Change
ABC News ^ | November 18, 2014 | By JOSH LEDERMAN

With limited time still in power, President Barack Obama is staking his final two years on climate change, pushing the issue to the front of his agenda as he seeks to leave an imprint on the world that will endure after he's gone.

It's a strategy rooted not only in Obama's long-stated concern about global warming, but also in political reality.

The emphasis on climate isn't all by choice.

Although Obama has long sought to rally action against climate change, White House aides say the issue has become even more attractive after the election because it's one where Obama has considerable leverage to act without Congress.

How is it that we are still a country after 6 years of this guy? If we make it two more, that will be proof positive that God exists and has something special planned for this country.

the budget of the EPA last year was bigger than the 2013 GNP of India.

I’m completely serious.

but that doesn’t quantify the true total cost of the EPA because their job is apparently to go around and make sure people don’t make stuff or make less of what they make, so in fact the cost of the EPA to the America is much, much higher than that.

So-called climate change is how he’ll ram through whatever he can to further destroy a free America.

President Pants-On-Fire doesn’t care about anything else.

Øh, I wish it was *just* climate change. Unfortunately, it is one of probably a hundred of republic-breaking issues.

I thought it was immigration. No, wait, it was jobs. No, it was minimum wage on which he decided to focus like a laser beam.

King Obozo has the learning ability of a Nancy Pelosi and the timing of an Al Gore.

We have experienced no noteworthy global warming since 1998 and we are
now in the throes of one of the earliest and coldest winters seen in many years.
Yet The Shyster King is still trying to sell his Man-Made Climate Change Snake Oil.

The issue is attractive because there is no particular way in which he can be shown to be a stinking liar.

You make it sound like he has ADHD.

For Muslims, Marxists, and community organizers, there's always something wrong and more to change just for the sake of it. Nothing is ever good enough. They call that "progress."

Hitler was “elected” Chancellor in 1933.

In September 1939 he had totally “transformed” Germany and Invaded Poland.

6 Years.

Just Sayin’.

For Marxists, a state of constant revolution is necessary. The revolution never ends.
