President Obama begged voters to back his vision of an oil-free future for America.
There will come a day when we will wean ourselves from this fuel of the past, Obama proclaimed. Reliance on oil-based fuels has lulled us into lives of gluttony and waste. We have gotten soft because we drive when we should walk. We have gotten lazy because its easier to turn up the thermostat than to put on a sweater.
There are environmentally-friendly ways for us to live, the president continued. I see a future when mighty vessels powered by the wind carry goods and people to distant destinations. I see a harmonious communal lifestyle where body heat is more effectively deployed to warm our homes and work places. I see a people content to live more naturally, more humbly without the unnecessary frills we have been brainwashed to want.
Of course, creating this utopia wont be easy. The president acknowledged that sacrifices would have to be made. Right now, too many of us are hooked on oil, Obama said. Breaking this addiction will be costly and painful. My Republican opponents are seeking to exploit your addiction by offering policies that will make oil cheaper and more plentiful. But Im asking you to reject their siren song. Be strong. Help me build an oil-free future for our country.

And soon Ubama will be a “President of the past.”
If he did,he has LOST his mind! He wants us to go back to 1700s.
I hope there is tape of this.
Apparently the “semi news/semi satire” under the headline eluded you...
The Republicans need to use this sound bite in a commercial: "Mr. Obama, contrary to what you think, the American people do not consider the use of oil to be an "addiction." They are not addicts. Yes, the Republicans are offering policies to make it cheaper and more plentiful."
Yes, I know, satire.
The sub-elitists will think their condos will be heated and cooled by pixie dust and unicorn skittle poop.
The real elitists - nomenklatura - will have their dachas heated and cooled as they see fit - just ask Comrade AlGore.
I saw that after my post. It still wouldn’t suprise me if obama said it.
Decades old data indicates a narrow temperatue range for human comfort which allows for increased levels of production for instance. Unfortunately these conditions rarely exist in nature for an extended period of time. There is no justification not to create these conditions for people none! There is only a belief in a false religion of gaia worship.
Well, this part is accurate. We ARE soft and lazy compared to people a century ago.
After you have destroyed Capitalism, the humans that are still alive will be rubbing sticks together and using bones for the worship of the devil.
Well, this part is accurate. We ARE soft and lazy compared to people a century ago.
Popcorn is popped John, sitting back and watching the thread fireworks.
