Posted on 04/22/2009 4:20:53 PM PDT by anniegetyourgun

Obama tries to recruit Americans into the Green religion by saying Americans don’t want to just pay taxes, but also want be apart of the environmental ‘mission.’

President Obama discussing his energy plan in Newton, Iowa - Tuesday, April 22, 2009:

Obama: Americans Don’t Want to Just Pay Taxes, They Also Want to be on an Environmental ‘Mission’

“We got to get everybody involved in this process. I don’t accept the conventional wisdom that suggests that the American people are unable or unwilling to participate in a national effort to transform the way we use energy.”

“I don’t believe that the only thing folks are capable of doing is just paying their taxes. I disagree. I think the American people are ready to be apart of a mission - I believe that.”

Obama says: We are not a Christian nation.....we are instead a nation of earth worshippers.

Good, then I have a plan that will make everyone happy.

Why don’t we load up all the environMentalists, and send them on an environmental mission to Pluto.

Render unto Ceasar what belongs to Ceasar...

I shall render unto God, what belongs to God.

And that is the “mission” I am on.

Fascinating insight into the opinion of the libs about the American people, or “folks”:

“I don’t believe that the only thing folks are capable of doing is just paying their taxes.”

He’s claiming to disbelieve such “conventional wisdom” but he lets slip that it is considered conventional wisdom among the left that the only think the productive people are CAPABLE of doing is just paying their taxes.

What about the people who were using old tires as smoke signals, sitting around in their idling Diesel pickups running the AC, while grilling the pork sausages on charcoal grills?

Each of us celebrates in our own way.

Here is to the production of as much CO2 as needed to provide plant food for our poor starving green growing plants.
